Pokerstars Update

Although in a previous blog, I mentioned that I did not like pokerstars all that much, I have been playing on that poker site quite a lot recently and have been enjoying it and have also been making a positive return on investment, which is always something you should strive towards as a self respecting poker player.

I think a lot of choosing a site is not about choosing your favourite site overall and playing there, but finding which site you best like to play S+G's on, which site is best for tourneys, freerolls, etc and playing on that site for that particular type of game (eg. $1.75, 18 player Turbos on Pokerstars)

Anyway, I noticed their battle of the planets, which seemed quite interesting, whereby you get points for finishing in the money of S+Gs and after you have finished 20 S+Gs your points are totalled up and if you are high enough you reach the leaderboard and the top 100 get money in their account and the top 10 get to play in a tournement to get even more money.

At the moment, ive got 137 points after 8 tournaments, and last week, 100th place on the leaderboard had 429 points, so I guess I have a marginal chance of making the leaderboard over the next 12 S+Gs if I can just stop bubbling! Will let you know if i ever make the Leaderboard.

One last thing, check out www.pokerweblogs.com as it is an excellent site if you are into blogs as it lists hundreds and hundreds of them (and you can also list your blog there)
