Ladbrokes European Ladies Championship
Mood:  celebratory
Topic: Poker

I'm so excited right now...I've been playing the $5 satellites to get into the weekly final on and off for about a month now.  Today, I won a seat to the daily final and a poker friend (and fellow cat) and I won a seat to the weekly finals which is worth $270....the winner of that will be given a $2500 package into the European Ladies Championship in London in May.  I'm so excited to play on Monday night now!!!  What a great feeling!! I'm playing pretty good poker and quite proud of myself right now!!! Also, I've met Jen Mason on there who was my favorite player in last years ELC and she's so sweet.  She has also joined my forum and I'm honored to have her as one of my first members!!!  Life is great right now!!!  See ya everyone!!

Piranha Program at Badbeat.com
Mood:  vegas lucky


Hi all.....I'm on the Piranha program (which is a $50/day program) at Badbeat.com and am playing poker on Grandslam poker building a bankroll with someone else's money.  As of yesterday I've made a profit of $125 in my first 9 days of playing.  The goal is $250 or more for the first 30 days.  If I'm successful, at the end of the month I will get 50% of my profit and be promoted to a Badbeat Trainer at a $200/day program they have.

You have to either play 3000 hands a week equalling 40 table hours or 50 sit n gos.  I'm mostly playing sit n gos.  My profit was $68.67 for week one and i only played 47 sit n gos because my internet went down on Sunday and I didn't get it back until Monday.  Also, in my first two days this week i'm in profit as well...made $24.07 on monday and over $33 last night...I'm well on my way to that $250 :)  I'll keep this updated on how I'm doing.  Thanks out to all my poker friends who have been supporting me on this.

Careybear's Battle of the Sexes Poker League
Mood:  happy
Topic: Poker

 

 Hi Poker friends!!!  I'm in the works of creating a Battle of the Sexes Poker League and will be emailing Poker Stars today about it.  I hope to start it after the Cats Vs. Hounds League is over probably on Sundays at 9 p.m. GMT or 4 p.m. EST for my U.S. players!!  The format will be 10 men's only and 10 women's only sit n gos running at the same time and night. 

The scoring system will be: 

 1st - 15 pts.

2nd - 12 pts

3rd -  10 pts

4th - 8 pts

5th- 6 pts

6th - 5 pts

7th - 4 pts

8th - 3 pts

9th - 2 pts

10th - 1 pt.

 

The top 5 point scorers for both the women and men's games will play a final table after the 10 games are over.  Hopefully I can get some added money from Poker Stars or at least some swag (i.e. shirts, hats etc).  I can't wait to get this started because a lot of you out there have shown interest at my different forums I'm polling.

I'll be advertising this here, myspace, facebook and all my other sites!!!! lol

Happy Poker Playing for all of my poker playing friends!!!

Bloggers Poker Tour
Mood:  don't ask
Hi all!! Well I played in my first Blogger Poker Tour event and went out 99th...not very good. Well, I'll put it this way I was trying to get off the computer because my husband's oldest son from his first marriage was here and they wanted on the computer...simple as that. So, I didn't play as well as I could. Sorry about that Mike...I'll do better next round :) I know you'll be at the grand champions table and I hope to watch you win a place to the Aussie Millions!!!!

I haven't done too well in the last few days but I'm sure I'll come back.

Tomorrow is the big move date into our new house I can't wait!!! Finally, I know we'll be safe in a new house and we have paid 6 months in advance plus the month and a half deposit!!! Thank you tax benefits for coming just in time and thanks to all the people at my church for praying for us!! God Bless you!!!

I don't have anymore news really so I guess I should go pack some more!!!

Bye,

Carey

Ugh...oh where oh where did yesterdays entry go!!! lol
Mood:  d'oh
Hi all...I've been playing a ton at TonyG poker and it's been awesome!!!!!! I was invited to a special invitation freeroll a few weeks ago..placed in the money (a whole $3) and we (Paul and I) had it up to about $80 (i didn't see that but it's true). It's still a small site and U.S. Player friendly so I'd like to invite all my friends and new acquaintances to come play on Tony G and join our small but growing family. He's offering a whopping 50% rakeback right now (i only got in on the 33% deal)!!! Click on the banner at the right and we'll play some great poker. Oh I won a $1.50 rebuy tourney yesterday with a field of around 30 people or so (and this is a big tourney lol) and won $41.25 woohooo!!!

Also, yesterday I joined a new poker tour called the Bloggers Poker Tour because of my poker buddy Mike told me about it and I follow him around like a puppy dog when it comes to poker!! lol I can't wait to play in a tourney there because I was looking at some of the blogs and there are some smart players on there. I'm not worthy I'm not worthy..lol

Anyway, have a great week and see you on the tables.

Careybear's Poker Place
Mood:  happy
Hi all!! I've re-done and re-located my website to Angelfire at the moment until I get my own domain name and hosting. We're still looking at places to do this. I'm just happy I got it back online. I'm contacting some poker sites now to set up some freerolls. Since I'm in England some of them might be a little early for my USA friends but I'll try and make it a good time for all players. I'm excited about this because I've found some really good new sites, including Tony G, OK Usa poker, and cake and some cool 3D ones like PKR.com and 3D Poker. I'll be contacting as many of them as I can and hopefully setting something up in the next few weeks.

On the homefront we're still waiting for our tax credits so we can move out of our temporary accommodations. They have now said they have been awarded but we haven't received any of the money. The government is the same on both sides of the pond: slow and inefficient. Ah well...God will be there for us He always is.

That's all for now...talk soon!!!
