It's been a while but I've been busy. Following on from my previous post, I did indeed make GoldStar in the rather spiffy PokerStars promotion. And it paid immediate dividends too. I qualified for one of the weekly VIP tournaments and finished 8th out of five thousand or so opponents. This added $350 or so to my account which is always nice.
I then hardly played a hand for two months.
Other stuff got in the way. Mainly upgrading my Dumbarton FC wesbite, On The Rocks to work with Joomla 1.5. I had migrated my previous lovingly hand-crafted database code into Joomla 1.0.x a few years ago. And then ignored it. Joomla 1.0.x has now been retired so it was time that I moved it up to Joomla 1.5. Unfortunately, Joomla 1.5 is significantly different from its predecessor and it took me a while to rewrite the code. But, as of Sunday evening, the new version of OTR is up and running. I've still got tonnes of stuff to fix and add but it's a start.
Now that that is out the way and the site I build for my mum is up and running, I've been able to get some more poker in.
My adventures in the world of heads up SNGs continue. I've stepped up the $5s again and I'm playing much better although I've still got a way to go before I recoup my earlier disastrous time at the $5s.
ROI percentage is around -14%, much better than the -40% of a couple of months ago.
