The UIGEA regulations will demand that banks block “unlawful internet gambling” but there is no definition of this vague term. Banks will be forced to block millions of transactions that are not in fact illegal. As a result, you may not be able to play poker or any other game of skill online. HR 5767 will prevent this regulatory nightmare. The King amendment will force the regulatory agencies to define “unlawful internet gambling” through a formal rulemaking, with due process and opportunity for input from affected parties.
Groups that oppose your right to play poker are working to defeat this important bill. Don’t count on someone else to take action for you - call today, there’s no time to waste! |

NL100 is tough
hansen, Jun 17 2008
Looks like it will take longer then expected to get my roll back up to nl400 etc. I dont really get it, for so long ive been a winner on nl400-nl600 and now i have trouble with nl100. Not many hands i know but i still feel unsecure about my game.
I think ive been too lazy and not been following the development of online poker since the usa regulations. Do any of you have suggestions on how to get back in the game? Cardrunners/leggo obv, coaching? Anyone had sucess with a coach for several lessons etc?
First couple of days

First two days on NL100. Games are weak and pretty standard, i run hot obv.
Ill hit NL200 whenever i get between $5000 and $6000.
From NL2/4 back to NL0.5/1
hansen, Jun 13 2008
So yesterday I cashed out my entire roll except $3000 for NL100!
I was rolled for NL1000 so this might seem like the most retarded thing ever to do but the truth is that im breakeven for 2008 on NL400+. After being a winner on these limits for almost 3 years (i think) i didnt have the motivation to keep pushing myself. For me its hard to grind without a goal and when i had 100+ buyins online for the limit i played.
To regain confidence, the understanding of moneys value etc and other crap i finally decided to rebuild my roll from 'scratch'. I need to quit fucking around. Obv i made the decision and cashed out while being drunk, great. Atleast it was better then moving up in limits and being the drunk degen on 50/100.
I will keep this blog updated as often as i can with my grind back to the higher midstakes
Wish me luck
