Well what a month it has been so far, trying to make a living playing internet poker.

The month started really well with me getting to final tables of several good tournaments and winning a decent amount at the same time, but one thing you can never do with playing on the internet is to get complacent.  Why?   Because just round the corner, there is a scandi just waiting to muff you.

I was in a game yesterday where there were two All Ins so I folded my pocket Queens, thinking there had to be Aces or Kings out there as it was deep in a tournament, and surely no one would risk their tourney at that late stage with garbage.

Wrong !! It was K9 v K8 and my Queens would have stood up and I would of been chip leader.  Having said that, I would do exactly the same again. You have to ask yourself: “What am I ahead of?” and with two all ins in a big pot you have to assume you are behind and put your hand down.

And that has been the story of my month!! However, I am in the final of  the Vegas game tonight, so hopefully I will get through and make an average month into a good month.  Good luck at the tables, guys.
