Results for August 2008 - poor
A pretty crappy month… +1600$ after playing for 61 hours is terrible.
Party 33$ MTT win with a twist
Weird situation last night. Made the final table of a ~170 man MTT on Party with a 33$ buyin - with a nice stack even. But with about a handfull of people left, I got a call and needed to go do some important family business ASAP. So there I was, with a very nice chance to take the tourney down, but really had to leave ASAP.
From there on I pushed the others to make a deal, but the stupid smallstack did not want a deal - and it was a joy to knock him out in third, so he ended up with less chips than a deal would have landed him. 
So it was not until I was heads up with a 3 to 2 chiplead, I got a deal.
Anyway, I recorded the last 13 minutes. Not so much for the poker, but more so you can see my desperation and how it worked out in the end, and I could go take care of the family business with very little delay. Keep an eye on the chat, which is least half the fun.
Enjoy!

Results for June 2008
June was a busy month with work and travel, so I only managed to fit in 42 hours of poker - and won around +2000$ - around 45$/h. Not too bad for a slow month.
Results for May 2008
After a record-breaking April with 74 hours played, May turned out to give me less time to play. But that does not matter all that much, when you run hot!
