NYC Barcelona and huge pots

Hi

Ok ok, it seems I have a lot to talk about with you guys.

First, I will be in NYC (02/28 to 03/08). We planned this today with my brother (his birthday present from me) and everything looks awesome. We booked 8 nights at Michelengelo hotel (http://www.michelangelohotel.com) so we will be in the center of Manhattan. If you got any tips or advice to give me, just lemme know. By the way, I might go in Québec, Canada to meet a fullring player, LSP16. If you are in the area, tell me and we will plan something.

Barcelona. I will be there from 03/08 to 03/11. I booked tickets for FC Barcelona / Lyon (champion's league game). It is to be an epic game. 3 night booked at Icaria hotel (http://www.hotelicariabarcelona.com/fr/index.php).

To conclude this short entry. Tonight, I took a shoot at 25/50 because there was a fish. It went... very well.

This is amazing lol, my biggest pots were mostly 2k (and some 4k pot at 10/20) and I'm here, sitting at a 5k table, playing a 600bb pot against a retard. I can't believe it yet.

Anyway, I ended up 20k up at 25/50. I thank my backers (artanis and my coach) for their truth.

Comment as-tu rencontré Artanis ?

I don't exactly remember what my bankroll was but if you play poker for a living, I would recommend 60 buy in at least.

I met artanis at 100nl, we would play together back in the old time and he gave me his msn just to talk between reg. Since, we have moved up through limits together and kept in touch more or less regularly.
