How to earn $5000 in one night

They’re very clever really. All I wanted to do was play some poker. Me and Jordan both. Went looking for some kind of way to play it over the nextwork. It would appear that no such way exists.

So, we decided to try one of the many online poker sites, good old pokerroom.com. Nifty little client to download which looks cool while you’re playing, and they even let you play with fake money, $1000 worth per day.

But still, there was no way we could play in the same game, it just wouldn’t let us. Probably some kind of anti-cheating device, seeing as we’re both in the same house, to make sure we aren’t working together or whatever.

So we played seperately.

Within an hour, Jordan was out. No fake money left.

But he wanted to keep playing, and so was tempted to purchase real credits and continue gambling with those.
I don’t think he did, but could never be sure.

By the end of the hour, I had actually made over $5000.

I figure, that’s better than I do in about 4 months, so things are definitely looking up.

I may as well invest a load of money into real credits, and then within a few hours it will be 5x as much.

Of course, that idea ended tonight when I over $3000 (of the fake money) in one game.

I suppose the idea was too good to be true.

But really, I won a lot, Jordan lost a lot, and we both wanted to buy real credits? These guys have a good business plan!

The desire to play poker hasn’t gone yet…

Expect a poker night soon. With real money.

Real chips.

And a physical presence in the room.

Apparently I should write in this thing again.

It’s been so long, I can’t even think of what to write about.

I remember when I was updating regularly, I wrote about anything.

I think I even posted about getting a new desk or what have you.

Still, I guess it’s worth a shot, could be fun.

First few posts may be a bit boring while I figure out my style again.

But I may as well try.
