'A good hand can win you the pot, but an iron fist will carry the pot home!' (even if it's not won :f_biggrin:; that's Paddy Power's slogan).
It's useful to create habits that stick, and poker sites willingfully help us create poker ones :f_rolleyes:... in my case, that's the habit of raking €400 a day ![]()
In case someone is unaware, Paddy Power is holding Iron Man VII on Feb 1 - Mar 2, awarding cash prizes for meeting point targets on a specified number of days. The target relevant to me is the top one - 10K Power Points a day ($500 / €400 / £334 in rake / fees) on 20 / 25 / 30 days, resulting in an award of $3K / $4K / (Irish Open package worth) $6K.
I'll most likely have to reserve some days off for 'the real life'
but be pretty angry with myself if I don't make at least 20 such days.
The games will be mostly jackpot SnGs, with Twister mixed in to sustain a stable table count, and a bit of cash PLO50-100.
Posts not related to the volume should go rather to my good not-so-old blog than here.
There will be a 'dress rehearsal' tonight, more precisely, I have a 'deadline' to rake €437 till today's UK midnight

Let immortal classic be the soundtrack. (I do have to get back into the black after this January
)
Go!!!
Final update: poor sleep allowed me to do merely 10 days x €100+ rake, though there were four €200+ days too. So I was awarded only $165 as a result. GG.
