Blog update wickss?

[mjnumb23]

My advice to wickss has been to continue pwning omaha at the stakes he has been playing. He is making more than enough money to live on and grow his bankroll while he continues to improve and refine his game. I don't want to see him move up a level yet, and have a bad downswing wipe out half his roll. Also, when he gets back from his trip, I am going to make him start watching a sngicons video every day. There is no reason that he can't be making more at sng's. Of course, hands will continue to be posted in here by himself and others.

GoofygGoof, sensational job on the picture. That is the kind of stuff I'm talking about. People LOVE that stuff.

Lastly, I spoke to wickss briefly on the phone a little bit ago. He's flying in a small plane with his cousin to Virginia. They had landed in Indiana for fuel and lunch. He is in good spirits and eager to get back to the tables. I'm hungry, who wants pizza?

Since Wickss is away I'll make the transfer on Monday when he gets back, so he can turn it right around into an entry for the 30th. I don't like the idea of doing transfers unless the folks can confirm back right way that all went well.
Somone may have mentioned about starting the overflow list for future backing, while that might be well and good I'm not sure if the forums have rules for or against such things and I thought this was a one time deal for "fun".
However.. if Wickss, DonKing of SnG! or others want to talk via PM or email, include me in the list...
Maybe an admin here could comments on this usage of the forums issue...

Good luck to Wickss and all of us....

[/ QUOTE ]z32fanatic, wickss left this morning to go to his sister's wedding in Virginia. He will be back on Monday. We have been pm'ing bigjoe concerning difficulties in logging onto the site. He said that when wickss gets back, that he will walk him through the steps. After that, he will be doing the bulk of the blogging, and I will probably write an occasional guest blog.

There's no reason you guys couldn't be doing this while eating Papa John's.

I'm sure this has been answered but I'm not going through all 167 pages (till the weekend). Wickss, why aren't you on FTP were you can be getting some $$ back from a rakeback group? (hope i can mention this)

[/ QUOTE ]
They run less on FTP so harder to 9 table

[/ QUOTE ]
lol, there are waaay more than enough games to 9-table sngs at his level on FT.

However, judging by the pics in this thread, I doubt wickss computer would handle the infamous FT lag.

[/ QUOTE ]

yea seriously. there are plenty of $22 sngs and lower at FT. it shouldnt lag too much 9 tabling or whatever you do and the rakeback makes up for it if it does. plus a deposit bonus.

Great site for sure, if he's got any prep time for the Sunday Million: If he has access to Pokerxfactor there is a series by Rizen posted in June 2006, that is very good. Part #2 in particular he gives a little lecture on chip flow he does a great job of explaining his thought process through the entire series.

I sent mindwise a PM to see if he'd consider allowing wickss access to the Rizen videos in preparation for the big Sunday Millions next weekend. He said he'd take a look at the thread.
