It's going to be interesting to see how everything shakes out the rest of the year. I think US traffic will increase in the coming months as people get their Pokerstars & FTP refunds & others decide what their plan is. Idon't think many players will survive playing the merge SNGs for a living. Their ST structure doesn't allow much edge as it is & the games are ridiculously reg infested.
For those that haven't seen yet, FTP came out w/ an FAQ:

I really hope they start issuing refunds soon as I had a ton of money on their site as I was playing HU STs up to $1Ks. I still have plenty of money saved up, although a lot of it is in retirement accounts where I'd be penalized 10% for taking money out early. I don't expect to have to do that though, but I am putting off some vacations for now.
I haven't quite gotten into my regular playing schedule yet but hopefully I can do that in the next week or 2. My plan is to play mostly on Cake.
As for 2011, things had been going pretty well. I started out 16 tabling full tilt 6 man SNGs and did pretty well in January. I then ran over $41K below EV in Februrary, which was fun. I got back on track in 6 mans during March but started mixing in some HU STs around the middle of the month. At the beginning of April I started 4 tabling the HU STs full time & was crushing those. Then the FBI decided that indicting offshore poker sites was their top priority. I'm glad my country is a joke.
I decided to add some pictures at the bottom of the blog to make it a little more personal. Neither my wife or I take many pictures so I don't exactly have the best pictures on my cpu & I just quickly grabbed some pictures off of facebook. I'll probably replace some or add more periodically.
Gl at the tables,

Results: *There's a slight accounting mistake somewhere as my monthly totals add up to about $1.5K more than my yearly total.
