My internet connection went down for about a week. Actually it was fine during the day but around 8 PM or so my internet connection starts to slow down to a crawl and then comes to a halt until the next morning around 8 or 9 AM it gets connected again. This went on for a week until finally somebody took a look at it.
My poker bank account is at .19 cents. Ha ha. But I'm back in the game doing tournaments and some fast action at a 6-person table Texas Hold'em where I seem to win quite well and consistently sometimes doubling and tripling my initial chips stack starting at .40 cents.
At any rate, I'm back in the game and will update when I can.
Patience my grasshopper.

Cash Win Update 3
I did very well tonight playing against 5000 players in Absolute Poker no cash (free) NL Texas Hold 'em and took 3rd place which netted me a free cash win of $10.49. Also, since I placed in the top 5 I'll be able to play in this Sunday's $1000 Absolute Poker Challenge.
My net cash right now is at $10.95. Will look for more 0.50 to $1.00 Poker tourneys. And maybe one or two $2.00 tourney ones throughout this week. Need to keep my spending low while I continue to try and accumulate more extra cash. It has been one month now. The toughest part of getting some cash win without spending one dime is to play against those 3000 to 5000 players during those Texas Hold 'em freeroll tourneys. This has been my best win to date placing 3rd out of exactly 5000 players.

Update on poker wins
Played in some 15 or 20 tourney games since the last time I blogged last week about my win. I managed to get into between 100th and 350th place several times against some 3000 to 5000 players. Now I managed to place 27th which earned me fifty cents. Whoohoo!
Ok. Since the last win I played four 0.25 cents games and didn't get anywhere. But after today I got a little something to try again at those cash games.
Total cash in bank: 0.83 cents.
Next cash game: 0.50 to enter.
Cash payouts? Don't know yet.
I'll let you know.
Patience grasshopper.
A Mystery Poker Man's Update....
I did pretty well on the 0.50 cent NL Texas Hold e'm game. There were 142 players. Started at 3 AM in the morning. I figured I'd take the opportunity with less players around so early in the morning. The game took me 3 hours and 50 minutes to play til I busted out. I came in 5th place. The cash payout was $4.19. My account balance is now at $4.52. I will now decide to continue with either the 0.25, 0.50 or $1.00 game. Need to be mindful of stretching out my cash wins as much as possible and weigh it against the listed payouts.
So far so good 28 days into this "zero cash" poker challenge.
More Update...
Instead of .50 games I played four $1.00 games. I busted out in all four of them. Back to those freeroll tourneys again.
