Treading Water

My Chris Ferguson Challenge is just treading water for the last week or so. I have been as high as $6 and as low as .50 cents and right now it is at $3 dollars and some change. The biggest problem is I don't have the bankroll to play back at someone when they hit me with a moderate raise. I have tried to play tight and only see the flop with premium hands. Unfortunately Poker.com is ganging up on my by not giving me very many premium hands. Today I played for an hour or so and the best hands I was dealt was A/K off, two times. I wasn't dealt any big pocket pairs and I wasn't able to flop a set with my small pocket pairs. The hands I did win were with Kings and that kept me pretty much at even for the day.


I will keep trying to build my bankroll with my Challenge or will go broke trying. I can't really say I am learning much as the microstakes are unreal for people calling with crap and sucking out to win the hand. I'm hoping I can survive the microstakes and get into a little higher No Limit game where the play is not as fishy.

I am going to ask Santa Claus to bring me some Poker Videos to help me step up my game. Does anyone out there know any good training videos for a medium to good players. I don't want beginner videos but would drather have training videos for advanced players. I have watched a little of Final Table Poker with Phil Gordon and I really liked it. That would be one I think I would be interested in.


I can't afford to join Cardrunners so I will have to find some other less expensive training videos.
