No Focus

On PuntersLounge there is a daily MTT selected as a 'focus game' in which members of PL compete for points to be rated the Best Poker Player on any given rolling 28 day period (best five scores taken into account).

The game is usually chosen on the basis of value - although some are PL exclusive league games - and that does not always mean freerolls, although one game quite often chosen is the V-points freeroll on Virgin on a Sunday evening.

I 'cashed' in third this week and managed seventh a couple of months back and the one factor shared by both these events is that the freeroll was not chosen as the PL focus game that night. Annoying as I could have done with the extra points in my quest to move up the PL table but I will settle for the cash (or the V-points which can be converted) instead !

I also played with 17499 others in the $100k guaranteed MTT on Poker Stars and went out in 15000th+ but congratulations to heniek on PL who survived seven hours play to finish 4th to earn more in one night than my poker profit for the last 14 months !
