$50 to $1k Race

Rushed home from work to watch the USA v Czech Republic and see Mrs A off as she's away for a wee break with her folks until Thursday.This is a quick half-time post.

2-0 to the Czechs at h/t and probably no way back for the US.I'm hoping Rangers new signing,Sionko,will come on for the Czechs at some point too.Looking forward to Italy V Ghana later.

Deciding on a new tv isn't so easy.I've only got around £900 of poker cashout dough to spend on it and I was going for a 32" LCD but I'm tempted now by a 37" or 42" Plasma screen now.I used to work in a large electrical store and was in charge ( whooopeee) of the biggest tv section in the UK ( at the time) but I haven't kept up and have no idea which is the best option.( got to be HD ready though).

On the poker front I've managed to increase my $50 to $76 at Interpoker as part of my challenge to myself to get it to $1k asap.I've challenged Juice too and if anyone else would be interested in depositing/starting with $50 and racing to $1k please give me a shout.I suppose the inspiration is Chris "Jesus" Ferguson turning $1 into $20k. Winning and using good bankroll management are probably the keys to success.

The $.15-.30 6 max tables at Inter are very fishy but also dangerous from a variance point of view.Came 2nd and 6th in two $5 sng's at Pokerroom too for a $5 profit.

Righty 2nd half starting soon.....
