January 6, 2008, 11AM: Played 3 hours, Made $0.80 at PS
Free-Roll 7-Card Stud Tournament (518th out of 4654 Players)

This is the tourney I got the entry to.  800th gets $0.60, 1st gets $305.  At first break I am 50 of 2977 with 7K in chips.  Just waiting for decent starting hands and pushing hard when I have the lead.  Got lucky and got moved to a table where 4 to 5 players were sitting out.  I was able to used it to my advantage and pick up a lot of chips.
 
2nd break. 8500 in chips. 300 of 1000 left.  400/800 next level.  I wasn't able to make a big move this hour. A couple of screwballs decided to chase me down.  At least I am still relatively healthy.  I will have to make a few hands next hour to get deep in the money.
 
As is the case in stud, 1 big hand changes everything. I got chased down with aces upfor a guy to make a str8 on 7th street.  Crippled me and I didn't last much longer after that as I was left with less than 3 big bets.
 
Overall, it was fun and I played poker for nearly 9 hours to make 80 cents.  Which in most cases would piss someone off, but since itis exponentially better than my current hourly rate :) I'll take it.
 
I have now officially started my bankroll on PS.
