Online Poker Screen Names
 We have noticed users requesting online poker screen names and as well anticipated users wanting to know who is who during our private tournaments, so we created a Poker Screen Name Directory.
To list your screen names go to your "My Account" section. Here you can list your poker screen names. If you want them to be private just click the private option next to the specific name.
We linked the Private Tournaments Page to the Screen Name Directory and Online Poker Room Reviews Page since they all are not in the header and are "harder" to find.
Enjoy!

Thoughts on hand?
 Blinds 40-80
Player A stack = 3450
PLayer B stack = 2000
Folds to player A in SB and he limps. Player B makes it 240. Player A raises to 720. Player B shoves for 1280 more and Player A quickly calls with 22. Player B had AJ.
How well does Player A play this pot? Only info I had as I watched this hand is that it is a big buy-in tourney and that Player B had not gotten out of line.
Who Player A is isn't important, but I am curious because Player A berated player B after the hand...and I thought the 22 was played a lot worse than Player B who was the aggressor on the all in. Just curious.

Yet Another Re-Focus
Alright. It's time to refocus. Recently I have not been having the results that I hope to have. Part of this is a function of putting in a smaller volume. However, I have also lacked motivation, had a busy schedule of classes and homework, and yes, I have even been relatively unlucky (I've vented enough about this already).
But, no more excuses. I still may struggle getting in the volume I would like to but it's time to get the train back on the track.
I have a new, refocused plan with several goals. I think that as I try to stay aggressive on bubbles and in late stages of tournaments, I have gotten a little reckless/sloppy. I don't think I have developed the right feel for these spots quite yet, but continued experience will help. In the mean time, I just need to focus more in the stages leading up to the bubble so that I have more information on my opponents to help make better decisions.
Goals:
1) Take better notes on players through out the tournament.
2) Stick to $1 and $2 MTTs. Both so that I can get a better grip on my game again, and because I have cashed out some funds and my online roll is a little smaller now.
3) Don't think about the money or my finish, just try to make the best play at every stage.
4) Make a couple final tables in the near future. It's been a looong time.
Many of my goals are based on relatively simple aspects of the game, but I think that when you are struggling that is the best thing to get back to.

How to handle yourself after hours of looking into the computer screen???
 I typically just play live limit hold 'em but found several dollars on one of my online accounts. I won a seat to the sunday million on pokerstars and played in the tourney. I ran extremely well and played somewhere near my A game for just over 6 hours and then I decided to torque off all my chips with a below moderate hand. Just curious how other people handle themselves after extremely long periods of looking at the computer. I'm not used to the continual grind of such a long tourney.

Private OPL Tourney?
Just a suggestion...
I don't know what Deiyuo and the rest of the guys working on this site want for future users or growth, but I remembered that on Full Tilt (maybe other sites too?) there are tournaments under the "Private" tab that any user can create. I found a post at FullTiltPoker.com describing how to do it:
"To set up a private tournament, simply send an e-mail to [email protected] with all of the following information regarding the tournament you want set up:
Tournament Name:
Tournament Date:
Tournament Time:
Game to be Played:
Buy-In and Entry Fee:
Password:
Expected Turnout:
That's everything, but here are a few other things to be sure to watch for:
The tournament's name can not exceed 25 characters.
The time you choose is clear (If you want a tournament at 4 PM, don't just write 4:00, write 16:00 SERVER TIME). All unlabeled time zones are interpreted as SERVER TIME, which is US ET.
The entry fee must be at least 10% of the buy-in.
The password must be all lower case letters without spaces.
If you want a tournament with something other than a nine player minimum, make that clear in your e-mail."
You can also advertise for the tournament in the forums. If you make the tournament a private tourney rather than a public/open tourney you could make people come to OPL to find the password. There are probably a few options you could play with to benefit the site most, but again, just thought this might be a cool idea if it is something you OPL elites would be interested in. :)
