The time has come

        Over the weekend I was dying to play poker. I couldn't stand it anymore. I looked at every major casino in Oklahoma and there daily tournament schedule was abysmal. It was seriously one of the worst schedules I have ever seen. SO I went to the computer; searching. Searching for some sort of online option that maybe I had never heard of or was completely new. Bingo. I stumbled across a forum that was constantly throwing a few sites around and I eventually decided to go with one. Everything I read said it was completely safe for American players and that the company itself was taking the risk. Which if you look back at past events is completely true. The Department of Justice never once targeted the individual poker player, only the companies involved in the online gambling. So here it was clear as day on my desktop. The icon for Lock Poker. I deposited $50 for starters just to be sure it was not a complete scam. The have a pro team on their website with a few well named pros from around the world. It was time for me to head back into the online poker realm. The day was spent with trying out different rooms and tournaments. Just dipping my toe into everything I could on the website. I ended up losing around $25, but it was the best $25 dollars I have ever lost. I have finally found a reliable home for online poker. I am planning on getting back on track of a regular poker schedule. It is hard now because the website is still aimed at European play which means there peak poker time is the opposite time here. So finding that balance of max amount of tournament players and what time it is here will be a struggle at first, but it is a struggle I will gladly accept.
