Donkinurmum

Donkinurmum is a wsop online player from Nevada.

The person behind it is just an average online poker grinder, with no significant results to show. I prefer cash games over tournaments.

The name Donkinurmum came about as kind of a joke. I prefer names that kind of razz the other players, but I didn’t want to come straight out and say YourMomIsUgly — although that too is a funny username.

So say Donkinurmum anyway you want:

Donking your mom – Like donk betting (leading into her raise) your mom who is playing at the game.

Donk in your mom – like a donkey has an appendage inside your mom. Personally, I think you have a dirty mind if you read it this way!

The Las Vegas shooter’s gambling addiction

The Las Vegas shooter’s gambling addiction

Human beings are driven by primitive instincts, most of which evolved in a very different world of limited resources and dangerous predators. When we lose something, we have an urge to “get it back.” I’ve felt it as a professional gambler, in fact, I regularly feel it. It is a painful emotion. Ironically, this instinct probably served our ancestors well in ancient times, when it was necessary to fight for every scrap of food. That impulse to “get it back”

The promo downswing

The promo downswing

Most poker players know of the withdraw doom switch, in which a downswing occurs immediately after withdrawing from the site. For me, it’s the promo doom switch. I tend to have my best months when I’m not playing for any kind of bonus. In the months the poker site is offering tons of rakeback via different promotions (read 55% rakeback), I tend to not do as well. My base cashback is 20%. I receive that because of my elite status

Total Rewards Seven Stars – Bad Hosts

Total Rewards Seven Stars – Bad Hosts

My first casino host with Total Rewards was awesome. She was assigned automatically after I earned about 20,000 tier credits from a video poker machine at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe, which took me to around 75,000 tier credits total that year (the first year I ultimately made Seven Stars). She wasn’t in Lake Tahoe, she was in Las Vegas as part of an “inside sales” team. For about a year, things were good. She handled all my requests via email and

Seven Stars Experience Tahoe

In taking advantage of my Seven Stars status earned last year mostly through WSOP online poker, I attended the free Seven Stars Signature Experience at Lake Tahoe in June. The event provided me the following: Free 5 nights in Lake Tahoe Free entries to 70k Bingo 7x point multiplier one day Swag 7x Point Multiplier   Knowing I would need the additional 15k in tier credits to maintain Seven Stars this year, I used the 7x point multiplier to obtain

Atlantic City – Top Total Rewards Destination

I recently visited Atlantic City utilizing my Diamond Aspiration II privilege from Total Rewards. Diamond Aspiration II provides free airfare and 4 nights free stay at any Total Rewards Hotel. I chose Caesar’s Palace on the Atlantic City boardwalk. Atlantic City – A Gambler’s Dream Being a Las Vegas resident and typically being disappointed with any casino outside Las Vegas, I expected Atlantic City to trail Las Vegas in every way, but I was pleased to find Atlantic City surpassing

Diamond Aspirations 2017

Diamond Aspirations 2017

It appears the Diamond Aspirations of the Total Rewards program were significantly altered for 2017 earning. The main difference being the removal of the 5,000 point bonuses for each level. Players who reach Aspiration II will not start 2018 with a 10,000 point head-start.     Atlantis Bahamas packages Total Rewards continued its promotion with Atlantis Bahamas for 2017, but those packages were reduced. Aspirations I no longer includes the Daily Resort Fee which is a significant cost. Aspirations II

A perk of being a Diamond or better member of Total Rewards is a deeply discounted rate at the amazing Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas. I afforded myself of this promotion for 2016 and seeing as Total Rewards has renewed it for 2017, I intend to do so again. (Atlantis Total Rewards Promo 2017) Most of my tips for booking still apply, though be aware that all the packages for 2017 are reduced. Seven Stars is no longer virtually free,

WSOP.com Solve For Why All-stars week

After seeing the group of players I was put in for my week with the Tricks of the Trade promo, I’m wondering if they did in fact group us a little based on the limits or amount of time we play. There seem to be a large number of grinders in my group whereas the Icons group has few. That is no matter, if I set my mind to winning the leaderboard, I would have a good shot now that Whiteyslacks

Caesars Palace Spa & Fitness Center

Que Bath and Spa at Caesars Palace Las Vegas One major benefit for Seven Stars members, especially local Las Vegas members, is the free access to the Fitness Center and Spa at Caesars Palace Las Vegas. I’ve been enjoying the gym and the spa regularly since earning Seven Stars last year.
