POKER • 200k VPPs • PROFIT • 15 live MTTs • Play WSOP Main Event • Host a live game • Play live more often • Play only when I can be 100% focused • Be profitable at various forms of poker • Tweet/blog ...

I clearly have leaks that I need to work to fix so I'll be studying more HHs and watching some videos online. No more following bad habits and telling myself I'm just perpetually running bad. I'm very confident in my tourney game currently and a cou...

But this has changed my poker mindset...I'm no longer desperate to have winning sessions/bink something and my tilting has gone down as a result. Played a pretty long session tonight that wouldn't have been possible even a month ago. Stayed focused the whole time to come through as a winner. Let's see how ...

Some of them were in action tonight as I played a slate of MTTs tonight...as I don't want to be staked again I played a micro mtt slate.

I was busto a few times and staked for the first 2 times ever. I played pretty awful in online cash games and didn't play nearly enough hands. I'm fucking lazy. I got destroyed sports betting during march madness and never really recovered. I had ok success in online MTTs and actually broke out a lil in live MTTs over a small sample. I had a nice run ...

I was exhausted and Tuesday was a day off. I headed over to the Palms for a little bit to meet up the fellow sports betting degens 2p2ers luckybacon and rayschampsin08 (fatdan44). I watched them play BJ and craps for a bit before heading back to the Bellagio to play some roulette and bet on some sports. Dan and I agreed to be...

If there's any interest I'll continue writing. Goodness…where to begin? I was offered a stake ~3 weeks prior to the Main Event to play and given I was pretty busto at the time I jumped at the opportunity. I quickly booked a week in Vegas at the Bellagio and bought round trip tickets for me and for my girlf...

Basically doubled up about 30 minutes in and broke even the rest of the day. Played with Lou Diamond Phillips and JC Tran most of the day. Lou is a surprisingly tough player for an actor I've gotta say and JC Tran is super sick as well. Dennis Phillips got moved to our table for a little also but bled off 100k pretty quick before our table broke. Got moved t...

Shortly after the first break I get AKo in v KK for ~45k apiece (ups)...guy starts storming the table and yelling "I GOT HIM...I KNEW I'D GET HIM...I GOT HIM"...J77JA...chuss. I uncharacteristically yelled out loud and told him that's why you don't start celebrating before the ha...

Messed up two hands but other than that thing went well. Owned in position and didn't get much resistance all day. Table was decent but not great...had David Oppenheim, derek8, thecamel on it. Oppenheim shot up to like 90k but busted just after dinner. I raise JJ to 900...

Is it possible to register for the Main Event online or over the phone? I don't really feel like having to bring $10k+ in cash on the plane to Vegas if possible and there have been so many nightmare stories on people with their wires to casinos. Any advice for what I should do? Or if someone out there can hook me up with cash for Stars PM or post...
