Day 79
player999, Nov 25 2010

Have no motivation to play online atm, not putting any volume. Only 4k VPPs away from my goal so there's really no point in playing, I find it hard to set money goals, it just creates frustation. Really really bored with the grind, so I moved up but I run sick sick bad at the 115s because apparently -150k fishes hit gutshots always. Also really busy with uni.
Today tho I went to play some live 1/2 3-card holdem and in a short 3.5 hours session I busted everyone at the table (~10 ppl) except one guy (who didn't wanna play HU for some reason ), for a 2.5k profit, so that was nice. 3-card holdem is the shit, basically you get pairs every hand and hit sets every other hand and stack ppl when you do because no one folds anything ever its live poker duhh.

Also took one day to play MTTs because of HU boredom too. Lost flips for the CL to bust 11th in 2 tourneys, but got 2nd in another one to finish up at least. Still wasn't happy cause I lost to the biggest idiot ever at HU, the guy would call down any pair at the FT and raise any air 100% of the time. So first hand of HU he c/r me on the flop and I say to my friend on msn: "oh he's gonna donate on 1st hand already, he prob has J2o". Then on the turn I say "gg unless he hits his gutshot".

And then at even stacks he open shoves next 5 hands, I get 99 he has AA gg, fuck tournaments.

103k VPPs in 74 days now, 7k away from the bonus 
Day 69
player999, Nov 16 2010
Last few days:

Didn't play much, swinged much, didn't make any money cause of million + FTOPs HU + 215 HU last sunday where I failed hardcore. Busted FTOPs 2nd hand set x flush, bubbled the other 2 on 70/30s, other than these only donkament I played online last ~2 months was million freeroll which I bubbled too when I was at 5th in chips, huge donk at my table had me covered and coolered me, fuck tournaments.
Today I was playing with the idea of going SNE next year, would have to play something crazy like 9k sngs/month-300/day (that puts me ahead of pace by a lot, but it would have to be my goal so I can rest later in the year when I'm burn out, take the occasional day off). Man, that would be sick. Only did more than 300 once (304) and I'm pretty sure that's a world record. Maybe will see how it goes in february (cant play in jan) and take it from there.
99k VPP so far, 11 more till 3.4k bonus 

Day 64
player999, Nov 12 2010
Just finished playing 74 matches in a row against the sickest fish ever.
He was open shoving pf about 25% of the hands and also doing shit like this all the time:
+ Show Spoiler +
He run like I've never seen anyone run in my 20k+ games tho. At one point when we were 2tabling he stacked me at the same time with 33 and 55 on QT3r and K95r against my QT and K9. I was down a bit over 11bis to him at some point but ended 36 wins/38 losses.
Still finished up today overall tho, but its so sick to know that I lost to this guy over a lot of matches, fml...

92k VPPs so far:
