So dude I staked for some donkaments (only like 400€) went and won some little thing yesterday so won like 1k on that. To bad I managed to lose like 2.5k for the day anyway. Still really cool that my streak of backing guys who actually makes me money continues.
I also talked a bit with my whiney ass friend () yesterday about poker and stuff and basically figured I'd either have to man up and just ignore results for a bit or get of my high horse. The 2nd alternative is never an option!
The first one who catches me playing cashgames higher then 3/6 NL/PLO before December 3rd this year gets to pick a signature for me for 1 month and can pick a charity of your choice that I'll give 500€ to. If more then one sees it it'll go to the first one who sends a PM to me.
Conditions for charity are:
Nothing to much against my beliefs, so I will refuse if it's to nazi, feminazi, enviormentalist, communist etc)
Has to be relatively easy to give them money from Sweden (ie: don't wanna give my cc info to weird random site from Russia or w/e).
Conditions for sign: nothing that is against the law, will get me banned or is formulated in such a way that I'll get to deal with rakeback sites or people who wants to have rakeback more then usual.
... For real. At least it feels a lot like I'd imagine it'd be if some big black dude tried to have his way with your behind.
Thus I'm doing mostly other things. Those includes writing a novel (almost done with the first page!) and plotting how I can get some fairly cute girl who's favourite pick up line is "I have a lesbian friend" to dump her bf. Plotting is fun.
Really, really, really looking forward to Warsaw. Will get to hang out with Gawuss and maybe say weird things into a camera while some pretty girl with a mic has to keep her face fairly straight. First one I haven't done before and the second is fun if you've had enough red bull and/or other stuff that messes with your mind.
Only played one session, won a bi or so on PLO600 but lost a bit more on PLO1k and broke even in NL1k and NL2k. Made a couple of big laydowns in the omaha, and unless people tried to bluff me of full houses a lot I think they were good. Didn't get any hands at all pretty much but the tables in NL were fairly tight so it worked out anyway. Lost a couple of medium pots to joe though, which kinda sucked. I had basically fucked with him a ton post flop and won a lot of small pots and I think he noticed since he started to 3bet a lot and I got into a really crappy spot with what vs most other 10/20 regs would be a rivershove when I slowplayed a very big hand pf, got a good flop and ended up folding to joe's third barrel when everything missed and I could only put him on like 4 combos for value. In retrospect I should probably call for a split but I just got this superweird feeling and decided to make what I'd like to call a "brain fart"-fold. I dunno, that kinda sucked.
Feels good to not play so much though, going to lectures which are somewhat interesting and have started watching prison break, which seems better then expected.
High quality striking which is really nice to see since some people seems to think that Silva and Machida is actually world class strikers . They're obviously great and all but in the pure striking department the small K1-guys are really crazy. That's just some mighty fast hands :/
And on the fighting note; Overeem looked like a total monster at the weight ins vs James Thompson and the fight lasted about as long as you can imagine. Can't wait to see him fight Fedor. Can't imagine anyone actually beating that Russian dude but vs Overeem I'd imagine it'd be one hell of a fight. Overeem is really strong, really big and has very good stand up so Fedor would probably have to get him to the ground unless he wants a really close, and possibly losing, fight. I know Fedor is crazy strong and everything, but Overeem makes Lesnar look like a fat American beer-drinking and TV-watching fuck rather then the monster he is in his own right.
Anyway; War Übereem!
Poker
Next month I'll have a ton of school stuff. Mostly really interesting things so I'll try to like open up my mind and get wise and profound and all that stuff. I'll also be social with non-poker player and non-druggies a lot more then the last few months, which will be very nice. I don't think I'll get to play too much poker, but I'll play some live (Iop got me interested in some kind of team poker challenge in sthlm), I'll try to get in like 6-7 real long mid stakes sessions (5k hands) and then mostly play whatever I feel like. However, I will try to put school first since; A. It's interesting and B. I've played so much poker it's ridiculous.
This month I've played close to 90k hands, made a okish profit but since I've raked like a mad man my rakeback will be about twice what I'm used to which should give me something in the neighbourhood of 30k€ in total profit. Not the greatest month ever, but really solid and that's pretty much what I was looking for considering how I actually lost a little last month and won't have that much time to grind in November. Also learned a bit, I'm much less of a Omaha fish now then when I begun the month (and it only cost me like 10k or so!) and I got my head on straight about one hold'em concept I had kinda forgotten thanks to something Ansky said in a training video. Think I got a little bit to passive in some spots before trying to play "perfect" and such. Now I'm back to blind aggression as my go to solution for problematic and close spots.
Other stuff
Will go and see Zombieland tommorow with some friends. Think that movie might be the best one this year. Woody Harrelson is crazy good in everything he does.
Shogun is the true LHW champion. Machida will probably make a better fight in the rematch though.
oh, and someone wrote something about the Queen song Another one Bites the Dust in some hand I posted or something (can't find it now) so now I put that on everytime I stack someone.
Played 12.5k hands this night. Mostly 2/4 and 3/6 with some 1/2 mixed in cause I ran out of tables (tried to have 10 up all time). Won 13.5k or so. Played some funny hands.
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough When you get knocked down you gotta get back up, I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough, to know, If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
I'm sure that if I just hit my head against that god damned wall enough times it'll break. My head is good that way. It's like a less cool and slightly uglier version of Rocky Balboa's.
One year from now I'll read this post again and be all like; "REDNECK PRIDE!"
Except I kinda like black people. So only the funny parts. Not the parts about dressing up in white sheets and burning stuff.
