So feeling pretty decent right now. Still a bit tired since Pulda can't figure out the reason that someone who's been on a plane all day isn't still at the club at 2 am and therefore called me. Good thing he's so cute, cause if Blizzy had done it I don't know what I'd do...
Saw that like 50ish players survived day 1a and our friend Zografa seems to be one of the chip leaders, pretty nice. Dan Glimne is still in too. Actually thought the world would implode today. Saw him and Dregen, the Swedish pop star or w/e from Backyard Babies talk poker over breakfast.
Had a few drinks on the sky bar yesterday and ran into some people who seemed to know me a bit. Went to bed fairly early and such. I really have a good feeling for this tournament, now I'll have to go wake Pinball up before he rapes Remmember in this sleep.
20 years after D-fen's kid lost her father she goes on a killing spree. Preferably played by Megan Fox and with some nudity to compensate for the fact that the story will suck compared to the first one and it's hard to get the standard of acting set by Duvall and Douglas.
On another note I can't wait till december so that I can post my yearly graph. It's like the most swingy shit I've seen, heh.
So I was supposed to be with my parents now but unfortunately too much crap has happened to me lately that I just didn't feel up to interacting with my dear mother so I took an early train back to Uppsala. Felt like absolute crap a couple of hours ago, feel fairly decent right now. I really like my room in my appartment. Got a sweet poker set-up, a ton of books and films and other shit I like. Even my ugly-ass bed is a possession I like very much. Got it for like 50 USD or something from a friend who moved away when she didn't want to bring the piece of crap to the capital when she moved there and I felt that it was easier then actually buying something real. The only thing I really don't like is some stupid Chinese porcelain cat that's supposed to be lucky but really seems to fuck everything up for me. The plan is to take my bat and see if I'm right in my assessment that it probably falls a tiny bit faster then a tennis ball and thus should be just a bit harder to hit. In any case I'll try to get it on tape just to watch every time I feel bad about a bad beat or something.
On that note asian girl sent me like seven or something drunk text messages last night. Her English ain't so tight when she's sober, yo, so this crap be messed up. No idea wtf she meant but I rather hoped she tried to tell me to go fuck myself cause I feel much better leaving people on a good note of because they don't want to talk to you. Don't really have to deal with shit if people ignore you and you don't need them for anything.
Anyway, standing around like a retard waiting on the good damn train earlier tonight I decided to call N. Some girl I used to date 5-6 years ago. We had fun, we broke up, had a fight and then we were a bit on and off for a year or two and all that stuff. She's studying in another part of the country now and I think she had a boyfriend last I checked but she still calls me from time to time bitching about shit and catching up. Normally I don't really talk in the phone with people, and I especially don't listen to some girl crying about stupid crap for more then like half a minute or so. However, I do consider her a friend by now and besides never being able to keeping appointments I don't think she's ever done me anything wrong while I did some fairly bad things back in the day so I kinda feel like repaying a bit. Anyway, She heard I had a bad week and instead of the usual "oh poor you! Now I'll go party with my friends, later!" you should expect from a fairly pretty girl a Saturday night she told me to get on the fucking train to come see her. Now, I'm not on of those spontaneous types, which severely hurts my interaction with the opposite sex, so I told her I couldn't since I'll get guests in just a day or two but that I'd love to come down next week if it was all the same to her. Apparently it was so after UO Prague I'll drag my ass down South for a few days.
Made me feel better.
Also, I did in fact win a little bit of money when I got back here. Not much, but still.
Also really starting to get into The Wire. Stupid shit keeps me up all night, but I guess my sleeping patterns will get fucked by Prague anyway so don't care. Thanks for the tip Red.
I guess I should probably do something else for a while. Still up a decent bit in 10/20 for the month but 5/10 has been fucking with me a lot. I think I'll go back to only play in really good 10/20 games until after Unibet Open and concentrate on other things instead just to ensue that I don't manage to get a mid-month 40k downswings for the 2nd month in a row. I handled the last one fairly well but I don't know if I'd like to take it once again without a longer break in between.
Been too focused on poker for a while anyway, so it might be healthy. I guess I'll like play mid stakes omaha and mix it up with HS hold'em if fish games starts higher. Whatever, need to change now since Asian girl from last post has managed to convince me to spend time with her. To be honest I'm fairly interested in how I'll handle her considering my mood from some kind of intellectual stand point. After all it's problably the first time I'll spend a night with some girl within 24 hours from going from +20k to -5k.
Ohh well, every time I move up to high stakes I seem to win a bunch of money, cash out like 30k or so and then go on a downswing and move down. This is obviously not optimal, but it's income and for each try I seem to get better and better (as evident in that fewer people seems willing to play me). And after all, gotta learn omaha some time, right? In short; happiness rating still surprisingly high. I'd say at least like 6.8. Still got the same goal for the month too; end it in green.
Let's end it with a song I kinda can identify a bit with:
So today I turned down hanging out with the Asian chick who digs me just to play poker. That has to be a sign of something I don't want to think about. Also, I started out down like 8k due to stupid spots, a really bad stack off and some other crap. Played decentish I guess, but not much better. Played a game of dota and watched Escape from New York with my roomie. Felt a lot better due to owning randoms in dota and watching what might be a new pick for my top10 coolest movies ever (probably just below Watchmen, but might very well beat Zombie Strippers). Went back, owned some souls, ran good, played even better most of the time and a little while later I'm suddenly up like 3k for the day. 2nd day in a row I manage to start out down a fair bit and make a comeback which included a +10k session. I'm almost as awesome as this cat:
So our dreams was over due to a fucktard referee, most of the talk was about how most of the Swedish players played a much better game then most of the time. Mikael Nilsson didn't fuck up to bad more then once of twice, non of our central mid fielders was responsible for any Hungarian goals and I didn't want to kill any of our attackers to die during any point of the game. Even our goalie played good. Then with just seconds to go the Hungarians fucks up and gives Zlatan a free chance to win us the game.
Only a couple of more wins and then we might get to next stage.
Can't be bothered to join but in this people list screen names they think might be superusers. I've beaten the crap out of at least on screen name mentioned on 10/20 so yea, people are stupid, don't understand variance and I'd be really surprised if there was superusers. Not saying that everyone there is a retard but who hasn't gotten owned by some random who ran hot from time to time? Damn, if it didn't happen enough to get people upset it'd be better proof of something shady.
Also, in this topic a couple of people mentions me as one of the best 2/4 regs. First of all I'm down 30bi on 2/4 over the summer, mostly due to 9-tabling like a retard playing loose as hell to get VIP-points for some race. The other thing I'm annoyed about is that half the people they mention me with are worthless, and to make matters worse the superbumhunter "Given" posts on the same page. He tilts me so hard, before him I wasn't even sure there existed people with his lack of self respect, ego and balls.
In other, happier news, I've started this month out only playing 5/10+ and 4tabling. Been doing decent and I feel that I can hold my own against most regs. Played this guy Kriga HU for a couple of 100 hands today and took him for like 1.5bi at 10/20 and even if it's no sample at all and I ran pretty hot it feels good coming out ahead of playing some guy who sits and seems to play almost anyone at 10/20 and 25/50. I think I've played decent overall, really good some of the time and "ok" most of the time. Only really played bad for a couple of 100 hands. Fucked up a bit vs some nits some of the time, but other then that I'm happy with it all.
Really happy with most stuff now. My little china girl will visit tomorrow (such a cliché), Saturday I'm going to my cousin's kid's birthday party which is nice since I haven't seen them in a while and then I've got a week of mostly poker before Pinball comes to visit before Unibet Open Prague, which will also be tons of fun. Probably getting a homegame going somewhere in there to with most of the Swedish LP-mid stakeers.
Think this is my 2nd or 3rd biggest month ever. Was down for the month a week ago or something.
Other then that I'm off to dinner with a few old friends and then we've got tickets for Inglorious Bastards or however Tarantino wants it spelled. Also sat with 13k or something on a 10/20 table yesterday. Never had that much money on a table before, so that felt kinda cool. Getting a fairly good grasp of hold'em I feel, but still leaking a lot of money trying to play omaha. Guess I'll need to learn it sooner or later though.
Also, thanks to SugoGosu for recommending Street Dogs. Two Angry Kids and Kevin J. O'Toole are both really nice songs.
Was bored. Found this. Agree with Flipius that I fuck some stuff up, and for those who wants to know; Yes I do lose a ton vs shortstack . Still happy with the TT hand though. Like to apologize to all people I was rude too ("people" doesn't include shortstacks). Also, someone stated that I ran bad or something, that's not true, as far as poker goes I'm the luckiest son of a bitch ever. Except like main event winners and that crap.
Also bet like 100€ on Silva and another 100€ on Maia, both for 2.20 odds. A little bit concerned that I don't know that much about the fighters but on the other hand it kinda felt like really solid match ups.
