Proper blog

jvilla777, Oct 02 2013

Hey LP,

It’s been awhile since I last blogged. I also decided to try and write up a proper blog rather than just random updates. Some of LPers(Marshall, Goldrush/Neilly, Dustyswede, DJforever) actually motivated me to write it up just like theirs.

I haven’t played poker for about 3 months now, because every time I tried to play I had mixed feelings about it. I felt like I was more forcing myself to sit down and play rather than actually wanting to play. I felt like I had no motivation in doing so, so then I decided I will give it a break. I still do love it and basically visit hands that’s being posted on here. I am currently still at 25nl basically starting from $30 and have never busted this roll. Basically I am rolled for 50nl but have learnt a boring nitty br management. I still do like to watch poker games on YouTube, and see hands unfold here on LP.

After this semester I will basically have 2 subjects left to do at UNI. I have told myself multiple times that I felt like I chose the wrong degree but only realized this halfway through my studies and could not turn back. I have no idea what the fuck I’m going to do when I finish, I’ve spoken with a uni students about this and people that have positions in organizations and have come up with my own conclusion that most businesses and organizations don’t really care about what you studied in university or what so ever, most want to see the experience you’ve gained while being at university. Yes the kind of degree that you did only shows an interest in the field you want to work in but does not necessarily give you a gold pass in getting a career. Therefore the degree that you have finished only shows these employers that you are capable of learning and have the ability to push yourself to learn so when they do employ you, they can provide you the essential training and experience you need to be able to work for them. Basically experience is what matters to most employers since I guess they prefer you do the job rather than train you first. And when they do decide to train you, the want to see that degree to show them you are willing to learn.

Also for the past 2 months my motivation turned to getting fit and healthy, I felt like I wanted to get out more and not stay in so much. I signed up to the gym and had no idea wtf I was doing. But I felt like we only get 1 chance in life to do stuff so why not try new things. The first few times I walked in to the gym I felt intimidated and never tried to make eye contacts with nobody. But the more I went there more confidence I gained, I kept doing my own research in regards to nutrition and which foods to eat. The more research that I did, the more I felt like wanted to go and work out. I could feel minor changes in my body and my sleeping pattern. I slept more and started to get a pattern of waking up early in the morning. This basically became the time that I went to the gym. I started by going about 4 times a week and then in the last two weeks I have been going every day.

I feel so much better and healthier and as I continued I felt more confident in myself and feel like I can do more things during the day. And now also I’m craving to play poker but I’m going to limit myself to only play for 2hrs max at any given day.

Also if you like you can follow me on http://instagram.com/jvilla777# or on www.facebook.com/jeff.villa.73 for daily healthy food porn and gym motivations.

sick to my stomach

jvilla777, Jan 11 2013

well the title of the my blog very well relates to this downswing I havent really won at 16 and 25nl since last year Dec. This month really Ive been having some of my worst sessions so far. I know downswing happens and yes I do get this "sick to my stomach" feeling when it occurs. ROFL thread helps alot when I take breaks from playing its been funny as fuk lately. Also TalentedTom, stroggoz, longple and wobbly continue to comment on hands even though they are microstakes sometimes. cheers.

Lets gooo Microoooos!!

Also this title relates to the 2nd part of this blog, Im really freaked out when it comes to heights and I usually like to watch videos about people messin around with tall ass structures and shit. Dont ask me why,but probably because I get this wierd "sick to my stomach" feeling when I imagine myself in their shoes but while still being safe at home. lol.

Anyways LPers you gotta see this video.

I wasn’t sure what to name this blog post, and since it’s time to post results for the past 2 months here it is.

During October and early November I didn’t play as much reason being is uni students usually gets pumped with uni work towards the end of the semester. I’m not the type of student who really studies unless there is like a week left until something is due. But this semester I tried much harder because it consisted mostly of group works. Anyways I got a pass and a credit for my subjects which made me pretty happy because I usually just pass lol. I’m also doing 2 subjects in uni this summer session; hopefully I finish by the end of next year if all goes well.

Also during the start of October I lost like 2 BIs at 25nl I just insta quit then moved down to 16nl and there I lost 5 BIs so just also quit, this happened within a span of 3 sessions in 2 days so didn’t play for a few days. I was still comfortably rolled for 25nl at this time but I usually just go back down to 5nl and 10nl and just win a few BIs. I’ve always been a bankroll nit I don’t usually play unless I have 45-50 BIs. It’s a funny feeling when I’m winning I feel like I am super good but when I lose just a few BIs I feel like I am the worst, this is why I move down and just try to win a few BIs to get that winning feeling again (I think it’s called confidence lol).

I am still off track, I wanted to reach the last level of the micros (50nl) by December but it didn’t happen, I am still at 25nl. Here is my lifetime graph.

Also since it is December I’m giving away $5 on Pokerstars to the first LP member who correctly answers both questions which I will post below. I know $5 is peanuts but I’m no baller, I’m only a micro stakes player so just call it a Christmas gift (haha), also just a way to give back to the community (LP Hand Histories = super quick way to learn).

Poker timeline update

jvilla777, Oct 16 2012

I played 2 sessions of 16 nl during the past weekend. And it was just pukaments!!

1st session, our microhero couldnt recover..

+ Show Spoiler +

The 2nd session I was pretty well rested before I started and feeling good..

Then I started to feel somewhat similar to my first 16nl sesh, felt like I was going down an escalator..

then when I got even, I was planning to take a break after this hand..
+ Show Spoiler +

So this left our microhero no choice but to play.. and keep goin
+ Show Spoiler +

So hungry, havent had lunch, eyes getting really tired, brain thinking alot different now and playing for about 5hrs..

suited cards are starting to look more and more beautiful as I keep getting stuck, every hand on button is a must raise now, supervillains in the blinds are starting to take notice firing constant 3bets at our super tired hero.

Our microhero's thought process is now "I call this 3b because I am in position and supervillain in the blinds have AK, so if I flop a PAIR I am good"..
