Im to tired to write about alot of hands, i might update later but idk. Yesterday me and aj played 5/10 at the wynn, and whos sitting at the other 5/10 table if not the one and only, the epic, the magic, the legendary nazgul! Our table was a mustmove so I got moved to nazguls left pretty early. He was sitting like 8k deep or something at 5/10 and he was completely fucking raping the table. It was so hilarious, he just bombed like a madman and the whole table was on such sick tilt. Fortunately I was to his left so I didnt get raped as much. Dont really remember any hands except the last one where its folded to naz in the sb he raises and I call in the bb with A10o. Flop comes 1023r naz checks I bet kinda big and naz just snapshoves over and I call pretty fast. Idk what naz had but w/e, winning an all in against naz was pretty awesome.
Today me and aj played 10/20 at the bellagio, I was doing pretty well and my table was really soft. I will probably talk about some hands later but tonight im to tired. I ran pretty well and was up like 5k at one point, aj was crushing his table and had ran up 2k to like 10k or something. Our entire house has tickets to see the new transformers movie but neither me or aj felt like leaving the tables so we stayed and grinded instead. Turns out that was a misstake.
I played a couple of hands badish and dropped like 3k before me and aj decided to go eat. All restaurants where practicly full though so we picked up our chips and headed to the wynn instead. The 5/10 list was ridicilous but they started a 10/20 game pretty soon and we sat down. Our table was the mustmove so aj and like half the table got moved pretty quickly. Left was me, two 25/50 regs and one asian dude. A terrible fucking table and I have no idea why I kept playing. w/e, I lost a couple of hands where draws didnt get there or w/e, and then this really strange hand comes up:
One of the 25/50 players(think he said he played 25/50 online but i sorta doubt that but meh) opens on the button and I 3-bet to like 300 in the sb with Q10hh. I have like 4k he covers. He calls flop comes J97r giving me a straight draws and bd fd. I bet like half pot he calls. Turn is 4h giving me a flushdraw. I bet like 600-700 into a 1,2k pot or something. Villian thinks for a while, asks how much I have and then makes it 2,1k. Im so confused but I cant really fold since im getting raw pot odds to call and I cant really shove cause after I call i only have 1,5k left and no fold equity. I call and river is a 7 pairing the board. I consider jamming for like 2 seconds before i check, villian thinks for a while, checks and shows down K10 for k high. FML
I think I probably played it fine but idk, stacksizes made it weird and stuff. All in all I played pretty well imo but the table was tough and my draws never got there so I ended up down like 2,2k making today a negative $200.
I should just not play 10/20 at the wynn at all when the bellagio is just wayway softer.
Anyways, im still up like 4k on the trip in cashgames so I cant complain, might grind some tomorrow if im not still tilted and on saturday im playing the 1500 event.
Hey whats up people. So apparently my account was still negative 10k when I woke up this morning and on tilt I decided that fuck this I need cash so I transfered like 20k from my other account so I could cash out a couple of grand from the atm. I do so and decide to head to the cage and see whats up. Apparently both my wire transfers went through and I had a 29k wire waiting for me even though my account was good for only 15k WTF? Ok whatever so I try to get all the money in chips right away so I can go play poker and it takes foreeeevveeer with signing shit and w/e. Eventually the queen of the cage comes forward and goes on a rant on how they need to know that I will use this money at the bellagio and not the rio(which I was intending to but never said duh) so now I can only cash out 2,9k right now and I have to use my fucking bellagio retard card to get more money for the poker game and establish myself as a poker player there or whatever. Fucking morons tilt gahh.
Anyways, I decide to try and get as much money out as possible so I sign up for 10/20 and request 5k in chips with my retard bellagio fuckcard. Apparently this takes forever and it seems to be a process that involves floormen running around asking eachother stuff for 30 min. I finally get my money and I get snapmoved from the mustmove table to a table that is 5-handed with a couple of what i presume are live regs.
I have come to the conclusion that live regs really do suck. They are good at one thing and thats being intimidating. They sit with like 40k at 10/20 and throw chips around but they take shit lines and they generally dont understand the importance of position. Anyways, I weak tight myself down to 3,5-4k and then I play a couple of sort of interesting hands:
I pick up AQ in MP and raise to 80, btn who is a live pro covering my 4k bumps it up to like 240, I call cause I cant really 4-bet and I cant really fold. This guy has been really active and likes just bullying people out of the pot. Flop comes KJ2r I check he bets like 2/3 and I call cause Im stubborn and retarded. In hindsight I think this was a misstake but I was pissed and w/e. Turn is the 10c so I bink the nuts. I checkraise his smallish bet to like 1700 leaving myself with something like 2k behind. He tanks and calls, river is a 9 putting a 4-straight out there and I shove and he folds KK face up. ( felt kinda owned but later on this guy folded KK pre after getting 4-bet oop with 8k effective and the winner showed J10o lol)
About an orbit later I pick up AKs otb, mp raises I 3-bet and sb coldcalls(sb is a reg that kinda looks like a mix between prince valliant and arnold schwarzenegger, hes agressive but kinda dumb oop). Original raiser calls aswell. Flop comes 8s6s2x, checked to me I bet, price valliant folds and old dude shoves for like with a smaller flushdraw. Flush binks and I ship the pot.
A couple of orbits later I call this nitish kinda guys raise in mp with 89dd, price valliant calls aswell. Flop comes 57Kdd. Original raiser bets I flat cause I think raising kinda sucks and valliant calls. Turn is the 6h giving me the nuts. Checked to me I bet 2/3 pot both people call. River bricks I bet 2/3 again both fold.
I played some other random hands that werent all that interesting, raised some flops barrelled some turns etc but w/e. Ended up +4k or something like that which feels nice. We also played some 5/10 at the rio later that night but I was on the nittiest table ever so it was pretty boring, ended like +$300 after like 4 hours. I also bumped into naz and daut at the rio which was pretty cool. They where railing on of their horses that was at the final table of the 10k plo(i think?)
Meeting lpers is always nice but meeting naz kinda made me starstruck.
Cant think of anything else to write about so yeah, until next time bitches
Hey everybody, I promised myself I would be blogging in vegas but havent really gotten around to it yet. still have a severe money issue but I think its getting resolved. Basicly I tried making a wire transfer to the bellagio yesterday but I was very uncertain as to what numbers to put where etc, so after my first attempt it said something about the wire transfer not working or w/e. I researched how and where to write account numbers and shit and did it again and yet again it didnt work.
So discouraged and shit I went to play the 2k nlhe event at the rio yesterday and while registering I talked to the dudes there about making a wire transfer to the rio instead. I had to spend like 10 minutes begging the manager of the cage to let me do a wire transfer and finally he caved and let me do it. I have no idea why they are so paranoid about stuff like that but w/e.
Anyways, after getting home last night I checked my bank account and apparently both the wires to the bellagio worked somehow as I now was like a negative 10k in my account. Obv you cant wire transfer money you dont have but apparently my bank has like reserved the money for both the wires so now im not only cash busto but also bank account busto until monday because today is a holiday in sweden. So yeah, I have like 100 bucks for the whole weekend. Vegas ballin yo!
As for poker, I havent played alot given my money situation but the 2k event yesterday went meh. I definitely played a couple of hands kinda badish but eventually I busted cause Im just unable to win flips. No really cool hands come to mind but ill try to make a more detailed update for the next tournament ill play. I busted right before the dinner break and doomer was still in it so we went to dinner with tcblade and after that doomer borrowed me some cash to play 5/10 at the rio.
The table wasnt super soft but you can straddle the button at the rio which makes the game really fun. What doesnt make the game fun is that I gave the floorman 500 bucks and he comes back with 500 bucks in 5 dollar chips what the fuck. I hate chips so much and sitting with like a mountain of them tilts me to no end. Playing with 5 dollar chips seriously makes me play way worse than usually cause I just hate dealing with chips so i pass on alot of good spots just cause I dont wanna count out a raise or w/e. Fuck chips.
Doomer busted after a while and joined me at 5/10 for a couple of hours before we went home. We where both sick tired after playing poker for like 14 hours. We get home and go to sleep pretty quickly, unfortunately timdawg chris erik(pinball) clay and bob come home shortly after and chris timdawg and erik are sick drunk. Kinda hard to sleep when you hear timdawg repeatedly yelling: "ERIK, STOP IT YOU ARE GOING TO KILL YOURSELF" on the top of his lungs. I also have a vauge memory of erik coming into my room interviewing me with an invisible microphone but I could be wrong.
Anyways, I sorta wanna play the 1,5k event tomorrow and I think I can get someone to borrow me money for it. Problem is we are having a party at our house tonight and I will most likely be hung over as fuck tomorrow. Also I dont think anyone else will wanna play it so ill have to take a cab or something which is a bummer.
Cant think of anything else to write, next post will hopefully be more poker related with some hands and stuff. Take care bitches!
edit: LOL chris and timdawg just came through the door drunk and super excited dressed in tuxedos they just bought for no reason saying that they will be the kings of the party. HAHAHA
Just wondering, everyone is talking about getting money to vegas and this and that, Ive called the rio trying to get a wiretransfer done but no dice there, they gave me some bullshit answer about me having to have a players card at the rio for a year blablabla.
Bottom line is, im in need of like 20k in vegas tops, cashing out from an atm I have a 3k limit per week, but cant you just buy chips at the rio/bellagio with my debit card and all will be well? I mean the biggest purchase would be like 10k for the ME and that isnt a terribly huge amount of money. Anyone know?
Oh and anyone who is in vegas feel free to pm your phone number so I can get in contact with someone when I arrive on monday.
So I have finally planned out my trip to vegas for the wsop. Basicly I feel sick motivated to play a bunch of donkaments and I am planning on taking this trip pretty seriously. I mean, last time I was in vegas I woke up at 3pm everyday and played 5/10 at the wynn all night and/or got drunk somewhere. Not saying it wasnt awesome but I just feel like taking the poker a bit more seriously this time around. Ive also been working out alot lately trying to lose some weight and I definitely dont wanna ruin all of that by degening it up completely in vegas so Im probably gonna try and find a good gym where I can blow of some steam and stay in shape.
Looks like I will be staying with milkman, mezmerizeplz and their entourage in their house so this trip cant not be awesome
I will be arriving to vegas on the evening of the 14th of june, and here are the events i plan on playing:
Mon, Jun 15th No-Limit Hold’em (Event 32)$2,000
Tue, Jun 16th No-Limit Hold’em (Event 34)$1,500
Thu, Jun 18th No-Limit Hold’em (Event 36)$2,000
Sat, Jun 20th No-Limit Hold’em (Event 39)$1,500
Sat, Jun 27th No-Limit Hold’em (Event 51)$1,500
Mon, Jun 29th No-Limit Hold’em (Event 54)$1,500
Tue, Jun 30th No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed (Event 56)$5,000
Fri, Jul 3rd World Championship No-Limit Texas Hold'em (Event 57)$10,000
Total buyins: $25,000
Obviously(or rather hopefully) I wont be able to play all of these as they are 3 day events and im really hoping to get deep in some of em. I played pretty poorly in ept copehagen and it became very obvious how uncomfortable I am with playing live compared to online so I am definitely going to focus on not being such a nit/retard.
Fucking finally won a seat to the WSOP ME! I hate steps so much but theres so few MTT sats so what choice do I have? Probably spent about 4-5k in sats so feels great to ship the seat.
I was so tilted this sunday cause I busted 15th in a ftp sat where top 10 got a seat and then proceeded to bust from the sunday mill in 45th gah
Ive been very undecided about going to vegas after I sorta quit playing poker, and I felt that if I was to go it would be to play the main event cause I think that would be a really fun experience. So yeah, looks like im going Gonna have to start looking at the wsop schedule to decide which dates to go, I wanna play some smaller events prior to the ME to get a good feel for live donkaments and for the fun of it.
Got back from uppsala today after celebrating "valborg" with some friends in uppsala. Valborg is basicly a holiday that is celebrated hard core in uppsala since its a huge student city and it revolves around 40k students getting shitfaced in several diffrent ways for like two days. Its pretty fucking crazy, i didnt bring my camera but I might upload some images later if I can get my hands on a friends pictures.
It was a real blast and the weather was fucking awesome so I really enjoyed myself. So after two days of heavy drinking im sound asleep and all of a sudden im crudely awoken by a fucking bumblebee stinging me in my hand, it actually fucking hurt! I feel like such a wuss because the bumblebee is like the most pussy sounding animal in the entire insect kingdom. This was 14 hours ago and my hand is still swollen and it still hurts. What the fuck, it was a fucking bumblebee!? Anyways, I naturally beat the crap out the little fucker with a newspaper so its all good.
As for me quiting poker I have to admit I have been cheating a little bit. Ive mostly been dabbling around with some sattelites to the wsop as I really wanna play that this summer. No sucess so far though.
Owell, spring is here, hot girls are everywhere and its looking to be a really fucking great summer so life is good.
Ok, this is mainly for our sweet swedish members, but I was browsing around on the website of one of swedens biggest newspapers and I come across William Thorsons blog. For those of you who dont know him hes a swedish donkament player and a pokerstars pro. I always though he was pretty solid for no real reason but GOD. He has commented on the hand from high stakes poker where durrr does some epic soulowning and makes eastgate and barry fold the best hands.
This is the most retarded thing I have ever read. This is all in swedish but ill try to translate some of the gems from this "analysis"
"In general people play tighter live than online. Durr might play K2s in this spot online but he would never do it live"
"On the flop durrr isnt thinking at all and just tries to make everyone fold, once eastgate and barry calls he realizes that they have strong hands, but he doesnt realize how strong they are"
"the turn comes and durrr throws out a desperate bet of 105k and just hopes that they will both fold"
"I dont think there is more though behind the bet than that barry and eastgate are the weakest players on the table and he hopes they will fold something decent"
"Once he bet he realizes that it was terribe bet and that eastgate has a 2"
"durrr would never bet 105k on the turn with A2 or TT, he would bet smaller because he isnt scared of anything"
I could go on forever but I dont really feel like spreading this insult to durr more than I already have. Its fucking laughable that this guy even dares to comment a hand played by a player that is way way way way way better than this donkament fish will ever be. I really feel the urge to argue with this guy but its probably no use seeing as he is still on the 1st level.
