I know I havn't been online/answered mails/PM/etc for a while and it's only because I have a cold from hell and a pretty mean fever. I missed my seminar today for the first time in more then 2 years so that says it all I think. Need to turn in some shit this Friday too so I need to get healthy asap. One of the greatest people I've ever had the honor to know will visit me in Uppsala this weekend too, and it'll be the first time I see him in over a year, so there's no way in hell I'm sick any longer then like lunchtime Friday.
"the Light will take care of us all. And if the Light doesn't, well, we'll just take care of ourselves". - Some dude in a Robert Jordan novel I happen to like.
Ok, so every time I get back too Uppsala I seem to hit a downswing. I'm annoyed when I play and even though I'm playing my A-game, or at least B+, most of the time I'm slipping some of the time. I'm down like 9k€ this month over very few hands so that sucks ass. To get a fresh start I've decided to withdraw a lot of my bankroll and do what I always do when I feel like entering a new phase in my "poker life"; start a new database.
I'll start out with 20k€ online and play 2/4€ (and 3/6$ since it's the same thing) until I hit 30k, then I'll play 3/6€ (and 5/10$ obv) until I've got 60k€ and that's pretty much my goal for this fall. I'll also try to play at least 1k hands/day 5 days a week and hope to reach 30k hands/month from October and onward.
Funny thing is that I did something similar just over a year ago. I withdrew everything but 216 USD, I was playing 1/2 at the time, and grinded that back up from NL50 to the very place I am today. Obviously a working concept. Overall I'm pretty proud with where I am right now considering that I've played for just over 2 years and also managed to stay in law school without one single failed test. Decent grades + lots of monies is a good result I think. Now I'll get them even better and I really feel that I have a decent shot to make a shitton of money next year if I take a year of law school. I'll just have to have a roll for 5/10+ and some confidence left. It'd be great to have 100bi when I begin that grind.
I got very inspired by Pinball when he visited so I'll might try to get another screen too. More tables ftw when you don't feel like playing really high. And while I namedrop I'd like to remember one of my favorite poker players all time; Gawuss. I remember how we talked a lot about poker a year ago or something and how we felt that NL1k was the SHIT and that we would be sooo happy if we ever got there. He'll probably be there soon and unless I fuck up I'll be back there in a month or two. Really makes me feel happy and put things in perspective.
Also, I'm pretty sure Malmis tried to sleep in my bathtube. And I might've accidentally cockblocked Pinball. However, I think I also might've saved him from at least a couple of STD's at the same time, so w/e.
Pinball's coming to town tomorrow,
I'm so happy got no sorrow,
Sakisaki is still to sickz (to come),
we'll replace him with some chicks,
Our friend Pol Roger is callin'
It's pretty close to Pinballin'
This rhyme is fucking gay as hell,
Do anyone have some talent to sell?
Anyway I'm not really done with this
Malmis lives nearby with girls of his
They're not his as per say
But we're still happy cause none of them are (as far as we know) gay.
He is a fun ally in dota
Nu kommer jag inte på ett jota
Anyone wanna write the last part of the poem (has to be about me)?
Pokerwise I actually win a bit right now so that's nice. I'll end august up maybe 4-5k €. Not good, but considering a couple of failed 10/20 shots and a serious lack of hands played (less then 30k) I'm ok with it. Especially since my two last month both was the best two months ever for me pokerwise.
IRL I'm getting killed.
1. Some girl I know came by and borrowed a couple of books for school. When she went out I told my friend that she was "Dum som stryk", or "dumb as fuck", which she kinda isn't. She can't write stuff for shit cause she's from some Camel-country and not that used to the Swedish language or w/e but she's really nice and somewhat bright. Whatever, I wanted to make a joke and for that joke to be funny she needs to be stupid. Apparently the window was open cause now her name on msn is something like "If you've got something to say; say it too my face, don't go behind my back and talk crap".
2. My roommate dragged me along to a stupid bar to meat a couple of his friends yesterday. I was told a slutty girl would be there. He told me he was ok with me hitting on said slutty girl, but not the other two cause he had slept with them. Does not compute but w/e. Said slutty girl wasn't there so the line up was pretty much me, him, funny geek-dude, standard annoying frat boy low life and c couple of girls. Non pretty, one with a boyfriend, one who looked lesbian (but has had sexy-time with roommate) and a somewhat fat girl my friend ended up going home with.
3. Due to said fat girl my friend once again took the lead in our getting laid race, he's currently in the lead 2-1.
4. Girl who's crazy as hell, which is one of my turn ons, said she'd never let anythingfrom Gävle (my home town) touch her body again due to her being stranded there today while trying to get a train back to sthlm. I hope to fuck her monday, hopefully my main man won't be able to increase his lead before that.
I might want to try and get something this weekend too, just in case. It's getting stressful.
HH's from prima doesn't work atm but I think it went something like me raise in the sb, aggro dude 3-bets and we're deep and I'm annoyed so I call KJo cause I figured it couldn't be that bad (hint: it is) and 4bets doesn't get respect so whatever. Flop ATxss, cheek/check so I figured he had an A, turn something stupid so I bet out my gutshot for no apperent reason, he calls. River completes the flush and is a J so I figured I could be good and whatnot so I check, he bets and I decide to 2.5x him or so and make a 100bb reraise which he snaps of faster then, I dunno, faster then I've ever seen someone call with AQ.
It was pretty impressive. I guess I got really owned.
Also, some total limpretard who couldn't valuebet for shit or do anything remotely close to right sat with like 6bi and I had pos on him for like 3 hours and couldn't take a fucking pot from him. I think I folded once vs him when I had raised his limp but other then that it went he limp, me raise, he check/call with something, I check 2 streets if I had air and bet a couple of streets with hands and the occasional bluff and he managed to have at least TP every damn time.
I need to stop running bad when I take shots at high stakes this month. Also, it tilts me when retards pwns me despite obviously not knowing wtf they're doing. lol
Still up like 6k€ or so. I think I'll try to make 10k/month my new goal for a while.
Only make this post cause I feel better when I make then "still up" and stuff posts. FUCK!
I had my biggest losing day ever today. Shit happends when you're hungover, running bad and playing 10/20. Talked to a dear friend from law school today and he told me that the new classes was official so I had to have a look. I don't know all of them, some of the people I can accept but overall I'm not really happy. I won't spend much time with them but whatever, I'm semi-annoyed.
1. Unknown girl named "Ingeborg". Probably has evil parents because the name sounds like something some senile old lady would have.
2. Very smart, very proper, very nice and good person. He's not much fun though, and he's much smarter then me.
3 and 4. Two people with identical names. Wtf?
5-7 Some dudes with a boring namn. Never heard of them.
8. Funny girl from the Svenska Spel commercials. Has apparently worked a bit as a model. She's nice.
9. Me.
10. Some girl I think I know from somewhere. Gave me a cigarette like 3 months ago. I don't smoke, but still, it's a nice gesture.
11. My friends GF since like 8 months who I still haven't talked too while sober. That might have a lot to do with my friend wanting to appear like a decent person, but w/e.
12-15: People with semi-stupid names I don't know.
16. Some small skinny dude who threatened to kick my ass when I poured beer over some girl who ended up becoming my roommate. He's nice and everything, and apparently he's into boxing and shit, but come on, he's like half my size!
17. Someone who I suspect is the daughter of the Chancellor of Justice.
18. Another random dude.
19. Some girl who pwned my ass in a drinking competition. In my defense it was 4 shots for me and 2 each for her and her friend, but still. Quite impressive.
20. "That guy". I have no idea how he got to hang out with my circle of people. Obvious beat.
21. Some girl I think I've talked to once. Cute.
22. Some girl I knew like 2 years ago. She had a bf I think. She was quite pleasant to talk with.
23-24. Random dudes.
25. Someone with the last name "Rommel". Dunno about any relation to Germans.
