January so far
Gawuss, Jan 20 2009

Damn I'm sick now, my entire body hurts and I've got a fever. I'm not going to play until I feel fine.
Most of my winnings are in euros. I really need to play more, but shit, that sickness won't let me stay focused.
I guess I'll watch "Grindhouse vol.1: Death Proof" now.
gl to everyone

2008, 2009 and other stuff
Gawuss, Jan 15 2009
I'm not going to post any graphs and stats from '08 because all I can say is that it was mediocre. My goal was to make $100k and I only managed to win $20k. One could say it's not that bad for an underaged player but I'm kind of dissapointed. First 5 months of 2008 were winning ones. My shitty, swingy run started in June. I also had to withdraw about ~$9k for a new PC and my USA trip in summer. I can't blame only poker gods for my mediocre 2008 - I must admit that I'm a lazy slob and didn't really put as much time into poker as I could have. Ok, let's leave last year behind.
I'm pretty much even in January so far. The last couple of days I didn't play poker at all cause I had some learning to do.
As for the stakes, I'm playing 2/4 euro with no intention of moving down. I feel I've got some edge there but it needs to be shaped.
Some of you probably know 2009 is the year when I finally turn 18 On the first hand I'm looking forward to it but on the other hand I've got some money to win before my birthday cause I plan on going to a couple of EPTs later this year.
When it comes to my real life it's been OK lately. Actually it's going to be better than OK very soon
My knee is getting better as I've been going to rehab. The muscles are being rebuilt and the power of my leg is coming back However, I have to use crutches a few weeks more (hopefully less than that).
This Saturday I'm going on a prom (it's not really my prom, one couple from every 2nd class has been chosen as a delegation or sth). It's bound to be a great party. A lot of my friends are graduating this year and this is probably one of the last opportunities to have fun together. I can't wait !!
In February we got 2 weeks of holidays so my friend Karol, who just like me doesn't have anything to do then (he doesn't have his leg 'stuck' though lol), will move in for a week into my house to chill w/ me :D. I have already been invited to a jamaican house-party hosted by my class-mate and it's likely there's going to be another theme party during holidays where you'll have to dress as a fairy tale character - pretty cool idea imo.
Hmm.. I guess that's all I wanted to write about. Oh, I forgot about a date. There's this cute girl from my class,who all of a sudden invited me on a date when I fully recuperate. It's pretty weird cause I tried to make out with her earlier and she seemed uninterested. My good friend asked her to go with him to the prom and he told me he's going to 'go all in' there and see if she calls I don't think it's going to happen, however, I wouldn't be mad at all if they started going out(grammar or w/e problem - shouldn't it be 'started to go out' here ?).
Thanks for reading, good luck to y'all guys

Surgery
Gawuss, Dec 20 2008
Damn I have to post a poker update finally but I'm a lazy slob. I just wanted to keep you posted about my knee operation. Tommorow I'm going to the hospital. I'm allowed to eat a small breakfast and then nothing for the whole day. Then on Monday I'm going to be operated at about 8-9 a.m. And there's this thing that kind of scares me. They will give me a surgery anaesthesia in my spine so that I won't feel half of my body. I wonder how it feels like. Hopefully nothing goes wrong and by the noon doctors will have finished. So wish me luck and not to be bored in the hospital with grandmas and grandpas lol. I should be back at home on Tuesday.
Mike
P.S. And to cheer myself up here's a pic of me from the USA trip 

I guess everyone should know where it was taken

Life bad beat - knee surgery
Gawuss, Dec 06 2008
Well, it happens - what can I do ? It's not because of an injury, actually I don't know if there's any reason of this disease. It is called Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Knee (actually of the knee-cap).
Here's the X-Ray:

I'm going to undergo an operation - probably just before Christmas. Hopefully everything will be allright. However, I can't go snowboarding this year. It sucks hard cause I wanted to go to Alps so badly this year :/ Dammit !
I was going to post a poker-update but I guess I'll do it later. My knee is more important.
Peace,
Mike
OK
Gawuss, Nov 07 2008
Ok, I quit... I seriously can't play this game anymore.
Down to the grave
Gawuss, Nov 06 2008
Hello. I'm not going to whine that much even though I'd like to and I've been doing it every day since the beginning of November (well... acutally since I came back from the USA). This month is not going good at all. I'm down $4,5k and that's just because of me keeping on playing on ongame to clear a fuckin $1k bonus.
I guess I will get a coach soon.
Ok so I am going to update my blog more frequently because I started attending an english course in October and I want to use some of the cool vocabulary and grammar I learned there to make it become my second nature.
If there's any mid/high-stakes player who would like to help me improve my game and manage my anger plz PM me. I'd really appreciate it because that's exactly what I need now.
