New car poll
JohnnyBologna, Jan 30 2015
Poll: which car to get?
(Vote): acura tsx
(Vote): hyundai genesis sedan
(Vote): other?
Both are 2012 cars. used at car max around 20k with like 30-50k miles.
So shoot away your opinions good or bad! i just need info.
just moved to florida and dont have a car. will be sharing with my wife. price range is around 20k dollars want a relatively new lightly used car around 2010 and up. i am 27 years old i dont want anything super fancy like bmw or mercedes. i feel uncomfortable driving those types but i do want a little 'pezaz' that im not driving a boring ass car.
the genesis is more luxury and a little more expensive so i dunno if im suitable for that type of car? it uses a little more gas and is bigger so i dunno if i should be more conservative and get the 4 liter tsx or just yolo it? the genesis kind of looks like a bentley knock off with their new winged logo tho. just my thought let me know!
Another one bites the dust.. long busto post.

I've been around poker for a while now. probably over couple million hands played. supernova on stars every month back then when it was still around. money wise, ive probably lost this much when i took shots at 5/10, 10/20 once or twice only back then for -15k. However, I played like a complete aggro spewtard and lost all of it in a day swearing i would never do that again. Fast forward to today, ive been losing for 2-3 months now feeling all shooken up to that point where you question yourself about your game.
It all started early in the year. I was doing quite pleasingly well despite being out the game since black friday(April, 2011 for those unfamiliar). i deposited 1k on bovada and grinded up to 20k or so using my 1 check cashout limit for 3k each month. I remember saying this is pretty cool. "im gona play and get a paycheck at the beginning of each month like a normal job" Then it all started.
So here I am winning, feeling all confident about my skills and whatnot, take a shot at 5/10. Thinking "It's probably the same game just more money to be won." I enter two table cautiously, maybe a little too cautiously that i already feel like im playing scared money fml. But i dont want to go crazy like before and instantly drop a few buyins.
I still remember the hand that started it. I get JJ in the small blind "okay not so bad." utg+1 limps hi-jack isolates him for a pretty big raise like 60-65. Of course everyone is anonymous and i dont know what the hell is going on and just smooth call like the girl i am cuz i dont want to raise and get it in. Long story short I lose like half my stalk if not more to A-7 offsuit. not too long later i get stacked by some running straight of the sort and am stuck two buyins.
Okay, these guys are too good for me time to go back to my 2/4. grind all night and lose 3k there. log off and mope around for a week feeling depressed now (yay for poker). Dust off my shoulders and say im okay lets go again. play another 10+ hour session down another 2k. rinse and repeat till im down to like my last 1600 bucks. Time to swallow my pride move down $1/$2
Days go by and im ready again. Nope, i cannot win this tug-o-war and i see myself slipping nearer as i lose 1100 at $1/$2 today. O-joy i got 500 bucks left and fire up nl .5/$1 and lose about 100 dollars there after another long session. Maybe you only remember certain things you want to remember when you lose, but all i can remember is 3-bet pot, flop set, guy check folds. i got K-J on a J-x-x bored and crying call river and losing of course. I raise, get re-raised i fold etc etc.
Replaying all the hands that went to showdown in my head, the money won@showdown was not just not there. And unless you can play like isildur, what can ya really do?
So here I am now. 390 bucks left on this account probably soon to be busto. Don't plan on depositing again if it does bust. Hopefully I get my ftp money back soon and stars can come back so I can play on there again. Anyways, just another sad story here. Pre-black friday poker was so good and profitable for me. Quit for 2 years to play a little live, haven't quit got the hang of that yet either lol, come back to these anonymous 4 tables max and run like this.
CLIFFS :
-Won maybe 1 or 2 sessions in last 3 months
-Run bad (So I say)
-Busto?
My life goals
JohnnyBologna, Aug 09 2013
Hello Friends,
Since poker allows of freedom and downtime, one must set goals to accomplish to have purpose in life. Therefore, I picked things that most interested me and what I thought would also be somewhat meaningful/useful in life.
Dancing - I remember going to the club with a group of friends about 2 years ago and was dancing on my own having a good time being buzzed and these black girls told my friends that I couldn't dance. I didn't give a fck and keep dancing anyways. It must have been embaressing for my friends but i got no shame.
Anywho, the plan is to use my X-Box kinect and play Dance central/Justdance and unlock all the levels. Next time there is a social gathering or party at least I will be able to bust some moves and show people whats up.
Learning a new language - My wife is Vietnamese so that will be the most convenient and best language for me to learn. Right now she still speaks to me in English all the time but I am slowly persuading her to speak to me in vietnamese even tho she gets annoyed at me sometimes. Her parents are also living with us to help take care our 10 month year old son and they only speak vietnamese so they help out once in a while. Vietnamese will eventually come to me in maybe 2-3 years? who knows depends on how movitvated i am. After that I want to learn another language like spanish/chinese but I have no idea how I will do that. Rosetta stone maybe? one step at a time anyways.
Being able to speak another language is one of the best assets you can have in life whether it be traveling, doing business, or just being able to communicate with others i believe.
Learn Piano - I love the way this shit sounds. So many songs played on piano sound just so fcking beautiful and elegant. Learning to play this shit would help me not only with achieving one of my goals in life, but mentally sooth / therapy for soul in a sense.. so to speak. I also hear girls wet themselves over guys who can play instruments so that a bonus.
Gameplan for this is there is a guy on youtube named lypur. Watch and learn all his videos until i can learn sheet music then basically just spend hours and hours of alone time practicing playing this wonderful instrument. Will need to buy an electric keyboard or something for like 500 bucks I think is the right price range for a quality one.
Peace out yall.
-Johnny
Live Games!
JohnnyBologna, Dec 17 2010
working on my live game as of late. playing mostly at thundervalley in norcal. so far haven't been very consistent as i am online. will have a a lot of losing days from being annoyed of not playing as many hands as online then every once in a while ill have a big payday, which kinda evens it out. the players are still terrible live, i just need to put more hours before i can constantly beat the game. i think im getting the hang of it 
Numbers for stake
JohnnyBologna, Mar 25 2010
First time staking someone so what do you guys think is fair under these conditions?
Trained room mate to play 1c/2c and 2c/5c which he won like 200-300 bucks over 80k hands online and we are gonna go play 1/3 live at a casino.
I give him 300 bucks to play, no make up or anything.

Birthday Ideas?
JohnnyBologna, Nov 05 2009
Well Im one year older now whoopdie doo 22. I kinda found birthdays pointless now because anything I want I can just buy myself thanks to poker. I guess Ive outgrown the Happy Birthday song with the cake/candles etc. Which leaves the last and only good part, an excuse to just hang out. So far I got dinner, movie, then playing drunken 'Taboo' lol. Some things to do that are hip nowadays? I guess I have been playing poker too long that Im living under a rock. Is going to the arcade acceptable at my age? lol
