Memoir

Hi guys, long time no see

I stopped playing poker in August. I had to cash out a lot, due to living expences and some health problems /i'm fine now, thx/, and because my health problems, i've had no intentions to start playing poker again. I left 300 bucks on my account in PS, saying "well maybe one time.."

I recovered fully, went back to the university, i am taking classes, i have a beautiful girlfriend, who i love the most in this world, everything is fine! Well, almost perfect: the exams are coming, to be honest i don't have time to take a shit sometimes... :S Fuck this, back to poker:

3 days ago i realized, my brain is full, i can't learn any more that day. Usually i watch some series at times like that /BSG, SG, West Wing and Last Vegas forever! /, but my eye stuck on the PokerStars icon. AND i double clicked on it...

Obv i'm playing again, with motivation, but i can't play much, exams are coming... I restarted NL10, went back to 400$, and toke a shot @NL25. Graph time:



Well i'm back! Poker is going great, and because i love this game, and this site, i decided i'll get involved in this community. Posting threads, answering, etc...

We'll see how it goes, gl everyone!

I swear, u can't run worse against donks, like u do in the weekends sometimes. Godd reads, bad results = loss. Is there something like "cursed computer"? On the weekends, i travel to my mother /i live in my own house during weekdays, but i always visit my mom weekends/, and play on her comp. I never ever can run good, fuck, not even normal here ^^ I always lose 3-6 buyins here, dunno why. I have the exact same "poker config" on my PC what i have here, so that cant be a problem. Oh well, whatever

Today i continued this streak, lost 3 buyins, but i managed to win it back, so i'm happy

Hands like this can help too:

God, i hate these days. First, i couldn't sleep well, only slept about 5 hours. My usual is 7-8 hours, so this day wasn't started good. Ok, nevermind, let's start my session. Things went quite well, not great, but ok. Then suddenly all the donks started to make hands against me, my cbets were raised by regs and nits, and i found myself in a -2.5 bi losing streak. What the...

Ok, no problem, let's stop a little bit, nad i will win it back. After 2 hours of break, i started playing again. Fuck that, i was breaking even /which mens still -2 bi/. Not a big deal, but i told myself: i will not stop until i get a winning day from this crap.

I managed to get even, but this was exhausting...



Besides poker, i'm enjoying the summer. I finally bought an air conditioner, fuck, that's a great stuff! I finished my exams last week, so this summer will be all about poker, beer on the beach, and having fun /with my gf /. I can't wait my vacation in Greece. I'll be going in August, with my gf, the best friend of mine and his gf. 10 days in Greece, doing nothin but sightseeing, partying and swimming in the sea!

I wish the best of you guys /and girls/, gl all!

June was a horrible month for me. In the last week of May, i lost ~1k /800 on my birthday - no i wasn't drunk that time, just after that /, and that tendency continued in June. I couldn't win, no matter what i did. After 2 weeks of losing in June, i realized i have to take a break from poker. So i did. On the last week i started to play again, but without motivation. I was feeling bad about my game, yet i still managed to get a breakeven month, which isnt so bad i guess. No graphs or stats, i played on 2 computers, 1 with PT and 1 without, whatever.

On Saturday /4 days ago/ i decided to get back to the grind with full strenght. ~2k hands/day, get back my platinumstar status /which i obv lost in June, fuck/, and the ultimate goal is to be at NL100 is July, with cashing out ~400 /i have to cash out cuz of living expences/. The Stars promo couldn't come better: it motivates me even more.

I played 6k hands in the last 3 days, and to my greatest surprise, i'm playing good! I didn't expect it, it makes me feel happy. I don't have to say anything, i let the pics talk:





I hope this continues!

gl all!

I dont dare to say i'm recovering now. Nope, the past taught me well about swings ^^ I'm back to NL50, playing 4 tables, something like 19/16. I'm trying to be more aggressive pf /3-4bet, squeezing/, i'm practicing that. SO FAR it goes well If u could take shots in middle July, i'll be more than happy. Oh, and i'm platinumstar btw! :D

I just wanted to tell you guys, that in the last 2 weeks, i'm experiencing a poker player's nightmare. I lost half of my roll. Barely rolled to NL50, 2 weeks ago, i was playing NL100. No graph or stats, i dont give a shit about it anymore.

brb, i need a shot

SO after my 12 buyin loosing streak in 3 days, im recovering slowly. My confidence was crushed /isn't anymore, the morons always help me (AA vs 22 pf allin fullstacks )/, i aws playing bad, and running like shit. I made back 4 buyins in 2 days, which isn't that great, but after today, i feel good Look at this:



started great, got worse, great again, and then: downhill! Nothing worked, i just lost all the pots, but his beauty helped my day:
