As I said in my new years resolutions, I told myself I needed to be more committed to playing more hands each month. In January I did exactly that, plugging in over 50,000 hands, something I haven't done since June of last year. Overall, the month felt really really rough. I started off down close to $8000, and had to grind back up to even from there. Variance is a bitch, but after my mid-month godly run (Ship the +$16k upswing), I ended up around 13k which is pretty solid for me:
For those of you wondering what that -$700 is in the 1/2 heads-up section... that was the day DooMeRFD tilted the shit out of me by nut peddling our heads-up match. Fucking die nit Here is my hourly for the month. Sadly it doesn't really compare to my December hourly, but I'm not going to complain because it's better than any job I can get right now anyways:
$158/hr not bad at 22 years old I guess. So far this month has treated me nicely as well. Been on a nice heater at the start and that has put me up to a pretty nice amount. I've been really sick recently which has limited the time I can actually play poker though (DON'T PLAY POKER WHEN UR SICK! IT'S ALL BAD!). Here is my month so far:
Life is good when you run good I suppose ! Need to start picking up the playing, as I really want to reach 50k hands again by the end of the month.
As i were jumping on the rocks that was the tought that went through my mind "please dont roll... not again... not again" *rolls* "ah for fucks sake!!!" *violently punches the windshield while the car rests upside down.
So you might wonder wtf im talking about, well as some of u know i race rally and i has a massive massive crash on November where i somehow survived, this was the first race of the year with a new car, all the rally went great but at 200m before finishing the race (yes... two fucking hundred meters!!!) there is a small jump, and as soon as i land a *clunk* noise catches my attention and 30meters ahead the car suddenly pulls to the left of the road and there was nothing i could do on a straightaway doing arround 150kmh i go out of the road jumping on rocks and the car then landed on the noise flipping over:
so 2 rolls in consecutive races at high speed straight aways for mechanical issues... and you tought you were unlucky.
in other news, took down a $3 45man and got two 5ths and a 6th out of the 7 i played today...yes i said i gave up SNGs but penny stakes are boring unless you 10 table them
EDIT - i just started playign this game called Rudra no Hidou...it's pretty cool. it's for super nintendo but it's japanese only. there's an english ROM though. you make your own spells.
and apperently liquidpoker is a fire element spell that hits everyone...seems about right
its been awhile since i wrote in here just because poker really hasnt been that interesting until a month ago. For some reason my tilt problem all of a sudden died down and i really dont tilt anymore. I used to get pissed if AK ran into AA or KK or QQ ran into AA or just a bad beat but now its just like uh ok cool il win that buyin back in a couple hundred hands. Ive been doin well lately and realized bankroll managemnet is deff the key to winning in poker. So ive been playing 25nl and 50nl and been running pretty good and playing pretty good. Thanks to the poker videos on donkeytest.com and sniderstyles 100nl. They really helped me out especially my 3 betting and everything. Il post some graphs just because i like to look at other peoples and maybe you guys like doin the same?
This Weekend (Feb 8-10)
Hands from every limit i played on my new computer
I have money to play in most of the tournaments for sunday but i'd rather not use it and leave myself playing some gay stake that would tilt me, plus im not really rolled for most of them so i'll offer my services to play in absolutely any tournament with a buyin of $5 or more but preferably more than that
So most certainly im looking for a stake in the sunday 100g, but beyond that i dont really have a schedule or anything but im sure there are some good ones to play in.
Ideas for staking I have to make this easy: You send me X amount of dollars and I play in as many tournaments as I can with that money. When I am finished at the end of the day I send you your X dollars back + 50% profits OR if there is less than X left you get all of it back.
Had to post this before I went to sleep. I'm terribly sick right now, and am trying to get over this stupid fever so I can go surfing again. Anyways, I totally have a celebrity crush... her name is Shiri Appleby, the star of the not so hit sci-fi series Roswell (even thou it's one of my favorite series of all time). She is also in that pretty terribly made movie called Swimfan, the suspenseful triller based around...swimming? Ooooh scary! But please, lets not judge Shiri on her less than stellar acting skills, or the lack of fame from all the roles she has played which have ended sour ... Because when it comes down to it... she is fucking beautiful:
Clip from the ABC show "Six Degrees", she plays a side character named Anya
I can marry this woman. She is so hot to me and I really don't know why... Btw, can someone please find me a link to the torrent for this season of Six Degrees? I can't seem to find them... I can only get download links to individual episodes which are poorly seeded.

$2 tourny cuz i'm broke haha i got a parking ticket today for trying to use a daily pass from yesterday at my school's parking lot. so i had to cash out $50 (the ticket was 32) which cut my BR in half. so now i have to grind super micro stakes. oh well. they're really soft anyways.
My first stake (12 $4 180 mans) of the day sucked profit wise, i lost my staker 25 dollars getting only one cash which was like 7th or something, gay.
Later today, local luckbox and the village whore astromech/pacifist who was in my very first starcraft clan and is a guy ive known for over 7 years probably told me that his money was lucky money and was convinced if he staked me to play in twelve $12 180 turbos that we would both profit immensely. His only condition was that I only play 6 of them at a time.
I just finished the first set of these and scored a 2nd and 3rd place victory (shipit) for a ~250 profit for both of us. I'm starting my next set now and hopefully they will be equally lucrative.
Dunno why I posted this really, but anyways, back to the grind.

all of my bluffs have been going horrendously wrong lately, i put them on exact hands and they are still calling. Maybe I should start giving people less credit. I obv didn't put him on a six, but i did think he had absolutely nothing which is pretty much what a 6 is there, he SNAP called too. Ugh, I dunno, maybe it was a stupid bluff, but i def have no problem playing a J or JJ like that
It feels like I'm cold but I'm not. I'm sitting here and I'm almost trembling and it feels like im spasming or something. There is also a light pressure on my chest that is hard to describe. I drank last night but I don't think that has anything to do with it. It's actually kinda scary, i dunno wtf is going on.
First of all I'm a very bad investment to be staked, i fucked some people out of money and I have every intention of paying them back even though it wasn't part of the deal I'm an honest person.
Second of all I want all of you to know that you should never long term stake me, I'm too shitty with my emotions sometimes.
All of this said, I'm pretty safe for some very short term investments.
Will any of you stake me to play like one session of $4.40 180 mans (Talking like 12 or so of them) The terms of the stake are you get the initial money back that you sent me (or whatever is left) + 50% profits
you can see my stats in for them on sharkscope, i used all of my searches out of boredom already but im pretty sure my ROI in them is ~90% or so
So I must admit, the majority of the forum was right on me being such a degen. I've been breaking down what makes me degen and tilty, and figure the only way im gonna beat it is to play way overrolled.
I'm going to stick to 180 man SnG's for the most part, and do small stakes tournaments as well.
I'm finished with HU, for a long time atleast.
Oh yeah, Frinkx is a faggettttttttt (<3 Rob)
