Those wily Czech devil-worshippers Pulda and Joe convinced me to play a $44 6max MTT with them. It might be like the 10th MTT I've ever played in my life.
Greatttt Successsssss.
Edit:
Also figure I should throw in here that upon further review I think I will be chasing Supernova Elite.
Let's hope this post doesn't incite an epic downswing
I have been having some hot sessions at NL50 and I will be at NL100 in no time. Even after cashing out $300 at $1450 earlier today (which ePassporte raped me and took like $40~ for the withdrawl) I opened up eight tables and I am back up to $1560~ after being at $1150 today. Does anyone have any tips for NL100? I am going to take a shot at 18-20 buyins and drop down if I lose three buy-ins. Any tips are greatly appreciated!

"did you see that really fat guy with the hat in the intro"
"yeh lol who the fuck was that guy"
"no idea, he reminded me of chojja"
"what a fat piece of shit"
"hahahaha"
"how do they know each others positions right at the start without scouting??"
"maybe it´s because you screamed them out so loudly"
"no i don´t think that is the case. these are both pro players"
"chojja was a pro until you screamed at him. now he´s a deaf player. no wonder he loses so much"
So after the debacle that was yesterday (see previous blogpost for details, or don't, probably better for my overall reputation as a non-retard tilt monkey if you don't!!) the first thing I did after breakfast today was sit down and 4 table 2/5 again. I had decided that I would move down if I dropped down to 13k (I'm actually not sure exactly how much I have, because the £ sign can't be displayed on this computer without me rebooting and I have cashed out and stuff, but it was probably around 4 more buyins from where I was when I started today).
Anyway, I'm feeling alright, focused, brain working unlike yesterday, and 5 minutes in I get stacked QQ vs KK. But today is different, today I was not to be tilted. Felt nothing, reloaded, continued playing, and finished up after playing some poker that I was very happy with.
There were a few hands that I think I misplayed, but overall I am very happy with my decisions and such today.
(Note: for the majority of my session yesterday I was happy with how I played, just at the end I totally lost it, thankfully I had the presence of mind to instaquit after giving a buyin away).
So, graph from yesterday:
Today:
So basically today and yesterday cancelled eachother out (with a tiny bit of profit).
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/366672 - Thank you, thank you sooo much CaptZeebo (if this doesn't make sense to you, I'm refering to the Zeebo theorem, ie, people never fold full houses, so overbet for value if you have a hand like mine).
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/366892 - One of my notes on him said "Doesn't like to fold", thought I was valuebetting all 3 streets not just the river
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/366893 - Couldn't decide if I should bet river or not, I sort of wanted to just because it's a card I'd use to 3barrel a lot, but meh.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/366897 - Ok, I'm not sure I love my play here.. Hm, the guy minbetting is really bad, I checked cause when he minbets and the other guy calls, I definitely have the caller (who seems like a good player) beat, and the donk can have a veeeeeeeeeeery wide range, and is probably calling a lot of that. But then he instaminraises me and I go wtf. I'm not sure what I'd have done in the moment on a complete blank turn.. Maybe I'd have wimped out but I think because of how bizzarre he plays I might have forced myself to call.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/366904 - Don't like my play here. On the turn I think I instachecked (hoping he'd bluff some draw that missed on the river), then when he bets 20 on the river I was really confused about what to do.
It kind of looked like he wanted to bet 200 but typoed? I'm not sure.
Eitherway I ended up making a stupid minraise hoping he'd do something spazzy, which I think was kinda stupid .
Better to raise to like 180 or something, I think he might call it reasonably light since he might think he induced it.
I guess two other options would be to felt the flop or bet/call turn, but I didn't think he was gonna go apeshit bananas with like AJ here (obv AJcc).. MAYBE AQ? I dunno. Anyway, I think I played it pretty poorly on the river
In other news.. Had second MMA class today (meant to go twice before but the first time I couldn't decide if I was going at first and then suddenly it was too late to get there in time, oops, the second time I read the time wrong on the schedule, double oops).
Anyway, I did some MMA a few years back but quit cause of time contstraints (which is a nice way of saying I wanted to get into the top 32 in the TLTour ladder.. got like 38th or 34th or something, booh). I missed it but always put off going back for some reason, so it feels great to be back.
Also awesome that unlike last time, I'm not dying of exhaustion after the training, I guess running paid off (still not in great shape obviously). Takedown/throws fucking kills you tho, grappling, standup, it's not THAT exhausting, but having to do that and then get up and down/throw people is sick hard on you.
New Years resolutions, status update:
- Sleeping schedule: FIXED (god I feel sooooooo much better sleeping at reasonable hours).
- MMA: started =]
- Go: Ehh, need to get to this one..
- Poker.. ........ I bought a wii. And I've been lazy. I think I've managed 6k hands this month. Hopefully when my 30" monitor arrives from the PS store I will get my shit in gear and do some serious playing
I'm really happy with how I've progressed just between this and last month. I managed to implement many things that I wanted to, and it's really showing in my play I think (ie my att to steal is much, much, much higher than before, my W$WSF has shot WAY up, and in general I'm playing more poker and less 'make big hand, win money, make no hand, lose money').
I think I should work on defending my big blind a bit more tho, right now it's pretty low, but not entirely sure what's optimal.
So to summarize, while I haven't played much, and certainly haven't been killing the games in the tiny sample I have, I'm confident I'm on the right track now and hopefully I can get into a good rhytmn.
So can I get my username changed atleast, I wont troll and pretend Im some tranny anymore but atleast some of you have to admit some of the stuff was semi-hysterical at some points. Would like username to be NemoInDeniaL
If we can change my username can I Kr8 another account or something. Anyways Im heading out to vegas for the next couple days and prolly gonna look at some rooms for rent but if anybody needs a roommate heres my bio
22Male/Outside Smoker/Clean
Can Pay 3-12+ Months of rent in Advance or Month to Month w/e you prefer
Basically be in my room playing poker nonstop or playing live,not in your way period .
Anybody got a room for rent, I can give 3-12 months in advance or go to month to month, All I intend to do is play poker online and live for about 90% of my time, completely out of your way.
Ok, after this blog entry I swear to god I will never use another lame 2+2 phrase to title my blog posts, but this is just too fitting...
This is my January so far. Look's pretty fun eh? Anyone like that +15k upswing in the middle? I liked it! First 10k hands of the month I ran like death of shit. Then the next 15k hands I ran like God. Then I hit another little slump towards the end. To be honest, the past couple days I've been sloppy and not playing my best game. Pretty disappointed in myself for that, but I'm definitely going to get more focused in this upcoming week. There is still over a week left in January so I hope I can rebound from this little downswing.
Pretty sweet swings for the most part. I love this game lol...
