Maybe not the best idea...
Rhaegar, Jan 09 2008
I thought about those articles I promised to write and realized that I couldn't write that many without giving out too much or making them rather pointless. And teaching people how to play poker is really not that altruistic as it might seem, lol...
So I won't write on a regular basis, but I might write some more articles if I find a worth it topic. I can write a pretty good article about mindset/mistakes/self-control and self-improvement but I wont promise it will be soon.
If you can give me some good ideas, I might write some more.

Tournaments
This is the ability to change your strategy, hand strengths, calling and pushing ranges as blinds and antes rise. It is most useful during tournament play, but is useful in dealing with short stacks in deeper stacked cash game play. It is important to learn tournament skills even for cash game specialists. Strong tournament skills should translate to more tournament cashes and deeper finishes.
Your Tournament Play score of 143 is exceptionally higher than your average score. This score is better than 99.79% of all persons taking this test.
Computational Speed
Solving problems quickly indicates a combination of experience and card sense. Experienced players can often play most hands automatically, and only require significant thought for the most complex situations. Experienced players should easily answer a good amount of the questions on this test, leaving extra time to focus on the more complex situations.
Your Computational Speed score of 125 is exceptionally higher than your average score. This score is better than 95.22% of all persons taking this test.
Hand Selection
It is important choose which hands to play by adjusting for position, stack sizes, and the tendencies of your opponents. Beginners often have no awareness of relative hand strength, often play weak hands out of position, or easily dominated hands against tight opponents.
Your Hand selection score of 118 is exceptionally higher than your average score. This score is better than 88.49% of all persons taking this test.
Everything else is pretty much on avg with everyone else

Ok so i've been grinding at the low level tables from an 8 dollar start from money left on stars from years ago. Tonight I finally broke the 100 mark. Got my roll on all the way up to 109.45. still a long time to grind out to be able to sit nicely at a higher level. With stars playing the sng levels is very tricky cause the 1.20bi the next level is the 3.40 level any one know what the right time to move up to the higher levels or even wait just to sit nicely at the 5.50 tables for the sng. Im a solid tourney player and a pretty decent cash player but its easier for me to grind the tourney table. Anyone have any idea how much of a roll would be perfect to 10 table 5.50 tables.All comments are welcome thanks to all who reply
thanks,
B
Switched back to limit
angryfishes, Jan 08 2008
So there i was grinding NL25 and NL10, got sucked out on the river over and over again, lost to runner runner - the worst things imaginable that could happen, happened.
I played solid poker, but still got tore a new asshole. My bankroll dropped to 220 and I was MAD, TILT MAD. But i still wanted to play. So i switched to limit to avoid spews and viola, in 4 hours my bankroll went back up to 560. Half of that was the $200 bonus which cleared sooooooooo fast at 0.5/1 limit so it means i still made 140 in that session.
I think im gonna give limit another shot now, while i play NL on DTD where my other bankroll is in pounds. Having 2 bankrolls is my busto precaution rofl.

today i probably had the biggest loss in the shortest span of time funny thing is it wasnt that much on suckouts or anything i jsut couldnt hit anything i were outflopped every single time no matter what, i missed all my hands no exeptions, i quickly dropped 2k in 250 hands!, i were upset and managed to have a -4,600 peak loss, so sick, i were definitelly on that time not playing my age but im happy that i did not monkey tilt, i regained composture and went back to my game and grinded my way out a bit to end up only 2.5k down... sick stuff:

CrownRoyal, Jan 08 2008
Soooo
I had a .25 GPA in my last semester of school because im so unmotivated it's sick. I attended class at max 5% of the time - yet still passed every single test. I failed out because they apparently take points off for every day that you dont attend class which was essentially every non test day for me. I think college is pretty retarded and a waste of time considering I can pass all of my tests going in and having not a clue what they are even about.
So, I'm taking a semester off to find myself. I need a job, thus far I have sucked at finding one. I want to get a job + house with friends though ASAPLY.
I'm completely broke at the moment and it sucks, so i desperately need a job, but having little to no luck finding one after maybe 30 minutes of searching.

In other random news, the girl who made me so upset in the past broke up with her boyfriend, snuck out of her house after her curfew (she is 17 and i'm 18) and her dad caught her, she ignored him and we spent a night together where she dropped a very serious L bomb on me and proceeded to give me the greatest sex of all time, I got off not once, not twice, but THREE times in one session. My dick is still sore, but all is well. I'm really not sure what love even is cause ive never been in love really, but I do know that I like her a lot? I dont know that I love her but she asked me how I felt and I couldn't even give her a good solid response, however I'm an insanely good bullshitter and still left her feeling very happy/good even though she didn't get an answer she was looking for.
ANDDDDDDDD lastly, I think I've decided my life plan.
-I'm gonna get a house + job for now, start attending school again most likely in the fall
-Go to school + work and live out my young years and hopefully experience everything I want out of them
-Get a new good job and start investing very young and hopefully be well enough invested that after 10 years or so be able to quit working all together and become a writer or politician or something, I think I really have a gift and ability that I can share with this world, or at least I hope that I do, and im way too smart to work my whole life or something.
-be very successful + rich and hopefully can pass prosperity on to all of my family
this blog is so longwinded and random, i can only see the tl;dr's coming already.

Yo I met mad ballers today and Full Ring legends like Treysfull and Dilith it was sweet.
I also went to Nobu with a big crowd and got crunked it was cool. Pinball is now my favorite viking, Saki used to be cool but has rescinded his viking status.
Cheers.
Cool pictures;











Yo this last pic is of me and Tony playing vs. our buddies Sam and John. It's in the lobby of the casino on a marble table which means we are baller and is therefore mega sick and dope. This might be the most baller thing we have ever done as the locals were too awe-struck to kick us off.
Cheers, hope all is well.
-Sean.

alaskan crab tacos, maybe the most baller thing ever.

i run good maybe most second baller thing ever.

Wait, I can't do math. It was a +13 BI session.
Running super duper hot.
TheHuHu, Jan 07 2008
I am 12-tabling Nl25 for about two hours and playing my A-game and bluff catching a lot. I haven't looked at my cashier yet because I hate looking at my BR while I play. I will update my winnings in an hour or two. I suspect I'm up at least ten buy-ins so far.
