seriously, rednines is fucking trash. underdog always win.
QQ v 87 on the bubble all in pre, i flop set, board straights on the river, i bust in next few hands
AJ in 5max, i raise, flop Axx on all spade board, ship it to some douche who flops flush with K5
AA v 55, flop has 5, standard bullshit
T9 v T8, of course flop has two 8's on it
K4s in BB, limped pot. i flop flush. turn is a heart. all in, ship it to the ace.
AJ v KQ v A3 all in pre, of course queen hits river.
I will not be playing poker tonight so I'll talk a bit about the night after my casino tourney cash.Me and some friends went to direleifs house for a cash game.Here are some of the memorable hands......
First hand that tilts me is my friend slowrolling a rivered flush to beat my nut straight. Couldnt recover.
In another hand against the same opponent the game is omaha hi lo. I flop the nut flush and there is no low draw. I check the flop and Justin checks behind me. Turn brings a non threatening 5 so i decide to bet,Justin calls and the river pairs the board.
At this point I am not putting him on a runner runner full house. I decide to bet and he immediatly reraises me. I call and Justin turns over pocket fives for the runner runner boat.
In another high low hand I end up making a nut flush on the river with no low possible and no board pair. It's a big pot so I decide to put the rest of my chips in. My opponent calls to which I declare...NUT FLUSH....My opponent smiles and says......STRAIGHT FLUSH.
by chance i came across rappelz which is produced by the same people who made flyff and like 6 other games.
first impressions:
1. 1.2 gig install with another gig of patching
2. graphics are similar to those in 2moons, more special effects but less detail (2moons has grass flowing all over the place for example).
3. runs well on low graphic settings on my laptop
4. maps are bigger + less linear/more interesting than those in 2moons (i'm guessing...only seen the newbie area so far
5. you choose 1 of 3 races, 'good', 'neutal' or 'evil. each race has male+female character with 6 faces, 2 hair colours and 3 hairstyles to choose from.
6. each race allows you to join 1 of 3 professions: a fighter, a summoner and a magic-user.
7. for example, 'good' race fighter is paladin style, 'evil' race fighter is assassin style.
8. at lv 50 you then specialise in 1 of 2 subprofessions. 'good' magic-user (cleric) will become high priest (more buffs+heals) or bishop (offensive holy magic).
9. other features: all characters can summon a mount OR a creature to assist them in battle. these level up with you and have their own skills and evolution levels. the 'summoner' classes focus on buffing their creatures and can also use 2 creatures at once, so are very powerful in lategame when their summons are more reliable.
10. PK. normal mmo pk, you can kill in non-safe-zones but after a few kills get massive penalties to your stats until you kill npcs for ages to get your stats back. there is a 'hardcore pk' server but the system is so insanely fucking stupid i wont go into detail but basically it ONLY detracts from the pk experience, and does so MASSIVELY.
summary:
yes this looks very funky =) the graphics are attractive, except when you zoom out a little the characters lose their clarity (but up close they're very nice). it had a MASSIVE patch this year to help fix balance issues.
reading the forums, it's kinda disheartening to hear people say that their class sucks (pk or pve) and that they simply dont use/advance a lot of skills because they are 'useless skills'.
i really wanted to make a 'good' race 'holy warrior' -> 'divine solider' (basically offensive paladin route) but unfortunately i just dont find the female customisation for that race attractive. the LAST thing i wanted to play was a 'nature magic' neutral race, but the chick is just so damn fine i had no choice =) i considered making a fighter but they seem to suck at pk. i HATE HATE druid classes (don't ask me why), and the 3rd option was the summoner (i hate summoner classes too). i'm still deciding what to pick but i might just settle with the summoner - apparently possibly the best class for pk, but long time before it becomes any good.
lastly, well i'm still contemplating the hardcore pk server. i'll go back and read more of the forum. but unfortunately i'm 99% sure it's worthless
Im always being attacked here dont you guys know to treat a lady. Im a girl Im suppose 2 be a attention whore espically when the male to female ratio is in the males favor.
I try to impress you guys and I feel Im doing the exact opposite. I love Poker, Im a winning player, and Im trying to be the best I can possibly be, but sometimes I get the feeling you guys think im some donkey that is the luckiest player ever.
A few days had passed and It was back to casino ABS for the thursday $55 dollar buyin tournament.Direleif joined me once again.I took my seat at the table thinking it would be my typical bustout with the best hand but tonight was different....WHY YOU ASK????.....I HAD BUDWEISER..THATS WHY!!!!
Everyone starts the tournament with 5k in chips and after the first uneventful hour i was stuck with my original 5k stack,the second hour brought memorable hands and a definitive increase in my chipstack,lets take a look at a couple of hands! in the most memorable hand of the second hour i had pocket 4's and called a raise from an early position player who was sitting with around 4k, flop comes down A 4 3 and he quickly moves all in, I instacall and he shows A 5 turn bricks and the river is a 4 giving me QUAD 4's. then i win a coinflip all in where I am holding AK against my opponents QQ.
I finish the second break sitting at about 15 thousand chips.Everything continued to go well until there were 2 tables left.I had worked my stack up to be the huge chipleader with about 50 thousand in chips,but then after just 2 hands i was down to 9 thousand in chips.After stealing my way back to 15k it is announced that there will be a break and then we will start the final table 11 handed with 6 paid.
Direleif also joined me at his first casino final table sitting with about 10k in chips and after a little while we both managed to make the money.shortly after direleif and another player were eliminated in 5th and 6th place which meant one thing to me. MORE MONEY!!!! To make a long story short i basically survived the bingo blinds to eventually finish in second place and take home fivr hundred and eighty five dollars for my efforts. I can only hope that there will be many more live cashes to come.
i played in a capcom vs snk 2 tourney over the weekend. got 7th out of 17. not too bad since it was my first tourney. my first round was against the winner of last months tourney, and i was SOOOOOOOO close to winning... i hella choked. that would've been sweet if me, a 'nobody', sent the 1 seed into losers first round. oh wells, better luck next time.
also had my first day at my new job: some clothing store. pretty easy.
Hello fellow bloggers,Im new to this whole poker blogging experience and would like to introduce myself.I am known on all the pokersites by my username PHILROCKS123.
Although i lost so much money on POKERSTARS a while back that I ended up blocking myself. Months passed and I started craving online poker again so I figured I would create a new account. I came up with Annete_15 as my new username.... and I must say it was BIG MISTAKE. I am constantly labelled as a poser online and a scam artist,but I think this is just because I dominate my opponents so ferociously, you could even say that I am BETTER than Annete_15..jkjkjk....OR AM I!!!!!!
Part of the reason I decided to get liquidpoker was because my friend has it.You all know him on here as Wilswils,he's the guy who is constantly talking about his variance,bad beats,bankroll management etc...
Another friend who I know that has liquidpoker goes by the username direleif,most likely because whenever he plays against me I have him in dire straits. But we will hear much more about these two DONKS in my future blog entrys.
Let's start with How my week went in poker,no online poker this week as I am waiting for direleif to deposit funds to send me online.But there were some good live game moments this week courtesy of THE GOOD OL CASINO.
Me and Direleif made our way down to CASINO ABS and put on names on $1/$2 no limit hold em cash game list. To my suprise we both got seated immediately at the same table with Direleif sitting directly to my left.
I sit down and the first hand I see is pocket 10's. The UTG player raises to 10 dollars and I flat call. Action folds around to the button who makes it 106 dollars all in.
Now back on the UTG raiser and he tanks, after about 3 minutes of thinking he folds.
Action back on me now and I am sure that the button raiser has a hand like AQ or AK.So i figure it's 50/50 and I feel like gambling so I push my chips in and declare LETS GAMBLE. Sure enough the button raiser turns over AJ offsuit to which the UTG raiser says damnit I folded jacks. Sure enough an ace comes on the flop....BUT SO DOES A 10. Now my stack is sitting at 340 dollars(started with $200).
After I win a couple more pots They decide to move me to a new table. As I sit down at my table I notice 2 young guns controlling the table,one is a dirty french canadian and the other is a baller asian guy, they both seem very arrogant. After watching the french assassin bully the table for awhile I picked up AK in middle position,french young gun is on the button and he has been playing it very agressively. Action comes around to the button after I limp and sure enough he makes it 20 dollars to go.
I just decide to smooth call and see a flop. Flop comes down A A K and I'm trying to contain my excitement.I calm myself down enough to check to the button.French assassin bets out $45 and I smooth call. Turn comes down a queen and i check again,now he checks behind me.
River comes a brick and I decide to bet out $75 because i think it looks a like a steal bet because I checked the turn.French assassin doesn't buy It and he mucks. After a few more hands I decide to cash out $535, up from my buyin of $200.
I would like some feedback on how everyone thinks I played the AK hand where I flopped the full house.I think I couldve played it better so i'd like to hear from everyone.
Why am I so fucking awful at headsup
First HU attempt ended down 900 at .5/1 (2k hands)
Second ended down.. I dunno, I guess 1.1k (400 .5/1, 700 from some guy I just played at 1/2 since I saw him drop 15 buyins to someone I know.. of course, I'm too fucking horrible to win vs him since I'm either a weaktight retard or a retarded callingstation paying off obvious better hands). Total hands like 6.5k or so this time.
I mean fuck, it's not even about the money, I have enough of a roll for it to not REALLY hurt (I dunno how much I have exactly right now, but if I had to guess I'd say between 8.5k and 9k, although I'm gonna have to cashout about 1.5k that's still a fine roll for 1/2), it's just embarassing I guess.
The problem with this session was that I sat down expecting him to be some kind of magical ATM - I mean, I had just obsed him donate 15 buyins (yes, 15 buyins) by doing things like snapcalling shoves with 3rd pair. I don't think I took a single note or paid any attention to how he was playing until like 10-15 minutes in, I was just not at all in the right state of mind to play and was stupid for doing so.
Of course that was because he was on extreme insane tilt vs him, but not vs me. And by the time I understood that I was already stuck a buyin and I'm much too stubborn to quit when down._.
EDIT: Does anyone know if I can move all my 1/2 handhistories to a new database? I have so many .5/1 ones in my current prima one that it's pretty slow so I want to split them up since I only need the 1/2 ones anyway.
So I decided to actively combat Stars' recent decision to doomswitch me, by wearing a clever disguise at the tables. That way, Stars will have no idea where I am and they can't put the doomswitch on!
I am fucked starting from tomorrow, term papers, presentations, finals, labs, overdue labs... so I spent my weekend by playing poker, going to pub, going to theaters, tv, books, swimming, playing guitar.... which isnt good.
I seriously cant work until the due date is within 24 hours.. why? I tried it just doesnt work I end up doing other things if I am on computer, i spent like 95% of my time on random things when doing research.
but atleast tomorrow gives me only 24 hours to work on shit, i always end up doing allright so hoppefully it wokr this time too but god dammit.
anyways i started by pulling all my papers together and sat down to do some research... I start to listning to music then I just had to record a this since I saw some other covers it on youtube which werent as good IMO.
(PS should really pay me for this):
enjoy and in return if u have a solution ot my problem let me know.
I've spent the last week playing tourneys and managed to win one, for $1,500, while investing around $2,000 in tournaments.
This stint in tournament poker fucked up my cashgame poker too, I went to the casino tonight and kept trying to make stupid tournament plays...Lost $500....idk...im a fucking retard sometimes, after being down $400, I built a $400 stack and lost it on a ridiculous hand..
I don't think I can do this for a living at all..the swings are crushing me and emotionally bringing me to the ground.
I don't know if I'll be playing tomorrow or not for the next ten years.
But I do know that I need more in my life than just poker, I'm going back to school for something I actually want to do.
I'm bust, and near broke.
I got $100 left on stars, and if I lose it I'm quitting poker for good.
i've won a ticket to the 650 pca's in every 25r satellite i've played (ok it's just two but EVERY ONE IVE WON), but I always seem to bust early from the 650. Today was this doozie Submitted by : nolan

. Shortly after I jammed K4o sb vs BB who was 10 VPIP all the way through the 150/300 level, and he snapcalled 33% of his stack with KJo (standard?).
Anyways, at least the month in cash games is going good or I'd be really tilting I think.

I'm going to rant. If you don't want to hear a rant don't read. When I refer to "Idiot Regulars", I'm not talking about this guy that I took a bunch of money from in this hand:
Villan in this hand is playing 79/5/3 (almost never folding preflop)

Sweet, we all see we have a mega-fish at our table who still has a ton of money in his stack. THE LAST THING YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO DO IS BERATE THIS POOR GUY FOR STACKING AK HIGH. DO YOU STUPID FUCKS NOT LIKE MONEY? DOES IT MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD TO PUT THIS GUY DOWN BECAUSE HE SUCKS AT POKER? DO YOU REALLY WANT HIM TO LEAVE THE TABLE??? DO YOU EVER BENEFIT FROM THAT IN ANYWAY!?! Honestly, not only are some of the NL200 regulars bad, they are the biggest fucking retards ever. Wow...
