Stupid wrist/hand/elbow/shoulder pain! by Night2o1, October 03


MEH My joints are whack, my mousing wrist definitely has some kind of carpal tunnel going on. Thing is it disrupts me and "hurts most" when I'm grinding poker, and it bothers me less when I am playing a videogame. I don't click nearly as much when I'm playing poker as when I'm playing a video game (ie 600 hands/hour in poker vs 30-1hour games on hon at 100APM). I don't get it. Am I just more zoned into the videogame and I power through it more easily? I dunno, but it really disrupts my poker grind.. its legitimately very uncomfortable.. I really want to know what to do about it


Well in other news, I have seldom felt like myself for like 14 months now. I've just broken down a lot from where I used to be mentally and my ability to be comfortable and confident. My failure to move up at poker and my not giving myself any other outlets for improving myself has ground me down to a shell of what I ought to be. And honestly I feel like I should at least, physically, be in the best shape of my life, because these are my prime years where 30 years from now I want to be able to look back and be happy with what kind of mischief I was upto.

And it isn't that I'm unhappy with poker, really its not about poker exactly, its about having a balance in my life. And I feel like something that will really help me get my head right again, for everything, is to get physically active. I'm going to set up my gym membership and call a tennis coach on Tuesday (have stuff to do monday). I really need to change things up because I feel so damn numb and, far from my previous ambitious self, I haven't been able to work myself up to grind like I ought to, or even think of the future as having any hope. And that sucks.



My joints are seriously whack though.. :/

3 Days...30k VPP, 3.5k day by Joeingram1, October 03


3 Days into my 300k VPP for the month prop bet and I am right on pace with 30k vpp. Played a few short sessions today and ended up a bunch playing 1/2 and 2/4 plo. Ran just about about EV actually which surprised me since I figured I had to run pretty well to be up that much for the day. Probably will play some since Im trying to get on a sleep schedule that will allow me to be awake between 10-12pst because that is when 24+ games of what I am playing run, whereas overnight I have to mix in some 2/4 and even then there are not 24 tables running the whole time. I feel like I'm getting better at PLO (only took a 100k hands) so hopefully can continue on the winning ways. Only one losing session so far this month out of a bunch.



Here is graph/stats for the day

VPP Count: 30,071

groundwork by tloapc, October 03


I made my last blog for multiple reasons. After making it, I had alot of stuff going on and I wanted to start updating here to keep myself focused but I decided not to do this until I got situated better and so I turned that into a mini private goal. This ended up being a wise motivating move. My end of the month deadline was for quite a lot of things, both personal and business wise, and suffice to say with an awesome finish I passed with flying colors

http://www.imageshuffle.com/images/70kipyes.gif


I made some HUGE solid steps in that month. Looking back, I felt like this was me
+ Show Spoiler +

I feel totally accomplished! The first huge step? I am finally out of debt!~~~!!!~!~! C O M P L E T E L Y~!#~!@
This is an amazing feeling really. After what feels like an eternity, I have finally set it up so that I am totally in the positive now. In fact it makes me so happy I'm writing the rest of this blog in green.

Not only are all my debts paid off but barring some big event, I have completed my move scenario for the time being and I think I have it setup so all my major bills should be paid off until the end of this year. You know what this means? This means the next 3 months are my best chance in a long time to actually get somewhere as far as a real poker bankroll. Time to get really motivated~

But before I go more indepth as to where I currently am and my future goals, I want to wrap up the gist of the past events. As I mentioned before, my computer died and so I've been on my laptop. This has actually been a pretty big learning event in itself as I've had to adapt and readjust in many little ways I didn't realize I was taking for granted. My laptop is far from gosu and so I've started a process of reformatting and wiping it every month or whenever it feels sluggish or slow in order to keep it rolling as efficiently as possible. I've already done it twice and I am saying this bit of info because I want to make the note here that I have not been saving any databases of handhistories and I doubt I will do so until I get a new desktop or a more powerful laptop.

Because of the last reformat, all I have of last month is the last week. I don't really want to spend much effort into explaining last month because if I start then it will take quite a bit of effort to make it come together so I will let pictures suffice instead

So where am I pokerwise?
I can not tell u how many times in my life I have had to start over in building a BR. I am aiming for this to really be my last time. I am actually starting off way better this time than most.

Stars+ Show Spoiler +


FTP+ Show Spoiler +



So where do I want to be pokerwise?
Well I am hoping to have til the end of the year to do this but I am going to break it down on a month per month basis. My goal for the month of October is to make a roll on both pokersites as well as make a live poker roll as well. Currently it goes as follows:

PokerStars goal = 1k
FTP goal = 1k
Live roll = 1k
This is totally doable imo tho the live roll may take a hit somewhat but I'll just have to see where the current takes me

I think that's a good enough starting update/blogpost for now
tc and gl all~

Selling Myself for coaching by UN4, October 02


I need help. Help that I can't afford.

Some people contacted me in the past offering to coach me for a % of my winnings over a given period of time or stakes.

I'm willing to give a pretty high percentage and discuss the time period as well. Contacted me on here or by PM if interested.

My strong points:
- Can play for 8+ hours everyday.
- Love to go over hands and over theory, can dedicate time to that as well.
- Past experiences as a professional gamer.
- I want to learn and get better, don't care about the money.
- I believe my overall thinking process and approach to the game is pretty good.

Ready to start as soon as you are.

Does this look more like Esfandiari or Mike Matusow?

It's been a while since I posted anything here and that's mostly due to me being busy during the summer and obviously my lazy nature has been a factor too.

update from london by TimDawg, October 02


Hey everyone,

This blog is going to be pretty brief, boring, and mostly for those who have bought action from me in the EPT London events. With that said....

I arrived in London on September 28th. My flights went surprisingly well as I slept pretty much the entire way. So I got in at around 10pm basically and just went right to sleep again because I had to wake up early, register for day 1b of the main, and then play.

My starting table (and only table) seemed pretty good at first glance but I soon found out otherwise lol. I had position on the 3 younger looking players who all seemed euro. Everyone one else seemed to be not the best for various reasons haha. I feel like I played very well overall. There are only 2 hands that stand out to me that I wish I would have played differently. I will share the one that I thought was kind of interesting and of course my bustout hand.

blinds are 100/200 at this point and I have QJss on the button,

utg raises to 500, 2 ppl from mp flat, as do I

sb makes it 2500

(who is sick sick aggro fish and has been 3betting relentlessly and played a hand where he 3b pre, potted the flop, potted the turn, and then folded getting probably around 3:1 on a call when he got shipped on)

the utg raiser calls and the 2 flatters from mp both fold, i call as well

flop comes out AJTxxs

crazy sb insta bets 5k into 7.5kish? pot (i have 20kish at this point)

i'm really not sure what is best in this spot but i ended up calling

turn was an offsuit 4

he instantly bets 11k (i have 15k left)

I was originally planning on calling off a blank turn but the fact that he bet 11k instead of shoving just seemed really strong to me and he just gave off a strong aura or whatever, so i ended up folding the turn

my bustout hand was pretty gay....

i pick up KK on the button

folds to the HJ (who is aggro swede), who makes it 800 at 150/300

i 3b to 2k on the button

the sb (who has been tight/solid) makes it 5600

folds to me....i ended up just shipping in around 19kish total

sb tanks......

tanks......

calls....

with AxQs

the doorcard is the Ks....followed by the Js and the 9s....

turn bricks

river 4s

gg

So I ended up playing in a 800 + 300 randomized bounty NL tourney which was actually lots of fun and a really cool tournament. Basically every 1 out of 10 players would get a bounty put on them (but still be hidden from the players) for 1000 pounds. Every other player would have a bounty of 100 pounds on themselves.

I ended up shipping 12kish with T6o from the sb at 400/800 and bb woke up with AQ and held (he had 8kish). Few hands later I ship the rest with 99 and get called by AT and QT and lose.

Today I played in the 1k PLO/NLHE mix, which was a cool tournament but very very annoying to play. I pretty much got into a lot of gay spots early on and had to make some semi-big folds, so I was shortstacked throughout the whole tourney. Eventually I doubled up in a pretty lol way in PLO when i had around 10bb's at 150/300/25 when I potted pre with AKsJ9. the bb tanked forever and ended up flatting pre (haha) then checked a 247 rainbow flop to me. I immediately throw my remaining 1400 or so into the pot and he tanks forever again and ends up calling with A662hhh.
However the turn came a 9, as well as the river.

So I then have around 20bb's or so and play tight and hover around that area for awhile. I then get into a pretty weird hand...

I raise QQJ9 double suited from MP to 700 at 150/300/25, mexico pokerstars pro flats from button and the guy I doubled off of pots it from sb to 3200 or so. I look where his stack should be and ask him if he has anything left and he shakes his head and holds up like a few chips or something (i dont remember exactly what happened). Anyway I ended up re potting to iso assuming he only had like a few 100 chips left behind but he actually had about 6.7k total or something. Anyway we get it in and he has AA3cc5. Flop is Qx2cc turn is offsuit 3 and river is offsuit A
I'm not sure if re potting in that spot with my hand is OK or not but I sort've thinking folding would be better now because I had a workable stack and the NL level was coming up soon, so I'd prob be able to get in much more +ev spots in that, rather than taking a PLO gamble. So right after that hand I get moved tables and ended up making a very marginal shove with A4o utg with 4.3k in chips at 200/400/50 (it was also 7 handed at that time). I think that's also probably a fold in retrospect and it'd be better to shove something like 89s in that spot imo but oh welll.

Overall I've been pretty satisfied with my play and I feel like I'm really on top of it right now, so I'm hoping to make a run soon. My best events to do that in are all still to come, so we will see.

Anyway, I really need to get some sleep because I'm playing the 1500 NL event tommorrow. I will make a much better and more detailed update soon but I wanted to go ahead and post something for now.

Peace homiez

also here is new song that came out today that is such unbelievable hot fire nolan doesnt even know

300k VPP Month!! by Joeingram1, October 02


What's up guys, as the people that have read some of my previous posts know I have a prop bet to get SNE this year. I started this month at 535k VPP after slacking pretty hard in September (I feel like mentally it was going to be too easy to get so I wanted to give myself a challenge, this was all Subconsciously I think lol idk just a theory)

That would basically leave me needed about 155k VPP for the last 3 months of the year. Well I told myself, once October 1st gets here, there is no fucking around Joe, no sleeping in, no cuddling all day on bed with GF, no doing jack shit for no reason. So I got on the ball today and had a great start to the month earning 12k VPP, well on pace for a 300k VPP month. Got in the groove with some nl100 fr lol and then popped out 10k hands at 1/2 PLO, did not run that well (obv no one does at plo) but thougth I played pretty well once my sessions went along. I stuck with only 20-50bb games for todays 2 sessions and seemed to average a pretty good vpp/hand rate. I figure to play in these games with 24 going I will need to readjust my sleep schedule to playing noon-midnightish since overnight usa time not that many 1-2 shallow games run. My results at 1/2 are less then stellar to say the least so far, from my play long ago and my play for the last few months. Hopefully I can keep improving my game and turn it around and put in a few more winning days like today!!


Here is graph for the day, obv no swings

Days 3-4 by Venrae, October 01


Day 3 I did nothing, slept a bunch. today was day 4. I got up late (aka 12:30ish gotta get up earlier). I did a bunch of stuff around the house, went into town and got groceries, cooked meals, blah blah blah. Was pretty productive except on the poker front. I don't know where the time goes but I only got 3 hours in today.

I played pretty much everything, 100bb max/250bb max 6max/FR NL25 and some 50bb max 6max NL50 which is suuuuuuuuuuuuper fishy but I felt a bit uncomfortable playing it.

Drunk Blog by Svenman87, October 01


Lullz

so I've kinda fucked up big time on this wiehgt loss bet. I've lost 9 lbs in the mont of september but I've gottne drunk about 7x so that's 700 bucks I put in the fucking account...

It sucks because my brother only got durnk once with me... So he only put in 100.

So I NEED TO WIN THIS BGET NOW and he is already looking kinda ripped even though his body fat % goal is crazy.

If I get drunk 7x a month that's fucking 4200 buccks I could lose at the end of this which is kinda ghey and would pretty much busto my roll at this time.

Anyways I've also been an idiot and spending a shit load of my poker profits like a donk... New Plasma TV, new watch, new ipod, new shirts, new cologne + perfume for the girl (fucking expensive... 300$ bucks for both? lol wat?)

Blah

Fall Poker Classic is coming up here in Canterbury and I'm gonna play about 5 tourneys

I'm looking forward tot he M.E. oobv but I'll be playing the 6max and hope to rape face.

The 6/12 game ther eis SOOOOOOOO easy, starting to play 8/16 when there is a good table but haven't had much sucess theier yet.








Anyways <3 LP off to party it up

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BTW MY HALLOWEEN COSTUME IS GONNA BE SICKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK THIS YEAR


making a deadmau5 head + wearing an equalizer t-shirt (goes with the music duhhh) + my rave gloves... pics to come?
