Some guy I used to play a bit before gave me some HU action today. Funny thing was that he said he was sure I wasn't me. Well, when I first started playing him 2 years ago he was a 5/10 and 10/20 reg and I was just starting to take shots at NL1k. Considering how I'm the reg who plays NL1k and NL2k now and he's mostly playing lower, I'd say that I've probably change my play a little bit, yes.
As far as this month goes I'm breakevenish after 40k hands and about 25k€ under equity. If I keep putting in this volume I'll get like 10k in rakeback though so that's something. Might just start grinding mid stakes for a while for some sure profit since I'd feel a little bit stupid if I'd put in 80k hands a month and still lose money, heh.
I do love rake races. They makes me actually play as much as I should. This time I grind to get a UO-package for Prague, which will be sick fun. I had a blast last year and I assume it'll be as fun this year.
Other then that I've turned my days around. I sleep during the days and work out/play poker/read/etc during the nights. It's too warm for me to function during the day. I think my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandmother might've been unfaithful with a polar bear because I really can't stand heat.
I didn't play very well today and I feel really shitty about it. Felt confused a lot in spots I thought I had an overall grasp on. Meh, I'm sure I do still, I just wasn't making good decisions today. Played like 1hr and dumped $350 which is a ton for me(played some nl100, badly I might add). Should really only play nl50 until next month.
Meh just a vent. Gonna have to pull this shit together :O

1st real money final table everby K40Cheddar, July 13
made my first final table last night. Funny thing was, it was in limit razz. LOL. $1 buy in placed 4th for $42.12. Couldn't keep the discipline after 5 hours .
since you enjoyed my previous movie thread so much i made another one. if you missed the first one then go find it in my blog, its epic.
cutting moments
old "cult" horror flick, consists of about 6 stylised short stories in a style similar to Sin City. probably awesome for its time.
eternal sunshine of a spotless mind
a guy has a procedure to wipe his memories of his ex-lover, but starts regretting the decision during the procedure as he relives the memories. eh, i didnt like this movie one bit (everyone else ADORES it). what was so good about it? unlikeable characters, unlikeable events...shrug. got 8.5 on imdb.
seven pounds
this is about a man with authority and power who goes around "doing good" for people. it has a big twist/hidden secret and is quite sad (women would cry to it). go get it.
mr brooks
this is about a top business owner who likes to murder people as his secret lonesome hobby (a tad like dexter). this wasnt so interesting but had a nice dark smooth style so you'll easily find it enjoyable.
running scared
this is about a man who has his gun stolen by a kid and he needs to get it back before the police find it and can incriminate him for other crimes. felt a bit like a TV action movie to me (ie i wasnt impressed) but was definately above average as far as tv action movies go. watch if you like gangsta/thriller stuff.
sex is zero
cool korean movie with wacky sex comedy. great for getting drunk to if u like that kinda thing.
date night
a normal man and wife go out one night and end up in a silly dilemma with the mob. made for dumb american women but starring the guy from the office (US) and manages to be entertaining all the way through (barring some grating dialogue/arguements).
brooklyns finest
follows a handful of cops and gangstas within the same neighbourhood. started slow for me but i atually got into it and some decent suspense and events in the second half. watch if you like cops and gansta movies, obv.
the secret
documentary (ah ha) about a baseless belief that we attract things into our lives by the power of thought/brain electricity. turned it off after 15 minutes. can you say "confirmation bias"?
ikigami
japanese movie set in a world where the government forces random people to die every day, with the intention of encouraging everyone to live life to the fullest because they could be next. felt like a cross between logan's run and battle royale. okay this was fantastic, i cried like twice. you have GOT to get this movie.
the good, the bad and the weird
a "western" gunslinger movie set in korea (i think). basically one wacky guy steals a treasure map and goes on the run against two different gangs, a hitman and the japanese army. started off slow for me but became entertaining (1 guy VS the world).
hot tub time machine
utter crap. "teen" comedy which stars adults (so you think it might be decent) but hasnt a single funny moment in the entire show. really really a waste of time.
bottle rocket
owen wilsons first movie (?) about three dumb guys who rob a store then go stay in a hotel for a while to avoid the police (??). overall this was entertaining but nothing special (like Date Night). the movie cost 5mil but only made 1 mil apparently, which is a shame considering.
cashback
an unlikeable emo dweeb whines for 1hr30 but still ends up with a girl and an amazing job. what the fuck? who the fuck wrote this bullshit? okay it was some guy calld "sean ellis". I HATE SEAN ELLIS. this film is more sickeningly emo than twilight 2. the monologues are monsterous. they took a cool concept like "i can freeze time and therefore undress women without them knowing" and just shovelled tons and TONS of BULLSHIT on top of it. god i hate this movie. watch this muted because itd actually be good then (you can make up your own story and dialogue). ITS SO FUCKING BAD and yet still got 7.5/10?????????? are you fucking kidding me. twighlight new moon was the worst film ive seen in 2+ years but id rate it higher than this just out of spite.
i heart huckabees
wow. okay, its a comedy (?) about a couple of guys who employ "existentialist" thinkers to analyse and offer advice to their lives. now i just glanced at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existentialism#Concepts
and i think the movie goes over all of those concepts. im not sure. i really dont know. i will watch this again but for now give it a 9/10. go watch this!
he was a quiet man
oh man, this was good too. a weedy, bullied office worker goes into work with a gun, intending to kill his asshole workmates then shoot himself. BIG TWIST!!!! followed by...BIGGER TWIST!!!! followed by .......BIGGGGGER TWIIIIISSSSST!!!! (if you're dumb as hell like me, that is). pay attention to the weird stuff in this movie. im sure figuring it out whilst you're watching is much more gratifying than having to read about it afterwards in the imdb FAQ *sobs*
summary:
MUST WATCH
he was a quiet man
ikigami
i heart huckabees

My gmama has a cat, and the cat has fleas. So I have a flea infestation that has become pretty bitchin in my carpeted bedroom. I finally had enough of it today after 15 minutes into my session I was so distracted by itching and being bitten that I went on rage tilt and closed everything.
I declared a jihad on fleas.
My weapon is biological; Boric Acid. Boric acid is a powerful destroyer of insect life, killing fleas, roaches, and other bugs in the first 24 hours of exposure. I've dusted my carpets and the kitchen.
Problem is, even though I rarely see a roach in the house, I know that whenever pesticides are used they tend to bring the roaches out to the forefront.. where they die all over the place. Within the first two hours of dusting I've already come home to find a big dead roach in my bedroom (where I have never seen a roach before). I'm really not looking forward to cleaning up the roach Hiroshima tomorrow..
Thats right, I'm gay provided poker is not a chick.
I have an A2 poster on my wall which has about 50 $100 bills and a bunch of high stakes chips and writing 'We all measure change differently'. I play NL10. My old love, I am back <3
