So, I havent blogged in a while and its 735 AM and, once again, thanks to drinking for entirely too long on friday night and conversely sleeping all day long yesterday I am still awake... Not really feeling tired at all which is potentially good because I'm trying to win some sats into both the mini ftops ME and the Scoop low ME. There's like a $22 scoop low today too, would love to play all 3 of those, might even eat a steak if one of my friends wants to gambool.
I'm pretty broke atm, havent had a job for a long time and i don't think I can coast off of what I got really anymore. Got two very promising job leads making 1k+ a week which would obv be pretty balla for having to have a job. I'm really glad that I have an amazingly sound working background to fall back on when I make mistakes and try to go pro @ poker with a bankroll that can't support my life with combined play bad.
Further ranting, I have no idea wtf is wrong with me but I haven't had sex since january and I have nothing, nor am i trying to line anything up. I haven't talked to a girl seriously in a real long time... no idea wtf is going on there.
I really want to start working out too, for whatever reason loco really inspires me when it comes to health, i wish I was more like him. Nonetheless, I'm down to 170lbs which i think is just basically exactly how much I want to weigh, I don't want to be skinny at all.
huge shoutout to my hon friends, you guys make my day much more entertaining (ps night2o1 is the bestest)
and now, it's time to attempt to win a sat albeit im working with basically fpps lol not looking promising
I just experience my first ever 5.8 magnitude earthquake wow did i saw the ground moving for like 2 minutes thank god i was drinking and i didn't felt it so bad the scariest part was that in the hole island after those 2 minutes the lights when off sick scary moment i wonder if then end of the island is coming..
i think i need to go get a job lolby whamm!, May 15
obv make money on the side but more coz i think poker has kind of "ruined" my life haha. no balance just poker and buying stuff, it's come to a point where buying stuff isn't really making me feel good anymore, hence demotivating me to grind/play better etc. tbh id be happy earning cheeseburger rate having a job than just sit all day and look forward to gym and shit. im doing ok with poker now and im pretty sure ill wipe out that ptr fiasco of mine by middle of this year or earlier. just that i dont see the point in grinding only to get more material stuff. imma try look for one starting next month and ask some friends of mine for a token job.
heres a nice movie coming this year:
btw, ive been meaning to ask this for years now but keep forgetting. how does one make paragraphs here? even if i space stuff it still comes out as a huge wall of text. ty and gl guys.
Alot of these spots or somewhat boring/common and villain depending but If you could keep your advice as specific as possible. Some spots look similar but are different other spots are pretty much repeats. Please feel free to comment only a few hands.
As always I appreciate any feedback.
Hand 1: Do you double barrel here with the added equity? Or do you prefer c/calling and not getting blown off with a hand with so much equity. Do you call here? Do we have any implied odds watsoever? We can stack a flush sometimes, but will get stacked by a fullhouse sometimes + Show Spoiler +

Hand 4: Do you think it's better to v-bet turn or river? Which looks bluffier? I currently think checking behind looks like i have TT-QQ, but i don't think i would bet river. but i wouldn't bet turn with TT-QQ either. Maybe flop-min raise is bluffiest? + Show Spoiler +

(ive had it happen in windows before and i can click the keyboard modes in the bottom right to switch back)
WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama on Friday angrily decried the "ridiculous spectacle" of oil industry officials pointing fingers of blame for the catastrophic spill in the Gulf of Mexico and pledged to end a "cozy relationship" between the oil industry and federal regulators that he said had extended into his own administration.
Obama said he shared the "anger and frustration" felt by many Americans, and promised he would "not rest or be satisfied" until the leak had been capped, the spill had been cleaned up and gulf residents could return to their livelihoods.
He also acknowledged differing estimates about just how disastrous the damage from the leak could become. He said the administration's response has "always been geared toward the possibility of a catastrophic event."
...
Reacting to the president's remarks, NBC's Andrea Mitchell said, "I frankly don't remember a Rose Garden scene like that against the industry since JFK and the steel industry."
I wanna know how the bonus and rakeback system works.When i deposit 600$ will i be getting my bonus released and still getting my rakeback parallel ? Also when i get my rakeback will my FTP points be deducted ? If yes how many of them - or all of them ?
Okay so i guess making my last post was just kinda my doomswitch and ever since midnight I have run so terrible. I'm like 5.5 BI under EV over the course of 8 HU games. Also once i upload my graph how do i post
it in my blog?
So i just befriended a total fish who i was playing HU, and got him to give me his aim so that whenever were both on we can play each other and he can just ship ship ship me money. I felt kinda bad about taking advantage until he literally handed me like 8 BI and I just cashed all that out and bought a new comp .
the guy won the gubernatorial elections in his area of the philippines (lol) not sure if he's governor or congressman but whatever, he just declared on tv that he WILL fight mayweather under the given conditions of blood tests at random etc. he says
it's his gift to his constituents and countrymen haha. so yeah this fight will happen hopefully this year or early 2011. so no more rumors of who's dodging who coz this fight pretty much a done deal after this statement.
i was reading about some gay deadly chemicals and it lead me to "sarin", a drop of which will kill you if it touches your skin
then i read about a japanese organisation that sounds like something from an anime, a bunch of religious-science elitist who enjoy anime about becoming super powers
this reminds me of when i stumbled upon a big forum for "people who obsessively consume ice". they were all chatting away about their obsession, how they always have a bucket of ice to chew on (and iron deficiencies related to the act)
