So I don't think I've ever been so tilted in a winning month. With rakeback it'll probably end up around 20k or so, which is nice. Last week has been fairly brutal, heh. Probably not playing any significant amounts or stakes for the rest of the month due to a test and VALBORG. Overall for the year I'm not up as much as I've hoped, but I'm still making a fair bit. Pretty swingy though.

I have some goals for may though:

- Working out 6 times a week.

- Put in a lot of hands while not playing to many tbls.

- Eat well

Basically may will be the first "summer vacation" month for me since I'll miss my last test anyway due to poker obligations (lol) and therefore I won't study much (might do the test later, but w/e) and I'll spend the month doing meaningful shit such as: Getting in shape, playing poker and fishing. It'll be glorious.

Do any of you play with a laptop + a larger monitor attached to it? I play on a 15'' laptop, dunno how i'd comfortably play with another monitor since I'd have to keep my head turned all the time

Also what do you guys think is more important, having a bigger monitor or being more comfortable while playing? I usually sit on a comfortable reclining chair or I lay on my bed when I play poker, If I get a bigger monitor i'd have to sit at a desk and I have a pretty bad back so it gets uncomfortable fast. What do you think I should do? lol

Bill Maher did a funny "new rule" where he made a very good point - Defense spending is the biggest source of our national debt and is completely out of control, but you'll be hard pressed to find a teabagger who actually wants to cut defense spending despite their constant cries to reduce the debt.

Click here to watch the video

"The problem with the tea party movement, besides their almost universal rejection of dentistry, is that they want money for nothing and chicks for free. They want a deregulated free market and their jobs to stay here in the US; they want guaranteed health coverage regardless of preexisting conditions without a big government mandate; they want to call themselves teabaggers and people to keep a straight face. And of course they want big tax cuts along with deficit reduction. I can't even think of a suitable analogy for that disconnect--it's like thinking getting a handjob will clean your garage." ... Everything that goes into defense costs us about a trillion dollars a year, most of which goes into fighting the Russians in 1978. Fighter planes for all those dog fights we get into with the Taliban, submarines to foil their evil plot to blow up our ships with car bombs, and space lasers to shoot down their exploding underpants...scream about handouts, this is what they should be protesting.

I did have a slump in Mars, but it was mostly to show my brother who I'm helping a lot, because he's so happy when he's productive, how sad it can get if you just sit on wow, when he got a job I quit wow, and I've been doing really good in April.

I put in a healty amount of hours on the table, I'm not sure how much though. I don't use a tracker or record, I just try and get several hours a day, sometimes 2 hours, sometimes 10. My mate Erik who pwnz, wanted to stake me, so he did, and I've been running hot, so this month I'm up 14.000e or so, shipped half of it to him as was our deal, and cashed out half of it for myself. And we restarted the stake. (Can do that whenever I want, cash out, and we go at it at 10k, or I can just stop the deal if I want, so pretty sweet deal <3).

I'm also up some on my own playing, I'm not sure how much, because I rarely play on my own cash, but It's around 4,5k e there or so.

I got around going to the gym again in April as well, I go around 3-5 times a week, and I eat siick good.

I try to eat 5-7 meals a day, get plenty of water in between. I do eat some take out, I feel a bit bad, but it's because we're lazy and it's fun.

I've not studied as much poker as I wanted, but I did study the Easy Game book, thoroughly. Notes, re-read, put up notes, and I've read quite a bit in Volume 2 as well, but I'm winning in poker a bit, so then I play more than study.



My dad's been a hero to me for some time, because I've had some rough patches, and he doesn't care, and seem to always be there for me, so I wanted to give him a present to show my appreciation, so I bought him a present.



Me and my sister's husband carrying it out of his car. We had to trick my dad to get him out of the house too lol, so I called his best mate and gave him a mission to get my dad out of the house. So he had called him over, and he showed him his laptop lol(A shitty 4 year old laptop). Then he took him out for some soda, my dad in the aftermath said it felt so weird, like he was in the twillight zone lol.

I heard a lot of good things about it, it's a LED Black Rose HD TV, 55, and we bought lots of accessories too, uhm, like usb adapter, so it works on the internet or something, and some hard disk which we plugged in it's back, loaded it with 500gb of good movies, like everything we could find like, The Dark Knight, Pulp Fiction, Snatch, blabla, anything good and cool, because my dad hasn't watched much of anything when it comes to movies, although he often talks about wanting to watch xD


I also started talking to an old friend, which was rly nice, cus she's a milf and she wants to marry me when she's 30. So I guess that's cool.

All in all, good times <3


Peace


ps, I also helped fix him a pc, u can see it in the background, and gave him my old screen (he just started using facebook and youtube so xD), lucky enough to have gotten a 30' and a 27' myself so. weee


pps, also spent a lot of time with the cat, cats just seem to get me <3

So since my cable provider will not let me order WEC for some reason im going to go watch it at a local strip club. I was looking up locations and was dumbfounded that a strip club is showing WEC fights.

" That's a cool story candy, but can you move your ass aldo is about to fist fabers butt chin. "

This is gonna be awesome. The place is usually pretty dead too so it should be pretty quiet.

Just for the record the strip club is Fantasy Topless. It's pretty garbage but whatever. Trashy girls need love too!

It seems like everything I do at the poker table is ass backwards. Every hand I post, its pointed out that I misplayed it horrendously (not complaining at the people pointing this out for me). Its like my internal logical thinking ability is completely .. trash. My assumptions are always wrong, what I expect people to do with each hand in their range is skewed, my hand values are all fucked. I don't understand. Whats wrong with me. It isn't as if I'm, in my mind at least, just clicking buttons, but that is what the result looks like after I see what other people think about what I'm doing.

I hope someone has an idea of what I'm talking about, and how I can change it.

That's why I'm frustrated right now.

It's about the topic; "beating mid stakes pokering" or something. Dunno if the link works cause megaupload was weird about uploading it but let me know and if it doesn't work I'll find another host.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R4S3MFYZ

It's a presentation rather then actually play though.

Other link, havn't tried it but hoylemj got it for me:

So Friday I got home from school and played some poker but I did cash rooms. I did .25/.50 first and lost 7$ immediantly. I decided to go lower and in 30 minutes I was up 30$ (starting today I was 16.90 then went to 42). I took a break, played again and got to 58$. I knew I should have stopped playing after taking a break but I kept playing and got myself back to 35$. Was fun and I did learn a bit as well and hope I do better tomorrow ^^.

I've done this in the past so you don't need to worry about getting scammed. No mark-up and great value here since I will be including tournaments that are below my ABI in this deal. If I don't get 50% shipped by 4pm EST on Saturday I will change this to a Sunday only stake and redo the math in a new post. I'm pretty sure this will be filled up by the start time on Saturday however. If I have 6 tables open I may cut a tournament and refund that money.

Saturday
**FTOPS Event #5 - $309
24K Guarantee - $75
10K Rush - $26
FTOPS Event #6 - $216
80K Guarantee - $109
32K Guarantee - $26
40K Guarantee - $75
15K Guarantee - $11
75K Guarantee - $163
35K Guarantee - $26
Total: $1036

Sunday
FTOPS Event #7 - $129
42K Guarantee - $26
22K Guarantee - $75
15K Guarantee - $11
150K Guarantee - $163
33K Guarantee - $26
24K Guarantee - $75
200K Guarantee - $22
10K Rush - $26
1.25M Guarantee - $322
32K Guarantee - $26
Total: $901

GRAND TOTAL: $1937

1% = $19.37
5% = $96.85
10% = $193.70
25% = $484.25

**(This is a $100 Rebuy)(If I rebuy more than the initial + an add on it will come out of my own pocket if I cash in 0 other tournaments. So under no circumstance would you have to send me additional money.) ex. I only cash in a $26 tourny for $75 profit throughout this whole stake and I made $200 in additional rebuys. I would not pay out any money and pay $125 extra on my own. I plan on winning a few of these so this shouldn't come into play.

http://i378.photobucket.com/albums/oo228/m3gaedke/opr-4.jpg

I would like to sell between 50% and 75%. I will be playing if anything over 50% is sold. I will send everyone that is a confirmed staker a pm by the start time of the first tournament, in most cases I will confirm as soon as I receive the payment. I will make an update post after the tournaments wrap up on saturday. Money will be sent back to everyone by midnight on monday.

All funds must be sent to TheRelapse on FTP. I can only accept via FTP.

Thanks.
