i decided i need to stop drinking red bull cold turkey because im tired of the ups and downs. but i have some leftover so i decided i will binge tonight in order to finish it off. starting #6 now tonight and my eyes feel like they are going to pop out of my skull this is pretty cool.
so finished watching the game with a few of my buddies, just taking a few seconds to write down some thoughts.
man the lakers really kept their motivation. i thought it was a spectacular game...if you were a laker fan. their defense killed us, and their motivation/energy was high the entire game. and kobe was just disgusting. for the 2-3 quarter my heart really sunk, cause there was slim ass chance for the magic to win.
congratulations to the lakers, specifically kobe and phil.
also i'm proud of the magic.
-good job to the highest winning season we've ever had
-congrats to stan on getting some recognition (since pat riley stole all of it when the heat won it all)you've done an awesome job
-we won our first finals game
-glad jameer got to play in the finals, he was such a baller until the shoulder injury
some other thoughts
-we prob lose gortat/hedo
-dwight needs to come back stronger next year
-sign rasheed wallace
finally got to play some live , fun times. only +1 bi or so tho
5bet shoved 78ss and got a fold vs one of the nittiest regs ever cause i put him squarely on QQ/kk. he turbo folded.
5bet shoved KQo 2 BI's deep and got assfucked by AA because i thought he was 4b bluffing me light, then i realized he was a super nit.
ALAS IT WAS TOO LATE.
small beat: had to W/D a few BI's for rl monies.
beat: have to go to kate vogul concert with GF
bigger beat: cant get drunk there because im driving
biggest beat: its so fucking hot here how do you americans survive +30 celcius weather? its +2o and i want to move to the north pole
oh and people like graphs. here's this weekends -_-;;. spewed 2 BI's or so trying to build image vs regs who i think will be at nl200
will play more tonight i guess. gonna take a nl200 shot soon, but i might want an 8K br instead.. i dunno : too early in the month. I've only been at nl200 for like 2 weeks or so i think
agreed to play some fish HU todayby egood, June 14
was playing 25nl and sucked out on this fish he challenged me to .25/.50 hu deep. thought I had a pretty good edge so i was like w/e. turned out to be a disaster. got QQ vs his AA and KK vs his AA, got sucked out on a bunch of times too, lost about $300 to him. def not worth it. gonna take me forever to grind it back, ugh

this is only good if you play all your hands like this. But you're not gonna be in such easy spots so often, so youre gonna have to have pretty good postflop play to move people off their hands when you miss.
By the way the only "good" part would just be mixing up your postflop play. Flatting queens is a terrible idea no matter who you're against. Dont take his preflop action to suggest you're already behind and now queens are only worth set-mining. You need to RAISE that shit up at every opportunity.
This is good on very many levels, playing QQ like this a decent % of the time is great against anyone. You don't need to play all your hands like this. Not having a wide value range makes you much easier to play against
Please don't give advice here anymore sir, unless you are trying to make hero play worse?
yea that's right, not only did TT compliment my play he referred to me as hero.
/braggggggggg
lol newayz...
To the magic:
I know you have the worst fucking fans in the world (minus a few hardcore fans), i know your down 1-3 against the pre-season favorites to win it all, i know facing kobe kinda sucks :/, but please, please don't let it end tonight. Not here on our floor.
Why i think the magic will win tonight:
-they will have some pride, and make sure we don't lose at home
-the lakers almost have it in the bag, they can take a game off and win at home
-we have the lucky girl who sings the national anthem today (so far 7-0 when she sings)
-i trust u van gundy, you're probably the best coach the magic has ever hired
anyway good job magic for reaching it to the finals (no one thought you could!), and all i can ask is for you to postpone la's celebration just one more night.
So I was hanging out with my older brother back at home today, and we went to another person's house to chill. At midnight, my phone was vibrating but I missed the phone call. The call log said my girlfriend called me 3 times in a row, so at this point I'm a little worried. The phone started vibrating again, and I walked away from the people we were with and answered. "Hello?"

Closing on the first night... -WTF-by Svenman87, June 14
It has recently been brought up by a friend of mine that I haven't hooked up with a girl the same day of meeting her.
Which is somewhat baffling to me but it makes a lot of sense. I'm not projecting myself as an Alpha male, I generally enjoy making conversation, that's not the issue, I think I'm a pretty laid back and calm guy and maybe that is off putting to some girls? I'm by far no asshole but I make quippy comments and make fun of people yet in a way which the person also gets a laugh out of it as well, by no means malicious.
Generally I make that connection the first night, but it takes a long weekend or a few separate meetings before I really see any results.
I realize this may just be something I need to figure out myself but I was curious if any of you out there have the same issue? Or perhaps something that you do to test out the waters if she'd be dtf on the first night.
does flop % avg pot mean anything?by jasper5408, June 14
ppl used to tell me to sit at the tables with the highest flop % saying those were the tables with all the calling stations. after searching for tables with 40% or above flopping % the only correlation i've found is that there is a bigger chance for idiot short stackers which mess up my game. anyway i've found that no such correlation in my winning/losing sessions.
do you guys have any good experience with this? do you feel like certain table % are easier than others? do good players change the stats and make hard tables easier to identify?
0/6 in flips (QQ vs AK, 9d7 vs 85dd on 97Tdd (I HAD A DIAMOND BLOCKER + REDRAW!! EVEN!!!) etc) + other runbad + the standard not-always-perfect-play
I'm actually not so tore up about it since it didn't totally crush my roll or anything since I just had that big winning day. Another day like this and I have to move down to 1-3 again roflsuicide, but I'm still feeling pretty good at the moment.
Waiting for that sweet uphill variance.. I feel like its pretty well saved up by now :D
Today morning I had volleyball tournament as I wrote yesterday. It was pretty fun and we were drinking during the tournament and after so I was smashed a bit :-). But I decided to go home earlier then rest of players because I wanted to go to campus tonight. I did and I also had time to read and watch some poker stuff.
Tomorrow afternoon I have another one sport tournament but this time its beach volleyball. Its mixed tournament and I hope it will be fun (even without drinking during the game :-) -but after tournament I’m sure we will go to some pub...). I hope I will have time for poker in the morning.
