I was more amused than angry for losing the $7 of gone profit I'd get if I did rebuy 1ms earlier. stil THIS FUCKING SUCKS :D
This guy is a wacko, I must have won $600 from him the other day. On his blog he shows his cards live while he is playing. You can not see his exact cards, but you can tell the color, so you know when he is on a flush draw and does not make it.
if you call a corporation's customer service number which is based out of your home country, how long does it take you to begin speaking with a human who is actually from the country in which said corporation is based?
YO PECKERS I am sleep deprived and just finished an 19 hour session that sucked DICKS. I was up 1100, sat in the sickest soft 4handed 5/10 on the planet, giant fish left so I dipped out and the game broke. 100 profit woot(the only reg in the game was catching cards vs me like the sickness).
Then I eventually made a borderline bluff catch for an $1600 pot with TPTK (I lost lolz) and then THE BEST THING EVER happened. I said "I'm really tired its time to go, last orbit" UTG I pick up KJs which is awesome for raising in live FR IMO so I Raise that shit, this guy calls me and that's it, flop is KJ7ss YES I HAVE A GOOD HAND! So I bet, he raises, I 3 bet/call his shove for a $1500 pot. he has AKo, TURN ACE LOL OLOLOLOLOL 3OUTERAMENTS TOOK MY PROFIT!!! 19 hour session -$200, oh well.
Anyway since I got here on Thursday I'm up $1300 which I guess is cool. I really should of just ended my session about 7-8 hours before I did and locked up the $1100 profit since the games had dried up anyway.. then I'd be ballinrageous. But whatever. I won't play sessions over ~14 hours w/o a REALLY good reason anymore, I think :/?
Also at the 2/5 I was sitting in I saw a guy lose aces full vs quad queens for 3BI lol. The Wynn doesn't have a badbeat jackpot so..fuck my life cuz I Didn't get a table share, plus that poor bastard didn't get his bad beat. It was hilarious cuz the loser was a reasonably ok player and the winner was the sick donkey half the table was sitting for.
I'm trying to post pictures from myth's birthday last month but apparently the internet at the apartment has like a 2kb/s max upload so I Can't be arsed atm I'll try and figure something out 2morrow.
Here is a teaser of Haj(uptown's) handsome mug.. he was completely fkn obliterated this night. http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/5317/snv30492.jpg

It does however work in virtualdub and windowsmoviemaker. How can I add audio to the video file? Thx in advance for all the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do not understand poker, or did i never understoodby GP.Xelnaga, April 06
Sigh, again -160$ today, and now i'm getting really really depressed about it.
Looked at last 3months, i kinda play the same as 25nl, yet i'm losing the 50nl limit over 55k hands, that has got to beat the variance out right? So i'm just a weak tag losing at 50nl?? I EVEN RUN ABOVE ALL IN EV ( god even worse it is superbad playing by me)
Not a whine post but want to improve post, cause i really love the game but the way things are going with my play, i' wont become any good at it
Edit: Playing 6max
Cheers lp
ok, so i played outside my roll and dusted like 2k after moving to nl100 too fast.
learned a lesson, why the fuck would i be able to move up that early when its against br management rules and a rule for just about every player. I'm no better than them and theres no reason for me to ever take a shot, since taking shots may pay off once in a while, but will always result in an epic fail.
I got too full of myself, too much ego, and thought the games would be soft enough to crush at nl100 fr, but one bad run below expectation, then some tilt, b4 i knew it, I was playing HU and HU SNG's like an idiot chasing loses.
If I were playing properly rolled, there would have been no emotion to losing 5-10 buy-ins and I would have been completely fine.
Also learned that when I have DS out of my roll I tilt easy *(pretty obvious)*, and that my ego was keeping me from moving down. Now that I recognize the problems, I'm working hard to address them and take it to the top.
im restarting from scratch and regrinding on my spare time from a bill, idk how much im gonna be playing with the $330 deepstacks going on at the venetian all week (25k for 1st), but i'll definitively be playing online during most of my spare time since the deepstacks are going to take up the majority of my roll.
I busted in the 1st hour today to a fucking donk who was raising every hand, set over set after missing a power draw a couple hand b4 (actually 2 power draws, one open ender with 2 live overs and tp w/ nfd vs mp who ended up making a set to beat my tp A2cc on an AJ7cc board)
meh, pokers been frustrating, I'm really annoyed with MTT's and ALL i want to do is grind cashgames, but with these deepstacks going on, its pretty hard to say no to going and playing in them with those fields being as soft as they are =
kinda down on myself, learning a lot lately, and really looking forward to patrick (bigred) coming out to vegas, and JC and Frinkx (who is doing Amazing at foxwoods right now, or was atleast yesterday, I hope hes still in it)
rS.eVaDe is going to be moving in with us on the 21st, hes a very strong nl100 - nl600 grinder, has very little leaks and has amazing tilt control and a great poker mind. I'm looking forward to that as well.
Lifes been good, yesterday I was really down on myself about alot of stuff, kinda regrouped though after a few good talks with patrick whamm and hattan, thanks guys.
ok, gonna start back on the 2, following my guide.
one more time, here she goes.

(ive had suggestions that I dont have to wait until 2M, the most likely of scenarios)
HU & MTT's - Must have 100+ buy-ins
180 MAN SNG's - 200 BI
90 MAN SNG's - 125 BI
45 MAN SNG's - 75 BI
(will move down if I hit the max bi for the level below)
6m + FR - 8-24 tables
HU - 2-8 tables
MTTs - up to 25 tables
Sundays 10% bankroll allowance if not staked that week
Avoid Fast tables (more time/more tables/more money)
Stop loss! use 90 min timed sessions or stop if losing 5 bi before 90 mins
When you reach the plateau for the new limit you can unlock the next limit in the stars limit restrictions, stay patient and continue to grind or take a break until the new limit is open and move up
Can't find the sweet spot. Running overall crappy and am having trouble sitting down and focusing on poker. Keep playing too many tables and auto-piloting. ;alskjfd
Very demoralized in terms of poker right now. Played 2 stupid sessions today. Dunno wtf is wrong. Been having many more losing than winning sessions lately and I think it's starting to beat me down. Been playing NL100 instead of NL200 most of the time but that's not helping much.
It's annoying cause I already know what to do and have solutions to all these problems but don't feel like implementing em. That's a bad state of mind to be in.
To try and cheer up I'm gonna watch funny stuff for a bit. Here's the Bruno Trailer which gives good lols
new SNL short, like a boss, hahahahaha
lazy sunday, lmao. I love these shorts where they do hardcore rap style songs about nerdy shit, hahaha. If you don't listen to the words a lot of the songs they do sound like top songs in the genre they're aiming for. this one is great:
People punched before eating, rofl, what a weird ending
I recently changed site from an all Swedish site to FTP, the results so far is not great but at least in the positive. However my non showdown winnings graph is going straight down to hell. I feel I have been spewing a little bit to get a grip on the game but it seems like a big change? The old site didn't show mucked hole cards at showdown, could this effect?
- back to nl50 again after spending some quality practice time down at nl25.
- playing like a nit but w/e, focusing primarily on playing 'to the villain'. + Show Spoiler +
http://amix.dk/uploads/brue_lee.jpg Be like water my friend.
- played like 4 hours, 6 tables, 2.2k hands today, the most in a longggg time hopefully I can do this again tomorrow.
- No idea what result was, b/c I am currently doing the k2o4 no looking at results challenge. But I'm 90% sure I was in the green today despite some epic coolers (boat under boat, set under set for stacks lol) - Got to know lazymej
My goals for April are 30k hands and to continue to improve. IDK if I can realistically achieve 30k hands w/ the RL schedule I have (only have 4.5k hands as we speak ), but hopefully I can keep improving!
took nl200 shot #2 but i took this one way too far however i guess it worked out. I played for 8 hours straight i think on every nl200 table running on cake which was usually about 8 but got up to 10 i think. It woulda hurt ridiculously bad to quit at rock bottom. It woulda hurt my pride anyway my br is still fine regardless when i was @ rock bottom but i was quitting if i lost 200 more. Glad I came out of the hole and actually turned a nice $400 profit at the end + probably a pretty decent deal of rakeback.
