There's a class reunion tomorrow which I have decided not to attend. Since I graduated from the triple science class, half my ex classmates are doctors. Everytime I meet them at weddings they're all talking about the throats they've peered down and the arses they've peered up.
When all the doctors start talking about their colonoscopies and what have you, that's when I should be leaning over to one of the prettier ones and saying, "you know what? I'm a real big asshole. You can look me up any time."
But my wife always goes along, so...
Pokerwise, I learnt a new phrase today: dämlicher hurensohn! Sure is going to come in handy around 10pm CET!
Since going to mass last Sunday I've been running very hot... overall I'm running at over 6ptbb/100 since I started NL50, and that includes a really horrendous 5.5 buy in downswing when I first started. Moving to NL50 from NL25 really feels like moving to NL5 from NL2... just the same standard of players with more cash to throw around. I don't feel like I'm really WORKING for my money... I'm sure eventually my winrate will drop a little to something more sustainable, but I'm very sure I can beat this level with no problems at all.
Michael Bisping vs. Chris Leben
People all say bisping and they are probably right. Flip side leben is a tough dude, and short of anderson silva he hasn't been finished. If bisping finishes him then he's a legit contender for a title shot. I do think this is a decision with leben losing. But lots of shots thrown, this is gonna be a fun fight.
Brandon Vera vs. Keith Jardine
Jardine is tough. He's a threat to beat anyone cuz he's so tough and he has this style that grinds out all fights. He's almost like a jon fitch but he stands.. kinda like a leg kicking tim sylvia with less power.. who is tough to deal with but he's not some super human threat to explode on you. That being said jardine got obliterated in close combat against wandy. in fact i think jardine just doesn't like to fight close and likes to keep a distance (hence his use of leg kicks) If vera comes explosive and can get close he wins. I pick jardine by decision though. If jardine finishes vera i'll be very impressed. Jardine beating chuck and forrest is not luck. he is a top fighter. he has great skills i just don't know HOW good he can be, if he finishes vera he's right in the mix again at 205.
Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou vs. Luis Arthur Cane
oh my fucking god this is gonna be a slugfest. I'm actually gonna pick Cane. I think sokoudju is overrated and he has to show me to prove he can be as good as his 2 kos early are. Cane though has some nice skills i see him winning this.
Chris Lytle vs. Paul Taylor
Chris by all sorts of stuff, he's just a superior fighter.
Marcus Davis vs. Paul Kelly
PREPARE FOR THE GRENADE. DAVIS BY STRIKES.
Dan Hardy vs. Akihiro Gono
They are setting up gono, he's gonna be in the mix when you talk about top 10 170ers.
Jim Miller vs. David Baron
God 155 has so many good fighters. I'm gonna pick Baron cuz he's shooto. But this should be a great fight
Shane Carwin vs. Neil Wain
Shane should win this, he's enormous even for a HW pretty sure wain is like a tiny tubby guy. Shane by strikes 1st/2nd.
Sam Stout vs. Terry Etim
I always go with the good ground fighter here. Etim is better, Stout has a punchers chance, bu i'm going with Etim by decision or sub.
Per Eklund vs. Samy Schiavo
Yawn. Two uero fighters Per wins though
Jess Liaudin vs. David Bielkheden
David ezmode. highlight time imo.
For the last month or so I haven't really played much at all and I haven't played 1 hand since last Thursday or Friday.
Today I started my session off pretty bad playing badly and ended down about 1.5k at 1/2 HU. I got pretty tilted against a 100vpip fish this guy would tank every single hand on every street which means the table ran at about 45-50 hands per hour and I just couldn't win a single hand against him. This led me to play badly against other players and I just did really spewy shit for example: calling a c/r 200bb deep with tpnk on a fd flop and deciding to turn my hand into a bluff when the flush hit on turn now that isn't bad but then I got min3bet and decided to call and call a shove on a blank river -_-
Needless to say my first day back didn't go so well. I currently goto school and have nothing else to do so I don't see why I should waste anymore of my time with games and stuff instead of playing poker. I plan to play a ton of hands and I'm pretty motivated now like I was when I first started playing this year
I have about 15.5k on stars so I'll be playing a mix of 1/2 and 2/4 HU
o and if someone can get me HEM that'd be great I emailed them and they said I can't pay with stars
And it feels very good! I've been playing mostly 2/5 on stars, but now I'm up to $240 (started with 50 just over a month ago) and I'm gonna move up to 5/10. Here's my graph. Haha I had a huge swing in the middle there- combination of heaters, coolers, and bad play.
Jeez it's getting bad. First it's "Kill him!" and "Terrorist" and "Treason" and so on... now a pack of 65 yr old ladies is attacking Obama supporters?!?? And on top of that we have the insanity of McCain saying that he doesn't care about Ayers but turning around and having his campaign do robo calls about Obama/Ayers... (Robo calls are those automated phone calls)
And what's up with McCain's comeback to the crazies at his rallies being "People say bad things at Obama rallies too!"... First off, wtf are you talking about? Got some video? Got a quote? Got a story? I haven't seen a damned thing. I've been to several Obama events and haven't heard a single person say anything crazy like "Terrorist" about McCain. Secondly, let's say there were people screaming "GEEZEER" and "Old Fart!" or some shit, how the hell does that justify the shit his supporters are doing? How does that justify all the video footage of supporters calling him a muslim and a terrorist? How does that justify their strategy of painting Obama as a scary terrorist muslim nigger who's going to enslave the whites of America?
Another report of violence at a McCain rally, this time a reporter is hit:
I sidled up to one of the Obama supporters and asked why they were there, what they were trying to accomplish.
As he was telling me a large, bearded man in full McCain-Palin campaign regalia got in his face to yell at him.
"Hey, hey, " I said. "I'm trying to interview him. Just a minute, okay? "
The man began to say something about how of course I was interviewing the Obama people when suddenly, from behind us, the sound of a pro-Obama rap song came blaring out of the windows of a dorm building. We all turned our heads to see Obama signs in the windows.
This was met with curses, screams and chants of "U.S.A" by McCain-Palin folks who crowded under the windows trying to drown it out and yell at the person playing the stereo.
It was a moment of levity in an otherwise very tense situation and so I let out a gentle chuckle and shook my head.
"Oh, you think that 's funny?! " the large bearded man said. His face was turning red. "Yeah, that 's real funny…" he said.
And then he kicked the back of leg, buckling my right knee and sending me sprawling onto the ground.
On a more positive note, the Washington Post made a great endorsment of Obama. Read it here.
THE NOMINATING process this year produced two unusually talented and qualified presidential candidates. There are few public figures we have respected more over the years than Sen. John McCain. Yet it is without ambivalence that we endorse Sen. Barack Obama for president.
The choice is made easy in part by Mr. McCain's disappointing campaign, above all his irresponsible selection of a running mate who is not ready to be president. It is made easy in larger part, though, because of our admiration for Mr. Obama and the impressive qualities he has shown during this long race. Yes, we have reservations and concerns, almost inevitably, given Mr. Obama's relatively brief experience in national politics. But we also have enormous hopes.
Mr. Obama is a man of supple intelligence, with a nuanced grasp of complex issues and evident skill at conciliation and consensus-building. At home, we believe, he would respond to the economic crisis with a healthy respect for markets tempered by justified dismay over rising inequality and an understanding of the need for focused regulation. Abroad, the best evidence suggests that he would seek to maintain U.S. leadership and engagement, continue the fight against terrorists, and wage vigorous diplomacy on behalf of U.S. values and interests. Mr. Obama has the potential to become a great president. Given the enormous problems he would confront from his first day in office, and the damage wrought over the past eight years, we would settle for very good.
The first question, in fact, might be why either man wants the job. Start with two ongoing wars, both far from being won; an unstable, nuclear-armed Pakistan; a resurgent Russia menacing its neighbors; a terrorist-supporting Iran racing toward nuclear status; a roiling Middle East; a rising China seeking its place in the world. Stir in the threat of nuclear or biological terrorism, the burdens of global poverty and disease, and accelerating climate change. Domestically, wages have stagnated while public education is failing a generation of urban, mostly minority children. Now add the possibility of the deepest economic trough since the Great Depression.
Not even his fiercest critics would blame President Bush for all of these problems, and we are far from being his fiercest critic. But for the past eight years, his administration, while pursuing some worthy policies (accountability in education, homeland security, the promotion of freedom abroad), has also championed some stunningly wrongheaded ones (fiscal recklessness, torture, utter disregard for the planet's ecological health) and has acted too often with incompetence, arrogance or both. A McCain presidency would not equal four more years, but outside of his inner circle, Mr. McCain would draw on many of the same policymakers who have brought us to our current state. We believe they have richly earned, and might even benefit from, some years in the political wilderness.
OF COURSE, Mr. Obama offers a great deal more than being not a Republican. There are two sets of issues that matter most in judging these candidacies. The first has to do with restoring and promoting prosperity and sharing its fruits more evenly in a globalizing era that has suppressed wages and heightened inequality. Here the choice is not a close call. Mr. McCain has little interest in economics and no apparent feel for the topic. His principal proposal, doubling down on the Bush tax cuts, would exacerbate the fiscal wreckage and the inequality simultaneously. Mr. Obama's economic plan contains its share of unaffordable promises, but it pushes more in the direction of fairness and fiscal health. Both men have pledged to tackle climate change.
Mr. Obama also understands that the most important single counter to inequality, and the best way to maintain American competitiveness, is improved education, another subject of only modest interest to Mr. McCain. Mr. Obama would focus attention on early education and on helping families so that another generation of poor children doesn't lose out. His budgets would be less likely to squeeze out important programs such as Head Start and Pell grants. Though he has been less definitive than we would like, he supports accountability measures for public schools and providing parents choices by means of charter schools.
A better health-care system also is crucial to bolstering U.S. competitiveness and relieving worker insecurity. Mr. McCain is right to advocate an end to the tax favoritism showed to employer plans. This system works against lower-income people, and Mr. Obama has disparaged the McCain proposal in deceptive ways. But Mr. McCain's health plan doesn't do enough to protect those who cannot afford health insurance. Mr. Obama hopes to steer the country toward universal coverage by charting a course between government mandates and individual choice, though we question whether his plan is affordable or does enough to contain costs.
The next president is apt to have the chance to nominate one or more Supreme Court justices. Given the court's current precarious balance, we think Obama appointees could have a positive impact on issues from detention policy and executive power to privacy protections and civil rights.
Overshadowing all of these policy choices may be the financial crisis and the recession it is likely to spawn. It is almost impossible to predict what policies will be called for by January, but certainly the country will want in its president a combination of nimbleness and steadfastness -- precisely the qualities Mr. Obama has displayed during the past few weeks. When he might have been scoring political points against the incumbent, he instead responsibly urged fellow Democrats in Congress to back Mr. Bush's financial rescue plan. He has surrounded himself with top-notch, experienced, centrist economic advisers -- perhaps the best warranty that, unlike some past presidents of modest experience, Mr. Obama will not ride into town determined to reinvent every policy wheel. Some have disparaged Mr. Obama as too cool, but his unflappability over the past few weeks -- indeed, over two years of campaigning -- strikes us as exactly what Americans might want in their president at a time of great uncertainty.
ON THE SECOND set of issues, having to do with keeping America safe in a dangerous world, it is a closer call. Mr. McCain has deep knowledge and a longstanding commitment to promoting U.S. leadership and values.
But Mr. Obama, as anyone who reads his books can tell, also has a sophisticated understanding of the world and America's place in it. He, too, is committed to maintaining U.S. leadership and sticking up for democratic values, as his recent defense of tiny Georgia makes clear. We hope he would navigate between the amoral realism of some in his party and the counterproductive cocksureness of the current administration, especially in its first term. On most policies, such as the need to go after al-Qaeda, check Iran's nuclear ambitions and fight HIV/AIDS abroad, he differs little from Mr. Bush or Mr. McCain. But he promises defter diplomacy and greater commitment to allies. His team overstates the likelihood that either of those can produce dramatically better results, but both are certainly worth trying.
Mr. Obama's greatest deviation from current policy is also our biggest worry: his insistence on withdrawing U.S. combat troops from Iraq on a fixed timeline. Thanks to the surge that Mr. Obama opposed, it may be feasible to withdraw many troops during his first two years in office. But if it isn't -- and U.S. generals have warned that the hard-won gains of the past 18 months could be lost by a precipitous withdrawal -- we can only hope and assume that Mr. Obama would recognize the strategic importance of success in Iraq and adjust his plans.
We also can only hope that the alarming anti-trade rhetoric we have heard from Mr. Obama during the campaign would give way to the understanding of the benefits of trade reflected in his writings. A silver lining of the financial crisis may be the flexibility it gives Mr. Obama to override some of the interest groups and members of Congress in his own party who oppose open trade, as well as to pursue the entitlement reform that he surely understands is needed.
IT GIVES US no pleasure to oppose Mr. McCain. Over the years, he has been a force for principle and bipartisanship. He fought to recognize Vietnam, though some of his fellow ex-POWs vilified him for it. He stood up for humane immigration reform, though he knew Republican primary voters would punish him for it. He opposed torture and promoted campaign finance reform, a cause that Mr. Obama injured when he broke his promise to accept public financing in the general election campaign. Mr. McCain staked his career on finding a strategy for success in Iraq when just about everyone else in Washington was ready to give up. We think that he, too, might make a pretty good president.
But the stress of a campaign can reveal some essential truths, and the picture of Mr. McCain that emerged this year is far from reassuring. To pass his party's tax-cut litmus test, he jettisoned his commitment to balanced budgets. He hasn't come up with a coherent agenda, and at times he has seemed rash and impulsive. And we find no way to square his professed passion for America's national security with his choice of a running mate who, no matter what her other strengths, is not prepared to be commander in chief.
ANY PRESIDENTIAL vote is a gamble, and Mr. Obama's résumé is undoubtedly thin. We had hoped, throughout this long campaign, to see more evidence that Mr. Obama might stand up to Democratic orthodoxy and end, as he said in his announcement speech, "our chronic avoidance of tough decisions."
But Mr. Obama's temperament is unlike anything we've seen on the national stage in many years. He is deliberate but not indecisive; eloquent but a master of substance and detail; preternaturally confident but eager to hear opposing points of view. He has inspired millions of voters of diverse ages and races, no small thing in our often divided and cynical country. We think he is the right man for a perilous moment.
At least some people are keeping their sense of humor, like the heroes chick:

Moved up to nl200 after like winning like 80 bi at nl100. I have tried to move up to nl200 a few times and always seemed to lose 4-5 bi really quickly. So this time I decided to just ride it out and stick with it, giving myself like 15 bi to play with. I started out losing 10 bi in the first few days. I got on a heater after that, winning $2500 then $1000 in a tournament. Then I lost $2300 in 2 days. That was about 3 weeks ago. Since then I haven't had a losing session! This is first streak this long since I have started playing poker seriously, in January. Combination of really good luck and solid play, but its definitely been nice. Up about $5000 total in that time period over about 20k hands. I am on campus now so when I get back home I will post the graph, but it is something like that.
Lets try this ONe more time..by Gumster, October 17
Okay so my last attempt went fine untill I went on a trip to visit my homie hansen. When I came back I didn't feel like playing at all and when I played I just fucked around and played like shit. Although I've been raping lots live (im up like 3k from playing like 6 nights at the casino) I really need to get this shit going. So here I am, again, starting a new database, again... Whatever, here are my stats for today:
I also bought a new watch for $1k (brand: oris), it's classy as hell and I'll upload a pic of it asap.
I just recently found out my friend just got the new PES 2009(pro evolution soccer for u suckaz) so I'll be cruising to him soon to play the shit out of it along with my friend mary-jane.
i realllly hope the market doesn't go crazy this time and i can hold my shits a bit longer.
im trading mostly small caps and they are pretty damn illiquid. i get raped by the big/ask slippage.
basically the reason for this trade is that i'm just lookin for a retracement, like the S&P is down ~40% and im just looking for it to bounce up again. the pattern is a double bottom and many would say that this is pretty good tradeable mini bottom. gettin good pot odds for my $ so why not.
as for guys who'd like to get started... just gonna point u out to few books
that 2+2 thread was a day trading guide but obv u just gotta read few books and see which method of trading is right for you. so i guess just read a lot. i don't day trade but that guide was very helpful. the books he recommended was really really good.
....at 25nl FR, winrate isn't very good i think but i'm just happy im beating it. Couple of days and i'll be taking shots at nl50 fr and if that goes well nl25 6max. What is an average winrate for micro FR?

craziest session I've ever hadby luddite, October 17
Man, this session was NUTS. It seemed like every single hand I was involved in, someone would shove in a weird place, and the most ridiculous suck outs happened. There was this one guy who was shoving preflop almost every hand. It got to the point where I had to start drinking to calm my nerves, because I kept getting sucked out on with good cards, and i KNEW I had the edge and just had to keep playing, but it was so scary and frustrating. Anyway, I ended up ahead, so alls well that ends well. Here's my session graph: + Show Spoiler +

My 1st mtt victory has to be an 8$ shitty tourney, fuck me lol, i've been deep in 3 tournaments today including the 35k guaranteed and it has to be this one where i run decently and take it down. I pretty much steamrolled the FT and i crushed the guy HU, not hard when it's an 8$ tourney, ah well at least it will contribute to my BR reconstruction.
Also, i sent nutshot 1$ while i was deep into the 35k for the boomswitch and i took this one down a couple hours after, if you guys didn't send him 1$, seriously just do it, best investment ever.
