AC?

JerseyMuscle — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 15:28:40 +0000

So I'm heading down to the Borgata tonight for a friend's birthday and I'll be there tomorrow too for some pokers. If anyone wants to meet up down there or something PM me here. Though tonight I may be too drunk to notice.

April goals

JerseyMuscle — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 18:14:04 +0000

So I've decided to post this here, because its easier to link to my friends this way. Let's see if I can do a little better than I did in March. Poker: 20k hands (I'll shoot a bit lower this time.) Gold Star +$2k in AC stop being 'loose Bill' at the home game nothing but NLHE cash for the whole month Non-poker: Be running 10 miles/week by the end of the month Not spewing on anythin...

40k? lol. Try 4k.

So I decided to set some goals for myself for March: [QUOTE][B]On March 01 2009 09:24 JerseyMuscle wrote:[/B] Poker goals for March: [] Gold Star (which should be easier now) [] Playing NL50 regularly [] Playing 40k hands [] Mastering O8 and Stud8 to beat the soft 10/20 2-way at the Borgata [] Not playing NL100+ or PLO50+ when I feel like I'm not accomplishing anything at these lower ...

Live heater continues. Up another ~$2200 in a few more hours of Borgata 2/5. Apparently that game is a lot more ridiculous than Caeser's at tournament time, as I lost 2 buyins there in a couple hours. No more Caeser's obv. We can also add the +700 from $10 blackjack at Ballys to the run good. They have some silly side bet that I was just crushing. Probably going back Sunday.

w00t!

JerseyMuscle — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 14:27:40 +0000

Live heater, which made it more fun. Up 3 BI in about 8 hours of 2/5NL at the Borgata last night/this morning. Tilted the hell out of one guy check/shoving J9hh on a 67Thh board and cracking his KK. Another guy told me I always made perfect bet sizes and he's never seen anyone do it better, and that me and my friend were the 'new era of poker players.' lol. And I got teriyaki. A fine night. ...

NL10 no good

JerseyMuscle — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 05:47:47 +0000

So I've been pretty much crushing NL2 in the past week and had myself up to a little under $200, so I decided I'd take a shot at NL10. Decided to skip 5 because I didn't feel like it added anything last time I was moving through stakes. Anyway, NL10 is an entirely different ballgame from the robot-like 16-tabling that is NL2. I feel like I'm playing pretty well, but being down 7BIs doesn't ...

I'm back

JerseyMuscle — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 15:42:10 +0000

So after my last post I decided to take a break from playing poker seriously, but that lasted all of 2 weeks. I got $50 onto Full Tilt and was playing $2 SNGs and doing fairly well, but after awhile of playing the same thing I get real bored. So even though I had a decent ROI%, I managed to donk it all away on MTTs and the like. While that was going on, I deposited $50 to ePassporte to put ...

October

JerseyMuscle — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 01:42:39 +0000

So I realized that I didn't make an October post, and since I have nothing to do (see below) I decided I would. I didn't get to play much in October, partly because of school, and partly because of the gf. And partly because I discovered I could get to AC in under an hour. So instead of doing the smart thing and putting the "college spending money" online and playing within my roll...

lol oops

JerseyMuscle — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 01:12:09 +0000

[img]http://cassocial.free.fr/ethanol.jpg[/img] Posted above my computer now; thanks MiPwnYa. Though I didn't run it that low, I'm rebuilding from $12. Back to 1c/2c until ePassporte money clears. Onwards.

Down down down down

JerseyMuscle — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 01:41:50 +0000

So I was all ready to make a post about how bad I ran tonight (-4 buyins), but when I went over the session in PT, all the hands where I lost a big amount of money I was crushed. Things like AQ v AK (3 times), QQ v AA, TT v AA, etc. Anyway, I had already started to post and everything, so I guess I\'ll give you the graph anyway: [img]http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/3110/graphko1.png[/i...

So I guess I'm a nit

September

JerseyMuscle — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 18:32:48 +0000

So I only played 12k hands this month, but I was starting school, and I'm taking 6 classes, so there was some adjustment time. My goal for October is 25k hands, and to move up into NL5 full-time. For some reason, ImageShack hasn't been working for me all day, so no pictures, but general information: NL5: 2,703 hands at 18.94/10.36/1.42 3.54 PTBB/100 hands $9.58 profit NL2: 9,570 hand...

Class is fun

JerseyMuscle — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:54:39 +0000

So I had a small 600-hand session today between classes. Started out a little shaky (QQ < KQ, then QQ < 77, then QQ < KT) but in the end it turned out okay. Caught a ridiculous string of cards, and managed to get people to call me.

Turning Stone trip

JerseyMuscle — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 13:12:19 +0000

So four of my friends (who are not 21) and myself made a trip up to Turning Stone this weekend. Now we've been trying to get up there for at least 6 months, but there's always a schedule conflict or someone doesn't have the money, but we finally made it up there. So we got up there on Friday night, and two of my friends go to play 100max (blinds 1/2 there) and two of them play 200max (blind...

I run bad apparently

JerseyMuscle — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 22:18:47 +0000

So I deposited $50 to ePassporte a few weeks ago, and finally it cleared (~2 weeks later) so I decided I would deposit it on Stars and grind some NL2. Turns out I run bad there. In a 1.6k session over 2 days I'm down. I've made my share of bad plays (where 1 c-bet turns into 2nd and 3rd bullets on the turn and river), but the ridiculous string of beats and coolers is kind of frustrating. I'm n...

lol poker.

JerseyMuscle — Sat, 25 Aug 2007 06:34:15 +0000

So I'm that guy that's been lurking around here for a few months or so, not really contributing much(as evidenced by the post count and lack of hands). But recently I decided that I should probably be trying to get better at poker, and this is the best site to help do that. So thus, I may be posting here every once and awhile. The name is Bill, and I've been "playing" poker for ab...
