I'm leaving for vegas tomorrow morning. I'll post updates on my progress in the tourney here, i'm sure cardplayer will also have a lot of live updates.
im bringing my digital camera, which i have not yet used. maybe i will post pictures of adventures i go on in the rhino with my massive wad of 1 dollar bills and other quests i may undertake.
P.S. Does anyone know what casino chevy chase went to in vegas vacation where he played guess the number and pick a hand? That seems like my kind of place.
and id also like to know the buffet they went to.
cousin eddie was a fan of the yellow stuff but i really thought the blue dish looked good.

Havent updated this in a great while cause ive been kinda busy. Been a week in italy snowboarding and since then been home at my folks so dont have any pt stats or anything T_T
Ill make a proper update when i come back to my appartment after this weekend.
I just had to share my new record hand. I logged on tonight feeling really focused and with a br close to 70k i decided to take some shots at 10/20.
I was kinda suprised to see how many bad players there are on 10/20, allthough I have to admit there are some really good regulars that scare the living crap out of me. Add to that the fact that im obviously playing a little scared the first time and im glad i ended up for the session.
I was down a bit when this hand came up, I put him on exactly that hand and it felt really fucking huge to win a pot the size of what my bankroll was 3-4 months ago.

I'm usually not the type to be complaining about bad beats... so I just won't. I got pretty much destroyed today and lost a quick $800 in less than 1000 hands. Fun fun fun...

Finally got my money back yesterday night, at like 5am, after talking to some guy who reminded me of the creator of http://www.endofworld.net
Wee.
I then tried to deposit into UB but UB says I don't have that much money! So I look at my account and see that it's in EURO.
Google gogo, and I found a post indicating that you need to change to base currency dollar.. Fortunately it turns out I miss-read that post and that in my own stupidity I had failed to take into account the transaction fees.
Oops.
This led to me screwing myself out of like 50 deposit bonus dollars (maybe more, dunno) cause I deposited a smaller than maximum amount at first ;D
Anway, I decided I'd 1 table for a little bit, until I got used to the software.. I ran disgustingly well, so good in fact that I felt guilty and had to stop.
Started the session off with this (ok, so it's a dozen hands in or something)

I actually thought he had a set and was considering folding right there after his first reraise but then I realized that this is NL25, vs a complete unknown whom I've only seen play for like 12-20 hands..
Meh.
I can't figure out if this was retarded on my part, or just standard.
I definitely wasn't paying enough attention tho, as at first I thought this was an unraised pot, and I didn't see why anyone would check raise a set in an unraised pot.
Anyway, I got 777 vs AQ top pair and he couldn't fold apparently, so that's another buyin, then I get 87 two pair vs the guy I sucked out on, who has KK and get all his chips.
He asked me 'did you get lucky again' when I check raise him, I say yes and he still pushes.
Oh well.
Any input on the hand I posted would be much appreciated, I felt kinda donkish after that hand (maybe I've played too much NL2/HU/very shorthanded, while waiting for my money to come back from neteller).
One argument for folding I guess could be that my first impression of the table was that it's pretty tight..
But then again, seeing how the guy in my 777 vs AQ hand played his AQ top pair for a full buyin.. I'm leaning towards this hand being pretty standard, even though I have trouble seeing what he could have except a set (I guess slowplayed KK, AA)
Also, if anyone plays NL25 on UB and feels like sharing the screen names of some ATMs (donkeys) or regulars feel free.
Opinions on the bet pot button would be appreciated as well, I've seen a few cardrunners videos and muddywater seems to use it religiously whereas green plastic stays away from it, but they play at such a completely different level that I'm not sure their reasons are applicable to me.
GPs reasoning was that if he uses the bet pot button for value he has to use it for bluffs, and then he'll be building big pots with nothing (or something like that).
Which I guess makes sense if you play pretty LAG like him (and like ever so many low stake fishes, I aspire to play that way eventually), whereas muddywater seems much more straight forward.
Ok so I watched Memento last night and wow was that a total mind fuck. The movie was put together really well for being totally backwards. Yeah, the movie is basically played with the ending in the opening scene. Weird huh?
Anyways, here is some of the pics of the house we are trying to move into for the summer in Vegas:

Anyways, here is some of the pics of the house we are trying to move into for the summer in Vegas:
So today I started off playing my session at around 11:00am, and used up 5400 fpp's to win a $215 seat to the Sunday Million. Nolan is right, those things are cheese cake to win. So the Sunday Million was once again a total failure. I searched all morning for people to swap 5% with me in it, but apparently most people are starting to become aware of my less than stellar recording in cashing in tournaments. The only person to swap 5% with me was my boy actionDJ (more on this later). I went out rather quick as it basically went like this: I raise, donkey calls me, I c-bet the flop, donk jams, I fold, and repeat x10 til all my chips were gone. God I hate that tournament so much... Out in 6421st place! I'm so talented yo~
To make matters worse, I was getting destroyed at my NL400 tables at the same time. Nothing was going right for me, it was just sick. I ran QQ into KK preflop twice (although one was vs Weak Tite and I am pretty sure that it was probably a bad shove on my part considering his 3 betting range is much tighter). Made a very marginally thin value bet vs a donkey who happened to have it. Got abused by Daut for about an hour (why the fuck is he playing 2/4 today?) And to top it all off, my boy actionDJ who is very tight/solid for the most part decides that he wants to donate some moneys to me, but ends up running godly and totally owning me in this hand:

No justice at all. So I stopped my session today down about $1225 and decided to watch the movie 'Original Sin'. God damn there is a lot of sex, nudity, sex, rape, sex in that movie! But overall it was a pretty excellent movie. So after I close down the movie I log back onto Ventrilo and hear the amazing news: With 300 players left, actionDJ was 45th in chips in the Sunday Million! Boy he runs like god... But wait! I then realized I still had 5% of his action! Wooot! For the next 2 and a half hours we had about 10 people in our ventrilo channel railing actionDJ's exciting run deep into the Sunday Million. RaiNKhaN was helping actionDJ in almost every move, as we were all listening in. With 85 players left, actionDJ was 12th in chips and I was already garenteed $92 bucks! This is when RaiNKhaN seemed to be desperate for a piece of the pie. He offered me $800 first, but after 5 mins I got him to buy the 5% for $1000 flat. SHIP THAT SHIT!!!!! (You guys can figure out the math on that, but I'm pretty sure it was a good deal on my part) So actionDJ's good run happened to carry over to my good fortunte as well! Yeahhh baby~!! Eventually we got down to less than 40 players and actionDJ was an average stack and jammed with 88, ran into AK. The flop came: 7-8-Q!! Woooooot! Turn T, river J! Everyone in ventrilo went crazy at the rigged nature of tournament poker. I guess this is what happens when people that infinitly good collide at the end of a tournament. Kaaaboooooom!! Anyways, I was playing some NL200 while watching the tournament and ended up nickle and diming my way to $200ish profit. So add that with actionDJ's $1000 profit for me and we got a break even day! Ship it crucial~!!
One of these days... I will run like god too... and you will see... You will all see! Mark my words!
