Its been awhile since ive blogged, so this one should be pretty lengthy. Not even sure where to start so ill just start rambling considering I am all jacked up on adderol/oxycodine/mountain dew mdx/parliament lights.

Poker has been extremely shitty for the most part. I ended up starting march out -1k over my first 13k hands. That, along with having to make some large cash outs, have caused me to drop to busto stakes. This past week i've been grinding 50NL, with some 100NL mixed in when I feel I am playing well. Ive been playing 6max for the most part with some FR mixed in occasionally. Every time I attempted to play HU sessions, I run god awful. I don't feel like dealing with the swings of HU with my bankroll being as vulnerable as it is right now, so I am going to put HU on hold for awhile.

I recently switched user names on Stars and FTP to help resolve my negative emotions towards my current screen names(I know its dumb, but it does help me psychologically). I played roughly 3300 hands last night on the new user names, and it actually went well...towards the end at least. I still feel I am spewing in some spots, and am having difficulty adjusting to the players at these stakes. I am experimenting with a few things, trying to adapt to the current state of the games. I think I am getting the hang of it, and really working hard to try and fix my leaks. Hopefully i'll be back at 100NL by the end of March, and back at 200NL by May. Heres my PT screenshot, and graph of the session. If you do manage to figure out my new names, I would greatly appreciate it if you didn't publicly out me. Anyways, here they are. Small sample LDO

I have been getting absolutely raped in tournaments lately. I feel like I am playing well, but the way I have been running is just getting ridiculous. Its not a matter of losing flips or races. I can handle that. Its that none of my big hands will ever hold. Aces, Kings, etc AI pf never hold. Any big hand I flop, sets, etc etc, always find a way to lose. Its pretty insane how ungodly bad i've run the past few months. Check the hands I post for further proof. Hopefully it will turn around soon, but obviously I just got on a new Mtt staking deal, so I will most likely have a big score soon as that always seems to happen when I decide to get staked... Oh well.

As far as life in general goes, its been pretty meh. School is dumb, I am getting pretty decent grades (3.66 gpa). I am talking to my ex girlfriend again, which may or may not be a good thing. We dated for a long time, and are very compatible, but I am still uneasy about the whole thing. I did end up getting diagnosed as batshit crazy by the psychiatrist. Not sure what to think about it. They didn't prescribe me adderol which I am furious about to say the least. Instead they put me on this stupid Welbutrin shit which isn't doing anything for me. I go back soon, and hopefully he'll prescribe me some adderol as this medicine isn't working. I will be starting Gaelic Football training soon, which I am pretty pumped about. I cant wait for the season to start. We have nationals in Boston this year, so that should be pretty amazing to say the least. It should be a good summer.

Thats all I can think of for now. I guess this didn't end up being a terribly long post, oh well.

Peace
Pat

Oh, heres the big hand I stacked the fish in this morning. I forgot to mention I found a 72/7 fish(stayed steady over 500 hands, heh), and managed to get direct position on him. I kept isolating him, at least 2-3 times an orbit, and could not manage to do anything. He kept playing back at the right times, or hitting hands when I would look him up. patience paid off and I ended up getting his entire 500$ stack(about 160$ of it was from me), as well as 2 100BB reloads.

Thx buddy!

dude the last I heard of you you had FT'd a FTOP event and I think you made like 100k (even though it was a stake) how the hell are you playing low stakes now?

fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount

loco, I have to support myself, pay for my education, etc, so I have a good amt of bills. Also got heavily into drugs for a few months, which diminished alot of my cash in hand, along with me not playing any poker. SO yea, you get the idea. I suppose its mostly due to my irresponsibility.

ggplz, I appreciate the posts, your insight is very helpful. Do you have AIM? Itd be nice to chat on more of a 1-on-1 level if youre up for it. Hit me up!
