Been pretty tiring year, considering its my third attempt at beating highstakes (25/50). In 2008 and 2009 I lost 200k on 25/50+ and this year I finally came through and won about 150k.
Total profits for the year is around 450k about 150k behind ev. Pics or it didnt happen below~ Who was the one that wanted to bet that I ran according to ev for the year?? Yea I'd like to bet about 150k that I didn't..
December
December was full of balls, last few days especially. Long story short, had an upset stomach for the last 5 days and it was very very hard grinding 24 tables and vomitting every 30-60 minutes. Glad its over.
2010 Could only take a screeny coz an error came out everytime i tried to do the yearly graph.
In summary I've achieved and surpassed my 2010 goal of making 500k USD (including RB and bonus). I am ecstatic as I fell short last year by about 100k.
I have self excluded my self for a full week of relaxin and partying, and will make a new blog when I'm back about my goals and views on 2011. Happy new year everyone, I won't be posting on the forums till next year. Best of luck to those who are still going strong!

I hate you Wobbly, you are arrogant mofo, poker winnings are nothing when you are such an asshole and nobody likes you..........................................................
I just want to see if you reply before a full week has passed :D
Major congratulations is in order sir, you work very hard and I'm impressed by your volume even more than your winnings, two years in a row. So many high stakes pros I see (especially DC Coaches) don't have the balls to keep playing to stay ahead of competition, and you somehow find the drive.
Congrats and enjoy your well deserved break!
93% Sure!

This is very impressive to me, how does one do so many tables at such high stakes? Where do you find the drive and discipline to play so much? I'd be curious to hear about your mindset.

Most people on this site will tell u my mindset is very childish arrogant and that I am a huge asshole.
But imo I am very rational and tell it like it is.

What would you say are you main motivators Wobbly?
How do you play so many tables/hands and still stay attentive and own and play so many hours with your A game on?
How does your fitness and body composition look like, and what do you eat on a typical day?
Please answer in your free time oh master
93% Sure!

Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.

I'll take you up on that thanks. How much time do you spend studying and stoving hands and ideas when not playing? What kind of things do you do? Look for leaks in HEM? Drop limits and test new ideas?

This is good wobbly, because by all mean you probably worked very hard to make this amount of money. Don't stop yet tho.

Grats indeed, wish I could force myself to play so many hands and hours also. In 08 I was making more than $1/hand so it didnt matter that my volume was low but nowadays I'm not even close to that and I realise that if you want to make big money in this game you have to put in insane hours at the tables, people like you definitely help motivate lazy mother fuckers like me, but I'm sure, knowing me, that it won't last too long. Grats again yo
One day good. One day bad. And some days, even hope

how did being so far behind EV this month affect your play? Were you tilting throughout December or do you think you have that aspect of your game somewhat under control?

Well question: How do you balance the amount of money you keep online with the money you take out to spend? Simple bankroll management of 30-40 buyins?

The handshake seals the contract
From the contract there's no turning back
The turning point of a career
In Korea being insincere
The holiday was fun-packed
The contract, still intact
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts
The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power
Confidence - taken in
By a suntan and a grin
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
Happy New Year!
I started out with nothing and I still got most of it left
