Things that are annoying me

I woke up today with a man hammering on my door trying to tell me I would be better off to switch energy providers blah blah blah.....after about 15 seconds of his mantra I was like "your not listening,I'M NOT INTERESTED"

So my day got off to a bad start.I feel so ffffing tired today it's untrue.I had a fairly good day yesterday and got back to nearly even again after all of this months doom & gloom.

Things that are annoying me today:

• Some clown woke me up
• I'm pretty tired and I get angry why I'm tired
• Party Poker update has messed me up as now I have to manually re size all table onto my primary then move the excess onto my secondary
• Party Have not responded to my mails from over 18hrs ago,I can't wait for this so called VIP high balla level of support to start in February.I'm so going to mess with them like never before :)
• I spent time on Thursday looking at other poker sites VIP reward system and it looks clear as day that PokerStars Crushes the fuk out of every other poker site it terms of bonuses,VIP rewards,Store items,Rakebackpan(once right VIP level achieved).I heard that starts MSNL is a rock garden and have never tried this out.I worked out that I'll be supernova after 1 yrs play and I'll make Platinum after the first month making 28k+ FPP's per month so that's like a new Nintendo WII every month or a PS3 every 1.3 Months.I might be shipping some money over to starts to give them a few months of my time.The only thing that is attractive at party at the moment is if you keep your VIP every month you can change your screen name which is sweet as fuk.I think this is worth a ton if you have an image like I put down this month.So I guess this is making me angry in a way as I can't decide what the fuk I wanna do.

On another note I have put in a fair bit of work on what was going to be a Poo-Bah post for my account at 2p2.I'm not sure what I want to do with it yet as it still needs a little bit of work,but it's shaping up to be a fairly interesting article about alternative ways too maximise our profitability at poker and how to prolong the profitability of the poker games in the current economic climate.It could be worth seeing if I can get it into a poker magazine of some sort.I really don't know how to go about this for best.I hear that Tommy Angelo is a good contact to have to talk about these types of things so maybe I'll approach him if the article has good potential at end result.

"What Ya Gonna Do"

I have been feeling the pressure of variance lately like never before.I guess the only good thing I can think of that may come of this would be that I get to practice greater tilt control.Things have been pretty sick this month to say the least.

Today I just logged on today too play and only got 119 hands into the session before I need to take a break because of the coolers.

Here are the main 3 hands that I got involved posted in the order which they happened.The last hand was the first hand at the table with a fish,so I think his play(for a fish)is pretty good.Obvious he shouldn't have seen the flop but I guess first hand he thinks it's a squeeze,exactly what we intend the play to look like but hey,"what ya gonna do"








I run that bad that this was not even a BBJ table and if it was where the hell was the Jh on the river and the last god dam Ace in the deck on the turn.I mean come on Party if you wanna doomswitch me fine but have decency to drop me the BBJ when I'm at those tables.Not too much to ask I feel :)

I also was looking into big hands and the more I look the more ill I feel.AA aipf 13 times for 85BBs+ lost 5 times.
8/5 with AA all in preflop for the last 18k hands.... wtf is happening KKx2/QQ/JJ/AK

I'm also changing views on AK as I can't win a flip with it against 44/77/99/QQ x 3 and ran it up against AAx2 and KKx3 this month.

AK=AIR imo

Back in teh green

Yes,I'm back in the green finally after a really awful start to 2009.Man the last 10 days I have played awesome(even tho my red line sucks/I had to give up on double & 3barreling my monies off to stubborn regs).I ran about 8.5 BI under EV from 1st-11th of this month.I'm about even on the EV now only 2.25 BI under EV so I can't grumble not to bad for 17k hands :)

Last 10 days

Today started off shocking,I raise AA in MP,CO & BTTN call,SB squeezes $69,BB 4bets Cold $169 pretty much turns his hand face up,I'm thinking of calling but the SB is lol bad and decide I would want to die if they hit something on me(bad thinking?)so I just shove and let the hand play out.Luckily this was only 100BBs,after the board runner runners to ship him with KK a 4card straight board.

I have played really amazing all day taking down pots where I believe I have folded out TPTK and made really non-standard plays against the right opponents to maximize the EV of each hand in each situation.This hand is a classic example of over aggressive maniac types:

I ended up netting $960 for just under 3hrs for the day,after the AA v KK hand and I also escaped KK v AA utg vs MP I 4bet small too induce $102 he trap calls and we both check it down all the way as it's JTK flop blank turn and rivers.I was so happy about how that one played out.Never had that happen before,so really I have $300 more than I would normally have in the spot :)Take a look at it lolzors indeed :)

Also I was thinking today how lazy I have been last year missing out on tons of $$$$$ I should have been grinding towards.I really think you can make allot of money still at this game.One things for sure I'm glad you can now change your SN once at month at Party as everyone will get really used to a certain style which I'm applying in the 6max games.I been thinking about just changing the bet sizes preflop when I change SB just to throw players off the scent mahwhahahaha.

Oh,I got an order through on Tuesday from Full Tilt Poker store.I got lots of stuff clothes and digital camera and other stuff,just wanted to say if anyone wants any FTP poker clothes the Armless Fleece jacket rocks,ima have to take a few shots of me at the poker table with it on because I look like I know what I'm doing when I wear that ;) Pukka mate!

Busting a reg up and a few speed cameras also :(

Yesterday was fun.I made a two fairly bad calls whilst 6 tabling in games which were not that profitable so I was just about to quit then I coolered one of the better regs a few times.The QQ hand looks passive,but his 3bet stat is ridiculously low in this position and he showed down one of the 2 hands I expected to see.



Live Pokahs
I have a friend who likes poker,he is not a terrible player but definitely no where near good enough to be profitable online.He was asking me a fair few times over the last couple of weeks to go too "Dusk Till Dawn". This poker card room is one of the best I've played in the UK.Last night I couldn't believe how busy it was with all the tournaments running.I only played £0.50p/£1 which is the equivalent to around $1/$2nl online.The game a sat in was really soft like it mostly is at that level as it's the lowest spread.I made 0.8 BI for around 2hours grind.I'd been raisin lots IP and had limped a few times UTG with various hands.New player had just sat on my UTG and I decided to limp with AA.He pops to £8 everyone mucks it back to me.I'm thinking this is going to look so obvious now if I pop.I think a little more and decide to pop to £32 as he probably won't be able to fold any kind of hand being as it's his first hand and he may think that I think that he is trying to bully the table on his first hand,and this could be a good reason for my limp-repop.Sure enough he falls for it humming and haring and sticks it in with JJ.Saying this though,he only bought in for £60 so I was pretty disappointed.God I hate games which are not 100BB effective!!!

So my day was pretty good,I think I netted around $1300 online & live combined.It might turn out to be not as good though.My eyes are pretty bad when I'm driving in the dark,I think I busted 3 speed cameras in the 35 mile trip down to Nottingham(DuskTillDawn) from where I live meh!

HH Replayer I forgot about

I found a HH replayer ages ago which I forgot about until reading another blog today.I was trying to get a HH Replayer like Poker X factor so I could show some HH's from sessions or tournaments here to make the blog a little more interesting.I'm not too sure If I can get multiple hands on this site,but here is a nice hand at the end of yesterdays session.

$1350 day feels nice after swinging down $4k.Only 4 BI stuck now so things feel much better and I'm really working hard on my game.

Also I have been into Katers17 for ages and feel that I must show her love here.She has some really funny videos on You-Tube.Go on check them out next time your on You-Tube and subscribe if you think she's cool.

Busy Bee

Wow,this month is insane for me.What a difference a day makes,what difference a year makes more like.I'm banging in hands like never before.I almost have surpassed my biggest volume in one month already.
I'm not just busy at the tables either.I'm working out a ton at the moment.Weights,Running and Circuits.I trained that much today I was actually sick when I got back from my run.Only a little bit of sick but still.I'd not been running for a few weeks so going today was hard.I had to stop and walk for 30 seconds or so twice as I was getting burning in my throat after a lack of fluids before I hit the road,so that was not so clever of me.

I'm running under EV at poker but whatever,with how much I'm playing at the moment I should do well in the next few months after I run through this dodgy spell hopefully.

I was thinking about playing some big tournaments this year,but I guess I'll have to make some money first then decide as I go :)

OK I'm done,this was just a quick post while Party Poker was down.So bad everyone gets disconnected then after 5-6mins me and a fish are HU and rest sat out,I get him for 3 hands then Party goes Kaput!

Solid as wet poop

I really don't know why,but when I play at Party I play very loose in comparison to how I play at Full Tilt.This is pretty bad,or at least it feels that way at the moment because I'm running 9.5 BI under EV and I think I've tilted off about $3.5k(tilt bad play,retarded bluffs,and retarded calls)over about 8k hands I think.

I'm going to take a few days off and have a breather.I'm finding things very hard at the moment,and I think I'm the one making things harder on myself with all the FPS and retarded stuff I've been doing.

I'm writing this as I couldn't sleep tonight.I was tired at 1am,went to bed and just rolled around for 45minutes so I decided to take on Vista at chess.lol.3-1 to me and we got a gay draw as well.Rigged!!!(level 4 ldo,can only win level 5 like 30% of the time and mostly just get a draw)

Nightmares

I keep having this nightmare.The only problem with this nightmare is that I'm awake and it's re-occurring.

I feel that the games are becoming tougher and tougher making it less an less profitable to be a poker player.As our game evolves through this period of financial burden which has struck the world pretty hard,I just keep on thinking "Jesus look at all this NITs"
OK I play pretty tight most of the time so I guess I'm guilty as well.But if you care to look back in time 3month----9months----16months----24months---36months yep you guessed it.The standard just gets better and better all the time.
I think it's defo very good for a player to study this game and live for poker and let poker consume your every thoughts.If you don't you won't get very far at this game.This being said I have always hated on training sites and the coaches that think there pretty good because there a coach for Card Runners,Leggo or Deuces or what other site.Most of the coach's on these site are no where near the top players at each level.
Ask me how I know this,well it's pretty fukin easy.I mean if you knew a good strategy for a game of skill which when you played other players in a game of skill why would you want to give these other players the edge that you have other them?
OK there is an exception to this.I do know that there are good players,even SIK players that do coaching(and it's these guys that I think that are the most retarded!)

Lets try to think of another way how we can fuk ourselves out of another 1-2PTBB/100
