Thanks Dad

I have had a few problems the last few days after Boss media updated the client software it added an extra "5000000"tag to all the game numbers which my poker software can not read.It became so bad I couldn't play until I found a solution to fix this.Still means I have to mess around a bit to convert & import hands but at least now thanks to a 45minute phone call with my Dad this morning I can do this allot faster than messing around with each hand manually.

I want to apologise to everyone who reads and comments on this blog.After a poster commented yesterday "pokercoach2007" I believe I replied and then all of my comments from every single blog got deleted.Very strange indeed!At first I thought I made the mistake and deleted them but after further inspection you can only delete one comment at a time whilst on comments.I don't know what's happened here so sorry everyone :(

Another thing about the Internets,if you go on twoplustwo be careful as they have been hacked and malware posted onto the site.
I found something strange the other day with an old twplustwo link.I think it was the same day as my comments got deleted.

Teh Eurodonk plan


Level Goal Status/Target
Stage 1 25/50 EUR >>> 2,000EUR/20BI Completed

Stage 2 50/1 EUR >>> 4,000EUR/20BI Current status

Stage 3 1/2 EUR >>> 8,000EUR/20BI Jan 2010

Stage 4 2/4 EUR >>> 12,000EUR/20BI Feb 2010

Stage 5 3/6 EUR >>> 20,000EUR/20BI April 2010

Stage 6 5/10 EUR >>> 60,000 EUR/30BI June 2010

Stage 7 10/20 EUR >>> 200,000EUR (maybe death?)

(After each stage is completed I will go onto the next stage on a strict 3BI shot rule)


I only needed 2BI today to get to Stage 2 so today I only ended up playing 31 hands and quit after making the 2 BI HU.I would sooner start back tomorrow at 50/1EUR a fresh day than move up today.Plus I want to have some fun this weekend and that means drinks tonight :)

Looking at this year as a whole is still pretty disgusting but I look at this as a new challenge and I'm confident I will be at Stage 3 and hopefully very close to Stage 4 come January 2010.

Back on Da Euro

Back playing at Boss.Ended up busting all my USD BR trying to take a shot at PP 2/4NL with just over 3 BI duh!

I had a very annoying start today.27 hands I had to quit before I smashed the flat up.I had to email Boss Media complaining about the software/server LAG.I asked for a refund as I had a flush in a hand but timed out due to LAG.They said the HH has been passed onto the poker site manager and his team to investigate.Pretty funny as I don't know anyone who folds a flush HU yet alone the 3rd nut flush.

In other news I have not played much this last week or so as I have had to catch up with my Youth Work Diploma studies.I'm nearly back up to date now so hopefully I can make a few £K before the months out.
Also another thing I wanted to share is that I finally got out of the twilight hours that Internet poker brings.I used to go to bed at around 4:45am on an average and get up about 1:30pm.It's took a long while ramping down my sleeping times but I manage to sleep no later than 2am and most nights I'm fast away in the land of nod before 1am which enables me to get up about 9am.
This gives me chance to study for a few hours,train for an hour then hit the shower and grab a bite to eat bringing me to about 12:30/1pm to start grinding on the Euro sites.I think the sites are decent 12pm-11pm during the week.
I'm really happy playing back on Euro sites and the tables are super soft.The sleep thing and regular training/fitness defiantly helps too.

My take on the WSOP FT

I have been up around 3hours today.I was watching the live updates last night till 2:30am.I think Antoine Saout has made the most progress and has looked like he will win imo.But Joe Cada is playing very strong and has came back from a short stacks to be right up there.Also Eric Buchman has played well the whole table.Darvin Buffoon Moon that I have dubbed him has got the chip lead back after a shit load of spews. 4bet CR the flop to 15million and folding for 6million more all-in just shows you what a total donk this guy is.He has made some horrendous plays.So far I think he has made about 6 clear errors.The AQ against Iveys AK really upset me and probably the rest of the poker world but even though he is a donk he has to call really as Ivey was pretty short and just starting to get into JAM mode with his short stack.Still a lucky mistake though never the less.The best spew play for Darvin the Buffoon Moon was 3bet shoving his stack 20million over a 1.5million utg raise of Begleiter's.It gets snapped and QQ is tabled and Moon flips over AQ0 getting there on the river for a 40pot.Jesus this game is retarded and it hurts me to read these updates.Moon is worse than Gold by far.Please don't let another donk win this prestigious event please!
