Since I brought the new jeans I have run pretty good getting the better side of the cooler spots(me with AA v KK rather than the other way around)
I'm starting to think these jeans are some kind of luckbox.
AA x 5
KK x 1
QQ x 2
JJ x 1
AKs x 2
AKo x 4
Since the 15th -17th(midnight my last session) in the space of 255 hands above is the hand distribution.Up 4 BI at 100nl EUR
I updated the software before I started my session just and below was the big hand distribution for the 123 hand session:
AA x 4
KK x 1
QQ x 2
JJ x 1
AKs x 1
AKo x 1
[x] Boomswitch activated
[x] Jeans lucky
[x] Jeans paid for nearly double fold
Sorry if this seems like a lame brag post,but I guess it is and this rush of cards has put a smile back on my face after continually bitting the dirt all year long.
Happy Christmas everyone, I'm sure there is enough boomswitch to go around as long as your not on Boss media ;)

USC Clothes store
Went to this shopping centre today "Meadowhall"Sheffield,England. Ended up spending £250 on a belt and 2 pairs of Diesel jeans.Expensive taste,meh sucks because I'm tight with money and hate spending it :(
I'm at the checkout and I see a sign spend over £100 get £20 off your bill.I'm like "cool £40 notes back in my sky rocket".I ask them if I can get £40 discount,the cashier looks at his manager and she says no because it's one transaction.I turn around and say how about if I pay for half in one transaction then pay the other half on another transaction.She says that will be fine if you want to do that.(I'm thinking £20 is £20 and I'm tight as fuk so I'm definitely doing this even if it means joining back of Que again haha).Seriously though wtf is happening here can't they just do it in one transaction.Took the cashier(thick as fuk weed smoking,pill popping looking type)about 20 mins to figure out how to do it after he messed it up 3 times!I didn't mind as I had 30mins to wait for a group of young people we took out to the shops to meet us back at the meeting point.
Poker has been proving pretty good this month touch wood.I had a terrible night on Monday making 3 huge mistakes then I got frustrated and made a few spews ended up dropping £580 for the night at 200nlEUR 150nl EUR and 100nl EUR.The biggest mistakes were at the 200s.
other than that I'm in the green a good amount :)
I played a few more $1.10c HU sngs and the lat 5 I played went pretty bad,losing the first 3(2 of these to horrendous calls preflop and losing to a 3 outta on both occasions)and only just managing to win the last 2.This fired my AGG-LAG game into play and I decided it was time to play 2nl PLO with about $6.I lost half of this then ended up agreeing to do some flips with some other random English guy.Was fun but pretty obvious I bust my mini FTP bankroll as I don't run too good at flipping unless its pancakes.
Cliff notes:
take some variance at HU sngs,play PLO then decide to flip as there all mirco NITs who manage to make marginal hands hold vs me ldo.
How the hell do I refuse PLO flipaments ever?Come on I am a degenerate

Another Challenge
Official $1.10c into over $1,000 Challenge
Late 2007 before I moved to FTP from PP I had about $1.23c in my FTP account.I started to play sngs at FTP after I won a few.I would quit a $400nl session at PP when the table became allot less EV then play a few HU micro sngs at FTP. It took a long time but basically I turned that $1.23c into over $14k(think it was $15 or maybe $16k).It was really good as I already had around a $20k roll over at PP.By the time I got to around $70ish I started to short BI 20BBs into .50/1 untill I had around $1200/1300ish.Then i remember playing Allen Cunningham at 3/6 HU after I had just cashed in a FTOPS for about $500/$700(can't quite remember).After this I started playing sessions of $400nl and FTP and remember knowing the good times to play PP and the good times of the day for playing FTP.
This was a pretty good exercise for discipline,something that I feel I'm lacking at the moment as I keep playing different stakes over at the Euro sites.
I was playing a friend the other night at PLO 2nl after he shipped me $5 as my FTP account is depleted.After a few games I think I shipped it him all back and ended up with $1.10c spare.the correct amount for 1 BI into the lowest micro HU sngs.I played 4 matches last night and won all,3 vs same really bad and supremely tilted opponent.I just played 3 today and got 2 wins so it looks like a solid start for my challenge.
I don't blog much these days as it's depressing to list all the fails when I'm not doing so well.But from now on I will add an update to my challenge at the bottom of each blog.I will be playing mainly HU sngs until I get to around $70ish then I will start short buying for 100nl like before.

Last month of this horrible year
Last few days for me have been very swingy.I have been shot taking at 2/4 EUR with mixed success.The players seem very solid or very bad.There are not many of the latter.I managed to make £700 on Tuesday for less than 250 hands which was a nice start to the month and I got £250 in rakeback so being up nearly £1k on the first day of the month is fine by me :)
Tonight was a different matter,the tables looked dry so i decided no shots were to be taken tonight.I ended up playing 50/1EUR which turned out to be another cooler session.I swear 50/1 must be rigged at Boss just like no one wins at 3/6 Party
We have all had coolers in the past but it's pretty sick to be 3-tabling and get coolered left right and centre in the space of 30minutes or so.
*Edit*(Missed this hand out.)
Thoughts
#The As hand I know donker is a strong player,maybe my raise should have been 18-24ish but I feel I achieved a good fold.Maybe he might be underplaying Qs or overplaying Js but it sure feels alot more like a set than anything else.I'm either a flip or a long way behind.He 4bets my raise OOP with a player in the middle which indicates a made hand or a combo.I'd go for a made hand as it looks like the player in this middle is drawing and the donker wants to re-protect his hand.I think most players at this site are that tight they would call with a combo or any weak hand.I'm certain this is a good lay.
#I think the T-8s hand I played well but maybe 30-40EUR might have a better chance of getting called?I decided to shove as it looks like I'm turning my hand into a bluff when the board runs out like this.The river 7 is a pretty bad card is it completes 2 pair hands I could have.I think he has 1 pair type hands here?
#The AKs hand I said to myself the other day from now on I should be flatting AKs IP then jamming when people squeeze if their image warrants it.This table was pretty tight like most tables at Boss.basically if you get 4bet at Boss by a good reg he has KK/AA very rare he has AK.Some get it in with Qs from the BTTN/Blinds but most just call the 3bets.I decided to flat here.Think I should just fold pre given how tight people are.Crazy I know plays well different from American sites.
#The Qs hand in the blind I flat the 3bet as UTG is super tight.After he ships it I know there is a good chance he is value pushing AA/KK and trying to get AK or any pair to call.The hands above are in order as played so i guess I took a line that was to get the most value out of the hand but I'm committed preflop.I'm not sure my thinking is right for assuming this player can shove AK in this spot.Looking back this is a fold.This is how tight poker is becoming.
#The Ks hand is pretty standard.I like his line here makes me fold a ton of my range.Just annoying 14%ers get there all the time it seems vs me.
#The set of 5s I decide to go for value and ship the turn as it makes any Ace call from the blinds and any straight draws.I put him on any ace after he called flop and the player was very weak.
#The TPGK hand I added for pure comic value,player folds for 40c into a 100EUR pot or something.Pretty crazy but I'm sure his computer messed up.If it's not his computer he must be very messed up.
I think I'm just going to play 1/2 and skip 50/1 as I have ran supremely bad there.I did well tonight not to spew after having about 3 nights with only 4-5hours sleep in last 5 days.I caught up on sleep last night so I feel very fresh compared to 2 days ago.I know I'm still tired so I quit the session stuck and decided to watch TV until I'm tired enough to sleep.
I'm at a house party on Friday so maybe I'll post a few pics if it does not get too messy.
GL to everybody for December unless your playing at my tables of course ;)
