The weekend and poker
EXCELED, Apr 12 2009
I hope everyone had a great easter weekend and ate way to much lol. My family ended up having a Easter lunch because we were all to busy for a dinner. I definitly ate my face off and brought some left overs back with me to London lol.
Anyways I had a pretty good weekend back home. Friday it was beautiful outside so a bunch of us decided to get a game of road hockey. We got a few people and planned on having a 3 on 3 with 2 goalies but when we got to where we usually play someone was already there and they were using our net which we left there last time we played. No biggie. We asked them if thye wanted to play us and they were down lol. We had some pretty awesome games actually lol. It was a lot of fun but man my legs are dead now. Ever since hockey finished I havent been getting in a lt of cardio and shit. I really need to get back into a workout routine lol. Once schools over thats the plan.
Saturday my family had a little turkey lunch. All I can say is I love stuffing lol. After that my dad and I went to the Toronto FC game vs Dallas. I love going to these games because the fans are hilarious lol. There was a player named Cunningham who used to play for Toronto but he now plays on Dallas. During the game he ran over Torontos goalie and the entire stadium started chanting "T.O REJECT" lol. It was hilarious. They were all over Dallas the whole game and should have won like 4-1 but it ended up in a tie. I love going to these games but man Toronto FC sucks! lol. Im so used to watching the EPL and Champions league games on TV and stuff and the MLS is not even close to the skill level. Still would never turn down tickets to a game though lol.
The game finished up around 6 and I got home by 730. My buddy Ty asked me if I wanted to go out and grab a drink with him and my friend Sabrina. Sabrinas been bugging me to go out and get a drink with her one time when I came home so I decided to tag along. We went to a little bar close to where all of us called M&M's. Nice and cheap pitchers lol. My other buddy Tommy showed up little later too. All of us go to school in a different city or are working full time now so it was nice to get togehter with them and catch up. We all ended up going back to Sabrinas new apartment for some more drinks and Sabrina called over some friends. Her room mate just moved out so she didnt even have a tv lol. We watched some stupid vids on Youtube then decided to play some drinking games. We played Kings and I got fucked over in that game and ended up getting pretty drunk when we were done.
Since there wasnt much to do at Sabrinas and because there is hardly any bars in the city Im from we all decided to go bowling. Thats right... bowling lol. I hadnt been bowling in almost 4 years Im guessing so I thought it would be fun lol. We rented the lanes for an hour and it was like $40... wtf? lol. Anyways we grabbed some more drinks and started playing. I took down both games lol. Who knew I was so good at bowling lol? After that we all called it a night. Pretty good one at that lol. I didnt think I was really that drunk but when I got home I felt so smashed lol. Now that I think of it I drank way more then I thought last night.
I woke up this morning a little bit hurtin so I decided to just watch a movie. I ended up watching the new Fast and the Furious. It was actually pretty lame. The trailer hypes it up way to much lol. I give it a 6/10. After the movie was over I ended up getting a ride back to London with my buddy. When I got back and unpacked all my shit I decided to put in my first session of the weekend.
I origionally wanted to put in 6k hands this weekend but that never happened. I havent played the NL25 games on UB yet so today was the first shot at it. It went very well and I got stuck at a dream table with 3 huge fish sitting pretty deep. I ended the session up just over 2 Buy-ins. Pretty nice way to start off NL25. After that I decided to try out another 6 max tourney because I did really well in the last one I played. This one went very well too and I really thought I was going to final table it but I ended up going out 11th place Made $40 though lol. So on the month im up $300 in tourneys. Not bad.
Heres the cashgames so far.

Cant really complain. Im glad im back at NL25 because NL10 is just a big pain in the ass. Hopefully I can keep it going for the rest of the month, put in lots of hands to get a nice rakeback at the end of the month and maybe take down a tourney as well. That would really make for a great month lol. The goal is 1.5k profits this month so hopefully I can reach it. Might be hard thought with exams and shit come up but who knows.
Anyways Im gonna go blaze with my room mate and wreck him at Halo.
Cheers guys ![](/images/smilies/bier.gif)

A little success
EXCELED, Apr 10 2009
I had a pretty solid day today at the tables. I manged to get in about 4k hands which is great because the more hands I can put in the more rakebac I get and I can clear my bonus faster.
I made the switch to UB last week and so far it been alright. I definitly like Stars a lot better but I gotta be somewhere that I can get rakeback and UB was the best for me since I couldnt go to FTP. But so far its been a good pick.
For a start today I didnt dig myself a hole to climb out of all day which was nice. I was trying out full ring for a while but its just so boring and I really wasnt doing that well in it so I went back to my ol' 6 max. Good thing I did. Since then Ive made about 10 buyins in the last 3 days, 3 of those buy ins coming today.
I had to drop back down to NL10 because I went on a shitty downswing before I switched sites and I wanted to buy a few things so I kept enough to have a solid roll for NL10 and I also got the 111% deposit bonus which when cleared I will be rolled for NL25.
Ive been playing in a few more tourneys then usual. Watching all the SCOOP tourneys inspired me to improve my game a bit there. It would jus be so sick to take one of those puppies down. Would be life changing for sure. The tourneys on UB arent that grate. There no where close to as big prize pools as Stars but the fields are WAY smaller lol. I played in a 2k Gaurntee 6 max tourney today and did awesome. I managed to come 3rd for $280. I made a sick call vs a monster stack and he lucked out on me I would have had a 8 to 1 chip lead going into heads up but hey what can yea do. Im glad I did well in this tourney. I actually enjoyed playing a tourney for once lol. Im going to probably try and play in atleast one a day from now on. Hopefully Ill get a big score one day lol.
So with that win from the tourney I dont have to grind that shit NL10 anymore. I can get back to NL25 and start owning it up! This tourney score couldnt have came at a better time :D Im not sure how the NL25 plays here on UB but Im guessing its just going to be a fish pond with a few crazy nits. Should be fun.
Tomorrow Im going back home pretty early. My old man is going to be here at 10am and its fucking 4am right now lol. There no way Im going to get to sleep. I still got some adrenaline from the tourney going lol. Might just rip a bong and hope It does the trick. My old man got Toronto FC tickets for the game on Saturday. I love going to these things even though Toronto FC is garbage. The fans make the game lol there hilarious. Pretty pumped for that.
Anyways guys I gotta crash.
Hope everyone had a good day at the tables.
CHEERS! :beer"

little rant
EXCELED, Apr 08 2009
I havnet posted in a bit because Ive been pretty lazy and to be honest... theres not much to update. I have been running like absolute shit the last while and its frustrating as hell. Im getting my money in good a lot of the time and ppl just keep drawing uot on me for fuck sakes. My last 10k hands are fucked you should see soe of the coolers. Ive also been breakeven for them too! I just cant get any momentum going. I get up a bit then some fuck will call my 4 bet with A9 when I have KK and the flop will come 299. Its frustrating. I am minus $200 on all ins. I checked and over 75% of them I am favoured when I get it in. If it werent for rakeback id be way more pissed. I need a fucking heater and I need it now plz.
