SENGOKU! Thoughts.
SfydjkLm, Jan 05 2009
Well, the most of the event im somewhat indifferent to, so straight to the title matches.
My prediction was Misaki loss to Siyar and Gomi barely taking it from Kitaoka, with the possibility of him losing as well.
Why, u crazy Pride nuthugger? you will ask. Well, because Misaki is the dying breed of rounded, but not well fighters. He's Wanderlei, he's Nog, he's Crocop. Solid striking, but no evasiveness no head movement, not even keeping his hands up. Semi-suspect chin, somewhat compensated by quick recovery times(exactly like post-pride Nog, mind you), and just basic knowledge of ground defense.
Gomi looked Crocoped. No not LHKed, he looked like post Pride Crocop, nervous, unmotivated, you could see him doubting himself. And sadly there is reasons to doubt. Like all those guys I listed above Gomi is the dying breed of MMA fighters. Fighters that did well because at the time they were more rounded then the others, and having one solid advantage(heavy hands and good chin in gomis case) they just never felt the need to progress. That doesnt mean that you should count Gomi out of any match up, his power is certainly a threat to just about any striker, however thats all he seems to have left working for himself- a puncher's chance. And that is a damn shame, because Gomi-Penn 2, if it is ever to happen, will mean as much as Lidell vs Silva, epic match up, way past due.
Kitaoka looked very very high.
Crocop retirement will perhaps be the first of many too come. Lets hope he "Manhoefs" it tho and comes back strong.

Teh brawl in teh brooklyn?
SfydjkLm, Dec 29 2008
Me and my boy went to an enclosed park(children playground), that would be in Brooklyn. The park is located in a rather quiet jewish neighborhood, its extremely isolated tho, cemetery on one side, backyards on the other, a highway-ish type street on the other, and the last one goes into the street, with closest house several hundred meters away.
That was about 8 at night, well generally it is not the best idea to wonder into quiet places like that in Brooklyn when there are folk there, but im hardly scared of just about anyone, not a brag, please keep on reading. I am a judoka and my boy has extensive background in boxing, tae kwon do and judo.
We take my friends camera to film some shit just cos were bored. we spend about half an hour there with some guys in a proximity chilling with some girls. They start preparing to leave, and we leave too. Coincidentally. As we leave i feel em coming really close, i turn around and i see three guys coming from all sides, fence ahead. They do it without saying a word and i realize they arent some punks, theyre pros. I tell my friend to leap the fence fast, i dont think he catches on. Its about 6 foot fence i leap it in 2 seconds tops, im in great shape, so is my friend, i turn around to see if hes here. To my suprise I see that the guy that was right behind me is even closer, now on this side of the fence. Thats when i realize were in deep shit. My friend did indeed not catch on and now this guy is between us, and the other guys not that far behind either.
My friend is a bit to the side, in the clear of the guy. I make a quick call and tell him to get the fuck out and i start sprinting. He doesnt catch on. I sprint about 12 meters, dont hear any footsteps, turn around and see my friend on the ground. I was acting extremely fast and spot on before this now im fucking lost.
I dont know what to do. My friend is on the ground and i dont fucking know what to do. Its a lose lose situation at this point, i have my friends camera, and if i get into a fight its much deneros fucked one way or another(i did not think of taking it off and putting on the ground at this point). Can i come back and beat them up with perhaps somewhat dazed buddy? If they have a knife were dead, because the place is so isolated if we dont get out on our own noone is calling the police until morning at best.
Now that all takes perhaps 3-4 second. Then i hear bottle crack on my friends head, i see the dudes looking at me now and now i know i have to get the fuck out and call the police. I start running there is a problem tho, i ran the wrong way. There is another fence there, twice as tall. 12 feet or so. I see a stairs nearby leading to some obscure building, railing of the stairs at the same level as the fence. I ran up there however there is a problem. There is about a meter or so between the railing and the fence. Now meter isnt much but im no parkour guy, and i hesitate for a second. Then i jump. I make it, but i cut my hands to shit somewhere.
I open my phone to call 911 and see that it says "Insert SIM." Fuck you Motorola for making this piece of shit RAZR phone. I run to a house and start ringing the bell furiously while restarting my phone. I call the police and just 4 minutes later i receive a call from my friend who now is somehow 2 blocks away from the park.
We went to a hospital. He needed no stitches however there is a slight bruising of the brain. His speech was slightly slurred at first but hes seeming to recover quickly. They left him in the hospital for 24 hour observation.
Some key notes.
Dont go into desolate places no matter how much of a cock you are.
Those guys were pros, had a plan, did just enough to take my friend out. You expect most punks to hit a downed opponent a few, they got him down, cracked him witha bottle went after me.
Police was extremely slow.
911 operator was bloody stupid. "I dont know the fucking name of the street" and "its one block of Ocean parkway(major Brooklyn arter) that way" should suffice.
Police seemed bloody stupid as well there were 4 guys and each of them asked me the same exact questions despite all standing next to each other. Right one after another.
I was extremely torn whether I shouldve called the police or go help my boy. I expected the police to be savvier and react faster. From now on i will have to make marginal situational calls based on perceived intentions. If the attackers are out for blood, you cant wait for police, your buddy will be permanently disabled by the time they come.
Train sports. I doubt i couldve escaped if i didnt.
Thoughts? Comments? I definitely dont feel happy about today.
LeggoPoker Trial
SfydjkLm, Dec 23 2008
Whenever I open my email i see that name: LeggoPoker. They are pretty keen on sending me notifications about useless promotions and other equally irrelevant crap. I just never got to marking them as spam till this point, the annual cleaning of mailbox.
And I'm glad I didn't. Because the last E-Mail has informed me that they're having a Christmas time promotion(which is- i bet- is there to become a permanent thing), a 7 day free trial, no sign up fees, no cancellation fees(it actually doesnt say on the website, i had to email them to receive confirmation of that) and only 30 dollars a month reccuring.
Now that is exactly what made me subscribe with DC. I was planning on saving up for CR until i took a 7 day free trial- with no intention of staying. And it made me realize the value of Krantz, and FWF and BalugaWhale and the rest of them guys who delivered sick content at a fraction of a price of CR.
LeggoPoker used to use the CR pricing model- enormous sign up fees and paying in bulk. Thats why I never considered them as an option. But now when they adopted the modern pricing system(something for CR to think about- why leasing works so much better then financing, so to put it) they become affordable for even microstakes grinder. So for you, lil' fellas thats a quality option, get a move on it, 7 days of non stop poker goodness.
[?] Computer Security
SfydjkLm, Dec 23 2008
Was just wondering what sort of programs you guys use, for antivirus, firewall and whatever else thats needed. Never really had any problems with viruses or whatnot just by being careful with what i download and where i go, but i guess having rolls online entitles to some more protection.
Motherfucker

WCBOOP Finals
SfydjkLm, Dec 21 2008
GLGL Fellas
wtd w/ 215$ ticket?:P
SfydjkLm, Dec 20 2008
So i played in Step 3 with the ticket i won in WCBOOP and i got a ticket for step 4. Now 82 dollars i didnt really care for, but 215 is a hefty sum of money. I'd definitely sell the Ts if it were the case, unfortunately it isnt. Ill have to play in one of these tourneys:
Sunday Warm Up
750k Guaranteed
12.20-3837 entrants, 585 paid, 383$ payout
Sunday Million
1.5m Guaranteed
Step 4- Sunday 500
1-3 Sunday 500 entry(530$)
4th- 210$
Now being donkey i am and never playing in tourney with a buyin over 11 dollars, in which of those will i have the biggest edge?^^
How deep are the payouts in Million and Warm up?
Is it better to gamble it up in a big tourney or try to nit it out in 9 player Step 4? In Step 4 are first 3 tickets to Sunday 500 sellable?
