I created a blog just to share my hatred of shortstackers. bring back the 20-50bb tables and let them battle each other there. They are fucking everywhere now and they should all dieeeeeeeeeee.
Been doing decently well at NL 25 rush with a little bit of full ring tables mixed in. Everyone is so nit faggot tight I have to resort to getting most of my winnings from blind steals, 3bet steals, and bluffing. I'd honestly like to play tighter, but against these guys I have to play like 23/21 with 7% 3bet to get ANY action. w/e at least I'm up so far even with the NL 50 fiasco incident.
I was going to write this blog post over a month ago but oh well...I'm a slacker and didn't really feel like it until now.
2010 was not a very good year pokerwise even though I played more hands that in 2009 (214k - soooo many, right ?...NOT) - mostly because of the bet with my cousin to play 125k hands in 3 months. He's got some doubts but I definitely won it. The quality of my play was not at the highest level when I was desperately trying to play for X hours a day just to play as many hands as possible and I was behind the pace in the end of August (the bet was to end on September 30th). I was going mental in September as I had to play almost 60k hands in a month and the most I had played before was I think around 30k. I was running like shit and was forcing myself to play because losing the bet would just suck...I must say that I haven't been more (life and poker) tilted than in the last September.
I ended the year slightly in the green but the final score is still pathetic and I'm not going to make it public heh because I'm just fucking embarassed. Alright let's finish talking about how poker went for me in 2010 and focus on the good stuff.
I closed a great chapter of my life - I graduated from high school and passed my matura exams. I know nothing lasts forever but I still miss those times cause I met really awesome people there and we spent a plenty of great time together. I am going to stay in touch with some of them for as long as possible - hopefully for the rest of my life, but everyone knows that eventually most of us will go on separate paths in life.
In October I moved to Warsaw and started my first year in university. I live here with 2 friends and we're getting along pretty well I think. I pay for everything with my own money, except for uni. My parents insisted to pay for my studies because they feel kinda bad about that my brother, who is 4 years older than me, still gets money from them for pretty much everything he does and they think I should get sth from them too. I'm not complaining that they decided so but I must say it feels nice to be financially independent I would love to be 'food-independent' too but I just can't get myself to cook anything and I'm eating out every day.
Here are a couple of my blog posts with stuff that happened in 2010 for those of you who would like to read sth more:
Alright, that's all for 2010 I think. Let's move on to 2011 !
January was pretty cool. I knew that after a pretty long christmas break I'd need to motivate myself once again to play as much as possible and I took part in a challenge one of the members of Polish LP organized and I set myself a goal to play 60 hours of poker. I know it's not that much for most of you but considering the fact that I'm a lazy slob and I love (no, I don't..) wasting time and that I spent 4 days in Vienna with my gf (I went there to play a poker donkament but busted during the first day, TT v QQ) and also had to study for the exams it felt great to be able to pull that off. But unfortunately, since I came back to my hometown for a 2-week-long winter break I haven't play a single hand of poker in February. I wanted to start grinding today but without going into much detail I changed my plans and decided to finally update this blog and clean up my hard drive. I'm still going to aim for that 60 hours of poker in February cause I need to warm myself up for the gap year.
Oh yes, the gap year. I'm taking one year off from school to focus on poker and travel around the world and just to experience something awesome. I and my friends are most likely going to Thailand for at least 3 months in the end of this year to play poker and chill. I'm pumped about all this and am really motivated to achieve as much as I can pokerwise during that 15 months of freedom. I will probably write much more about the plans for the next year some time soon so stay tuned hehe.
Woke up sunday at 3 pm recovering from being sick all weekend. I think i picked up a cold/flu from my roommate over the weekend and just rested for a few days. Needless to say I was pretty anxious to get back to the grind. I hate taking more than three days off at a time as i tend to feel rusty when coming back- I don't know if I play any worst or if it's more of a mental block. Anyways i spent most of sunday recovering and was going through LP and reading the blogs and realizing what a shit hole of a site this has become. I mean there are some really good reads and entertaining topics of discussion throughout the site but my god there are more morons on this site than ever before. Don't get me wrong, I've said my share of idiotic, hypocritical, and moronic statements, but when 80% of repeating blog posters say, "Today i played 4k hands of rush poker, the most I've ever played in my entire life, and i lost 8 buy ins, what does it mean?!" or "Update: I played 75 sngs this week and made $500!" what can you really say to people? I guess I'm just a little bit envious, because sometimes I wish I was as delusional as these idiots so I could feel all warm and fuzzy about doing jack shit. But I digress. My point is 80% of blogs updating about poker on LP are borderline retarded. This got me thinking, what is update worthy? what is something worth doing in poker that you can publicly point and say I did this, this is me. So this line of thinking lead me to thinking, well I've never put in a 24 hour session. So I did it. I ended up staying up from 3 pm sunday til 2 am Tuesday (35 hours) and 16 tabled 90 man's continuously from midnight to midnight on monday. I ran like shit for the most part. I was fairly upset with the results near the end as I found myself soaking in my own sorrows bitching about every cooler and bad beat. But getting rested up and reflecting on it now, I am proud of not only accomplishing this session, but proud of the results as well. You can't be too upset at making money. Here is the graph:
328 SNG's
23877 Hands
18.4% ROI
$4.14 AVG Buy in
$282 TOTAL profit
$10.81/Hour
And here's EM at the grammy's. I don't know if he was actually singing live or if it was pre recorded but he killed it as usual. Dre made a live appearance for the first time in a decade as well. pretty sick. skip forward to the 2:55 minute mark to listen to "call me a doctor" an "unreleased" duet with Dr Dre.
And these are lyrics from big weenie by Slim Shady. I was going to end this blog with a <3 or an "i love you" to show you all how much i care about you, but then I realized I wasn't a short stacking attention whore who needs my e-dick sucked in order to boost my ego. So how about a nice warm cup of fuck you instead? sounds good. Fuck You.
"You're just jealous of me
Cuz you, you just can't do what i do
So instead of just admitting it
You walk around and say
All kinds of really mean things
About me cuz you're a meanie, you're a meanie"
I finally feel like I have the ability to make a steady income playing poker. I've played nearly 1,000 90 man SNG's in the last 10 days or so and have been doing really great. When I'm running terrible I'm breakeven and when I'm running good I have like a 100% roi. My goal at the start of the year was to play 5k tournaments, but I'm going to change that to 20k.
So I started of with the $3.30's and thats where probably 85% of my volume is. About 12% is $6.50' and the last 3% is $13.
I'm still waiting on a controller in the mail, does anyone here have experience using a controller with table ninja for poker?
So I haven't played as much as I've wanted. I've been sick the last week I feel and haven't really had a good mindset. So the volume goal is not being met yet. Would have played yesterday but V-Day snuck up on me and I had to panic and do something lol.
This is my month so far. All $6 90 man KO's. Played 69 Profit 475. So yeah, it's been fairly productive, even without the volume I'd hoped for.
I've noticed that I have a good chunk more wins than any other cash...which seemed wierd to me, so I did some HH just to see if I'm just running that good or what. Obviously I'm running pretty good, but at the same time, I noticed that alot of people are bad. Specifically in dealing with me 3bet shoving on them HU. For some reason, it seems like people get tired of it and are content with flipping with 75s...and stuff like that. I dunno, maybe I'm missing something but it seems bad to call a 20bb 3bet shove there. Could be me though.
On a side note, I've started playing WOW again, and they have made that game so much better it's not even funny. I'm really impressed with the progress they have made.
Some of my outside of poker goals are going well. I'm sleeping like a normal human again which is nice. I'm eating A TON better. Not sure if I've lost any weight, but I feel thinner and thats what matters...Right? Now that the snow is finally gone I plan on getting outside with my dog a little bit more, which will be awesome.
Anyways, that's all for now, going to play some this afternoon and maybe this evening. Tata
The colors on these monitors are absolutely stunning but I have one gripe about these monitors. The text isn't quite as sharp as my previous monitor. Been going around some forums on calibration methods but it's all for color. And I'm fine with the color/brightness etc. I just need the text to be a bit sharper.
Anybody have experience in this area or any ideas?
Her name is Kayla, she was born on feb 11th à 5:18 AM, it didn't go exactly as expected, 9 hours of labor and then they realized it was too risky for her to give birth the normal way... so she got a Cesarean (baby had its umbilical cord 3 times wrapped around the neck)
but everything ended well, she's super healthy and cute as hell
first 2 days I had to take care of literally everything cuz of the surgery my gf was too weak, she's recovering pretty fast though
It's surpising the joy this little thing can bring into someone's life =)
ok so my friend reminded me about an incident which happened idk maybe a year or so ago.
We were having an LP table at low stakes and it was me and 3 other LPers. As I recall we played for a while and then we started doing flips. Me and a guy had agreed to do a flip next hand according to myself and 2 other people. (confirmed afterward) the guy swears he never agreed to the flip.
What happened was I shoved and he said "my hand is shit I can't call this" and folded
I brought this up to him and he continues to deny having agreed to a flip. What should I think/do
In December I started using Auto Time sheet and let it run in the background.
The total since December 1 is 618 hours. So I spent 8.4 hours/day average each day doing stuff on my PC!
The breakdown is:
13 days clear time internet browser. A ton of stuff is poker some 60% will be LP/DC/vids/PTR and the rest online shows like Hell's kitchen (I saw all episodes) youtube, futurama, and uni studies.
5.3 days clear time poker (Active in client+HM analysis+Pokerstove/equilab+notepad+excel calcs. Analysis took some 25% of my poker)
1.17 days clear time media player (poker vids I dled are in this, but mostly movies)
1.1 days Skype/MSN (mostly poker)
1.6 days Word/power point for writing uni stuff/studying and writing poker notes.
Bottom line is:
Wasted time much lol?
Of the time I am on my PC I spent just 16% clear time actually playing poker at the tables, where that is supposed to be my primary activity!
DC coaches will tell you 'thinking about poker counts too' but I am more like a poker fan/nerd than an actual player! Furthermore, My time spent on studying for Uni is just some 40 hours in last 76 days, which is really not a lot considering that all exams were online this year and the time includes most of my preparation/writing times...
And yet...I feel constantly stressed and tired, my house gets messy all too often, I forget things and I have been in a state of burnout past several weeks with my ability for social interaction reduced, ability to avoid tilt shattered, and my eyes twitching constantly which apparently is a sign of severe stress :O
So I accidentally sat down at an NL 50 6max rush table and I'm like oh shit whoops missed the NL 25 table. I get put on the big blind. I could have played this the smart way and just left and only lost $.50 but I was like naw I'll just bluff this hand win the pot and leave. Then like a fucking retard I do this shit.
