Gonna set some 2011 poker goals in the coming weeks.

Gonna be a lot of fun seeing him again, he visited me in my summer house last summer, and we did some fun stuff like taking a friends boat (500hp rubber boat) over to Copenhagen.

Omg you asshole. I seriously think I just vomited in my mouth a little. I'm 4-tabling away at work thethered to my cellphone, and you fucking barge into my office, asking if I read a stupid fucking email about using the wi-fi hotspot option on your cellphone. Are you fucking kidding me? "Lolz, I just read an article that says you can do this for free on t-mobile, omg you wanna talk about it?!?!" The problem is, I was about to face an allin spot, and knee deep in pots across 2 other tables. 3 tables with probably 200BB's worth of action going down. I keep task manager running so I can terminate the Full Tilt client and be staring at my desktop like "wut".
Fuckin dickheads, quit reading random articles about shit you have no idea of and then coming to chit chat with me to make yourself feel smarter, dont you see I have work to do?
Here is a longtime poster/lurker/reader... and after few years I finaly decided to start my own blog. Idk how often it will be updated or what I'm gonna write about ... but I'm sure it would be a tone of poker,drunkstories,pictures,interesting stuff etc..
First I gotta say sorry for my not so great english... it's my 2nd or 3rd language ... hopefully it will improve more, also this is my first blog so forgive me if it sucks
Now to tell something about myself...
I'm 23 years old human resources student from Serbia (you probably have no idea where that is lol... Europe ). I'm low/mid stakes 6max grinder, I was a robot FR player for few years playing casualy, cashing out my wins... investing into all possible ways of fucking around. Started taking things seriously last year.. grinded, probably not enough... made money,cashout a tone, took few months off... got coached by 2 realy good coaches , improved my game, started grinding again, cashout a tone etc.. This year i decided to realy push myself into grind plaining to gring at least 40-50 hours a week.
This year didn't started as I expected.. curently running lika a horse shit
I decided to move my roll to PokerStars from FTP, I also decided to spend like 350 000 + ftps into cash bonuses... and this is how FTP rewards you for it
all is nl100 rush poker 6max.. played good... had tone of setups,coolers, badbeats... you name it ;p http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/64b2c2b7322543ffb2a042b0cc71530c.jpg
So after having a very healty bankroll... few bigger cashouts, few bad runs ... I am here w/ very limited bankroll lol ... i'm probably gonna grind 4 tables of rush poker nl100/nl50 and try to release this bonuses and then move my roll to pokerstars or maybe some euro site ... i have a few days to think about this
On a side note... just finished shootaa's "The Blue Book".. defenetly learned something from it, improved my way of thinking about poker... but it def. is overpriced...
Probably gonna watch The Eightfold Path to Poker Enlightenment by Tommy Angelo... just to take my thoughts of this bad run ;p
Anyway... Good luck everyone, let's crush this year
2010 was pretty poopy. Lost money on the year due to low volume and runbad; but here's to 2011!
Goals are:
-play 50k hands a month online
-play 100 hours a month casino
-be comfortable deep 10/20 live again by the start of the WSOP
-Win a bracelet
-6 figure MTT cash online
-$250k+ year
on a withdrawal request from Full Tilt from November 12th . . . Why would anyone play on a site you can't get your money off of?
It's not real money if you can't get the cash, is it?

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/882163 - Fairly sick 2/4 pot. I stopped counting outs when I got to the straight outs and decided that "fuck his 65, I'm not good enough to play the river anyway". Then it bricked and I won and I was like "u mad?! :D"
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/881842 - This hand I'm not sure about, tbh I though I was dead on the turn when he calls me but I can't really give up on one of the best cards in the deck with those odds. The guy who folded seemed to pay of a lot too.
So right now I'm up a little bit. Played like 12k hands so far this month, which is fairly good.
I have no given up my hopes of being some super high stakes balla. I've made smallish six figures two years in a row now but my swings have been huge. What it all comes down to is that I just can't compete with a lot of the really good 10/20+ players. There's a fairly good chance that a bunch of them are just a lot smarter then me. I thought I was smart until I started law school... Either way I just can't compete playing half time vs really smart people who dedicates their lives to poker.
I was super happy when I read on of the high stakes super volyme-people's blog and realised that my hourly was fairly close to his (but obviously I've been running better). I don't want to play 100k hands per month though. I want to be able to work out, put at least some effort into school and have a nice social life. I also want to put a lot of effort into managing my stock portfolio since it's been horribly ignored for to long and I want to get involved a lot with the Swedish Libertarian Party.
In 2011 I hope to make a decent profit and get a fair bit of hands in, but I'd very much prefer to keep the variance lower. I'm tired of swinging like a mad man all the time so this yea I'll make an effort to table select a little bit more and try to play more on mid stakes and have less 5/10+ HU battles with good regs. I'll also start coaching a bit. Only profit sharing deals though, and only people I feel might have some kind of talent and a personality I can stand.
I'll probably not be a euro millionaire before 25 anyway, so I might as well sit back and go with slow and steady instead of fast and chaotic. It'll probably be better for my mental health too.
So, I'm renting a car with a friend. It's, say, $500 each for insurance. He doesn't wanna spend that much on it, but I don't wanna go around without insurance. But if we crash or something, we're obviosuly gonna split the cost. So I came up with this: I pay him the $500 that would be my half of the insurance to HIM, and we get no insurance, and if something happens, it's all on him.
Am I out of line, am I an asshole, is this fair enough, what do you think?
EDIT: so he doesn't want to get the insurance because he can't really afford it (tho he will get the money somehow if some crash happens), it's not like he simply doesn't want to pay it. Does it change your opinion?
Made my first 100k when i was 18.
1mil in poker before I turned 21.
And now.. To speed up the process of taking over the world, I made an aggressive investment.
1000 Entry to Mega Million jackpot of $330 Million.
January 4th 2011 will be the day Song's world domination will start. Anyone who wish me luck will be invited to the most unreal epic party mega millionaire has ever hosted. I will then use the remainder of the party funds to torment people who gave negative energy to my lotto drawing.
Laugh now brothas. Tomorrow will be the day u all will be diseased of jealousy.
Can't complain about 2010. The following is in play-money:
Cash: 39000 incl. rakeback (290k hands played)
Only really worked hard 3 months of the year and earned what I deserved. Will outline my goals in the bottom section but definitely going to increase volume. Perhaps I can grow up and be like Wobbly...
No graph as I lost my database a few times.
Tourney: 21500
Had a lot of really close but not there. These are really frustrating (especially for my personality) but I have to force myself to play them. Missed them for a few weeks but will get back on the horse soon.
Played a negligible amount of live cash - was able to breakeven on travel expenses so that is a victory.
So we have 6 stacks of high society. My goal was 100k, but that was simply a random number thrown out probably on an upswing. Going to be more specific this year.
Goals (wealth, health, relationships)
Wealth (Poker):
I think throwing out a monetary goal can be helpful for some but isn't for me. Instead, this:
- Participate in tourney grind 4 times a month (barring obvious circumstances)
- Play close to as much as I did in Oct./Nov. (my two biggest months because I had the biggest volume)
- Play at least 2 large live tournaments this year (should be fun)
If I religiously follow the above two, I am sure I will have no problems achieving results to brag about.
Health:
Still the heaviest I have ever been in my life weighing in at 82kg. I haven't done the tourney grind because I am not confident I can maintain peak mental ability for 10-11 hours. The biggest change I can make is in diet. Perhaps the best thing I can do is find a badminton sparring partner who I can play with multiple times a week. Or actually try P90X.
- get back to 70kg
- please get into some consistent exercise regime with friends (see relationships)
- I feel reluctant to write about controlling what I eat, as these are supposedly the years to "pig out", but: have slightly better control with eating choices. If that only means drinking 10 less milkshakes this year, well, meh.
Relationships:
You become the people you spend time with. If you hang out with nits without ambition then you'll be just that. Spend too much time on liquidpoker and you become an asshole (I kid...don't ban me!) I'm sure I have a different mindset if I hung out with Loco and probably would have made more last year if I roomed with Neilly (or would I?)
Well, the only golden nugget here is being in a relationship = having no friends. Hope I can improve this year... :o
