If you are coming from USA to EPT Warsaw ( 20th October ) then I have an offer for you! Make 200-300$ without risk! ;o
Im looking for someone who can invest exactly $2050 and have a credit card that has his billing adress registered to his USA adress, due to security reasons:
We ship all orders to the billing address on the credit card. We will honor your request to ship to another address. In order to ship to an alternate address, you need to contact your issuing bank, and have then add the shipping address as your alternate address. This is to protect the cardholder of unauthorized credit card transactions.
I am looking for someone who can buy a watch from a reputable e-seller for me and bring it to EPT Warsaw, where I will pick it up and pay in either hard cash ( euro, $, pln for the tournament, ur pick ) or make a PokerStars transfer when picking it up.
Basically, if u are coming to Poland for EPT Warsaw, u can get a free 200-300$ ( taxes dependant ), risk free.
If you are worried about any risk, I can get ultimate vouchers from this site, who simply guarantee 100% no risk.
Before questions start:
Im doing this because same watch that costs $2k in USA costs $4,3k in Poland.
Yes, I cross-posted this at 2p2 as well, since they have some players that regularly come to EPT's.
If I dont find anyone, then I will just spend more money, but I would prefer to save some cash and let somebody earn some as well.
small sample, obv i hit some hands. but it felt good, not different at all from 50nl, same fish and same regs pretty much.
hopefully i can make a full transaction to 100nl at next month or so : ) will chicken out a little bit and play mixxed 50nl and 100nl rest of month atleast!
80k hands completed this month so far! only 20 to go
got my first "struggle" at 50nl but im still doing well there.
here are some stats and shit:
feel like ive adjusted pretty good through the limits, and def have an edge over like all regs on 50nl imo (not to sound to cocky but they are pretty bad..)
Dealt to glibaaa
ashshashin raises to $1.75
fold,
glibaaa calls $1.75
fold,
STRUNZZ raises to $7.25
ashshashin raises to $55.93 AI
glibaaa calls $54.18
fold,
Flop (Pot : $0)
Turn (Pot : $0) RIVER $119
ashshashin shows
Pre 19%, Flop 12.8%, Turn 4.5%
glibaaa shows
Pre 81%, Flop 87.2%, Turn 95.5%
glibaaa wins $116
(im glibaaa, stunzzz is a 13% 3bet squeezes like 15% from blinds, and ash (UTG) is a TAG reg who knows stunzzz is squeezing light aswell)
the squeezer squeezes really light and UTG raisor is pretty bad reg imo and dosnt balance himself in 3bet/4bet pots really well so i though this was a really good spot to flatcall with QQ on BTN to either play postflop really well vs UTG and if bigblind squeezes (like he does) and UTG folds and i 4bet the squeezer is gonna get it in with me with prolly 88+ and KQ+ since he thinks im full of it (we've had alot of 3bet-4bet wars and he would put me on a small pair 100% of the time almost) Also as if it plays out as it does its snapcall and big smile too
from busto at the end of last month, only inwaiting 250€ rakeback for my roll. to now having 1600€+ on my account
(sorted by day)
im just so happy im winning again, so so so happy rebuilding my roll has gone so well so far, i was so close to just giving up poker last month.
my life is alot better now too, going up at a decent hour every day for a good breakfast.
Almost been training every day too and have been eating alot of healthy dishes.
think its helped my pokergame alot to just giving me a sharper mind.
after a 3 month downswing now i can pick it up where i left it 4 months ago : )
50nl has gone really well too, hopefully i can get up to 100nl soon once again
now im gonna watch
" Phil Galfond HSA Review (3)
Phil focuses on a mix of interesting NLHE hands from his HSA series!"

Hello there good sirs and madames. Tomorrow is my 25th birthday, so give me some birthday wishes etc. I'm not that much of a holiday person, but I have to do a little bit of something, I can't do nothing. Some of my friends recently left the country though, so I'm a little sad about that and recently I'm trying to drink the least amount of alcohol possible so I'm not gonna go partying or anything. I think what I plan on doing is just going out for some food with a few friends and the girlfriend then coming back to mine and just chillin' with a few drinks and nerding in my apartment room, nothing special but I prefer to be in smaller groups of people anyway.
The reason I'm not drinking lately is because I started getting personal training at the gym 8 days ago and making the biggest effort I've ever made to get fit and healthy. I'm currently around about 5ft 10 (178cm), 74.7kg (165lbs) and 20.x% body fat, obviously I need to cut that body fat way down and pack some muscle on, and that's my goal. I'm going to the gym everyday so far, walking 50 minutes everyday and doing some light weights and various other exercises 3 times a week. I have the time, money and drive to make some serious progress this time around (I made a few half hearted 1 month attempts before where I did close to 0 cardio, only went to the gym 3 times a week and continued to drink and eat bad foods) but there's a few nutritional details I'm not sure about yet. The problem is, when I'm home and I'm sitting in my chair and I have nothing better to do I just waste away the day, I'm lazy as fuck when I'm home alone and it takes some serious effort to get up and make food. So what I really wanna know is what are good healthy high protein, low fat "snacks" that I can make real quick or simply pick up and eat straight out of the cupboard/fridge/whatever, if anyone has some good nutritional advice, please share because nutrition is my main concern right now as my Personal Trainer takes care of all the exercises that I do and I don't have to worry about that. I'm already feeling slightly healthier and more awake during the day as opposed to in the past, and feel like I'm going to be able to stick at this this time around so I'm really feeling good about that.
Poker lately has been fairly bad. Last blog I posted I was up over 10k just over half way through last month, running well, playing well etc and I got up to a peak of +$15k for the month 1 or 2 days after the blog post. However things quickly turned around when I took some 20 buyin shots at $10/$20 (Don't worry I have more money offline so it's not like I'm playing out of my bankroll) that went very poorly and I ended up being down $1k for the month a week after the blog post, which was my biggest trough for the month. In the end of the month I finished up somewhere between 5.5 and 6k with some continued success at $5/$10, but it was disappointing overall because I felt like I was just beginning to get into a good momentum, and was hoping to run well at $10/$20 and make that my main game for the rest of the year, but alas, it didn't work out.
This month things have started out poorly aswell. I've only played $5/$10 and I am actually up money, but I'm not doing well in showdowns as my hands are either not holding and my draws are not getting there and I've also already had 2 set vs oversets in this small sample, but I guess the fact that I'm up is a positive and I do feel like I'm playing well. I feel more focused in my sessions, possibly the working out and eating healthier in general is having a positive effect here and overall I feel like things are going to turn around for me this year and I'll end up having a reasonable year by the end of it even though I'm only up like $20k so far this year.
Month stats so far:
Anyway, wish me a happy birthday and those who know what they're talking about can leave me some nutritional advice for my birthday present *^^*
im going towards the traffic lights, and in momentary lapse of concerntration - i smack into the bumper of the car infront of me.
this is standard?
like losing AA vs KK?
happens eventually?
coz apart from losing my licence to DUI - ive never had any crash, speeding or parking violations in my life and i feel like my fucking record is tarnished for life and i feel like shit.
I crashed into some middle aged woman who was a fucking lawyer of all things, and obviously dicks her car. better than crashing into gang members, but worse than crashing into a student in a piece of shit van.
no one injured, car damager minimal (to mine and hers - although she said she gonna go to panel beaters and shit although its all paintwork) so i guss its good.
I cant help but think fucking chaos theory - and to top it off, guy in car broke up with his gf like 3 minutes later over the phone and walked home all upset.
mostergrindaments month, 100k hands challange. (alot for me)
2 days almost completed, ran pretty bad yesterday and have ran into higher sets 3 times over these hands, but cant say i run bad really since im getting my share of the good end of setups aswell.
good month 1 time !
gonna put in another 2k hands later today, now its lunch time!
The massive tilt ups/downs in the middle are actually not as tilty as they look, its tyr tables, i think 240TYR = 100EURO or something. i mixed in some 100NL tyr tables some halftilty session (on BOSS they offer euro/tyr/dollar and gbg tables) but ANYWAYS!
over last 1.5 months, rakebackpro ftw, lol.. i feel sad when i look at my graph since the last sitetransfer
Today I played the longest session of poker that I've played this month ~1k hands for about ~1k profit, which is nice but not the main reason for my happiness. First of all, I was simply happy that I actually played a longer session for once, and that it was at $5/$10. My HEM stats have been set to "This Month" for the entire month and I'm really happy that I've only played $3/$6 and $5/$10 and not pissed around at $.5/$1 or $1/$2 like I did in previous months. Anyway I changed "This Month" to "All Hands" and saw that I've reached a milestone of winnings on PokerStars:
BB/100 = ptbb/100, I didn't like the bb/100 stat since I'm so used to seeing winrates in ptbb/100. In the past months I cared too much about my stats on PTR and played too much at lower stakes trying to make my stats pretty, but I should've never cared simply because these are the only stats that matter. I've already crushed $.5/$1 and $1/$2 in the past (The stats used to look much better than they do now =[ ) and I should only care about playing for the maximum success and profit. This is only Stars and a few FTP hands.
Here are the stats just for this month:
As long as I keep this up it'll be the 2nd 5 digit month in a row, the first time that's happened (If it happens) in quite a while due to inactivity this year and playing too many low stakes in the past months. If I can continue focused, put in a lot of hands and only play at reasonable stakes then I should still be able to salvage a decent year. At the moment I'm probably up about 25k or something for the year which is pitiful considering I made about 10 times that last year. I still have a few months left though and if I play a lot and play well I can still make the kind of profit I was hoping for when this year started. I'm not sure I can force myself to do it alone though, I don't talk poker to people anymore or hang around with poker players and self motivation has always been a problem for me. Perhaps I'll try and go to some live tournaments when I'm back in England in November, maybe visit some poker players too and try to get more involved with the poker community in general. I definitely have to do something, but this is a nice start and this blog post itself may help me, just as a reference point, I can look back on this, see that my lifetime stats are perfectly fine and I don't need to worry about proving myself or looking perfect in every possible database when they clearly lack a lot of hands and information and are thus not even worth bothering about.
I only wanted to write about poker today, I'm happy with how this month has gone in terms of results and in terms of stakes played, I just need to continue this momentum and start playing more. I guess that's all I needed to write for now.
