Life and LiveAs mentioned before I hardly played online poker, so Wednesday we finally had a live tourney again. I didn't go to the PCA (Elky u stupid #$%#$%^, nah but congrats FO REALZ) and I'm happy with that decision. I traveled so much I needed some time off and play some online. Luckily I only did stress increase stuff online so I might as well start travelling again <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/smiles/smile1.gif" alt=" Smile" />. At least I don't have time to donk off my bankroll online. I drew Jorryt (TheCleaner11) to my direct left, which is just a nightmare. I think out of all the people playing in the tournament I would like to have him on my left the least. Don't matter that much tough, cause I always enjoy talking to him.I ran into his Kings with my Queens but I could have avoided paying him off on the river, more on that in my next article. I had to make a tough fold with <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/kh.gif" border="0" alt="{k-Hearts}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/9h.gif" border="0" alt="{9-Hearts}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /> on <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/9s.gif" border="0" alt="{9-Spades}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/3s.gif" border="0" alt="{3-Spades}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/9c.gif" border="0" alt="{9-Clubs}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /> <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/5c.gif" border="0" alt="{5-Clubs}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /> <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/da.gif" border="0" alt="{A-Diamonds}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" />, but it was a good one. Mad folding skills yo. I worked my way back up from 2.5k (10k beginstacks) to 13k. In the meanwhile I got moved to another table and had Joris Jaspers on my left this time (JazzyDonk online). I always feel like he plays kinda similar to Jorryt, so not much improvement. He had a huge stack and was really active. The table gave him too much respect from what I understood from the tabletalk. After a while I called a pf raise by him with <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/10d.gif" border="0" alt="{10-Diamonds}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/8h.gif" border="0" alt="{8-Hearts}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /> from the big blind. We are superdeep and he raised 2.5x plus there was a caller I had position on, so small blind.. (GEE REALLY). I flopped <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/9d.gif" border="0" alt="{9-Diamonds}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/jc.gif" border="0" alt="{J-Clubs}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/qh.gif" border="0" alt="{Q-Hearts}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /> en he had <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/ks.gif" border="0" alt="{K-Spades}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" /><img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/cards/10c.gif" border="0" alt="{10-Clubs}" style="margin-bottom:-3px;" />, good game lex.I skipped the 1k event, cause I was dead tired and I had a really bad day Wednesday. The cashgames went pretty badly too, but I had a lot of fun with Bart Spijker and Ton (Patek3970) on the table. They are just awesome and I love their humor and the way they taunt me. They always call me bat and vampire cause I'm pale as fuck and play such long sessions. They always make vampire/bat-related jokes which just crack me up. Anyways I stayed at home and decided to play some online poker the evening, but more about that later.Today I went to a Greek restaurant with Remi and Niki and e watched 300 tonight. They didn't see it yet and I just bought the HD dvd, enough reasons to watch it. The screen was spectacular and the movie rocks obviously.<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rZBA0SKmQy8&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rZBA0SKmQy8&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>That made EL OH EL. Or as we normal people say in europe, lol. I would say that word so much less if i actually had to spell out the words, like americans do (no offence). El Oh El , Oh Em Gee...Online PokerMehhh it was kinda rough on saturday. I started at around 10. I was playing 3$-6$ NL shorthanded. Everything went pretty uneventful, but I had a feeling everything would be alright and I would play until i was up a decent amount. Unfortunately this moment never came. Hence, I quit playing monday morning at 3 am. I lost about 20 buyins, but I feel I played really well. I made some strong folds and calls here there.Example: <a href="http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/365963" rel="nofollow">http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/365963</a>I switched games a lot from 2-4 and 3-6 to hu to fullring to 6-max. That kinda annoyed me. I need to get my discipline back, which is part of the bet and moreover, part of my life the last year. GET THE EYE OF THE TIGER ONCE. I need to pick a game and stick to it and grind it out and set goals. Not goals as in terms of i want to make 50k this month, cause I think those goals are retarded and work against playing ur A-game. Im seriously considering to go back to 1$-2$ NL and just grind out 50k hands. I'll make a boatload of money there anyway and it's good for the discipline. Another advantage is, that I have some room to move up, which will improve the chances of me winning the bet. If I can move up two levels, there is so much troom. And I could do shit like not play HU up until I played 100k hands 3-6. I probably will fail that cause I love playing hu and I feel it's my strongest game.I'll keep u guys posted about what Im gonna do and about any goals. I also need to get my pokertracker back up so I can finally keep track again of raw results and so that I can manage my goals better. I need to make money!!Side-betsMy bet is going pretty well so far and I don't expect to get a lot more action on it. Enough motivation I hope and if I fail i'm just stupid

. A friend of mine has a very interesting bet in Vegas. Him and Good2Cu were talking at a table in Bellagio about prop bets. One guy said he could live in Bellagio for a month. Not leave the hotel etc. I think that's ridiculously easy cause you have everything at your disposal. I think I could go 3 months in bellagio easily. Fuck, I could probably do it without sleep. Anyways, Jay one upped the guy saying he could stay in a bathroom for 30 days. The rest was like no way obviously and they actually put money on it. Here is a video report cardplayer made about the bet, talking to Jay. He is a stand up guy and one of my favorite people in Vegas. I really hope he makes it and I'm confident he will. Take it down Jay <img src="http://my.pokernews.com/i/smiles/laugh3.gif" alt="Laugh" />.<a href="http://www.cardplayer.com/tv/29893" rel="nofollow">http://www.cardplayer.com/tv/29893</a>Another small news fact is that our 'friend' (we all think he is an asshole, but we treat him nicely cause he is very sensitive) Rekrul is gonna be playing in the prestigious NBC Heads up event. He got invited because he won a bracelet in the HU tournament at last years WSOP edition. It's really cool and to be honest I think he is a top 5 favorite in that event. Half of the people kinda suck anyway and Dan is pretty experienced live. Good luck !For those of you who enjoyed the darth vader clips, I found something hilarious. It's a pretty long one but a must see. They implemented voice clips from the original Darth Vader voice (Mr. James Earl Jones) from other movies he played in and dubbed them over scenes from Star Wars. I was almost rolling on the ground so enjoy.<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6A0rwG39Jzk&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6A0rwG39Jzk&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>See ya next time. Tomorrow im gonna try and work out and see if I can put myself to actually go again.Ciao.
