So I haven't blogged in a long while because I haven't played much poker since my downswing: -17k$ at 400nl, not sure how many hands. I'm pretty sure I'm playing terrible and just getting owned in a whole bunch of spots. I took a lot of time off and just spent it chilling with girls, going to wild water kingdom (i have some wild pictures and even a video of her dancing on a random pole but alas...I don't think posting her pics on an internet forum is right). If you ever come to toronto then maybe you'll get some sneak peaks.
I also went clubbing a lot at circa, probably 5 times in the last month. Met this wild group of girls who are up for anything. For example, one of my friends made out with two cousins in a span of 5minutes (they both have bfs lol). The 2nd one was the one he was chopping and she got mad at him...so mad that she slept with him the next day and many times after that. A lot of other random explicit events happened on the dance floor, but like muhweli, I'd rather leave the details to your imagination.
So after my downswing, bankroll was at 15k and I decided to join leggopoker. I watched all of aejones' vids and I now look at poker a different way. He's always thinking about hand ranges, and why people bet based on showdown value. I then had a nice 6k upswing the last few days. Fast forward to today: things were going well, was up a little bit, got sucked out on, tilted, sucked out more, more tilt = -5k day. I won't bother listen the hands because it's really not interesting nor important. Ah well, time to punish myself by dropping back to 200nl and grind. Sigh, at least one positive is that I now have about 200k hands at 400nl of experience.
I'm taking another small break from poker, going to rethink my game as well as make a video series on how to play a nitty 17/14 tag game. I'm basically going to teach ppl how to not spew and just play solid winning poker. There are some games filled with regs where you just have to play this style. In order to play laggier you have to be a good hand reader, otherwise you will find yourself in too many tough or marginal spots.
It's going to be a 4 part series:
1) position, preflop ranges in every situation, squeezing, stacking off ranges.
2) postflop basics: various equities, flop cbet textures, double/triple barreling. How to extract money from fish and regs.
3) making moves in 3b pots, squeezed pots, river bluffs.
4) reads, note taking, and timing tells
The vids will be released to selected lpers for trial and we'll see where it goes from there. I'm still confident in my game; I've logged a ton of hands (I average like 5-8k hands a day), made and spent a lot of money foolishly. It's now time for me to own up and get serious about this since it's my only source of income as of now.
I'm going to try to get these vids released before I go to hawaii in 8 days. Aloha! That's right, life is still good! I've got a date tomorrow with 2 girls, and this other one wants me to sleep over tonight, so a -5k day ain't nothing to a baller.

sick times, so you recommend me moving to Toronto, Ottawa or Montreal? and put me down for the list dude |

I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |
