OK, so I’m going to post the whole thing when I get home, and I’ll blog about the PCA too, but for now, just thought I’d let you all know that I’m 3/10 on the final table of the £1k Main Event, eagerly awaiting the start.
Also, Jake Cody is 6/24 in EPT Deauville, with E840K for the win….. Our night out is going to be ridiculous.
Wish us both luck!
SO a pretty odd title for a blog il give you that!
however its a reasonably good synonym for y form on the poker tables lately lol
been grinding pretty hard of late in my new “prosperous living” policy” – this policy basically involves
1) Drinking WAY WAY less and going out once/twice a week MAXIMUM
2) Eating healthier
3) Having a consistent sleep pattern
4) making SHITLOADS of money
So far mixed results – my sleeping pattern is improved altho i now sleep 6am – 2/4pm and live all night which is a bit shit, im eating a bit healthier bought some fruit and have only had 2 takeaways this year! NOT BEEN OUT ONCE this year wiiiiiiiiii so thts going to plan, and finally number 4….
played a lil over 20,500 hands so far this month and here is a link to the grpah so far – the thick green line is ACTUAL profit and the thin green line is all-in EV representing how i’ve been running in all-in pots
you can probably see where the clintons trousers metaphor comes in! as you can see 14,000 hands in was looking like I might be on to kick start the year with a $10k month, but hands 15,000-20.000 seem to have ruined that expectation for the time being! this has been a pretty upsetting downswing but luckily it happened so fast that I barely noticed it lol and following 6 straight loosing sessions totaling nearly $5,000 i have since returned to the land of $0.50/$1 and have since regained about $1100 of it.
its kinda tough but HU plo is notoriously high varience lol and swings such as this are just gonna happen – and after all as bad for business as clinton’s trouser antics were – HE HAD A TON OF FUN! probably il stay off the cigars though!
other news aside i have been railing tom mac, jamie, jake and rob out in the bahamas, dunno if i mentioned this in my last blog but rob’s report of his PCA main event antics are hilarious. following a open from a wide opener, and a 3bet from someone young, a 4bet from a scandi and a 5bet from another young agro internet kid Rob looks down at 94offsuit and fins a 6bet shove !!!! such an AWESOME MOVE – however its awesomeness is eclipsed by the scandi having KK and failing to believe rob has AA lol – a scandi 4bets and somehow has KK – rob ran baaaaad lol so ye that was pretty cool i know of VERY few people in the world who cold 6bet 94offsuit in a $10k event but rob is definatly one of them!
I’ll let Jamie report his Bahamas news in person but expect some very sick inexcusable brags lol
ALSO wp to ash who had a nice score in a $50 freezeout on pstars the other night taking the whole tourney down WP WP sir
NO LIVE POKER HAS BEEN PLAYED THANK THE LORD
nostra terra are performing decently and sitting on a nice steady 1.2p (i bought at 1.14 so profit can be made!!)
AND FINALLY my new monitor is beyond awesome its incredible !
glgl everyone i will catch you all soon i hope!
lilD
happy new year everyone!
Was awesome to see everyone on boxing day for the £5 I had a lot of fun…would have liked to have won that but o well sigh wpwp everyone all the same!
so i have done literally NOTHING for the past few weeks since my mega grind period (over 10k hands of .25/.50 huPLO in a week!), so i went out and got drunk a bit, took some time off over christmas and here i am now fresh still recovering from eating too much and drinking FAR FAR too much red wine ! Back to the grind it is!
First a few comedy tales of run bads for you all!
this is horrific is this one! so I go down to DTD for the monte carlo i dnot play the £1k or even any of the sideys cba rail middy and brent who go deep ish middy busts 40-something AK into AA ul ul, then Brent finishes on the ACTUAL BUBBLE 28/with 27 paid A7 vs A4 when he hits not one but TWO fours mega sigh….ul BH ul…
playing some 2/2 PLO find myself loosing a bit, rebuy for dbl stack £400 now im in the game for £1k and grind and grind away until i am sat like £1.4k ish deep – when they annouce last 3 hands – at this point im delighted because im out of the hole + have some profit….untill nick hicks (who is pissed never plays PLO and potting everhand and sat about 2k deep) pots from the c/off and i peel the BB with A Qs Js 9 – only to find myself on a Ks 10s 8 baord lol – we obv get the whole stack in vs AJ64 with the A64 spades….board rolls out K 6 and the dealer announces tht AQ high wins and starts moving me the money until nick goriously announces he has a 6 and scoops the whole £3k….FUCK MY LIFE…to make things worse rob is sat next to me asking me if i need a tray for “all my chips” and then i get gunned doing 100mph on the motorway and that looks like GG drivers liscence – a distinctly poor 12 hours of my life LOL
so more live poker is what i need lol – still down at gala following NAPOLEONS horror run doing ok but MAN ALIVE that game is so tilting, i got chatting one night to the guy there wheni was pretty drunk and said that if they put me in charge of the game for 2weeks and put 30% extra on the rake…he sed i cud try but then i dont rele wanna get involved i dont think might annoy Faz…i dunno i might not be able to anyway but I know wat needs to be done to sort it thats for sure! + with my contacts i reckon i could make an AMAZING GAME there, might see if they’ll let me do it on Tuesdays and Wednesdays lol…so i think im a bit down from live pokers last 2 weeks mainly from that stupid dealers choice game where i was comfortably better than everyone else but consisted to run like monkey shit! the only hand i won of any interest was a badugi hand vs my very good friend chris walker where I open thinking we’re playing omaha hi/lo and after trying to buy my way out of my mistake i end up making the effective nuts and gg’d chris in the process. sorry chris shame as he waas the only other member of the table that made the game remotley bearable!! then playing PLO i open 789J dbl and get 3bet by some deep stacked donkey – im deep aswel so elect to min 4bet – my reasons behind this were if he has AAxx he pots back and i can happily peel the 5bet 400bb deep, + he is now going to peel most of his QQxx KKxx and rundown hands, meaning i can legitimatly rep aces +/or shaft him if i hit the flop hard….he peels…flop rolls off JJ7 which was a rather nice flop for me, i lead he shoves i call he has KK88 turns a K gg life and another £800 horror beat from 2009 live poker! i love life.
so tht was me done for live poker for the year LOL so back to the online grind, after my hard work iv now moved up to 1/2 again and put some seious volume in – I would love to be able to put some graphs up (so u can lol ayt the swingyness!!) but firstly i cant open holdem manager atm for whatever reason lol and if i did they wudnt let me upload on here!!! o well, unnecessary brag anyway probs! played roughly 8,500 hands this week on ftp and about 2k on cake. cake poker i both love and hate, firstly i LOVE it cos i won loads of money, i hate it because they take 45years to let you withdraw monies and i hate it because despite spinning the remaining 1k in the account up to about 2.8k we now have about zero dollars on cake….sigh. full tilt has been kind to me lately, lildavefish is finnally recognized as a winning PLO layer – they onyl recently started tracking it just as i came into a 4k downswing nice life full tilt. played about 8,500 hands as ai said which is kinda heavy going HU and its been very gd up about 16buyins which i can live with – both today and yesterday saw me hit $1600 holes before getting out! yesterday i turned it around and managed to win $400! and today im currently taking a break about $8 up lol kinda a wasted afternoon LOL 1,140 hands later – that’s $0.007 per hand profit and about $2 an hour – but hey least im not gonna pay tax on it!
May aswel post some super cool hands as there have been loads, firstly will start with the toughest spot iv faced this week – playing ShipItToPapa who is a reg that iv tussled with successfully in the past, however this hand we get ridiculously deep and horribly outplayed/coolered who knows which one, i end up folding mainly cos im a nit who didnt wanna get 400bb’s in vs a reg drawing dead cos you look and feel like a bit of a tool!
