Let's do this

Well, I moved in properly to my new place today.3 of us at our place at the moment,3 more to come in september but right now I am focusing on the poker now I am settled in. I have played a bit before my trip to benaccasim and things weren't going great but forget that, its a new start now, I am willing to change my game , willing work at it , do whatever it takes to start winning alot.

I know my talent lies in tournaments so for the moment I will be playing them, I have also got a nice board on my wall which I will be using to pin my day to day winnings/losses' which I think will give me a good indication of how I actually am faring at this game. So, I ll play a few mtts tonight, see how it goes.

one day I will win lol

One day I will win at poker...wasn't today though lol.

Well, I just finished the $55k, I never play it usually but when times are hard,I usually go back to that tourney and get a 1st , so I tried. But failed :(. I didn't have loads of chips post rebuy, maybe 12,000 but I worked them up to 25,000 by 2nd break. Then I had AK suited, riased it , the person to my left overbet all in and very short stack called, I decided it was a good spot to call. I earlier said to Gid that I am going to need to win one race to win this mtt lol. And he had QQ , despite 2 diamonds on flop giving me hope, the turn and river bricked, and i lost a 38,000 pot, I was left with 4,800 and bb at 800 I shoved my A-3 , bb had KK lol. And a A flopped. course a K rivered so yaknow. Another nice tease by stars, but hey whats new?

My Other 2 mtts I played solid, made a few resteals when times were had and my resteal with AJ ran into K10! for alot of chips in a $15k gtd close to the money, K flopped and I was gone. Then in the other, I had KK vs AA. I felt I could have actually folded this one, I was pretty much sold he had AA but thought fuck folding Ks in a $27 mtt. I know its maybe a bad attitude, but hey, less then 0.5% of players in the world could have got away from that hand, and I dwelled on it till my time bank ran out!

So unfortunately, no good news regarding poker. But I am not sad whatsoever which I think is a good thing, I mean I get up everyday to play this sick game, put in like 7 hours everyday, to either break even or lose a few hundred bucks and to keep playin well and not get down beat too much I think is a feat. It's a sick game, but I chose it, I think I have a gift at this game, maybe I am picking the wrong tournament, maybe variance is being a bitch.. But give it a little while, and I am certain I will get rewarded. (like my self affiliating talk ? :) ) Well, I think that sums up everything of late. I noticed negreanu has a nice stack in the main event of the wsop and I am rooting for him to win , so hopefully by next time i post hes still in.FORZA KIDPOKER.

Swings aint fun

Well, I been losing for a good while from tournaments lately, I had been playing a TAG game and it just wasn't working, cos I would lose the showdowns. So I thought yesteday, I thought f**k it, I am going to go to Titan and gamble some more :) and play there jackpot sngs.

I have been playing that but 6 wins in a row is so unlikely, I think its something like 280,000-1 but that is if everyone was equal....I am unluckier so its more like 500k-1 . nah just kiddin. I had several runs of top 2 , like 4 top 2s, but no runs of 1sts better then 2.

So I went and played some cash tonight and actually won some money for a change! I played nl $600 and must have made around $900. So I am sittin pretty happy now , before i go to bed.I said if I make alot this summer I'd go to Barcelona play EPT. If my BR is at a sound amount that is still the goal. But we'll see. Till next time.
