Overdue Update

So recently, I have cooled off a little and find myself a bit unmotivated in playing the best poker, I guess it comes from the two big scores and large bankroll. So yesterday I cashed out down to $800 in my PS account, and i have about $530 in my FT account. I plan on spending some of the cashout on a digital camera and some other things to "treat" myself for the good play recently.

I made the decision to decrease my BR because I invested $70 in the 5r the other day and did not even make it out of the rebuy period. I was so tilted and realized that I am not ready to handle the higher stakes swings. So now i will concentrate on up to $10 FO's, the 3r's, and some $20 180s mixed in. As for full tilt, the daily double, and the 90 mans will be my main focus along with some double stacked $26 fo's.

October is bringing a PXF MTT challenge which will get me back in the swing of things and bring motivation. Somehow i was the 4th pick overall (i forgot about the competition until this morning). I think its 4 player teams, top 20 total scores count, and must have 5 per player, I think.

Here is a little parting gift, possibly the funniest youtube video ive seen.

Take it away Lloyd Banks....




WE ON FIRE!

So last night, first night having wireless in the new appt, I fired up 2 FTP 90 mans, the 6pm $5 rebuy, and a $20 180 man. I donked out of the two on FTP, wasnt really taking them seriously i think, i can't recall how i busted but w/e. I got close to the money in the 5r but overplayed 88 pf to an EP raisers QQ (I had him tagged as loose, so i figured there was a good chance he would fold preflop), and finally, DRUM ROLL PLEASE..........

My first $20 180 man i shipped it to Cleveland Ohio. Played solid poker, had some nice resteals, and the cards just fell my way. I flopped a str8 in a 4 way pot when raising 65s, won a race 44 > KQos when having 10bbs, then 1010 beat AK HU in a limp shoved pot by the villain. My second 4 figure score ever and 2nd this week! I'll be out of town this weekend, so no poker for me.

Let the Heater Continue

I haven't posted for a week or so and i figured with all my recent success, an update was needed for my fans. Thursday night, i was over at BCM's hanging out, watching football and the tribe game. I registered for the 8pm 3r, and 4:30am rolls around and I am out 5th for a cool $1,100. My biggest score yet, and first 4 figure score. I played very well, sucked out in one huge pot where I was on the phone, so i wasn't really paying much attention at that point in time. I did have to work at 9am the next day but whatever, it was worth it. I was in for $21 in the tournament and my Q4s beat AQ and KJ in the last hand of the rebuy hour to give me 12k in chips.

Yesterday (Sunday) I played in 4 MTT's and cashed in 2 of them. I played the 10 minute level 15k, the $5 6 max, 3r, and 17.5k on full tilt. I got deep in the 3r and 17.5k and ended up busting 177th and 25th respectively for a total of $130 in cashings. I made a HUGE mistake in the 3r when i was top 20 in chips with a 10x misclick. Meant to bet 3900, not 39000, and OBV the guy had a set of 4's and i was getting 47,000,000:1 to call his 600 chip reraise. fjidsajflkdja;lkfjdsaklgdsa

For the rest of the week, I doubt i will play much because my internet is still NOT hooked up (DIAGF Time Warner) and I am going to visit my girlfriend at Penn State this weekend, either leaving Thursday or Friday.

Ps. Awaiting bcm to email me the pics I took on his camera of my appt.
