WEEEEEEEE

Just another ho hum day

Good times...

WOW...really??????

So this was my morning session...i didn't think it could get much worse this month, but i guess fulltilt still isn't done sticking it to me. This doesnt even show TWICE me flopping top 2 with AK on a AK7 and AK5 board, and TWICE the other dude having 77 and 55...bye bye $200 there. I'm taking a few days off of fulltilt nl hold em and switching to some onaha8 or back to jokerstars for a bit...until nex time

I run goooooooooooood LOL

A quick update as a spew more of my bankroll this wonderful july. For those of you who arent familar with the program "pokerev" it basically calculates what you've actually won (green line) compared to what you should have won if suckouts/luck weren't involved (red line). It doesnt take a genius to see that there is over a $1000 difference between my 2 lines...what it means is that i should be up about $500 this month instead of down $500 LOL. Variance is a bitch i guess. Oh well..i downloaded the program today just to confirm the fact that i am running like SHIT, and its not my play. I feel better seeing this disgusting graph, but, the bottom line is that i'm still stuck $500 so far in july. I'm not even asking to run "fair" i know that'll never happen...but how about just half as bad as i have been...i mean hell, at least id be even for the month not including rakeback.

2 saving graces in july. I just finished cashing my $300 mid year bonus from fulltilt (looks like thats gonna come in handy) and tomorrow i'm buying the garmin c550 gps system from the fulltilt store...i looked this bad boy up, and its pretty sick...they're seelling them for $350-$400, so even as i spew money, at least i'll get the gps system out of this month.

Worst beat off all time...literally

So i think i took literally the worst beat in the history of poker today playing 100nl. Folded to the button who makes it 3...im in BB with QQ so i mkae it 14...he calls...flop comes Q44 (decent)...so i check..he overbets like 50 of his last 60...so i just put him all in...he flips over AK...drawing dead right???? WRONG...turn is a 4...river...4...giving us both quad 4's...and he has an ACE kicker...nh sir...enjoy my money. This hand sums up my morning as i lost another 2 bills...good times.

BRING BACK JUNE!!!!!!!!

So i welcomed July with my worst day ever. Fun stuff!!!!!!!!!!! I literally couldn't hit anything. I must've had about 75 nut flush draws on the flop, and miss every single one of them!!! I took a few gross beats and set up hands along the way, but for the most part it was just a slow and steady losing session. I ran KK into AA for a stack...got set under set for another stack ran my AK into a nutcase donkeys AA all in pre flop for another stack...flopped a boat holding 77 on a 744 board...only for the donkey with JJ to river a jack and take another stack from me, and numerous other failures like me NEVER getting paid on a single set i hit all day. Oh well, it was a pretty disappointing day, and i'm kind of down in the dumps, but i'm not sweating it....tomorrow is a new day.

June Review

Yes i know i dont update this thing anymore, and ive come to a crossroads whether i will continue to update it or not. I really do not want to just post my monthly success/failure, but that appears all the blog is now. Anyway, ill discuss this at a later date. This was the month of June...my 1st as a "pro" poker player. (pro is used very loosely...i'm currently unemployed, so, this is my only means of income). It was a good month, especially considering i didnt even play poker for the 1st 8 days of the month. Im too lazy to get exact to the dollar, but according to pokertracker, i made approx $2000 this month, plus another $310 in rakeback for a grand total of $2310 this month. I was very lazy only knocking out 30k hands seeing as i couldve played a whole lot more during the day, but spent a lot of time on the golf course. Regardless, june was a solid month, and as you can tell by the graph, never really had a losing stretch of more then a day or 2, and they were small at that.

Looking into July, i'm probably going to up the number of 100nl tables i'm playing so instead of 6 50nl and 3 100nl, i'll probably goto something like 5 50nl and 4 100nl or 4 50nl and 5 100nl. i'm hoping to play at least 50k this month (which would be my most ever). I'll try to post at least once in the next week to update the situation of the blog, and whether or not im gonna keep it going, until then...
