Im goin deep in the million only 250 people left and im in 66th position if anyone wants to rail my table my id is KrownKickin, times like these make u think of what u would do with all the money if you won but i know i need to focus and take this down, result later,

good luck me

This is graph for last two weeks, my last downswing was greatly contributed to me taking a shot at 200NL and only playing less than 100 hands and losing two flips for 2 quick buyins, o well i guess ill stick to 100NL for a lil while longer

Played a 2 hour session yesterday afternoon made 4 buyins, and was satisfied for the day so I decided not to play any tournaments and had some people over to kickback with instead. I really need to stop drinking so much when im already a little stupid from smoking beforehand. Sigh, o well maybe next time. I also wanted to ask how do u post your graphs from holdem manager to these blogs because its just not working right. I already posted a thread asking but apparently no one who saw it knows or just doesnt care enough to help me out.

52k chips at 350/700 in this 3 rebuy donkament right now, gl me

Well 2nd place in a 30$ freezeout is very rewarding nonetheless, but i wish i could have taken it down. It was one of the late night $30 20k garaunteed soft as hell tournaments i always do well in. 9 handed i came to the final table around 3rd-4th in chips with 350k(2.3 million on the table) blinds 3.5k/7k. I ran the table like anyone who tries to win tournaments should and we got 3 handed finally after i had a chance to bust people 3 different times in allin flips preflop, losing all of them of course.

I had consistently chipped up with few showdows and had 800k to start 3 way action at 20k/40k. Then somehow the other chipleader who had 900k gets dealt kings against my queens. Action went i raise button to ~95k he makes it 320k i pray and ship the 800 and when he flips over the kings im disgusted because the little 400k third party get to sit there and watch one of us get crippled. Then boom flop comes Kxx all clubs i have Q of clubs turn club(fistpump) i fade the river pairing. couple hands later im heads up with 1.9 million to 400k. Long story short he declines a deal and gets me good in this sequence of allins 107<JJ for his 9bbs AQ<QQ 55<88 and finally A10<JJ for my last 10bbs. So sick he wins all of them. O well 3k in the bank makes it feel better.

So I drove over to best buy this morning and picked up an iphone which i kinda had planned to be my replacement for my current p.o.s. att flip phone. Its nice, im not like completely obsessive over new **** i buy like some people, i just like that it looks nice and will play my music. Oh I also tried 9 tabling 100NL but ive determined im probably never going to be able to play more than 6 tables of 6max well enough to be worth the extra money. Played hour or so of 9 tables then switched back to 6 for a little bit and made a buyin in all.

My roomate, some friends, and I are gonna go down to this festival where he claims its insanely easy to pick up babes. I dont know if anyone is familiar with the babe to ugly chick ratio in Arizona but its insanely high. If i had to guess back in michigan where im originally from it was about 1 babe to 15 other girls, In arizona its like 1 to 2 not even joking. I swear its the children of rich guy and trophy wife capital of the world. I'm sure as hell not complaining

Kind of a lazy day today played a 5 and 11 rebuy and bubbled both in cooler spots where i had the worst of it both times, JJ <QQ bvb for 80bb pot was tough, and AK<1010 both hands in late position for about 50bb pot. Also played a 3 hour 6 tabling session of 100NL made 4 buyins over 750 hands. Most of my tables were very soft so I didnt have much of a problem or have any hands worth mentioning.


I Also watched the new episode of HSP which was pretty boring imo except patrik's good call vs phil. The hand with durrrr vs howard just proves howard is retarded and should stick to making multi million dollar poker sites and play golf from now on. How do u not break your fingers from shoving those chips in with AKs versus durrrr only 150k deep. I dont get it he has a reputation for a reason and even if theres only a slim chance hes 3/5 betting light, his value range is so narrow based on card removal since u have AK blockers to the 2 hands that have u in bad shape, that u must get it in pre. I mean QQ and JJ are a little different and might be folds since u dont have that little extra card removal effect, sigh what do I know Im only a 100nl player(so far). And I wish I was a thousand million percent sure on anything in my life as much as antonio was about that 50k lolz.

when the flop came i was like **** someone has a flush, but then i realized wow someone has to have trip Qs here, well the caller had trip Qs

So about a week ago me and a couple friends (all except one under 21) were just chillin on my back patio which is a first floor unit and we had been drinking etc etc and 2 of the guys got in a shouting match that ended in a couple fists being thrown and tackling of the person who was causing the problem. Wellll the thing is when a fight breaks out at 2 in the morning on a tuesday night in an apartment complex someone is bound to hear it. So sure enough 3 police officers just showed up looking over the 4 foot high wall on my patio looking at all the empty beer cans and 40 bottles and our stunned faces.

They just said whats goin on here guys, we got a complaint from one of your neighbors. We were like ummmmmm nothin really happened and the person causing trouble isnt here anymore. They were like ok well we gotta look inside to see if anyone is hurt in there. My roomate while they were talking to 3 of us outside casually walks inside and hides my bong and grinder in the fridge which thankfully had room because i took the middle rack out to fit more 30 packs in it for a party a couple weeks back.

So the cop strolls through and a minute later walks back out without saying a word about any of the empty beer cans etc nor the faint smell of weed, and all the cops go back to their cars with a casual farewell. WTF, i mean do i run good or what????

I wanted to start my first blog as a quick intro to me as a person and poker player so everyone can get a sense where im at and from point of view im making all my decisions and opinions about poker and life in general. I promise future blog posts will be much more interesting/funny/entertaining since my life lately has been filled with more than a couple of interesting scenarios.

I'm 19, live in Tempe, Arizona and am not currently in school of any kind. This last part is probably the most embarrassing part of my life and what makes me think of myself sometimes as a lesser individual but not to a suicidal point for anyone who thinks I'm a cutter or whatever. Just upsets me when I think how I had a 3.8 GPA in high school took honors courses then my addictive personality made poker my vice and dragged me down to a 3.2 by graduation.

I started playing poker in my junior year of high school starting with those damn play money games that get you hooked. I probably wouldn't have gotten hooked if it wasn't for a classmate who was at the time one of the best mtt players online, but has since quit because he lost interest because his family is rich as hell anyway. He used to strut around school and brag how he won 5k the night before in a 50$ mtt and i was obviously jealous and wanted to get in on the kind of money he was making so I wanted to get good.

So I donked around in the play money games for about 6 months and finally started playing real money mtts when I turned 18 and got my first credit card. Playing all those nightly $3 tournaments and $4.40 180 man sit n gos got me into a real degenerative way of life in my first year of college subsequently resulting in my current goal which is to become one of the best tournament players while supporting myself with consistent cash game playing.

I moved to Arizona with my parents last May and stayed with them still in the same routine of playing the $10 and lower mtts and the ridiculously soft $4.40s barely making minimum wage going to community college. Then about 4 months ago when i finally made a real investment into training sites and Holdem Manager to put me over the top of being just a minimum wage player. Learned a lot from all the sites and put my new knowledge to tables and began earning a better rate to the point where i was averaging about 10 bucks an hour playing 6 tables at a time of tournaments and $4.40s.

Then my poker career took a boost when i started talking to a guy named Anthony which I met on a triple draw lowball table i happened to play one night. He taught me a lot at triple draw and I started playing the 25/50 cent triple draw lowball on pokerstars as my regular game. He was impressed how much I knew about holdem tournament strategy due to how many training vids ive seen.

So he gives me the AIM of one of his close friends Cal who has some good results in nlhe mtts and we also start talking strategy and we soon rail each other etc etc. So Cal goes deep in a $55 nightly mtt and I'm helping him with my point of view and boom somehow he wins the whole dam thing for 12k. He wanted to thank me for helping somehow so he says here's $300 go play with it this coming Sunday for all mtts you can.

That Sunday(February 15th, also my brother's birthday) was my crowning moment in poker so far when i luck boxed (not really) my way to a 7th place in the Sunday Warmup for 17k and change. So with this new found relative wealth I decided to move out of my parents and into my new apartment because i really just like to be lazy, party, and smoke some (enter your favorite nickname) on my $250 bong i bought myself in my time spent off the computer.

I also recently won 4k and change in a 11 rebuy tournament and am continuing to support myself with regular mtt cashes and sng success. Wow really long post time to wrap up. I think posting here with my results will keep me more honest about how much im making since i feel i will try harder when other people are judging me even tho I really dont care about others opinions about me just a subconscious sort of mentality i guess. the next one will be shorter.
