how did it go so bad? On tuesday I had an exam. I smashed it. +1. Well I might have done one question wrong and didnt have time to change it when I looked back. The f**king bus was 20mins late which made me last for exam ffs. Annoying and defo put me on tilt or off balance for the start. Iv definately passed even if I did get it wrong so I came out of the exam flying for possibly the first time ever. It makes me want to smash the others in may b/c its a good feeling rather than well that wasnt so bad I might scrape the 40% in that...
I think I havent played a donkament for a while ill have a crack at £30 for a laugh and just 3/4bet everyone for fun. I get kk on25/50 and make it 525 ugt+1. 3 callers and a 3bet of 2k more from an old guy. smells like AA but I figure that the arab whos flatted has AJ/AT b/c he didnt want to call and didnt want to fold for 525 aka 10xBB. Stereotypically I find that most of the iraqis/iranians I play with are acehuggers so I defo put him on AJish. Anyway Im not folding KK pre in that spot so I ship and JJ calls lol. ppl just give me chips then I get called down by a gutshot which hits. I river 2pair w/ Q4 and he says Iv hit it. hit what? the 4? yes straight. LOLaments. then same doughnut calls me down with 88 on q6698 board. On river I think for ages before betting b/c i feel he had 77-JJ but bet/call which annoyed the flas outa me as I should have just mucked face up when river dropped for sickness/look like a cock when he has 1010. I bubble 8th for my money back. SWEET. 1k for 1st with ridicilous blinds. I move to a 1/1 cash table (dc was full) where good friend jimmy is sat.
Jimmy is quite the character, when I first started playing he was there every night either doing his brains on roulette but winning in cashgames. I was shocked to find out he was a lecturer of genetics at uni, he went in about 1hr a week lol. Anyway he has quite a temper and is really easy to rile which is awesome fun b/c hes harmless.
I start trying to get ppl to straddle and he starts to go clean off at me b/c im a idiot and ill just shove pre when theres loads of money in the pot from straddles. So im like thats it im winding him up. mission achieved by the next hand where im in BB w/ 24o see a free flop of 644 SB min bets, I min raise jimmy RR. I look at him pull a face and slam all chips in the pot befor its on him hes put his stack in with a flush draw. only 10x the pot. I slam my 4 down and he catches the river. LOL. Then I flop 2pair w/ k6h turn gives me BDFD and I get it all in vs 88. he ovb hits the off suit case 8. CHIPS. I re re straddle. SB is decent, well average but decent for the table. 2.5x so call with 910 A910 he bets half pot so I think hell reckon im steaming so I ship for 5x his raise. He says I know ud 3bet me with a bigger ace. I think to myself I wouldnt Id play it the same way as this hand b/c youll stack off with a6. he does stack off with a6 and river 6 lol.

Now the best hand of the year thus far. dan limps (a6 guy) I look down at 10 4o and make it 12. one caller. dan makes it 35 more. seems pretty stong. but is he strong enough to call this. 360. I dont care if he is strong enough his QQ is having it on a 9 10 4 flop BOOM! LOOL his head was spinning. It was beautiful.
the game breaks and I move to dc. there a new fish playing. he tries to steal a pot pre in doubleflop. err this isnt texas u muppet u cant shove measly 100BB stack in pre to win £10 thats in there u mug. anyway the pot turned from 10blind. 20blind. to me, I think hmm one time I wont pot it ill play sensibly as were all pretty deep and stupid bollocks behing me tries to squeeze LOL. everyone calls and its back to me. Well its not in my nature to take a flop (2flops) in this spot. I was going to pot it but if I do that then I commit emads stack which was about 900 at start of hand so I just set the muppet in for ~200 more into 300 pot, then I have positon and can ship if emad checks to me and its not terrible flops for me. the fish tanks for ages which confirms that he tried to squeeze and everyone calls. flops Jd6d4c and 8c4h3s. I have Qhigh diamond draw with Ac2c567. emad speaks first. All in. fucks sake. I have to hope my diamonds are live which is unlikely but as I can scoope both im in. turn gives me back door clubs on one but river bricks all my draw on both (Q flush would have been good) and I lose ~2.5kpot. Tueday night were meant to be my cash cow/ only lose 2/3 BI from now on. Instead ive done 2k and 1k on the last 2 SIGH. this fucked up my week as I wanted to go win it back. I made 400 on wed. 300 thurs. 400 fri and last night i didnt play cus I was online then went out.
That concludes my live conumdrum so far.
Online then. played about 12k hands @ 50NL. result -12BI. I have played pretty poorly and just went mad on one table in last session I played where I kept 4betting ridicilously loose players and the had the goods in cutoff vs button and button v sb situations. also found a few fish and they keen running ridic well vs me. so well below ai ev atm. but if you play bad u deserve to loose even if u are running bad. so I guess I deserve to be losing this month but if I cant start playing well consistently I dont know what im gonna do. before playing live a few nights Iv tried some donkaments online and they have been pretty frustating.

GG slav unlucky son. woulda been good to ship that.

Oh I also played a fish HU again on 200nl. he took ~ 550 off me last week and he was back on friday night. I lose AKs v JJ AIPF. then I flop a set v his AK and he obv hits BDF then quits me ~450 so hes had 1k off this month.
I thought fuck it then and deposited 1k and played 200nl.
lol at this. Id 3 bet him a few times so he was becoming frustrated. IDK why as he won every pot with 85o ect.

Then I run Ak into AA a twice and get flushed in a big pot so Im now losing ~2000 online this month

Anyway last night was good. My mate was on bar and kept giving me free drinks when I gave him 20 hed give me 2 10s back + shitload of bottles/shots so that was good. Some real fit girls out, one stunner was checking me out in corridor then my mate were dancing by her later on so that was jackpot, she seemed pretty interested but I didnt act upon it. weird i dont know why she was boss, guess id feel like a c**t for cheating. one mate kept sniffing girls hair and making a moustache with it without them noticing which was fucking hilarious. then he told a girl he wanted to f**k her in the ass. not so smooth. a few ppl were on meow which is a new craze for the cool kids. its basically mdma but legal b/c the chemical components slightly different and b/c its a new drug had been made illegal yet. but best quote of the night was 'man I was feeling that tune then the meow wore off and I could only dance like a spastic and was like shit im turning back into myself' hahah beej you legend.
to conclude the night we got home and had a smoke, first time iv smoked in 3-5 months honestly cant remember last time I did, just as weve skinned up paul's coming in the house and shouts down 2 random girls off the street and they come in LOL. then he makes some more inappropiate comments about blowjobs and they leave... gg paul ur smoothness has no end. (you have been reffered to as paul b/c I know u hate it and I hate you.)

I should do some coursework but I CBA right now I want to go stack some donks live, so I will go do that now. f**k the sunday comps as i will need to get up and do cw 2moro. OH GSOP's staring on ongame so ill probly bink on of those in the next 2weeks.
later
