Soooo... pretty epic TR

Posted 03-20-2009 at 06:42 AM by thac
Okay, so. What. The. ****.

I go to K (I'll call her K because I'm nice but I should say .. whore?)'s house earlier today to hang out and her cute friend Emily and hot 16yo sister are there. Life is amazing. I got home and was talking to PJo and my roommates about how life is cool, and K calls me and says PJo and I should come back to the bars in Toledo with her and Emily. So after the Michigan game (LOL **** YOU BEVILL), we get around and head there.

Arriving in Toledo 15 mins late, they're still not ready, and don't get ready til about midnight. I stop at Brooke's and see Chloe for like an hour, and then get dinner and a beer for PJo and they say they're ready finally. We drive there and are chillin and everything's awesome. They show us their corsets and their bras and whatnot and we're on cloud nine. It's so sweet and we're basically thinking we're getting laid tonight. I'm the designated driver so I take E's BMW and drive it to the bar.

We roll out to this Ryno bar that is the exact opposite of the Rhino in Vegas... a ****ing hole in the wall piece of **** bar with 30 people, 26 guys and 2 other girls besides K and E. They flirt with like everyone and start making out with each other and we're like, whatevs, we got a hotel room with them tonight and they're all ours. Oh boy were they not.

After the bars closed down, the night began. We go to this after-party thing and there's no one there so we go to this ripped Air Force dude's house and we're real glad he's not an enemy cause dude is BIG. Like 6'5, 260 and cut like crazy. There are probably 10 of the sleazeball guys, three other girls and K, E and me and PJo. The three other girls bounce and K and E start making out and being sluts.

We just chill for a while and like 4am rolls around and the people at the house were saying we all had to leave because they had to lift at like 9am (lol). So K and E go to the bathroom and this skinny-ass pale nerd tells us we need to get the **** out. We are like "are you serious? the girls are in the bathroom, just wait like 45 seconds" and the dude starts pushing me tryin to get me out the door, I tell him to just hold the **** on and he punches me in the stomach and the Air Force dude tells us to get outside.. we gladly oblige cause dude is ****in huge.

So I have E's keys to her car and we're standing outside wondering what the **** to do, and she calls me and says get back up to the apartment with her keys and in the background I hear one of the dudes say "those mother****ers can WALK to their car". I tell PJo we're going. We start to drive off in E's car... not knowing where we're going. We know we turned a lot of times, but other than that we have no idea. Here's a visual of where we stopped and called Brad (bknollenberg) because we were lost and needed directions compared to where my Z was:



So Brad decides he needs a cigarette and I decide **** him I'm driving. I eventually find the road I need and remember some of the landmarks. I get to that diagonal road close to where my car is and I pass a cop going 10 over the speed limit. He doesn't turn around.. whew. I get to the road before we turn to get to my car and pass another cop... he stops us. We get turned onto the road where my car is -- I can physically see my car -- and we do the whole "getting pulled over" thing.

I can see so many things going wrong.. they reported the car stolen, the cop wonders why we have the car, the lack of an insurance card ****s us over, the Air Force dudes are at K's house just waiting for us to pull up.. the possibilities were endless. So I tell the cop I'm taking E's car back to K's house because she's passed out drunk at some dude's party and I need to get back to my car. He says he just gave my Z a warning because I parked illegally and asked if I know the speed limit and all that bull****, I tell him no, and he gives me a warning. Yay, two warnings in one night, ship that!

So I get back to K's driveway, put her keys on the seat and drive away in the Z. It's 6am and I'm wired and was scared for our lives, and I am pretty sure I've never had so much fun.

I PJo.

Swing it baby

Posted 03-20-2009 at 05:45 AM by plzchazemynutzz
Last 3 days were pretty brutal. The 17th was a 3.5k loss which cancelled my winnings for the month, making me feel miserable, again, then made a great comeback the next 2 days. The site is quite fishy these days, guess that also helped to the upswing, not only my awesome poker abilities..

I'm also in the process of hiring a coach, talked to some last month, they were all available but unfortunately didn't took the last step, I kept lying to myself maybe I didn't need one. So this is my objective for the next month. Last week I purchased a 50k video database review from a coaching site, and found it very helpful, was able to identify a handful of leaks, which is always a good thing.

I hope I'll also be able to log 20k more hands till the end of the month, so I can reach 60k. To be noted that I'm not able to play on week-ends, the most fishy days of the month, as my girl is from another city and we spend those together.. Oh well, can't really complain with week days either, don't know why but it seems the recession doesn't affect the fish.

Below the graph with the last 3 days swing, lots under ev ofc, for the month I'm at +10k, bonuses included, not a great winning rate, but that's why I'm getting a coach for. Was also thinking about having sweat sessions with other players at my stakes (400-600NL) over mikogo and skpe or maybe exchange recorded videos of our sessions. Please let me know if any of you is interested in this.

Cheers.

new weeks challenge

Posted 03-20-2009 at 01:35 AM by Everytime
Alright i think im ready to start a new week of goals to accomplish. Everyone seems to plan everything by the month and i just cant be motiavted for that long yet. So i will just try to accomplish things by the week. The last week i did this went alright, but not great. Then after i took 4 days off from playing and just kind of had an extended st. patricks day celebration and was lazy and drunk most of the time. Now its time for a new "challenge" so i will try to take these down.

- 15k hands of poker
- Run 30 miles this week
- join a gym
- post five hand histories on a training site ( never posted a hand, only commented )
- drink 4 or less nergy drinks and no other caffeine
- start to pay off my school loans ( easy to forget )
- have a coaching sweat session ( wasnt in mood for poker the past few days so hopefully i can get back on the train)

Not gonna put up any monetary goals as they have no place in goal setting for a poker player. Of course i would be satisfied with a certain amount, but i will just hope to play well and not tilt and let the rest take care of itself.

No trip till after vegas at least.

Posted 03-19-2009 at 11:53 PM by Timoshi
Basically i was making plans for the trip away during allergy season. which is a month away i called the family friend to see if i could stay at her condo in Thailand in April and apparently a doctor is currently living in it and is moving out in august. So basically i would have to pay rent for a month somewhere else which i didn't factor in. Also i had a downswing in feb so i basically i am GGed so i can't go endless i really wanna spend 2-3k which i don't want to right now since vegas will cost me probably 2k+ also. Putting traveling at like 4-5k for the next few months which is just too much for me right now because i just realized i need to pay taxes on april 15th also. So anyways in short i feel broke and i prob wont be going till after august or early next year. Going on 1 months notice was prob dumb anyways cuz there is a lot to schedule like i would want to have a 30" monitor there. And my laptop isn't coming for 5 more weeks because ftp sucks balls and is taking so much time.

Anyways this post is emo and will continue to be, this year has been 100 times ****tier than last year for me i went +10k in the first 2 weeks then since then have been slowly spewing since. I am barely + for the year at this point at least i still own all of my RB! I guess summary is i hate poker right now and i really need to turn things around. Going back to school is not a option.

Hrm positive things that been going on in my life is that i went to the gym, i am still doing really well at hu but it is really slow making $ playing 100nl. I got owned at hu vs tc yesterday for the 3rd time and thats positive because this also means the sun will rise tomorrow (who knows what would happen to the universe if i won, time and space might just end). And smooties are still awesome. Anyways hopefully i run good so i can not worry about $ anymore and travel/ get a decent place to live and invite ppl to cali.

Zero to 1,000,000 Day 36

Posted 03-19-2009 at 06:46 PM by teamgreen
Current Level: 3/6

+2600

**** ya, finally some hands going my way. On my way to 5/10 tomorrow. Gonna run good there and stay, thats the plan. Also looked over some hands from yesterday and made some plays that were bad, so slowly fixing the leaks I think. I have a bad habit of not reviewing my hands when I win, gonna really try and fix that, to make sure I check the percentages, cuz I'm still really bad at them.

start: +9419
end: +12019

The Madness Begins!!

Posted 03-19-2009 at 11:43 AM by ejay
Today is the start of one of the best sports events on the calendar. After not watching much hoops this year the last week or so i have been watching a ton from high school to the NBA. My former high school team lost in the quarters and the CIS (Canadian college basketball) held their annual 8 team tournament this past weekend which had some really good and close games. One of the guys, Chris Dyck, that i played against in high school (we lost in the finals to them actually) was one of the tournaments best players and his team ended up in second place. It was nice to see someone i competed against, whiling holding my own, being mentioned as one of the best players in the country. Like everyone else i have studied the brackets carefully and im sure that i have the perfect bracket. This year i feel weird because i didn’t really watch much college hoops, so all my gambling is because im a degenerate and not because i feel like i know what im talking about. I guess that makes me like 99.9999% of the people out there who have no idea who most of these players or teams are but still join pools all across North America.
This tournament is so fun to watch because there is always sick games and upsets. The emotion is also unreal and there is always some great stories that you get to know throughout the tournament. This is usually enough but this year im also involved in a 2+2 ssnl pool and also some other pools that are offered on the various websites. I have also made a few ‘futures’ wagers which i hope will make the games even more exciting to watch. I have a wager on Louisville to win at +650, Louisville to win their bracket at +150, Villanova to last longest of all the 3 or 4 seeds at like +525, Memphis to win their bracket at +225. I am liable to deposit more money and make more bets because im a degenerate. I would be pretty happy to just break even because its not so much about money, its just making the games more fun to watch. I also have a day 1 parlay of Butler +1.5, Maryland +1.5, Michigan on the moneyline and Western Kentucky +4.5 that pays like 20-1, so keep your fingers crossed.
