October Month Review

So October has finished and I think its the month that has opened my eyes, since starting this blogging caper earlier in the year i have proved that i am a winning player but with just extremely bad discipline, i would build up a roll to the $700-$1000 region and then Drunk/Tilt a huge chunk of it and have to rebuild.

earlier this month i went one better, I lost my whole roll roughly $700 after tilting and playing heads-up - since then i have not touched my account drunk and touch wood never will again. when i look at my results I have to realise that this is serious business, i can make some decent money and with 3 kids and 1 on the way I need to man up and treat the game with respect.

anyways onto my results, i have not included my drunken nights figures basically i want to look at what i have achieved and use this as my motivation for future months.. i know i still ower $250 to my dad for the stake and that will be paid as and when.

here is my graph


this is made up of

$50NL heads up - 3011 hands, 6.05BB/100, + $185.10
$25NL 6 Max - 32 hands, 26.31BB/100, + $4.21
$25NL FR with antes - 211 hands, 20.37BB/100, +$21.38
$25NL FR - 14,711 hands, 7.31BB/100, +$537.57

poker profit - $745.31
Rakeback - $137.62

October Total - $882.93

November goals is basically the same! I have no intentions of moving up and will withdraw all profits as I have debts which I would rather clear than have money sitting in a poker account...long term once i'm debt free I can try and move up the levels

the only difference i would like is to get some decent MTT results, I have 2 $5000 freerolls through my rakeback provider and im in the FTOPS warm-up on Sunday.... only 50k players to get through for a $25k score lol!

anyway thanks for reading, bankroll is $1000.

*edit just lost about $50 heads up and had to withdraw $50 to cover buying summit.... bankroll now $910
*super edit i rock like rock on x factor - bankroll bank over $1k

Octobers Final Stretch

the month is drawing close and im in the final stretch, have played a fair bit since Wednesday but basically have broke even, howvever rakeback is probably about $15 from these hands so im definitely due to hit $1000 by tomorro's payment.

i probably wont play at all this weekend as Football Manager 2010 is out, a sick game which when i get into takes up a load of my time, i am know to run games with a lower league club from the conference and try to take them up into Europe over games spanning 20-30 seasons.... this years version has leagues down to County Level so i might even play as one of my old clubs Worthing United or Lancing...

I'm Better Than Ivey & Durrrrr

Drunk Tourney part III

so the plan as usual was for me and my mate mug to donk around in a few micro buyin MTT's and have a few drinks... the tourneys of choice were a pitiful $1 mtt with 800+ runners and a $2 deepstack again with 800 plus runners. me being a high roller i also registered for a $6 Super Turbo knockout with 1000 runners.

the night was a non event.... obviously the super turbo busted first, after taking 3 heads for $3 in bountuies i eventually exited in the low 200's when a button steal with K7 ran into KQ.. i ran ok in the other two tourneys before i possibly played aces as bad as they can be played in the $1 donkfest... i limped in earl position hoping for a raise which never came, the flop came Kxx and i led for half the pot, the turn brought a jack so i blasted all in and got called off course by King Jack.

in the $2 tourney i was about 30th but there was still 200+ runners, with min cashes all the way to the top 20 i could not be bothered to play another 2-3 hours so i just blasted all in until i got eliminated - its no wondner my sharkscope is a disgrace, i give up on these so easily!!

Mug made a cash in this tourney, not sure where he came but he made $2.86 profit and was up for a least an hour later than me!



Cash play was a mix of funny, terrible with a few suckouts for good measure.

i played a decent 800 hand session of $25nl and lost about $25, running that amount below expectation, there were some serious muggings like AA > JK but i played some hands terribly - i will highlight two embarsasments at the end.
Later on i went bum hunting at $50 nl heads up and won about $60 to save the day but i got extremly lucky like hitting trips with A3 against 1010 all in on a 935 board.



these hands are a joke, im embarassed looking at them!

Weekend Review

i had planned to log a monster session of hands over the weekend, Friday night saw a rakeback payment send me over $800 and then i put in a decent session over a few hundred hands to put me upto $850, i then lost that heads up.. stopped had a few drinks and lost my $120 partypoker account playing blackjack which has been a long standing vice for me (thank fuck full tilt has no casino!)

anyway woke up Saturday pissed off and vowed to win it back, i played numerous small sessions totalling 3k hands which is a lot for me and i managed to end up a decent amount up with a decent $30 rakeback or so to come just for the weekend. graph and stats from 25nl below, somehow i have messed up my graph/stats from heads up but i lost about $60

as normal most of the winnings comes from $25nl, my heads up never got going and numerous times i got hit and run buy the short-stackers i look for - it has to be expected though, the Short Stack strtegy is all about doubling up and leaving, buying back in on a different table with the profit safely banked.

not a lot else done this weekend, played both days of football for once, a 3-0 win Saturday saw my 4th goal in 5 appearances with two from the bench... Sunday saw a 4-2win as well.

tonight im planning on a few drinks and im watching the wrestling... sad i know but it is my guilty pleasure... alongside this i will play a couple of tourneys and hopefully make a decent profit - ill report back tomorrow.




Bankroll a healthy $877

Lol at Previous Post

haha yes a little drunk last night, resulting in the demise of my drunk poker account i'm a tad annoyed at the loss but I think it was fully expected!

Full Tilt was a mixed bag, my biggest ever hand total for the day with 1.7k hands at 25nl for a $100 profit, unfortunatly i played 300 hands at 50nlHU and lost over a $100 before I realised I should stop and have a drink or summit!

went on this morning and won a bit back so my bankroll is over $800 again.

Plan for tonight is a big session at $25nl maybe try and hit 2k hands again, will post tomotto with my results.

Blackjack = Rigged

Won $50ish on Full Tilt then lost my $120 on Party Poker playing fucking blackjack.. every fucking time dealer shows 13 14 and hits 21 - Rigged

who ever thought a drunk poker account was a good idea!
