DOWN

Played a bit since last post. especially the birthday week on fultilt. Have hit a major downswing. Biggest ever. Just down to playing badly tho (thank god) :). I lost $70 last week and a little the week before. Hell of a lot for me really. Funny thing is it didnt bother me that much.
I really felt like my next post wud be a story of being broke.
Started playing a bit of heads-up again. really do enjoy it. I won $40 ina 10 min period this morning. Felt pretty good.

went horse racing yesterday and won as well so doing ok at the mo

Bankroll: $370

going A ok

Poker is up a bit. Played about 5 half hour sessions since last post and made bout $25 :)

Wish i was in vegas, Wud love to be able to afford a seat for main event. Been reading http://exsnowman.blogspot.com/ and he seems to be doing awesome, Played some really good hands. One hand i think was were he pushed q8 off at the cutoff when was reraised by bb who was short and bb folded. Still would of been a big chunk of his chips gone if guy calls. But guess thats the power of having chips in tourneys, People just wanting to stay alive and a push like that seems a good strong move. Good luck to him anyways :)

Bankroll: MOST TO DATE $410

Partying WAY too much

Been a busy last 3 weeks. Mum and Dad have been away for two weeks and are due back today after a days delay and it has been my birthday :) Had a real good time but have also been working pretty hard too. At work and doing jobs around the house. So havent been on my computer as much so therefore hav'nt played much poker.

The bits i have played have been pretty crap. deff am down a little bit.
I will be putin a few hours in tonight due to having a golf day tomorrow which starts at 1pm instead of getting up for work early. Maybe i shud think about hustling :) i aint very good but i know the people im going with arent either :)
On my birthday i thought i was gonna have the time to play a bit but turned out i didnt. I played about 6 orbits of 25c/50c and made 3 or so bbs :) When im playing well out of my comfort zone like that i am always looking through for the tightest table i can find. The big pot size tables i stay away from. I just know with my luck i would miss on the flop on these table and loose big. Least i know i can work the players out pretty fast on these tight tables without loosing my stack in the process

up down up down!!!!

Same old story reallyy. although this has a bit more of a fairytale ending LOL - Basically had been doing pretty shit my last two quick sessions which one table was playing 25nl table. was probably down $30 ish. basically card dead. and was trying to make moves which i cant really afford to make. Anyways my mate also been been on a bit of a cooler and asked if i want 50% action on him but in a bigger tourney. I did question it because he was on abit of tilt himself but i sent him $40 dollars and persuaded him to play 3 $24+2 sit and goes. He did and came a good 2nd in one. which gave us a win of $270 and net profit of $192. So has increased my bankroll by quite a bit.

UPDATE: had to save it, so am writing a day later. Today was another success Dan text me to say he was playing $22 PLO tourney and did i want 50%. I remeber he has had a few near misses with the PLO toruneys so said yeah. Text me a couple of hours later to tell me he had credited my account $63. He had come 4th. Not a bad bit of business on my part i feel :)

Went to another funeral yesterday afternoon (3rd in 7 months). it was dans auntie. went was well as funerals can go.

Might start playing sum $5 45 man sitngoes now. Might take me a couple of goes to get into it. Going thru a bit of a bad patch in the cash games at the mo

Bankroll: $403
My highest bankroll to date :)

Good mood

Right now i am in the best mood. The main reason for this im sure is the weather, I just LOVE the summer. Mind you, this is first time since being an adult where i havent been abroad :(
Another rason for this good mood is my bird just got her first teaching job as Art teacher at downham market in norfolk which is only 30 odd mins from where i live which is brill news. and just feel for me things could be on the up. Am only part time atm well in two jobs and am in the need for a break in ajob i would enjoy. Have applied for one with british gas which feel i would love. But if that dont pay off then im sure something is just round the corner. Just feel it!!!

Yet another reason for this good mood is poker - Have been making steady progress. Could of had a bit more profit if werent for some bad calls but hey ho!, also find myself with bit more extra time at the mo so am gonna try put few more sessions in plus try play a few long ones too. When i say long i mean 3 hours lol. Bet that is so short for a lot of players.
Mate dan is doin 10000 hands at 10/25 cent at the mo. think he will be over halfway now. Been doing well. I hope he does show good bankroll management this time!!!
