This and that..

Plodding along atm. Played a little poker now (bout7 hours this week) and have broken about even. maybe a lttile down. Have just got my money back from the sit and go challenge. Last friday night was bored and didnt go out and didnt go out the night before so for a treat to myself I deposited another $50 into my fulltilt account. I fired up about 5 tourneys with it but thinking now i perhaps should of fired up some sit n goes instead. Got one really good value tourny $25000 guarentee for 24$ buyin. actually probably wrong here. it was $5000 for first, anyways it was a good value tourney. Thought i played well in all but didnt cash in any:( all tourneys i played had high volume of players and really just got bummed a few times with silly play. other than that i have been playing just the $4nl cash which i am just pissing about with really. Basically with this level if you raise the standard 3 blinds expect to get called with j3 offsuit. I lost a few buyins practically withpretty bad beats. I guess the thinking at this level is 'fuck it, why not CALL' .
Am gonna play alot more sit and goes next coming weeks so next blog entry should show bit of change in the right direction:)

I reckon on the whole i do quite well with my small bankroll. It is boring to read quite often. but do think something will click soon and i will get a few wins in a row.

Also am shitting myself today. Tonights the night Arsenal play united i first leg semi final. Just feel man u are over there dizzy spell and look alot fresher. AM a big arsenal fan but just feel we will get spanked tonight. Am usually pretty bad with my predictions but will still go for a 3-0 man u score line tonight. I dont want Shearer to succeed niether not much reasoning behind that other than newcastle fans generally live in a dream land. Shearer isnt even a qualified manager! He just copies everything hansen says and just always points out the obvious on match of the day which really annoys me aswell. So yeah my predictions to go down - Middlesborough,Newcastle and Hull. Like i say my predictions are wank usually.


Bankroll $220 ish

up and down....again!

I might as well copy and paste this line because its always the same - Haven't played as much as i would of liked to of done :)
I went out friday night and came home and played for about an hour and lost stupid money like $30 playing 20nl. YES was very drunk lol. I had nothing to do at the weekend. EVERYONE i know was busy so started to play 4nl and actually really enjoyed it. Think it was one of my longest sessions ever. I think i enjoyed it because of the stake. Felt if i played ok and lost the buyin it wasn't gonna piss me off that much. Was playing 3 tables and finished up on all of them. Just enough to get the money back had lost night before.
Previous to the weekend just gone i have been playing for like half hour periods and being a couple of dollars up and feeling like i should logg off coz im might lose this profit i have lol.

Oh yea, big news is i read a story on a poker news site that a guy who is a sit and go expert turned $100 into $10,000 in 14 days playing sit and go's upto the value of only $16. I read first of all he was playing 50 a time. 50 and winning!!! So my mate said he could do something like this but on a smaller scale. Still having a $100 but turning it into $1000 in two weeks. I put up the 100 and said i only want double the money for the stake. kind i know. he started off and was breaking even . Then after a daynhalf of doing this he gets bored and plays plo 25/50c instead. This pissed me off a little coz I gave him it thinking it is a good challenge and one he could do seeing as he dont work for a living. But he has recently banned himself from all sites tha he plays on and was obviously getting itchy feet and wanted to play cash. Couldnt resist!!. So he lost it all and now owes me my $100 back.

Im not even gonna read it back coz i can imagine how shite it reads!
