Back and tired

What's up all,

Just got back from Vegas, it was an interesting trip and if I wasn't so tired I'd do a trip report...maybe next post.

Just a few random Vegas facts, came home a loser (1st time in over 4 years), didn't really play poker at all (the reason for number 1), finally met the man, myth & legend SplitSuit (very cool, sorry about the Chowder!) and experienced a Vegas I never really have before...

Well it's nap time, I'll fill in the blanks later...Hope everyone is doing well. Later

Countdown

What Up all.

Well thankfully my birthday has come and gone and I don't have to deal with that anymore...IMO after your 21st birthday then they don't really matter much...We didn't really do anything for it, which was my wishes so that's cool. I got two of the sickest presents ever! My wife is taking me to Vegas, and I got a golf membership from my parents. So needless to say I'm way pumped!

Poker has been dec. I slacked off in the 1st three weeks of January so I won't clear my entire bonus. which sucks but, meh what do you do...

I've been playing decent, just seems that I am losing the big pots I get involved in. Good thing is I've been ahead in the majority of them with the others being I missed my massive draw...So I guess without the coolers and suck outs I'd be having a pretty decent month.

We leave for Vegas on Friday. It's going to be a blast, SS and I are getting together for dinner or something. We're staying at Planet Hollywood and I've never stayed there before so I'm looking forward to that...I desperately need a vacation and since Vegas is paradise it just adds up to a great weekend. It's been way too long since I've been there (almost 2 years) so I can't wait...I'm in vacation mode already.

Have a great week everyone. Later

Ocean Shores

Hey all,

So it's the official go to Ocean Shores with the wife's' family weekend. I'm really looking to getting away from it all and just relaxing. Should be a good time. Other than the fact there's no Internet so I can play cards, I'm really excited about relaxing, it's always good to take a break.

So I've started to dabble in the whole "RUSH" poker on FTP. I will honestly say that it makes me honestly a worst poker player...the bad part about that (other than the obvious...) is that the games are actually good and I'm making money at it...Lately I've been playing 9 tables of 50nl and 2 tables of RUSH 25nl...IDK what to think but I like winning so I'll probably stick it out until something changes.

I'm also starting to learn PLO. I figured it was time to learn something else, as I've experienced Hold'em burnout a little bit. So I purchased my first book and plan on reading it over the weekend. Should be a fun/rewarding challenge.

Well have a good weekend everyone. Later

End of Month

Hey all,

So Today was end of month at work. End of month is always different...sometimes you're not happy and feel like you didn't do your job. sometimes you hit your goal and feel satisfied but not overly happy, and then there's days like to day, when you (personally) have the best month ever at this location (beating my old record, lol)... and everyone is happy and we have a BBQ at work...seriously I hope there's way more days like this in my future...

Kid is doing better, we found out she has Krupe (spelling???) and that unfortunately for her, she inherited her dads' asthmatic symptoms (way no bueno), so it makes it even harder on her. We got some breathing machine that helps her and gives her medicine for her lungs to start healing, so she's on the mend, and has definitely getting better, (thank God!).

Poker has been really weird...The month ended out crazy hot, then a complete 180, then ran way hot for about 5 days, not I've dropped 4 BI the last two days...wtf?!

Worst thing about it my red line...it's just a steady declining line (down 4 BI), and I'm usually a somewhat break even red line, it might dip down one month or be up one month, etc, but it hasn't looked like this in a long long time, I have a feeling it might be because the games have been too good as of the last week, and I've been trying to be too aggressive when I could just relax a bit and still get paid off and steal a few, etc etc...hopefully it'll be nothing a lesson can't fix...

I'm still up on the month, but it's not an impressive w/r at all...I just need the next two days to be good ones (massive sessions on sat and sun...), and the month will be a good success rather than, a moderate win...

Well that's it I guess, have a great weekend everyone...later

Weekend/ WBCOOP

What's up all. Hope everyone is doing good out there. I often wonder if anyone actually reads this...

Nothing major going on. Things are going well at work and I'm crushing my goals this month, so I'll look good and actually make a little more than normal so it's a win-win all the way around...

Poker has been pretty good. I've definitely been playing much better. I really have no idea why but I haven't put in any amount of volume at all. I've only played 9k hands mtd, the weird thing is I've played 85% of the days...random I guess I'm just only playing 45 minutes to an hour long session, rather than the normal 2 hours min, so that probably explains it. So now that I've dug myself into a hole I have to put in some serious volume so I clear my bonus.

I've also signed up to play in the "World Blogger Championship of Online Poker". It's a free series of poker tournaments, that is free to all bloggers!, so sign up today and I'll see you there. (follow the link on the right and it will take you to where you need to go)

Well have a good weekend everyone. later

Seriously???

What's up everyone.

So I finally got my mouse. It has been almost a year long process that ended up with me getting one from China (wtf?!), the mouse I've used for the last 6 years is really the only mouse I've had, and I guess my hand has just molded to it, I've went threw at least 6 mouses and none seem to allow me to play for more than 30 minutes because I start to cramp up.

I have not been in the mood to play lately because the mouse I was using really hurt my hand and I couldn't concentrate at all because the buttons didn't work properly....I got the mouse on Thursday and it's like a new world has opened up. lol. I actually can sit for more than an hour and play and not get tilted and have a throbbing hand...

I've been grinding again and it's really fun again. I honestly had no idea how pissed my mouse was making me. I was concentrating on the pain and cramps of my hand rather than the screen and all my tables. I'm actually concentrating on the action and my results are soooo much better (sample size I know...) that it's refreshing. So needless to say I'm pumped that's taken care of.

My daughter is not a happy camper right now...poor kid has an ear infection and strep throat. I don't think I've seen her cry as much as she has the last two days in her whole life...it's really a sad hopeless feeling, definitely not fun at all. She's on antibiotics so they should start kicking in really soon and hopefully ease her pain and heal her infections...I'm hoping she's back to her normal silly fun self by the days end...we'll see.

Hope everyone is having a good week. Later
