for fuck's sake.......

I killed it yesterday and Friday making like 5K or so and so I decide to take a shot at a higher level and the doomswitch gets turned on. It's so f-in sick! I win like 20 buyins at 400NL, then move up to 5/10 and drop 3500 to the biggest idiot who runs god mode on me. It's just disgusting. Everything you do, you just can't win a pot. C/r raggy boards and he has top pair or two pair. Reraise AK and he has 52 on a A52 board. just gross stuff like that. Makes you want to quit poker and puts the feeling in your heart that you'll never move up and make the big money.

this game is so stupid.

seriously cooler action. The rollercoaster continues. I've been playing more on Bodog lately and the action is sick good. I lost today on stars and full tilt, but crushed the 5/10 game and jumped in the 10/20 game for a little bit. It's a big game for my bankroll obviously, but i saw some weak spots in there and if I drop a buy in, I will just recover at the smaller stakes.

On other note, my wife won her first 90 person KO (knock out) tourney yesterday tripling her 250.00 bankroll that i started her with lol. It was really amusing and I didn't even help that much!

dumb donkaments

spent like 3K on tourneys today and haven't cashed a single one. Losing races when it matters, losing when ahead, etc... it's been a disaster sunday (or normal for most online players) where you dump your cash winnings on tourneys looking for the big score and getting nothing in return. This pretty much sums up my day.

I actually got it in bad there, but whatever. Only tourneys left are the FTOPS ME 535.00, the Mulligan 216.00, Stars 100 and UB200K 215.00 Hopefully I can go deep in one to make up for my losses today....

more FTOPS and stuff

Played the 500.00 heads up matches yesterday and won my first 4 matches, but then lost to the biggest idiot in the history of poker. JJ < A10 river ace obv, then AQ < KK oh well. Played the 215.00 turbo heads up matches also and won my first 6 matches, then lost to another donkey. At one point, I was stuck 4800 yesterday which of course is bad, but those 2 cashes were for 2800 or something dumb then I sat at 5/10 on Bodog and took 1200 from someone and then played some 1/2 on UB vs a fish and took 600 from him and ended the day only down 100.00 lol nice rollercoaster imo.

I made a final table the other day in the 100rebuy on Stars which is one of the hardest tourneys on the internet. I 4 bet AQs all in but the dude had AK boo to that and I'm busto 7th for like 4.5K. I really had a shot there to win it all for 25K, but maybe another day.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so hopefully I'll be thankful for a Sunday Major win today.

sigh for stakes

A friend of mine who I staked last year for a few FTOPS omaha events (he didn't cash them for me) asked me to stake him this year for the PL omaha event and I said no. Well, he shipped it all for 51.2K so that blows for me. lol. I would have gotten 60% of that or 30K or so. I mean, we are all super happy for him cause he's broke as shit, but I wish I would have staked him! With like 50 left we traded 5% of him for 9% of me (he had more chips) so I got 2500 out it, but still lol on me. I got 16th in the PL Omaha event for like 1400 or so after you add the knockouts and I did get one pro bounty. It's continued to be a rollercoaster battle with this pro thing. I'll win a few thousand, then give it back and rinse and repeat. I am up 10K over the last 4-5 days though which is super nice though. This whole new legislation is a bit sketchy and I still don't understand it all, but once again could be the end of online poker, but who knows...
