    Default Philly's Space

    Hello

    I am Philly, (warning tldr coming up about life, skip to bottom for porn)

    a lot of ppl dont know me on here, but im trying to get to know everyone, i just got lynched day 1 in my first WW, am taking part in the FTR fantasy football league that kicks off this weekend, i am (kinda) in a prop bet with spoonitnow, and im always in IRC.

    I love pokers, football, basketball, smoking weed, and television (southpark seinfeld futurama simpsons eastbound and down louie sopranos the wire breaking bad ect)

    i am 21 i live in florida, (not actually from philly (lol )) ..i have a big family, i am the oldest of 4 biologically and then about 5 years ago my parents adopted 2 children
    from guatemala (they are the shit, we call them "the guats"), and my puppy.

    As for my pokers history i started playing recreationally with homies in like 06 when i first found this site, started playing online, won like a grand in tournies on bodog, cashed most of it out and lost the rest due to sucking. Deposited a hundo in like 08, tried tournies, went busto again, then last summer (09) i deposited 50 bucks into Stars, decided i would play cash starting at the bottom, so i played for like 2 months and got my roll up to like 150, i got bored and stopped playing. Donked first in a tourny in february one night when i was drunk for like 300 bucks, took out my whole roll except for 65 dollars which went untouched for a couple of months until June when i decided to start playing again.

    I took my 65 bucks and ran it up to 200 playing 5nl. Since then i have donked first in a tourny (ftr500 actually) banked a lot of bonus and rakeback money from signing up at FTP, so my roll is now at 650.

    Despite all this good news July and August were terrible months for me pokerwise, in my 40k hands at 10nl i am -1ptbb for -100 bucks. So obviously there is a lot that needs fixing. Initially i figured i was just running like shit as i went on a 17bi downswing, came back and was up 5 or 6 bi, and now have gone on another 14-15 bi downswing, so obviously i need to slow down and figure out what im doing wrong. I am rolled for 25 nl but i wont move up until i have like 20k hands of at least 4pt bb or so at 10nl


    this is already TL; DR so ill wrap it up here, im going to use this space to post hands i have questions on, general goals, life observations, things i find funny, basically anything i feel like filling this space with.
