grats man that is awesome!
The supermarket, it seems, is the best place to pick up chicks. They are not travelling in packs there, they are usually defenseless, or with useless guards, such as sisters/brothers and or pa & ma.
Now, it is quite argueable if pa or ma are really defenseless, but in my experience, they are nowhere near as -EV for us hunters than their fellow females.
In my travels to this concrete-with-carts jungle, last week, I again confirmed my theory.
I went to the bakery department in a supermarket to ask for a special kind of bread, which they usually hold in stock. I couldn't find any, so I looked for somebody who worked there to ask for the bread. It was 10AM or so, and this specific supermarket is quite far amway from where i live, so I haven't been here in ages.
So I look for an attendant and I can't find any. I look and look around, and then I see some chick (who works there, ldo) stacking the bread stand. I ask her, "excuse me, you got casino loaf in this stack"?
She turns around and smiles. She only did that. Just a smile.
It was kinda like the most beautiful and fucking hypnotizing smile I've ever seen, and I've seen many. So beautiful, genuine, innocent and naughty, so many adjectives rolled together in one smile.
I'm usually composed, but there was a certain something very special about that girl. She was slender, had nice tits and what I first noticed, a genunely sizeable ass. I noticed how she actually looked afterwards, for some reason.
It gave me such an enormous hard-on, and I was wearing basketball shorts. It looked like I had a cucumber in my pants. A simple smile got me in such an embarassing situation. And the cucumber seemed to have adopted a mind all its own.
So there I was left standing, as she cheerfully stroddled away looking for a casino loaf for me. I had a truly hard time, pun intended, trying to disimulate the fucking bulge in my pants. I'm usually composed, but there was a certain something very special about that girl. She was slender, had nice tits and what I first noticed, a genunely sizeable ass. I suddenly felt like a rush, and urge, a pang, to grab her and push her into the closest shelf and do her in a million ways
She came back with the requested bread, and I was struggling even more now trying to hide the fucking cucumber from view, in a supermarket, with a decent crowd. I took the bread from her and immediately tried to hold it in front of me obv and asked her "do you know you have an angel's smile? do you always smile like that?"
she giggled, and answered "no"
Short summary of the rest of the story:

we have to make it something meaningful and tough to accomplish though, like [idea] a race to $20K or so($100 to the winner and the loser shall refer to the winner as "the awesomest" for a month) [/idea] with rules and stuff.
i still got a main event and aussie millions prop bet going on with bjsaust, but i see the ME one pretty dark, but a better chance for '09 aussie millions

Wow. She´s teh hotness. I usually cant manage to talk to girls like her...seems like my speech area stops working in the face of beauty lol.
I´ll take a Dirty Martini extra dry, celebrating my best poker month ever, finally managing to get the girl of my dreams to spend a weekend by the sea with me and that life is so fucking sweet!

Life is sweet indeed. Sometimes, we should stop in our tracks and smell the roses.
Yeah, I used to have real issues too with girls who were too beatiful in my opinion. But then, I got a pretty big band of girfriends (actually, friends who happened to be girls), and well, suffice to say I'm not that shy anymore.
I handle myself much more easily in front of nice girls now, and girls, apparently, are quite attracted to confidence.
I'm setting aside a one day a week in which I'll play nothing but tourneys. I'll set it to be about 5 - 8 tourney's, 2 to 3 tables, on various sites. This day will probably be Sunday.
I have a love/hate relationship with SNG's, which I now consider very fucking robotic (despite having made the majority of my first roll, as in pre rl shit, playing $5's, $10's, and occasional $20's.) I can't care less about them now, but in trying to regaain proper play, I'll make a commitment to play at least 1 (one) per week.
Yup, just 1.
Other days have been assigned to cash already.
I'm honing my C-game atm, which i'd say is playing tired and unfocused. I want to stop bleeding the way I do when I play like this. Yes, its counterproductive to play like this, but its all part of my prolonged training and preparation to properly pwn without making crucial mistakes.
How? By playing in this state of mind at limits I can afford to spew carelessly at, which I consider currently to be 10NL.
I have to double up to reach daven around approx. 5K, so we can make a proper prop bet about who will reach 25K first (since, apparently, our immediate goal is the same, which is "Sticking it to The Man and his 9 to 5s". This is easier at 400NL+, but you can do it playing 200NL overrolled as well.)
I still have some work left to do, so I cannot really *start engines and roll* like I want to do. I have problems in concentrating hard on more than one thing at the time. But I love to multitask, but if I have to concentrate to do well, I prefer to put all efforts into a single instance.
Even so, Daven, get prepared ;)
go jack go
Happy belated birthday my man! Drinks are on me tonight.

1600th post!
Shot time. Careful, it's considered fuel ;)
http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/3...1bottletp8.jpg
During the timespan between the 1st post here, and this 1600th post, I have seen myself mature from an innocent and naïve kid who thought that straight beats flush, once he actually learned wtf a flush was to a mofo bastard that stacks people for fun.
During my "previous run" or "roll" if you wish, I reached great heights. I saw myself as the next up-and-coming god of poker, huds were for pussies, I bluffed and semibluffed left and right. I had to wthdraw all of my previous roll to pay, obviously, for some very unforeseen and foreseen real life shit. I am thankful of having that money, pretty significant for me at that time (even though, today I see on full tilt the Rail Heaven table throwing around with my whole previous roll in 10 big bets, sigh)
I decided to rebuild my game from the ground up, taking care of every leak before its ingrained into me when I become a bigshot, and the errors will be more costly then.
You have to think about my game like some kind of nebula: full of cosmic matter, but still in essence shapeless and worthless. I just spend such a long time setting shape and essence into it, and the Jack Galaxy is almost ready.
Today, I still think HUDs are for pussies, and I am made of iron now. Humble and not proud, and still not totally fearless, but strong and tougher, I should probably change my forum name to Tony Starks. I steal orphan pots. I value bet thin. I assign ranges and act upon reads. I understand timely aggression. I understand board texture. I understand position. I now "know" when to bluff. I have developed an uncanny "feel" for the game. I know who I am up against, at all times. I am tighter than before, more aggressive in the right spots than before, not ever getting out of line, but only optimal.
I am not playing "Tight, Aggressive Poker" , but rather "pure poker". I see shit now. I don't go after stats, I'm not a baseball player. I don't give a shit about my RBI, Strike Out, and Left on Base percentage. I read souls.
The one leak I have right now, is that I am still not totally fearless. So when my soulreading fails, i am sorely out of luck. I am working hard on this.
And I am not a 1-trick pony. I do omaha/ omaha8, stud, razz, horse even, limit, no limit, pot limit whatever. Just not NLO/NLO8: that's not a game, that's trappers paradise. Good luck to anybody foolish enough to play that. And no 5CD Draw cuz I'm not a cowboy.
I have three beautiful women in my life right now that care for me (they don't know about each others existence, but whatever). I had a lot of friends, but my friend count seemed to have dwindled these days, traitors have revealed themselves and true ones have also revealed themselves. I have gotten enough of the style of music I like (lounge, lo-fi, house, bossa) , to last me 3 to 4 lifetimes. I have not gotten onto MSN for the past 2 or 3 months at least.
Right, now, on to my leaks. One of these is my tourney game during mid-game in large tourneys. I suck bigtime here. My early game is pretty much perfect, since I pretty much always reach the first break. However, afterwards, I suck bigtime.
I have been playing at least 2 small-buyin tourneys daily to remedy this. It seems like I have to increase my "gamble".
I don't want to win donkaments by getting lucky, rather, I want to now exactly wtf I am doing and start recognizing the donkament stages better.
Also, I'm tougher, but not fearless enough.
I still do not want to move up. I want to destroy 25NL for a massive winrate first. I am technically rolled for like 50NL, and maybe even a thin 100NL. The plan is to move up to 50NL when I have 160 buyins (I can't remember the math I made to come up with this, but generally its for confidence) for it, then I'd have no excuse to play 25NL anymore. Conservative, yes, I know. If I can somehow start averaging $100 daily profit (as in $100 for my pocket, the rest for the bankroll), I'll start living off this shit and live like a king. I think this will happen around 400NL at least.
But I'm not taking shots till I'm ready. Its very, very soon though.
My final table skills are pretty sharp as well, coming from a SNG background. However, since concentrating on cash I have done poorly to cash in SNG's for some reason.

Get a HuD and grind, $100 daily is gonna come way before 400NL...
try a can of V, 5 shots of Pisco, a decent splash of sav blanc and a drop of ginger ale - shaken with ice. It's a guaranteed pussy drink.Quote:

fuck $4,40-180 and the $11-180. That is all.
I want to swear them off and play just cash, but I know I can't. I'm weak.
Fuck it. Conquer cash, then play $20+ big field tourneys only when I can afford them without blinking, no more than 5 in any given week. That's the new direction. maybe the 360's...
And another thing: the next time I see the word "standard", I'm gonna puke.
all right, soul reader. here's my request in clues...
give it to me straight. light it on fire and back it with a draft. some say it tastes like Dr. Pepper. i say, just slide it down to my end of the bar.
special request/easy riddle. but, can you read my soul, bartender?
oh, and when you slide it down here. i'll raise it in the air and toast to..."all 3 ladies never discovering each other."
you remind me of Sam "Mayday" Malone from the US sitcom Cheers.

2. Place the shot glass in another glass and fill the outer glass with beer (right up to the level of the shot glass).
3. Ignite the amaretto/151 and let it burn for a while. Blow it out (or leave it burning if you're brave - not recommended) and slam it. Tastes just like Dr. Pepper.

About the plane ticket:
CUR-MIA > $600
MIA-VA > $400 est.
MIA-LV > $400 est.
VA-LV with kmind on roadtrip, while stacking donks in every casino we encounter = priceless
siccccccccck. But yeah, I say we change our operations to "Operation Vegas '09" but that's just one person's opinion. Gl with the girls, they can be really really dumb. I'm having a weird problem as well so don't fret too much my man.
Man seriously where on earth do you find your 'avatar girls'? Way better than porn imo..
Spit out your secrets Captain Jack!
Santiago de chile in April, Mexico by mid-June and see y'all in vegas next wsop...

I always wanted to be someone big in the model photography business [think: playboy, fhm, smooth etc.], or in the designer clothes business. I have not had the opportunity to pursue this, so instead I got real good in photo editing.
I'm setting up a design business, as in graphic design (well, its something) (also, I plan to, at some point, to support myself playing only pokah. but we have to get there first) along with a friend of mine currently. It offers a lot of freedom, as long as you meet deadlines. But I'm getting second thoughts, because people keep coming up with jobs they needed done yesterday, and they do not want to pay according to the contractor's pyramid. Its getting on my nerves.
But making avatars is really easy. Only find a pic, crop it, make a few color adjustments if necessary, and voila.
The following, for instance, only took me about a minute to make on average:
http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8...uthparksf5.jpghttp://img246.imageshack.us/img246/5136/02se7.jpghttp://img403.imageshack.us/img403/7...enturascr7.jpghttp://img401.imageshack.us/img401/5...ersmileno8.jpg

So, if you ever need a good avatar made, about anything, don't hesitate to lemme know.

I identified ages ago, that my biggest problems are psychological. When my heads right, I play well. If its not, I spew. This still seems to be my biggest problem. I'm trying to come up with ideas to help with that, but I'd welcome any suggestions as well.
I'll pm you shortly ;)
I just wanted to share this fucking awesome pic of David benyamine I found.
And also, I have rethought about my numerology superstition: I'll keep posting on this forum until I tire.

I've been watching Dexter lately, its pretty good.
I've been thinking about it, and it seems this will be the best thing to do. I have been grinding a lot lately, but I have found that you have to relieve your mind from things, give it some off time if you will, for it to perform at its absolute peak when you need it to. At times, like, during grinding.
So I have decided, since I have been grinding a lot these days, that it would be somehow counterproductive to post about poker here for me. Do not worry though: my bar will remain open, and you will continue finding lots of random crap here to make your day a little more pleasant. You can contribute if you want to, of course.
That said, what do you think about this hand?

fuck ongame and all its bonuses.
i'm grinding this $200 bonus I got going and then get the fuck out.
I dropped like 4 buyins at 30NL shorthanded because i had no idea what the fuck was going on when it got to me. misclicks, miss tables, etc. the graphics annoy me, the sounds annoy me, the glitches annoy me. the cashier annoys me. i have to sit out to reload wtf.
to think i used to like this shit at some point during last year.
the software is a technical and perverse nightmare. there are some truly bad players around here, but I can find just as many playing on stars at 25NL to 50NL at any given moment like easy peasy.
just GTFO.

A few things I kinda realized yesterday, while unrelatedly playing some Pro Evolution Soccer 6:
1) Many want to go to heaven, but few want to die to do so.
2) No matter how you look at it, as long as your opponent is not drawing dead, there are at least (52 - 20 - 1burn - 3flop) at least 29 cards to come by turn and river. Thats not a lot. I mean, thats like 1/29 to hit a card he might need, and obviously a bigger chance to hit more. Obviously, since a clean out is 2.5% (which is even less than this) and somebody could have also folded it, makes it even more interesting.
With this I mean is, that as long as the opponent is not drawing dead, there is always the chance he will hit. And this chance, is never tooo little, like 1 in 1 million.
3) The game is perfect. You, however, are not and will never be. Remember this.
You can strive to perfection, but you will not attain this, for the simple fact that you are human, and humans commit lots of errors all the time.
4) You have to forget about your big losses, but by association, you also have to forget about your big wins.
5) There are people who do it, and people who document it. Someone who documents cannot actually do it, and vice versa
On my game: I have gotten a lot better at closing the deal when playing tournaments. I have finally won my first $4,40, despite having coming in 2nd multiple times before. Basically, I get to the FT, but then I can only get either 2nd or 3rd. No other spots. While it has been very profitable during the course of my play, it has also been very frustrating.
Oh, and these things keep coming. Its specially nice, on a day in which I couldnt win a coinflip to save my life. And yes, I continue playing massively overrolled to my current stakes in SNGs. I'm leaving a lot of money on the table. I guess I'm very risk averse, I just don't like seeing that bankroll moving in the wrong direction with too big steps. Also, I got my roll spread out on 4 sites, mith a max of 750 on stars and a min of 200 on FT. about 600 on both ongame and PKR. about $300 sitting randomly in my moneybookers account. Maybe I should put it all in one place and grind it out?

I need some inspiration quick. I haven't played many hands at all this week or the week before.
So, I'm going to put up some goals, for the first time in months:
Ready?
$500 for a Metal Gear Solid edition PS3
$400 for a fucking comfortable chair.
That's it. Lets see how fast I can get this money in. o/u set at 13 days.
Now, since I'm planning to get a PS3, I need some sort of HiDEF TV set too.
But that will be for another race.
Why the PS3 first? Its a special edition that plays any playstation game ever made up until PS3, and may run out of production very soon.
GOGOGOGOGOGO! Lets see how many ways I can botch up this one!

I'm not on pace for $900 in under 9 days now, but I'm up about $250 despite only grinding approx 3 sessions. i made it a priority to only grind "when I feel like it", and so far I have had great results, just not very time-bound.
My next updates will be slow.
I just came from a basketball session lasting 3 hours, so im dog-tired, but I still feel good about putting in a quick 1-hr sesh of NL.
I realized a few more things:
I matured greatly. Bad beats are now more of a "meh" than an "OMFG"
I control my emotions much much better, except for my racing heart in tense situations. Its not that I don't "show" discomfort, its that I am not uncomfortable at all.
I keep thinking clearly most of the time, and when I go on momentary mental lapses, I kinda see them coming and prepare accordingly.
I am more of a "feel guy" than a "math guy"
$4 tourneys with 180 participants are not worth my time anymore. I have to play at the very least the $11-180's, the $20-180's, or the $9.90-360's. I need to keep my tourney skills somewhat sharp, as they have a much bigger part in my plan than I anticipated.
That said, I love cash sooo much more than I love tourneys.
And no Bjsaust, I have not forgotten about our bet. I hope you didn't, either ;)
Holy shit, the shift key is so goddamn obnoxious
Hey Jack, I feel the same way about tiliting. If I get reamed 3 or 4 times in a short period I feel tilty, but I return to normal much more quickly than I used to.
BTW, I'm pretty much a widower this month cuz it's year end for the wife at work, and she works late most nights every Sept. Therefore I'm not getting lucky. Hit me with something to numb me enough not to think about that.......
I think I got the perfect thing, cardsman
looks like we got to get the green fairy involved ;)

I'm only posting this hand, to remind myself some of my own previously rediscovered mantras
-don't go for broke in unraised pots (unless, of course, you got the nuts)
-FUKCING RAISE PREFLOP!
PokerStars (Tournament): $10 + $1, 9 players
Sat Sep 06 21:54:28 VET 2008
(Format: BBCode)
Hero ($3,990)
SB ($6,590)
BB ($5,415)
B6 ($4,425)
B5 ($12,885)
B4 ($2,595)
B3 ($2,750)
B2 ($3,580)
B1 ($6,855)
Hero is the button.
Precards:
SB posts the small blind $25, BB posts the big blind $50.
Preflop: Hero is dealt :7c: :Ac: (9 active)
2 folds, B4 calls $50, B3 folds, B2 calls $50, B1 folds, Hero calls $50, SB calls $25, BB checks.
Flop: :4d: :Jh: :As: ($250, 5 active)
SB checks, BB checks, B4 checks, B2 checks, Hero bets $150, SB calls $150, 3 folds.
Turn: :7h: ($550, 2 active)
SB bets $300, Hero raises to $900, SB calls $600.
River: :5c: ($2,350, 2 active)
SB bets $1,200, Hero raises to $2,890 (all-in), SB calls $1,690.
Final Pot: $8,130
Hero, net: -$3,990, Lost at showdown, has 7:c: A:c: (Two Pair, Aces and Sevens)
SB, net: $4,140, Won at showdown, has 2:h: 3:h: (a Five High Straight)
B2, net: -$50, Folded Flop
B4, net: -$50, Folded Flop
BB, net: -$50, Folded Flop
amny things are wrong here:
i'm the button, and I don't raise preflop
i only raised turn +600, so if he had a flush draw (since he would think that I would not raise if I had my own FD), he'd have to call 600 to win (600+300+550) 1450, plus implied odds if he hit that offsuit straight out.
so basically, I played like shit, and i have to make sure this mistake never repeats up again.
what's happenin? :D
what's up buddy?
good to see you back. ;)
martin back in town! Welcome!
you and I are the content of one of my favourite posts ever on FTR:

Great thread =)
I'll have a double JD and coke please. Did you ever finalise your zurich bank account? Did it involve much? Having a swiss bank account sounds like a blast.
here you go

and sadly, negative on the account. the moment i mentioned "poker", the rep told me "ty, but no go" and hung up
but i kept researching, and if eventually have the desirable problem of excess cash, i now know where to look
*hint = singapur
no poker for me for the last 4 days or so. had to format my pc, etc. last session i played i did drop two buyins though.
fuck you lee jones, my ass hurts

down like 8 buyins over the weekend, so now only up like 4 since the start of the ps3 thingy
god i hate this shit
in another perspective, this happened after I A) played > 4 tables, and B) started playing noticeably tighter. hmmm...
most probably i simply cannot play TAG, or misplay draws (since none ever hit), or someone jinxed me
Has someone whacked the entire FTR operations community with a "poker hates you" stick?
sorry bro but that turn bet-size is patheti-sad terribad.
Dude, bet the turn like you mean it.
>4 tables and tight? aren't you the king of reads and lines and loose though?
feels like it. Halfway through the month already and yuck. Was hoping for another $2k month, and I look on track for failing that one.Quote:

after getting raped all day, you really do start seeing monsters under the bed, except these monsters are very real and specially when you play for stacks.
it seemed like everybody would hit every single out they had yesterday and the day before everytime. the effect of these bad beats seem to compound, with every one "feeling" harder than the next. right after you double up, and keep playing, then BOOM two-outered again now for 200 big bets.
and when you are running bad, no better way to celebrate than bubbling a 4,40 180, in motherfucking 19th place.
and after that, to rub salt in my wounds, Q3 > T5 in a limped pot on a QT55 board for a buyin at ongame's 20NL, and I decided this shit is impossible and I should quit like for life.
this is true. i was trying to experiment and understand how people would run with VPIPs like in the 15s~20s. it seems like a very bad idea, its boring and they outdraw you worse.Quote:

so, i'm done with this tightening up and play more tables bullshit. fuck vpps, fuck rakeback, fuck bonuses. i'm reverting to old me yet again. play few tables, play many hands, never play tired, and read their souls.
also, i'll be on a "bankit" strategy for now.
i will take a short break to cool down. i will take some money out of my PS account, just to resist the urge to move up to chase losses. just let it sit there on moneybookers, or withdraw it and spend it all on bitches and booze.
he cant re-open the betting if his shove is less than a minraise, all you can do is just call at that point, if you want him to re-open the betting you'd bet like $2.95

There. that felt better.
I went into heavy PES mode, trying to get my head straight.
I did play a few games today for the first time in a long tim (not helped by the fact that electricity went out seconds after I had registered for 4 SNG's), but before that, I got stacked in a SNG in the strangest way. I will find that HH later today (I also did a some OS reinstalling recently) to post. What bothered me was not that my aces got cracked. What bothered me was that the river PSB for full stack went in after I was drawing dead. At least he tanked before calling me down with T4s on TJ25T board.
The money went in bad.
I can't fucking find it
but it was AA vs T4s on a TJ25T board. the way I bet left exactly 1 PSB on the river. my pf raise was 3x. I bet all streets. blinds at 10/20.
edit: here it is. this hand has been tormenting me. wtf's up with this hand?

Nice!
I also found some great music to grind to
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjOQ9...eature=related
\\I have also been trying to learn how to make electronic music. I got software and everything, I only need like a keyboard and shit.
of course, my genres would likely be lo-fi, lounge, chillout etc.
making stuff like this (Jens Gad - Northern Horizon)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyxvqR2eSbw
its a distant project of mine, hopefully not too distant [I want to make this type of music and write novels and shit]
LOL i love this tune. The Blues is the best imo.Quote:

I swear to god i'll openfold KK the next time i'm getting them
its not possible to have this many KK vs AA crap, and even so, I'm supposed to win 20% of them not 0%
premium pairs my ass
I ask you for forgiveness, dear poker gods, for having put up monetary goals.
I will not do it again.
now can I return to form? I already paid my positive variance for having flopped a royal flush earlier with 297973180884810 KK vs AA pf ai losses, not to mention constantly get river-3-outered or stacks. please let me run at least a little less bad.
Thank You.
kill a goat, it worked for badgers....
