bleak poker

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 03:54:00 +0000

OK I havent updated this for ever problby down $200 live and online in the last mo2 months.
I just cant seem to win . It really sucks it suckout city all the time .runner runner crap push with aa or kk and gt blind sided 9 10suited and shit like that.
At the home game I am a gracious host by that I mean sharing my bankroll .the regular games I do well the crazy games 357 follow the queen criss cross I just keep getiing beat. Its sick I say.
So for now I am Trying stud 8 mainly for awhile (maybe limit is my game). Maybe I should just take up knitting or shoplifting. Any way If anyone rads this I hope you are running better than me.

first week

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 22:23:00 +0000

Well its been a week of work and kids not much poker so every thing stands the same.
The only poker has been stud8 micro 10c 20c .I really like this game now its a good change of pace. No change to the bankroll.

2008 starts out

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 04:06:00 +0000

OK its 2008 I hope my bankroll grows. I played a little local tavern freeroll And Go figureI won.
Played the same style as always until I built a chipstack then it was donk city. Called raises blind,Raised on ace trash then bullied.and often sucked out classic freeroll poker.Still It was nice to win Even though it was only a$20 food voucher.

end of the year

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Wed, 26 Dec 2007 20:13:00 +0000

End of the year update here.Well 2007 will go down as my worst year of poker ever. Up a total of $100 or so its just sad . Last year I won $3000 but I guess its better than being down. So its on to 2008 make the poker gods shine on me better.

I dont know

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 20:51:00 +0000

almost tilted

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 19:47:00 +0000

Ever go on tilt? I am sure you have just like me. I found myself on the edge the other day dropped like 10% of my banroll at bodog after being up from my high. It was always second best or suckout city.from $311 to $257 in like 2 hours.....So Bodog must want some of the money back? I had to change it up so I played 7std0/8 at stars and won it back and little on top of that.
I guess I will teach bodog a lesson and cashout $200 and start over with $57 and play the begineer sngs there they pay top 5 spots.

Thanks for the advice ash !! Maybe someday I will read a pokerbook but I should know better
myself then to mix it up with those starters but you got to mix up play every once and awhile?
Maybe I just need to stick with ass tight......

Bodog $257
ab $13
stars $77

year +$293

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Wed, 31 Oct 2007 04:58:00 +0000

Slow climb forward

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Wed, 24 Oct 2007 13:15:00 +0000

I have played alot lately but cant seem toget anywhere its up and down rollercoaster.
Build it up then a line of bad beats ,rinse and repeat.If I had rakeback at Bodog I would be doing better but thats not the case. I just need to stick to my game easier said than done.

Bodog $205
absolute $13
Stars $18

year +$185

Still a donk

noreply@blogger.com (thrash1294) — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 05:11:00 +0000

I am still a donk at heart. I still find myself calling down top pair top kicker all the way down at times. Calling your stack down on top pair is stupid (insert my name here).You got to watch out for the sb bb specials(floppin 2pr or better on the limp in flops. Anyway still donking along the positive road.

Bodog $185
Absolute $13
Stars $19

year +$167
