Come join LiveActionWhale on his 20k challenge sprinkled with a lil DFS and golf involved. - Poker Blogs and Goals -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Hey guys, gona try to get back to poker and see if I can find the excitement that it once gave me. I picked 20k cause I won't obviously get to go at it full time and it sounds like a good stress free number.

Along this journey I'll be mixing it up with Poker, Daily fantasy sports, playing golf, cause my poker circle loves to gamble on the course and when NFL gets here sports betting will commence. I will be shot taking if I do well in some cash games at the higher PLO tables cause my sick self loves variances.

Played 1-2 for a couple hours at a friends place, his bad beat jackpot is up to 5k. As I got into the game you could tell it was winding down, not good. I really wish I could report something fun but it was uneventful and left 40$ ahead. I guess the good news is we were able to get a round of 18 set up for the morning. See u guys tomorrow afternoon.

There were 4 of us today on the course so We played teams and each team gets one point for team total low for the hole and one point for the low individual score, so a max of two points per hole can be won. Ties obviously cancel each other out and no carry over. It's 5$ a point with a possible press on the back 9. Press means each point become 10$.

We also played each other in Nassau, which is 20$ for front nine total, 20$ for back and 20$ for over all with the press possible on the back.

We all kind of hacked around on the course today but I came out 155$ minus 40 for golf for a profit of 115. Game set up for Monday.

Poker +40
Golf +115
DFS -110

It's nice to live in a town with a good selection of home games. Played a $60 freeze out. Total of 43 people paying top 6. I was up and down the whole night and just couldn't get anything going, I ended up in 7th and managed to break even cause they all chipped in for the bubble boy. Yippie! Thank you nice people.

Side note on DFS, my two main golfers did not make the cut : ( not a good week. I do how ever have 3 line ups out of the whole bunch that have a decent chance to do something.
2 line ups in the 6k in the top 35 out of 6900 entries. And in the single entry Divot tourney I'm in top 40 out of 862.

FML just entered Draftkings NASCAR, I know nothing about nascar but the overlay is great. Just took a look at Vegas odds and past few results. Just 4 entries into the 100k.

Poker tourney tonight. Small one but the people are great and atmosphere is fun.

Well golf today went bad lol I had the mental block going on the whole 18. We were all playing Nassau for 25$ Each side and total, everyone agreeing to press on the back for 50$.
Broke even with one, got skunked by one and lost the press and total and lost a few points in the team gamble for a loss of 270$ plus 35$ for golf. 305$ round of golf : )

I put four 3$ entries into the nascar and two cashed for a small profit of 2$ First time in history I watched nascar and fantasy makes it pretty exciting lol

Going into the final day of DFS, things are great. I'm in the running for a 5k package where I'm 5th out of 1300 people. 2nd place in a winner take all. 200 for first and in the 100k guaranteed I'm in the top 160 out of 38k. First is 10k.

I will be maxing out my entires for the memorial big one on draftkings. I will actually be at the tourney. If anyone wants action with me, let me know, first is 100k and I'm going to win it.

I will be able to put poker in when I arrive in Columbus Wednesday.

Hey guys, little update on everything. DFS went well but I ended up with alot of top 10,s and no big wins and ended up down 90$.

Just got here for the memorial classic PGA event in Ohio. Watched some practiced rounds and hung out for a bit before heading to the poker room. Wish I could report good news but poker got me for 400$ as I totally just lost patience. Poker has become so boring to me.

Variance in GPP's for golf is wild. I could go as high as minus 2k before hitting a big one, maybe higher lol.

Guys are back in town from Vegas so we should be getting money games going again.
As for poker, the underground games are slow due to it being summer time.

Try to make a guy believe your bluffing, get your wish and he shoves, I call with middle set, he has that look on his face of oh wow didn't know you were that strong, he sheepishly turns over a flush draw. I start to pack my stuff up cause that's how good I run.

Played at the same place tonight. Bought in for 150 and cashed out for 740, ontop of that I hit a straight flush which carried a bonus of 1000$ so we will take that, only beat I had was breaking or severely ****** my hand up moving a table. I don't know if it's broken hand, knuckle or pinky finger, no golf for prolly up to 3 weeks.

DFS golf continues the Down slide -110 this week, trying something new this week combining certain stats for green Briers. So we were leaving for the trip and my hand got worse, decided to go to urgent treatment center. X-rays were positive for a really bad break of the knuckle completely off the bone, surgery in the morning with ortho doctor. No golf for 12 weeks.

No work either, but the good news is that I got approved for a loan to open up my food truck I've always wanted to do. Total niche I got and I'm friends with the top Guys who are pretty helpful.
