Day 172


Good days!

Last night was dead at the tables compared to early in week, must be symptom of Easter I guess.

Got to say, I am totally knackered! I need to get a couple of days rest and recharge a bit but I also need to sort my diet out and get back to feeding my body right. I can't keep up these hours and not look after myself.

Coach is on vacation until tomorrow but will ask him if its ok to take three days off or something. Family are off school/work so hopefully we could have some days out together as I am off work for four days anyway.

Roll Update.
2 days = +$71
Roll = $1970
Overall profit/loss = $282

Happy Easter amigos!

Thanks guys. It's only one month I guess but hopefully this trend will continue. Full credit to coach for recognising my issues.

I have to play and study a certain amount of hours per week. Due to 55 hours per week at work and some family obligations if I took 3 days off I would never be able to get my hours in. As its Easter and my work is closed Monday + Tuesday it seems like perfect opportunity for a break. For other guys at CFP who are not working I guess they can take 3 days off and still get their hours in for the week.
Hope you are well mate, good to hear from you.

Day 179


Wow! Fantastic few days off, really needed that!

Safari Park was awesome, few nice meals out with wife, cinema for kids film, tiny bit of gardening, several beers and general relaxing and chilling out. Difficult to quantify how much I needed it but let's just say a ****ing lot!!!!

Back at the tables last night and ran nicely in cards and villains! Did a good warm-up and hit the tables running. Action was pretty crap tbh so need more rooms still.

Roll Update.
1 day = +$125
Roll = $2090
Overall profit/loss = +$446


I am looking after my health better too. Started yesterday at 202.5 lbs.



Just starting by keeping an eye on the "extras" I was eating and get some light exercise in. Will start a more regimented diet next week and remove some pounds fast.

Today:



Just fluctuations I think, didn't do much special other than no crap when playing last night (I was eating snacks lately).

Dat sugar gonna kill ya.

COACHING FOR PROFITS @ BPC
DAY 182


UPPING THE GAME. PISSED OFF WITH **** PROGRESS. SOME MIGHT SAY ITS OK BUT ITS ****. MORE TIME IN FORUM, MORE STUDYING HANDS, MORE STUDYING BASIC STUFF UNTIL IT IS DEEP IN MY THICK SKULL.

I SPEND TOO MUCH TIME THINKING ABOUT MY OTHER PROJECTS AND STUFF AND I CANNOT PROGRESS THOSE ANY FURTHER UNTIL I AM KNOCKING $5K MONTHS OUT AT POKER. I AM SUCH AN IDIOT SOMETIMES.

MADE SOME DUMB RIVER CALLS LAST NIGHT. STUPID TILT CRAP. ENTITLEMENT VERSUS FISH OR SOMETHING CRAZY. DISGUSTING.


ROLL UPDATE.
2 DAYS = -$35
ROLL = $2047
OVERALL PROFIT/LOSS = +$409


NO MORE WASTED TIME! PULL THE GOD DAMN TRIGGER YOU KLUTZ!!!

I wouldn't count on making millions in poker... Only a handful of people did post 2011 and they didn't do so playing heads up with conservative bankroll management.
Respect for your work ethic but Heads-up poker isn't where the big bucks is at.

BISH-BASH-BASH...

WHO HAS ROBBED MY DOSH!!??



THIS IS NOT OFFICIALLY A STOP-LOSS BUT AS I WAS SERIOUSLY TILTED DUE TO SOME SOFTWARE/PC ISSUES I MADE A DISCIPLINED QUIT BEFORE I SPEWED ANOTHER BUY-IN AND WILL POST HANDS (AS WOULD USUALLY BE REQUIRED IF IT WAS STOP LOSS)


1. "RUNNER RUNNER RUNNER RUNNER"

Stacks:
SB Hero ($52.98) 106bb
BB ($79.64) 159bb

Pre-Flop: (0.75, 2 players) Hero is SB A A
Hero raises to $1.50, BB raises to $2.50, Hero raises to $8.50, BB raises to $14.50, Hero goes all-in $52.98, BB calls $38.48

Final Pot: $105.96
Hero shows two pair, Aces and Fours
A A
BB shows a flush, King high
J J

BB wins $105.46 (net +$52.48)

Hero lost $52.98

THOSE ARE MY SECOND FAVOURITES, ONLY BEATEN BY IF IT WAS QT98 RUN OUT LOL!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hero collects $13.06 (net -$37.19)

#WHATEVER

------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. "BAD TIMING!"

SB ($22.37) 45bb
BB Hero ($53.50) 107bb

Pre-Flop: (0.75, 2 players) Hero is BB 4 Q

SB shows Flush of Clubs
9 7
Hero shows Three of a kind, Fours
4 Q

SB wins $42.74 (net +$20.37)

Hero lost $22.37

WELL, I WAS NOT EVEN LOOKING ON THE RIVER HERE. HAPPENED SECONDS AFTER HAND #1 ABOVE. JUST SAW TRIPS AND WAS GONNA BET/FOLD 1/2 ON THE RIVER THEN SAW HIS STACK AND GOTTA CALL OBV. WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. "I DO LOVE THESE GUYS"

Stacks:
SB ($19.15) 38bb

Final Pot: $51.15

SB wins $36.39 (net +$17.24)

Hero collects $12.85 (net -$19.15)

IT'S BECAUSE OF MOFOS LIKE THIS THAT THERE IS MILLIONS OF BUCKS TO MADE AT POKER. GOTTA LET 'EM HIT EVERY NOW AND THEN TO KEEP 'EM IN THE GAME! SEE HOW I RAN GOOD HERE AND HE WAS NOT FULL STACKED!?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. "BOTTLED RIVER?"

BB checks, Hero checks

Final Pot: $19
BB shows Three of a kind, Fives
5 6

BB wins $18.05 (net +$8.55)

Hero lost $9.50

I SHOULD BET/FOLD THE RIVER HERE BUT I THINK IT'S A SYMPTOM OF RUNNING BAD (ALTHOUGH I AM STILL A PUSSY ON THE RIVER).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

River: 4 ($18, 2)
BB bets $9, Hero folds

Final Pot: $27

BB wins $26.10 (net +$8.10)

Hero lost $9

NOT SURE IF I AM SPEWING HERE. I WOULD FOLD ANY OTHER SPADE ON TURN THAN NUT FLUSH DRAW BUT THINK I GOT SOME IMPLIED HERE. DO YOU BET FLOP AND TURN?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

7. "DONK!!!!!!!"

Stacks:
SB Hero ($50) 100bb
BB ($18.97) 38bb

Pre-Flop: (0.75, 2 players) Hero is SB A 8

BB goes all-in $10.81, Hero folds

Final Pot: $27.13

BB wins $26.32 (net +$7.35)

Hero lost $8.16

WORST YOU CALL ON RIVER???

I don't like ur sizing at all in 4Qs. His most likely hand is a draw when he bets $1.5 and even if it isn't then it's weak SDV that isnt calling that bet.

Bet/Fold $2 instead imo
