4NL madness and then some...

Obv the 3 bloggers all had to play some 4NL all in every hand last night, and what a +ev session it was! Gill started off best and was up 5-6 buyins, while me and fiend were down a couple. The the hand that changed the whole table dynamics came: Gill moves in for 22$ with K6o, some other random guy is in with KJ, I'm in the BB and feel pot committed with my 32o and make the valuecall. Flop is 422 and my hand holds up. After this hand I completely pwn every all in and get up to 50$ ++. 1250 BB is hardcore! Some of the hands were against pokerfiend ( nitty Gill quit after 32o stallownage ) where he supposedly "dominated" me with 75o vs 45s and 86s vs 85o. Little did he know i was thinking on the 66th level and knew what board would come and I took some more chippoes while he cried cause he couldn't play with his last penny =/ Got badbeated a couple hands in a row and left with ~30$. Ship it!

One lass from my class ( hey, that rhymed! ) also plays poker, so a last longer bet was obv gonna happen in the 4/180s on Stars. I played bad, but she busted early and now owes me a pint when we're oot on the sauce tomorrow. Ship it!

Also played some on BetSafe and ended up 400$, can't remember how, but who cares? Ship it!

Today I was doing fairly well in a 13,5k teed on FTP, but losing a flip and then having to move in with A3 vs KK is teh suck so I ended up 32nd for a massive 57$. Ship it!

Played some random stuff like an Omaha 8/B tourney that I've somehow FT'd before, but tonight was really bad. Suck it!

WHat to do now? Obv can't sleep...

Youporn ftw?

100NL

Well, didn't take my roll long to hit $2500+ so i'm about to play a 6 hour or so session of 100NL, which i havn't done in a long long time. Wish me luck! :)

Heres a couple fun hands from earlier i lol'd at.

5 buyin pot ftw?

Aye aye bawbags

bluelips finally makes his appearance!

I finally got my internet working over here at my new gaff. Been a couple months with not much poker being played, but atleast I've been getting drunk a lot. Hi 5!
Now I'm probably going back to the degenerate ways of playing poker till early morning. My studies won't suffer from this, I'm sure of it.

Last week was filled with heavy boozing Norway style, but unfortunately I got really pissed (off) on Friday and slagged some of the people in my class off, but everyfing seems to be alreet now. No more angry bluelips i'm sure of it.

As far as poker content goes, I obv played my fair share last nite and didn't sleep until 7.am. Obv very tired bluelips shows up late in class, but managed to make it through the day. Last night's session was very neutral EV, and I wasn't very pleased with being up a massive 12$ =/


Edit: Fun hand from today

Dealing>Playing

Why can't i play tight?

Headed over to liverpool on saturday to play the live game going on and obv went busto after around 15 hands because the blinds and levels were huge compared to starting stacks so i instantly went into hyper-agressive-lagtard- playing my usual 50NL game mode. C-betted a few pots and stole a few blinds to build my stack up before donating to the gutterball with 88 on a 5567 board to the nut straight after potting the flop in position- STANDARD. Got my last few BB's in with 84 and managed to make a qualifying low hand, obv no good in this game. Spent the rest of my time dealing, which i seem to do better than playing. Dealer school here i come?

Oh yeah, i lost a buyin too online because my internet sucks.

And where is bluelips?

Drunken escapades

Sorry in advance for the lack of poker content in this post. I'm coming off probably the shittiest week i've ever had in school, which was capped off yesterday with a midterm presentation of our design project. This was located in a conference room in front of 5 profs. I was actually at school for 30 hours straight on tuesday-wednesday morning finishing this report with my group.

Now I guess these profs enjoy pushing students, who are already ready to snap from this week, right over the edge. Apparently a couple of the girls in my class came out of the room in tears. However, I think that our presentation went well, and I thought we handled the onslaught of questions pretty good. Our project is to design a 1000bbl/day biodiesel plant in canada. From what I understand biodiesel is pretty big in Europe, and the US to some extent, but pretty much non-existant in Canada.

Anyways after this some celebration was in order and a large amount of alcohol was to be consumed. Needless to say I am waking up to a killer hangover and a trashed apartment today. Also there appears to be a street sign in my roomates room, which im not completely sure how it got there. We also went to some club for a bit, not sure how exactly I got in because I dont think I was really able to stand at that point. Anyways it was pretty cool there, except everyone was in halloween costumes, and I was not because I was unaware that the halloween parties were going on this weekend.

Anyways I guess I better post some poker content. Here's a pretty key hand from the final table of the 1500 guarenteed final table, I can't find the hand history so stack sizes are estimates, I think there's 8 people left at this point and im chip leader, with villain in 2nd place.

Villain is dealer, Hero is BB.
Villain (38000)
Hero (43000)
blinds: 1500/3000

Hero is dealt: Qc, 4s

Folds to villain.
Villain raises to 9000.
SB folds.
Hero raises all-in.
Villain folds and shows Ac Js.

Now obviously if I knew he had AJ, which im pretty sure was in the upper part of his range, I wouldnt have pushed. But I had several things working for me here. I pushed and got the result that I wanted.

Here i am!

Well, i made my way over here so i can share my experiences of making and losing 15-25 buyins a day which i seem to have a habit of doing.

Currently playing 50NL on party with a $1950 roll and have nearly 20k hands racked up on PT (which i suck at using so far) so i plan on moving up once i hit $2500 or so.

That's pretty much it for now, ill try update with decent poker and non-poker content but i'm a really boring, unsociable person so the chances of me posting something interesting are fairly slim.

Bye for now! =)

Additional Bloggers

Happy to announce that Chrisgill and Bluelips will also be blogging on this site.

I made a blog

Yea, so I got bored and made this blog. Guess a few of you will recognize me as pokerfiend or holymackerel on poker.com. This blog will probably focus on poker, if im not too lazy and actually end up writing in it. At the moment I'm only playing a few hours a week and am currently playing at wpex and poker.com.

Tonight I played for maybe 4 hours at poker.com, which was nice since I haven't had the time to play lately. I just 6 tabled 25 NL cause im a nit like that, and also just felt like playing some mindless poker cause I was tired. I'm also trying to maybe get the comp points for sundays 50k, before today i only had 75cps so far this month so I don't know if i'll end up playing it. But i did get about 2500cps tonight so I might end up playing it. Made maybe 250$ or so tonight, so I guess it was a decent night. Cashed for 180$ in the 1500 teed, probably should've won it, but I managed to double up the short stack beside me about 5 times. Wasn't ever ahead when we got our money in preflop, but you think I could win one of those times. Oh well, thats poker, that player knocked me out when KJ couldn't hold vs QT...so I don't win when I'm ahead anyways.

Can't really complain, I ran really hot early in the tournament and had like 30k by first break, which was more than double anyone else. Cash tables were meh, ran pretty avg, played pretty avg. I lost a bunch at the end with K7 vs K8 on K78. Feel like I misplayed that one, I dont think I had to lose 200BB there, but I like donating money I guess, so whatever.
