I'm Going To Egypt

Tomorrow afternoon with the bird for one week to Sharm El Sheikh, GG new start/new grind. Its Kels b'day on Thursday so i thought i'd treat her plus she works redic hard and deserves a break unlike myself. I WILL begin another new start/new grind (my 27th so far i think) if i return home safely some time next week :-)

Played a bit of poker since Brighton and made a few quid but nothing worth raving about. Also played the http://www.raisetheriver.com/ league game two tonight and had a dirty 3 outer to bust me 7/12, I came 2/12 last week. It's basically a four game 12 man satty for a two night all expenses trip to Paris to play a tournament at the Aviation Club in Paris. Click here for all the details! It was originally my idea and both myself and BurnleyMik have put a fair amount of work into making it happen. Next month will involve an all expenses trip to Amsterdam to play in an event at the Dutch Masters. Get yourself signed up fish, its a cracking little forum, with staking opportunities and good banter etc and this time i have not been paid to say that! ;-)

Stoned Poker ftw

Down in Brighton atm just chilling with my mate Cogs who is kinda playing poker for a living since he got made redundant last month. Its quite nice to actually sit in the same room with a fellow poker fish discussing hands and playing poker at the same time. I reckon if i did this more i would probably be more motivated and would also probably improve as a player just because of reg convo's about hands and strat etc. You read about online degens getting gaffs together and just grinding the tourns and cash games, it must help. We also had a few cheeky bifters last night and that made me feel really focused and zoned into the games i was playing. I used to be stoned practically every day of my life when i was at uni back in the day. All we used to do was get stoned tbh, that and play billions of games of ISS Pro Evo on the PS whilst monged out of my brains, get pissed, rump a few birds and hammer out a few intense days of study. It would have been wicked if online poker was around 8-9 yrs ago, i would have made a shit load of dosh. Anyway, i managed to make $600 last night which was ok ish given the games and hrs i played. I might have to get back on the gear, how much is a 8th of skunk these days? :-)

In other news, i just booked a cool little 4 night trip to Dublin in Oct to play in the International Poker Open. I'm flying/staying with 11 other fish from the Blonde forum. It only cost £160 for flights and accommodation, it should be a funny few days. I've also got the RaisetheRiver forum meet up at the end of the month at DTD in Nottingham which should also be a good crack. Suppose to be going away with the bird next week as well as its her b'day but nothing booked yet, were thinking either Turkey or Egypt atm, i guess i need to start grinding, sigh. Life's good, laters fish.

Yet Another Overreaction

Made back all yesterday losses and i am now in profit for July. I am such a fucking plum! Get a grip Jones one fkin time. You are a such a penis sometimes! Srsly though, i need to calm the fuck down. I've been playing this stupid game for 5 yrs, i know the score, i understand the variance in poker and i have experienced many ups and downs but i still let minor hiccups affect me. Fucking plum Jones.

FML!!!

New month, new start, new plan and same fkin bullshit. Just played a decent sized session and ran about as bad as poss. I ain't gonna comment too much on my new goals but they are pretty well thought out, realistic, rewarding blah blah blah and i am gonna try and stick to them despite an absolute tezza start. FML kju.ihugyuytydriygttrr. Im off to go and guess some more muff's and wank myself to death. Good job i ain't seeing my bird tonight because i am feeling that aggro and tilted up right now I'd probably kill her with my knob! loiuytrutrertkyuipoijukytrtw.

The Epitome Of Laziness :-)

Played a bit of PLO $50 hi/lo on PP this afternoon for a couple of hrs just kinda learning the game tbh and really enjoyed it. It's the second time i've played this varient of poker since Vegas and this time i won about $200 ish to add to the profit i made the other wk. I might play a bit more later if i can be bovved but i have just sent Kennl $600 to play for me so i might chill out instead lol. I've got a 10% share in just about everything he is playing today which i think includes 25 mtt's on FTP, 14 on Stars, 2 on PP the 25k on 888.com and the 100k on Everest. For those of you that don't know Kennl is one of the sickest MTT fish around. One timeeeeee pls Kenn!!!

Sorry about the lack of quantity and quality of my recent posts btw fish, but i have not really had much to write about so i thought i'd spam the shit outta my blog for a couple of extra bucks. If you have had enough of reading this load of bollocks then i have found a much better blog for you fish anyways. Go check it out, its called http://www.guesshermuff.blogspot.com/ I have spent a bit of time there browseing myself. I think you'll agree its a cracking 'read'

Some Fun Bets

Went out with Greekstein on Saturday night to watch the London Masters at Wembley just for summat different to do and had a few small bets each game with that degenerate fish. Basically we backed one team every game taking alternative picks unless it was the team you support, me West Ham and Greekfish Chelski. If your team wins the match then you get £20 plus an additional £20 if one of your team members scores a hatrick. The only other bet was an extra 20 nugs if either Westham or Chelski win the whole tourn. We coulda/shoulda done a load more sports betting to make it more interesting but that was it. Greekstein is so fking sick that if he'd had his way one of us would prob been stuck £5-10k by the end of the night so we kept it friendly. I had first pick and choose QPR to beat Fulham and the R's pissed it. Next game Greek had Chelski by default and they got done and i made another £20. In game three i forget who was playing but my team were up 3-1 and it was looking like £60 in my pocket but it finished 3-3. It the 4th game however Greeks team Arsenal were winning 3-1 and Mickey Thomas was on a hatrick but i survived the Mickey T freeroll and the game ended 3 a piece. The 5th game was also a draw but i won the 6th and final group game to go up £60 on the night when my Hammers beat the Goons. The final was between West Ham and QPR and i was looking at another possible £40 for a hammers win and overall tourny winners to take a nice little ton off Greek. The Hammers had a 1-0 lead with a minute left but fked it up eventually losing on pens so there was £60 swing and Greek only had to pay up 40 notes. It was a decent little night and i even took part in the action myself in the first game when i got my head on the ball after it was booted into the crowd which was greeted by a round of applause and a few shouts of sign him up, i still got it babay! I decided not to play online poker over the weekend mainly because i was too busy/hungover but i am kinda looking forward to attacking the games next week.
After the footie Greek went to the Empire and i think he was a little pissed that i didnt go with him tbh. Although i did fancy 3 maybe 4 hrs of some live pokes i didnt fancy staying there until the early hrs of Sunday morning mainly because i had been ball bagged the night before so i still felt a bit raggy plus i had a few things to do on Sunday. On Friday night i went out with the bird and Scotch and his bird for some nice munch in some Spansh joint and then a few beers in a couple bars. However, i got a bit carried away and ended up drinking much more than i had planned, I always fkin do that, i just kinda forget. Beers galore, double vods and Redbull, Jager bombs, arrrgh i love it. Apparently Greekstein finshed in the Empire at 9am on Sunday morn winning £750 so it was all good, laters.

Poker Junkie

Alright fish, i've not really played much poker since my last blog entry (surprise surprise) but i have actually been seriously thinking about my future as a 'full time' poker donk. I am not gonna talk about it too much in this post but i have made some solid plans for the 1st July onwards which involve setting myself some realistic goals which i think/hope will substantially improve my motivation to play this sick game. Some people have said to me why wait? Why don't you start grinding now? I just want to make a fresh start at the beginning of July that's all, i reckon it will make me more focused. I know i have been guilty of making plenty of new promises to myself in the past but i feel really positive atm, time will tell if i can log a reasonable amount of hrs and make a decent profit. In the meantime i am just gonna continue to bum around for the 10 days playing the odd bit of pokes here and there :-)
Since my last post i've been sleeping alot, hammering the gym, spending some time with the missus and surfing the net for good quality free porn. Whilst browsing the great world wide web the other day i stumbled across this really good poker site that i've never seen before, check it out. Its provides some fkin wicked poker coverage and is a very complete site imo. It has full reviews of all the major sites listing there strengths and weaknesses aswell as giving info on all the potential rakeback deals and bonuses that they provide. It has a nice little friendly forum which boasts a decent number of members and discussions on stuff like the best value tournaments and hand analysis for example. Poker Junkie also has its very own blog which covers everything that's being talked about in the poker world although its obv not as good as my 'superb' poker blog.
The site will give ya loadsa current poker news, some well written poker strategy articles and has a bunch of poker tools to aid your game like odds calculators and hand evaluations for example. One of the best things about Poker Junkie imo are the poker school videos that some top online players have made for the site. This is prob my favourite section as i think its always interesting to watch and listen to other peoples views on the game and how they play even if you don't agree with what they are doing. Anyways that's enough of bigging up some random poker site, there is tons of other cool stuff on there which i haven't even touched on, click the link above and go see for yourselves, laters fishays!
