Shitty couple of days

Getting terribly unlucky the past couple of days.  Profit should of been at around 350 for the past 2 days but instead its -200.  Why??? because when you cant have a 4 to 1 hand hold, a coin flip win, or suck out to win you are fucked plain and simple.  The variance is a bitch in these sit n gos but im still on pace to make at least 1500 if not 2000 after i run the 500.  Might run  tourney tonight, really need to kill one for a couple thousand so I can go back to running cash games.

Find time this week

Gonna run a 3-4 hour session tonight to try to put some volume in.  My goal was to run about 40 games today  but I felt like complete shit from the weekend so I just chilled. Hard to focus on poker when Im at school but Im trying to fit it in to the schedule.  Goal for the week is to knock 150 games out by thursday and to make between 600-700 profit.  My internet at my house is also shitty which has been an issue

Gettin fired up for sunday

Long drunk weekend. I hate running hung over but will probably run the 22 1r1a that I won for 6 k the first weekend back in the fall and hope to do it the first weekend back  again in the spring.  Hope to knock out around 50 sit n gos today but will only run 3 at a time I guess if I run a tournament.  Need to have a solid score today, I should be ranked in the sit n gos by tommorrow for sure for total profit for 2009.  Met my goal last week to make 500 for the week, and actually made over a k. Will post tonight on todays progress

Day 2

I ran about 35 today, up about 300 on the day. Ran decent but bubbled in like 8 games getting sucked out on.  Wish that could be eliminated but I guess its just part of the game, just more so online.  I'm planning on making at MINIMUM 2k in the next two weeks with the goal of running 500 sit n go's. This is completely attainable if I stay disciplined enough to run just the 25's.  For now I've decided against running any tournaments until I am at least up a thousand from these. It is super stressful and I would much rather be running 8 tables of cash games again, but I gotta build the roll back up some how.  It was nice having 6k in the account for a while. Hittin the bed, headin back to school in the morning.

Day 1 of the 25s

Overall still on a shitty run. Made a decent profit today but no where near as much as I wanted to.  Ran 30 today and ended up with a profit at least, but bubbled in about 6 crucial ones because I'm not flipping well at all.  Im going to run 500 of these over the next 3-4 weeks hopefully for a profit of 2 k if I can start holding when I get it in good. At ABSOLUTE worst I should make 1000 dollars profit or I'm going to be giving horrible publicity for the pokerstars website because I am convinced I am a top five sit n go player on the site for the stakes I play, if not the best.

Back to work after a long weekend

Took a much needed few days off to party, traveled down to DC pretty sick time.  The roll is beat, and I'm stepping down from 39s to running 25s for a couple of days while I get through this bad run I'm on.  I don't really have shit to do this week so I think I might head back to school while no one is there to get some shit together and have no distractions.  Gonna try to run 7-8 hours a day putting in a pretty large volume of sit n go's and might run a tourney here and there.  Switching from 6 tables to only 4 tables because I think it will ultimately be more profitable and I'll be able to put more focus on my games.  Might run for an hour or two tonight, will post profits made daily, setting a goal for 500 dollars this week which might be a little high running the 25s but I think I can make it if I put the time in and don't run like complete shit.  Not moving up stakes until I make 500 dollars at least and start running a little better

Back to work after a long weekend

Dagger

Shitty shitty run the past few days (weeks) get pissed off and decide to run 2/4 cash game (sober)today  which is rare and also something I obv should of never done . Well lets say i pissed a good portion of the roll flopping a straight in a 3 way pot against 2 sets. standard pokerstars set up hand needless to say they both boat on the river for a $1300 dollar pot. Woulda been nice to take that down but instead ill probably just take a few days off from poker as Im pretty much pissed off at myself and the game.  Im gonna need a solid score within the next few weeks to boost the roll back up or I might be F U C K E D

RU fucking kidding me????

Soooo, standard I pretty much ran like shit all day.  Did decent in my sit n gos, up close to 100 on the day, which is no where near where I want to be.  Ran a couple tourneys tonight, including the nightly 100k which was way to big for me to be running with my current roll but had 2 friends running it and wanted us to all have 10% of each other so I got in.  OUT IN THE FIRST TEN MINUTES. Made it 120 to go pre flop and the button called with 8 9 of hearts.  You know I got those aces in the pocket, one of which is obviously a heart.  I def created a bigger pot that should of been created, committing myself to call a shove on the turn to a made flush.  Also go deep in the 11 1 r 1 a 10k guarantee and BUBBLE running tens into aces and nines into aces back to back.  STANDARD procedure late in a tourney for me over the past 4 weeks.  I have had stacks deep in several tourneys and ran big hands into bigger ones and never been on the opposite end in the situation to give me a boost late in a tournament.  I've played only a handful of tournaments since my 6500$ win in september placing 1st in the 22 1 r 1 a on a sunday. Since then it's been a shitty run in tournaments.  After cooling off a little i decide to run these stupid 12 dollar 180 man turbos. I run 6 and swear i witness the worst hand win when it comes to push fold time 95% of the time. WTF???? these things are retarded.  I load up four more and tell my friend/partner i'm gonna win one of these things before bed.  Wutta ya know 345 am right now and im going to bed pissed off.  O no... not that i didn't go deep in one, I was way to focused not to crush one of these guys. Im super aggro. at the final table as I go into 3rd in chips.  there is about 5 players at the final table that dont realize this late in a turbo tourney you are not SEEING flops, it is all in or fold, so I chips up about 40-45k in chips jamming in decent spots.  I get three handed and really turn the heat up and jam into the big stack with kq suited.  Well ive ran too shitty all day to not hit right here, and turn a queen to take a massive chip lead. About three hands later I am heads up with player 1minorthreat, who is conveniently a losing player, and the LEAST of my worries going into heads up.  WELLL we go into heads up and im pretty sure he only has double the big blind in chips (ill post a hand history of the final table in the post) but to be exact, starting heads up I have 253090 chips and he has 16910 which for those of you not good at math is 14 times his chip stack.  ILL BE DAMNED IF I DONT GET IT IN WITH ACE JACK V ACE DUECE AND HE FLOPS A FUCKING DUECE!!!!!! o it gets better... I standard jammed from the button every hand jam jack six and am insta called by 4 3? hold? FUCK NO! anyway too pissed to really post anymore about this you'll have to just read the hand history to see my  get it in and lose 8 for 8... run good when it matters? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??? haha helllll no
better post tomorrow hopefully...

Starting off 2009 right

I've been trying to focus on the ways to make more money more consistently online.  I have decided to commit a minimum of four hours a day to grinding 39 and 25 dollar 6 handed sit n gos with the goal of making 2k for the month of January.  My bankroll is a little thin for the time being and I'm not completely rolled for the stakes I am playing but considering I have been ranked top ten in the world several times in 2007 for these sit n gos I think i'll manage to grind it up to a full roll. I would of liked to start out with 2k in the account but I needed to cash a g off for Christmas time and upcoming rent. Updates to come
