April Round-up

Well April has been a little bit of a washout for me poker-wise. I started off strong, but then never really got going. Not too fussed as I guess we are gonna ahve those months sometimes and I have been doing so much work on the house and at work that I really just haven;t had time or been in the mood when I sat down.

House is ready for the market, we had the valuations at the start of this week and are just getting a few quotes together for the HIPS (fucking Con too IMO). Once I find a decent price for that, that doesn;t have any dodgy clauses, I'll get it sorted and the house should be up before the middle of next month.

Ok so poker results:

CASH GAMES:

Microgaming: 9894 hands for $81.09 loss, but $319.19 rakeback = $238.10 Profit.





TOURNEYS:

Microgaming: 5 x €20 5 player SnG's for €50 profit ($66.50)
Pokerstars: 7 tourneys for $5 loss
Full Tilt: 11 tourneys for $143.10 Profit

OVERALL: $442.70 Profit

Newcastle Poker Tournament Weekend

Been looking forward to this for a while now. Should be a top craic with relentless piss-taking throughout. The group of lads going are a top bunch, so it should be fun.

I wanted to link to my last Newcastle trips report, but it was on my old blog, fortunately I do have a copy of the report, so I'll post it here so I can return to it in future, it makes me laugh even now.

I sooooooo hope Mr Miyagi is there this weekend.

Newcastle trip report






from Donkey Thrasher by BurnleyMik


Well returned last night from a great weekend in Newcastle and it really was!!


friday night got all my stuff together and ready to rock n roll. Only thing was I couldn;t get to bastard sleep! I tossed and turned for a while, knowing I needed to sleep as I would have to be up about seven and Saturday was gonna be a late one and ended up watching a film, The business, on my laptop in bed..doh! Finally got over about 3am.


Next thing the alarm was going off.. man I hate that sound! lol. So I got up and raring to go got my stuff together and set off to pick up Phil (Bullmeister). Honestly that fucker nags more than the wife. I was due to pick him up at 7.45am and was about 5 mins behind when I get the phone call.. the pillock immediately sets the tone for the weekend and gives it “sorry mate, something’s cropped up I am not gonna be ale to make it” hahaha. Thing is, as those who have met him will know, he has a very dry sense of humour and it’s hard to tell if he is kidding or not. Luckily he was just taking the piss as usual and was just keen!


So off we set and head off through Yorkshire to get to the A1. Journey was steady enough and traffic not too bad, so it only took us about 2 and 1/2 hours to get there.


We landed at our hotel “The royal”, which was an old style Inn. Whilst waiting to check in I get a call from Snake who is absolutely pissing himself about how bad the hotel, if you can call it that, is that him, Amatay, Cogs, Pud and dD are staying at. It was likened to a place of that film, Hostel! hahaha. Even the fleas were looking to move at at the earliest opportunity!!! Snake was contemplating moving to our hotel, but then decided to sod it off and stay put.


Me and Phil got our rooms and to be fair they were basic, but clean, which is all we were looking for as we knew we’d only get our heads down for a short time. We dropped off our stuff and decided we needed a bit of scran. luckily there was a butty van virtually accross the road, so after a Bacon and egg and a bifter for Phil we were ready for action!


The plan was to meet at Hammerheid and Ant’s hotel at 12pm and then all make our way to the casino. So, me and phil jumped a taxi to the Rooms Inn Hotel, which took some finding to be fair! We got there about 11.40 ish only to get a text that Stan was running late. I didn;t have Ant’s number, but the desk clerk at his hotel provided me with that…lol. I thought they weren;t allowed to give out details? Well this guy would have given us Ant’s room key had we asked!! lol.


Once I belled Ant, he was running late too! I then rang Snake to see how those boys were getting on.. ffs, they were running late too, but at least they were in newcastle! According to snake, Amatay and nick were not in the best of states after their night out around the Toon the night before. haha. I finally made a call to dD and guess what? YEAH..lol he was running late too!! hahahahaha.


We decided to make our way to the casino and told the rest we’d meet them there when they arrived.


Anyways, after a mission into Newcastle to find a cash machine, me and Phil finally met up with Cogs, Snake, Pud, Amatay and Nick. Was good to finally put some faces to the forum names. It’s always strange when you meet someone because they are almost never like you imagined!


Firstly Knightmare Nick - He told me he needed an XL shirt for the meet, so my first impression was he would be a big lad and also with the way he banters on the forum, I thought he’d be pretty loud. Instead I met this skinny, quiet ginger kid! Actually, he was only that quiet cos he was rough as fuck from the beer, but as soon as he spoke, you recognised that podcast voice from anywhere!


Cogs- Actually talks like he types on the forums! Saying fuck My Life and stuff all the time! There had been pics of him on the forum, so i sort of knew what to expect and apart from him being an angry bastard (I’ll explain more later) he was pretty much exactly as i thought.


Snake - Not sure why, but I expected snake to be a tall fella, well built (as for the rugby) and for some reason i had it in my head he would be wearing glasses. Fuck knows why..lol. He was actually shorter than i thought and built like a frickin tank! top bloke though and one thing i would say about Snake… NEVER get into a drinking contest with him!


Amatay - Just as i thought TBH. After reading his blog all these years and talking to him on MSN and the forums, he’s exactly as he comes accross. laid back as fook! In fact if he was in another life, he’d have to be a Jamaican


Pud- I have met Pud before and he’s just as insane as ever! His sense of humour is still as funny as fuck.


Anyways the 7 of us, set off to find them some breakfast as apparantly they were to scared to eat anything at the flea Pit! First placce we walk into and there is a guy sat at the bar, with a sleeveless shirt on, giving knightmare nick the eye! For some reason i wouldn;t have felt comfortable asking for sausage in that place! lol. Luckily, they were out of breakfast stuff… haha. All the puds and bars and we walk straight into a gay bar. BTW, that was Cogs’ choice


Finally find a place and they had a bit of scran. then it was back off to the casino to meet up with dD, Ant and hammer.


Back at the casino, we all meet up and we get registerd for the event. After that it’s just a case of standing about, taking the piss out of knightmare Nick for his “two pints and pissed” malarky and waiting for the seats to be called.


We eventually get into the game. I take my seat and decide i am playing the first hour pretty loosely, just to try and get a good feel of the table and get involved. My first two hands, i raised with AT and Ax and get no restance, but then it all goes a bit tits up and I keep getting dealt utter shyte, like J4. There are at least two calling stations on the table, but also maybe two players who seem pretty good. My initial plan goes to shit and i end up staying fairly tight.


I then get into a big pot with one of the calling stations, on a King high flop. We end up splitting when we both showdown AK ..fml! I then start to spew chips in frustration when I start taking flops, in position, with all kinds of shitty hands and just completely whiffing every flop. Thankfully we get to the next break and i get my head together a bit.


After that break, i changed gears and stopped calling in position and started raising more, but now i was also hitting flops well too. i.e. one hand i raised from the CO with Q5hh. Flop came 3h4h6s, giving me a top draw, I check raise another guy off the hand nicely. I build the stack up, without a double, from about 5k, upto about 16k, just playing a lot of small pot stuff. it actually felt good, my reads were right and my bet sizing was also good.


I liked this table a lot, but then I was moved to another table and the first hand on that table set the tone…


blinds 200/400, folds round to big stack who opens to 4k…lol. yeah, his opening raise it 10 x BB. This happens with at least two other guys. 3 of them, whenever they opened, it was 10 x BB. there was also a shitload of ridiculous over-pushing on rainbow flops, but nothing I could do as i was missing everything.


I made a couple of decent moves to pinch pots i didn;t deserve, then with my looser image i raise with AK from MP and the button pushes all in for about 8k. I insta call and he has AJ. Sweet. Of course though, with live poker being fucking rigged, the flop is QxJ and no help on the turn or river. I was so pissed off. playing well to maintain my stack and losing like that sucks.


So with about 8.5k left, I got into another pot. basically a tight guy, who I had just seen making a move with K9 raised for the second time in a row and so i blasted over the top of him with 88. unfortunately he had QQ and I don;t get a suckout. I am now crippled to about 3k with blinds at 400/800 and open push 66 UTG. Of course i run into big stack who has AA. Fuck lve poker! lolololol.


So that was my tourney over. I think i went out with about 80 or so left.


After that, i just wandered about having the odd dabble at roulette and 3 card poker. As well as watching lots of the all-ins and keepin an eye on the lads that were left. It was funny though because everywhere you went you could hear someone whining to some other poor bastard about their bad beats!!


I watched cogs at a cash game for a short while and kept delivering the beers to those piss-pots, snake and Pud! had to keep the lads fuel tanks goin. Cogs was getting angry as fuck about some guy who had called a ruling on him, in a pot where he had lost like £40 or something. he was also then telling me he wanted to launch himself over the table at some guy who was pissed at his tourney table too! hence… MR Angry!


Pud finally bust out trying to chip up or call it a day and exited just in the points in 50th. he then joined cogs at the cash game, eventually I decided to join and tbh i am glad I did. it was the funniest thing i have ever seen at a poker table! The max you could sit down with was £50. Directly to my left was a complete moron, who was so full of shit it was funny, but even better, accross the table was the most insane chinese fella I have ever seen! do you remember a cartoon character called Penfold, from the cartoon Dangermouse? well he looked like a chinese version of him. he had some Dennis Taylor Specs on and a fag, the wrong way around behind his left ear and a chewed up anorak.


honestly, everytime he was in ahand, he;d jump up and down, bang the table, point at people and chunter like crazy in chinese and funniest of all.. he loved ANY two cards!! I would say the guy really was on teh borderline between sane and fucking nutz.


anyways, i played a pearler of hand where I caught a bluff, when i only had king high. you can read about that HERE, the guys railing were absolutely pissing themselves!!


During the game Pud kept turning to me and asking if he taken any LSD because he couldn;t tell if this chinese guy was for real! LOLOLOLOL


Then came the hand of the night…


the chinese Guy (mr miyagi) and the Bullshitter got into a monster pot, on a board that read AAJJ7, bullshitter put in a bet of £60 on the river. This meant there was probably about £200 in the pot at that point. Mr Miyagi was up and down, he couldnlt sit fucking still. he kept pickin up his money and putting it back down, he was pointing at bullshitter and chuntering something, he’d pick his money back up then put it back down, he really was totally undecided. Eventually he folds, but he ain’t happy about it and then BOOOOOM, mr bullshitter, shows him 63o. Well thts it for Mr Miyagi, he hits the fucking roof! I swear i actually saw him internally combust. he slapped the fucking table , jumped straight up into the air, grabbed his fag from behind his ear and then put it straight back. he basically just fucking melted right before our eyes and then BAM he was off accross the casino floor! i swear to god i thought he was going to smash up the bogs or that he would be around the corner chewing on a table. That really did nearly send the poor bastard over the edge!


After all that though, do you know what the funniest thing was? it was the fact that Phil had seen his cards and Mr Miyagi had 84o!! LMFAOOOOOOOOOO. That said he would have won as his 8 kicker was good!! lolololololololololololol


Absolutely fucking classic.


Anyways, we finished up our beers and headed off back to our hotels. I think i finally hit my bed about 4.30am. next thing i know it’s 8.30am and my alarm is going off for breakfast.


I met Phil in the breakfast room and none of us could eat propely for laughing our bollox off at the miyagi show. Honestly the other guests must have wondered if we were a few slices short because we literally had tears in our eyes reliving the hand i mentioned about. Superb.


We then went back to our rooms. i got washed up and cleared all my stuff out of the room. We then decided to head nto the City centre and pick up a gift or two for the Mrs’s to cheer em up and ease our guilt for fucking off all weekend.


We then went back to the casino and had to laugh as Amatay, Snake and dD, our three remaining boys all sloped off to their car backseats to try and get an hours shut eye before the game re-started!


Ant, Nick, Pud and hammer all set off back early Sunday morning, all for their own reasons and me, phil and cogs stayed to bit of railing.


There was lots of ups and downs as Snake and Amatay got involved in a number of pots, both getting lucky and unlucky equally. Eventually, dD, the short stack ninja (man he just can nurse a short stack well) made a cracking effort and exited in 26th ( i think it was) .


We then had Amatay and Snake left and it was about 4pm, so me and Phil decided it would be best if we made our way home as it was unlikely we could win the event and with both being so tired, driving at night would have been a nightmare.


Cogs kept us upto date with all the goings on and at one point, Amatay had a very good stack, we actually thought he might go on to win it from there, but the poker gods had other ideas and he exited in 11th spot just before the final table. the good news though was that snake DID win a monster pot and went onto the final table well chipped up. I was trying like fuck to find latest updates from NPF, but apparantly they lost connection and eventually found out Snake had bust in a hugely respectable 4th spot for £200!! SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP.


the points were then calculated and RTR had managed a 3rd spot finish for another £1600, so thats £1800 total, split ten ways as we all agreed prior, plus snake got a fiver off each of us for a last longer bet.


Congrats to the Snake on his awesome performance and also to amatay, dd and Pud, who also scored points for us!


A absolutely top weekend was had and we also have a couple of extra quid in our pockets to boot!!


A huge thanks to everyone who turned up and played.


roll on the next one!

Lull

At the moment I am in a bit of a poker lull. I just don;t feel like sitting down and firing up loads of tables and grinding away. I think I've only played about 8k hands this month. Part of the problem is that my rakeback was wrong for the last two weeks of last month and I am still chasing that up to get it sorted and the other part is the demoralising feel of the roll being depleted.

I am sure I'll get the urge again soon, but for the time being I haven't played too much poker, just spent a bit of time working hard on my Xpert11 teams (I love this now I have gotten into it properly, it's strategic as hell!) hoping to get to the top division with my Hibernian team, gained promotion with Rosehill Clarets, Currently in 2nd in the huge geaue (division 5:26) or something daft lol and just taken over a 4th team at Halifax town! lol.

I might actually set a private league up if any of you guys are interested, it's pretty good fun.

I also donked around at a few of the new rush tourneys. Played 4 of the $4.40's and managed to bink one for ~$150 and played a $26 one, which I finished 9th in, just hit FT and ran JJ into KK.

I'll be playing the bloggerment tonight and the APAT National League game and might play a few stars SnG's alongside.



see ya there

Roll takes a hit

So life stuff has gotten in the way meaning I have had to draw $2k of my roll, which is a sickener, but I am still rolled for NL50. With the wife not working and living costs seem to be getting higher and higher we haven;t got as much disposable income and as such the roll is having to pay for a few jobs on the motor, a few things for the house before we sell and spending money for the hols.




I'll still be playing my usual NL50 game, but not as many tables as I am trying to adapt to a more aggressive style of play, which is quite fun ATM actually. it's one of those where when it goes right you win big, but when you miss everything and people don;t wanna fold to your continued aggression, then it can cost you, so I'll weigh it up in a little while and see if it is profitable and if so is it more so than my original style, with the new style I basically:

  • 3-bet a shitload more from CO and BTN (looking for 13%+)
  • C-bet a much higher % of the time (currently 65%, looking for that to be nearer 80%)
  • Increase CR's OOP.
  • Call more Blind 3-bets with position and put them under the cosh (as long as they 3-bet more than 9%)
  • Isolate more in position with a wider range

The reason for all this was my trip to NL100. The aggression up there was much higher and I found it really hard to play against until I started adapting and I realised how much more profitable it could be if used profitably at NL50. It's not easy because you need balls of steel and be prepared to 3-barrell if you feel they are weak etc.


Looking forward to my poker right now.

Good Luck at the Felt.

Limbo


Just not sure what to do right now. Just ran 4-buy ins under EV in less than 600 hands. I'll not even bother telling you as you've seen.heard it all before. The worst thing for me was when I had two big hands at once on two tables, a Str8 flush drw with 8sTs on a 9sJs Ad board and an aggro donk leading into it and flopped 2 pair vs a nit I had on JJ+/AK and my laptop froze up. I actually watched myself gruesomely time out on both tables and there wasn;t a fucking thing in this world I could do about it. I lost the plot. I am basically taking stacks on both hands a good 70% of the time.

I should have stopped there and then, but instead i took a few mins to cool off and went back to the tables only to drop a buy-in to a spazzy fish when I raised btn with QQ, SB (an aggro reg) 3-bet me and fish flatted the 3-bet of BB. So I made it €40 to play. SB folds and fish shoves. I am delighted until I see he had KK. FML and totally fuck this night. I then go and retard monkey tilt spew another €100 off with TT, which I just played absolutely ridiculously bad.

I feel awful. I just hate poker so bad right now.

I am only left now with 3.27 of the original 5 buy-in buffer i deposited to play NL100. I am at a loss as to what to do, I don;t wanna drop str8 down thanks to one cold night, but dropping €100 stacks is affecting me, without a doubt.

meh who knows, I'll think about it again when my head is str8.


***Morning after night before*** - Still feel shyte, but apart from the super spew with TT I didn;t do too much wrong and have to take that away from it. I just got very unlucky for pretty much the whole night. Nothing you can do about those sessions.

I just wish Microgmaing had more $$$ tables rather than €€€ tables because it fucks your BRM up.

Plan now is to drop back to NL50, just until I get my next rakeback payment on the 15th and then I'll take another shot.

Saturday 10 April 2010

NL100 so far...

My startegy for NL100 is different to NL50 in the simple fact that I no longer need quantity for decent rakeback, instead I can focus on quality. Instead of my 7 tables, I now play 2-4 depending on what is available.

My first few days went really well, I was hitting and getting paid on my big hands and all was sweet. A few winners in a row and in no time I am over $500 up...weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

That was until, yesterday when it all came crashing back down and in two sessions I dropped about $400 total. Not doing much wrong except my aggression cost me quite a bit with missing about 95% of the flops I raised pre. Not a single set hit, etc etc, the standard stuff, but it definately fits the theory of "eat like a bird, shit like an elephant". It takes a good few days to build it up and a single one to pretty much wipe it out! lol.

I did expect it to happen sooner rather than later so it's no big shakes, I'll still stick to my original rule that if I drop below my original 5 buy-ins I just step back down.

The Grand National was a bit of a sickner. Black Apalachi was there or thereabouts for almost the whole race and looked to be in great shape about 3 fences out until Mccoy made a cracking run at it over the final fence and BA just couldn't find enough to close it back. I had a tenner on the nose, so sweet FA back!



A big congrats to Burnley on picking up their first away win of the season, crushing Hull 4-1! I still think Laws is shyte. :-)

Hope you all have a good weekend and enjoy this sunshiiiiiiine whilst it lasts.

Grand National Day + bets

16.15 today, the big one, the National!

I have had a dabble in this race for as many years as I can remember and I still always look forward to it. Obviously it's a bit of a lottery, but thats the beauty and the draw of it IMO, if the favourite romped it most of the time it would be pointless!

Ok so been reading around and having a look and I have decided on 3 horses:

1. Black Apalachi £10 on the nose @14/1
2. Cloudy Lane £5 Each Way @ 33/1
3. BeatTheBoys £5 Each Way @80/1

£30 wagered, looking for a nice ROI :-)

Good luck to any of you who have had a tipple.

Taking a shot

After being a NL50 donkey for a few months now the BR is at a point where I can afford to take a shot at NL100. TBH I haven't really felt comfortable enough with my own game to properly attempt this previously, but being careful, I have set myself a simple 5-buy-in stop-loss at which point I drop back to NL50.

I moved some cash back to Purple Lounge to give it a decent go. My main rule is not even attempt to play more than 3-4 tables until I have decent notes, reads and confidence to play my A game.

I played some the last two nights and so far I am up just over 3-buy-ins and I am not kidding myself , I know it's because I ran pretty well, including getting set over set on someone.

The aggression levels seem to be a lot higher than NL50, especially pre flop, with more 3-betting than I have encountered before, but I have adjusted to make sure I am 4-betting a bit lighter and being prepared to play them with position when I can take advantage of it.

So basically at the moment I am just being very cautious. I won't be scared money because I can afford to drop the 5 buy-ins and still be very comfortable at NL50, this is just a case of dipping my toes in and testing the waters before making a decision on whether to dive in.

Let me run hot one time poker godssssssssss!!

On a none poker front - I had to order a repeat prescription at the docs last week ( I have Asthma) and I went to pick it up yesterday and took it to the chemist and was charged over £22 for 3 items. How shit is that? For medication I NEED I get charged through the arsehole as well as all the money I pay in NI from my wages, yet if I lived in Wales I would get my prescriptions for free. It makes no sense to me, we all piss in the same pot, but yet if you live in England you get screwed even harder by this peice of shit government. Was probably worse because the young guy in front of me was getting his for free (most likely he didn't have a job).

So once again, if you work ,you get fucked over. Sigh.

Anyways politics is shyte.

Hope you run good.

Upanddownaments!

Played just over 1k hands last night. I wasn't 7 tabling, just 3-4 most of the time as there just wasn't that many juicy tables.

Anyways it was up and down like a brides' nightie!

I started off well getting upto about $75 in no time at all, then it went tits up when my Aces got cracked by 5's and shortly after my Q's got cracked by 8's. Suuuuuper standard, but it dropped me about $70 down. I just stuck at it for a while and then it started to fall into place and without really winning any major pots I just won a ton of non showdown hands with plenty of aggression combined with actually hitting some hands!

Here was the graph for last night:


Was a fun night ;o)

On a none poker related issue, I have been doing some re-wiring in the house and I have never seen anything fucking like it! The hallway light switch had about 10 wires coming into it,all red! A total fucking mess, turned out it ran the house alarm, the upstairs circuit, the kitchen, the utility room, the landing lights. Took me absolutely ages to work it all out. Fucking cowboys who lived here previously, nothing was earthed ffs. So i had to go through the house checking all the electrics. I almost got a nice belt from it too at one point when I forgot to knock the mains off before attempting to try another configuaration!

Seriously people just need to identify wires so you at least have a chance. Older houses are a pain in the arse.

We are finally getting it all finished up with the intention of selling up and moving to a new area. Should be fun for sure!

Have a good weekend.

Easter weekend


The month started out ok, not really played too much until last night. Unfortunately for me last night I was on the beer a bit more than I anticipated. A couple of beers with my tea put me in the mood and I had alread planned a grinding session as Saturday is prime with piss-heads dumping their money (oh the irony). So I got the second monitor out and a raft of beers and proceeded to play. It all started out rosy, i was playing good and was up about $80 ish.

Unfortunately then I started getting pretty pissed and I should of stopped, but instead I started becoming one of the players I look for on a Saturday night! I missed two big draws for stacks and went of drunk-monkey-tilt and proceeded to 3-barrell with 99 on a T8752 board vs a rock player who had JJ. lol. Then I squeezed big with AKs in SB and BTN called me. I c-bet the JQ8 flop and he called an 8 on the turn and I just blasted..hahhaha. He only had Quad 8's...lolol. I then "ahh fuck it" called down with top pair vs a guy who obv had me beat (he had AA) when I had TPTK.

Note to self - Stop playing when you feel the effects of beer!!!!!!!!!

I managed to finish $160 down and most of it went in the last 25 mins of the session.

Oh well at least I have the rest of the Easter Weekend to look forward to!
