Brudel scenes

So i wake about 4.30-5 in evening, ready for the grind ahead starting around 5.45 on Ipoker. Get up, get a shower and make myself a fruit salad for breakfast.(lolsalads, i no). I then realise i have like no clothes clean, so i put some washing in and the washing machine starts to go fucking mental. Its like ridic loud and its moving all over the place. Im abs brickin them so go and turn it off. Theres water all over the place too, but ive gota leave it. Its like 5.40 and my donkaments are guna be starting. Fk it, so left it till after the grind.

I then reg'd for everything and was investing like $450 total, 1 time let me get a score. Got off to tez starts in the 2 Stars torns i was playing, getting it in with AA vs KJ and AK into KK in the first level or so and losing. So that wasnt ideal. The ipoker torns were going ok, and i started to get chips in one. It was the 6.45 $22 5k. Eventually about 9 i got to Final table after as crushing it from 25 in, and was 1/10. Then me and the guy in 2nd got in a huge pot. Blinds are 1200/2400, and he makes it 7200 in 2nd position. He has around 60k total and i have around 67k. Ive got QQ and make it 22400, it folds around to him and he insta moves in. I pretty much snap call and he has AK. Flop 9 6 2, im like plzzzz hold. Turn As. My life sucks, and im absolutely fuming. River bricks and im down to 6k. Move in next hand with my last 6.5k or so with 910c and called by KQ. Flop Q high and i brick out in another poor 8th for like $155. Im really pissed off and wonder why i cant win the 1 that really matters. 1st was like 1.5k and would have helped immensely for the roll. But the grind has only really begun, iv got all the 10-12 starts to play and need to get re-focused for them.

Im really annoyed, but play good and start to forget about that. Got stacks in a load of torns, but busted like 20th-40th wen 20 paid etc. Got some chips in this ridic turbo torn i reg'd for on Party, the $6 2k 6 max, first was like $600 with like 500 runners. Anyways, to cut a long story short, i busted 4th for $154, 88 vs A10. Only other torn i really had shots in i came like were like the 4k on Ipoker and 5k on Party. The 4k i busted 21st for some shite. Moved in on BB for from SB with 44 for like 28k at blinds 1.5/3k and he thought for ages then called with K10d for his torn life. wtttf. Flop bricks but as per the turn comes 10. My life sucks again. First again was over 1k but fk it.

Didnt really get deep in anything else tonight, cashed in a few but nothing to write home about. I invested like $520 and cashed for like $425. So again like yesterday,it could have been so much better, But then again could have gone ridic worse. So im only like $100 down for the day and i can still afford to carry on taking these kinda shots. If i totally brick it one day and lose like $400-$500 ill obviously like stated in other posts drop back down to the $4 180s on Stars. Really dont wna though and i feel im pretty close to getting some decent kinda scores.

Anyways must dash its 5am and havent eaten anything since the Salad earlier. Got a pizza in oven probably burning and fucking burnt my hand putting it in. Im running good at life stuff too! Duno what we are guna do about the washer, we're only here for another week or so, so we'll probs just try and survive on the clothes we've got.

Laters, glglglgl.

Norrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Been just generally hitting MTTs in last few days. Mainly Ipoker, Party and then the odd ones on FTP and Stars. Brent came over for a massive session on Tues night as he wasnt at work Wed and not in work til late Thurs.

Tues night, i just played a load of 180s on Stars, was playing pretty well and was hopeful of some results. I ended up busting loads of them around 20-35th and didnt cash in any. But didnt hurt the roll at all, as most of them are only the $4 ones and thats fkall.

Wed Night, decided to grow some balls and put in a full session of MTTs, i deposited $$ on Party and Ipoker ftmfw and was gna hit most of the stuff i could really. I ran bad at start depositing double what i wanted on Party, not sure how that happened. but it did. Nvm.
Started at like half 5 and reg til about 12. Got stacks in some early torns and everyone else was coming towards the end of the sesh so i unreg'd from stuff from like 10.30 onwards. Another reason was because i was deep in the 6k on Ipoker and had chips. I ended up getting it in with 4 left, with A3 vs A2. He obv hit the 2 on the river but nvm. Cashed for like $500 in that and about another $60 in sumat else. So not a bad day, but coulda been much better. 1st in the 6k was around 1.7k which would have been very sweet for my roll.So even though it coulda been better i was happy with the day and had made $$. I was looking forward to Thurs night and putting in another full sesh. Lets gogogogogogogogo

Thurs night, slept for soooooo long from like 8am til sum ridic time. Started to play at 10.15pm and reg for stuff til around 2am. Total $$ i was investing was around $350-$400. First 2 torns of the day went abs terrible, the $55 7.5k on Ipoker, i basically got it all in 3rd hand with AK vs AA, on K high flop. My life sucks, then insta on other table i bust out like 4th hand KK vs A5c all in pre. Wtf he was doing with A5 all in there, i hav no idea but its lolipoker and its standard. Anyways, thought this was pretty comedy, altho i was kinda fuming. Didnt let it effect me though and continued to grind hard. Towards the end of the sesh, i had stacks in like 3 torns on ipoker and things were looking hopeful. They were the $33 10k on Ipoker, $16.50 4.5k and the $7rebuy 5k. I finalled the 4.5k but busted out early with Aj vs KK. Couldnt really do much, i was SB with AJ and 38k. Blinds 2k/4k and 1 guy limps, i obv shib it in with less than 10 BBs here and the limper wakes up with KK. I basically draw dead on the K J X flop and im out for around $124. Oh wow i think. But im still deepish in the 5k and 10k with stacks in both. 1 time plzz.But i busted 33rd with 30 paid, for a huuuuuuge pot with JJ vs AQ in the 10k, Q str8 out, and i think fk my entire life. Still in the 5k though and have around 40k, i get blinds down and blinds are now 2.5k/5k with 15 left. I get KK on button, obv move in, BB thinks, then calls with AK, im like wtf u thinkin about. My life sucks and A str8 out and A on turn and im drawing dead. Out in 15th for $50, pretty terrible.

Thurs night could have been so much better though, so although im down around $200 on the night, im not too unhappy as if i ran better towards the end. The results could have been so much sweeter and a massive boost. But as i roll, it didnt happen and thats how MTT's go sometimes.

Had some degen bets on Wed Night, mainly all on Sweden, not really sure why. But they all lost and i busted the last $$ in my Stan James account.
PaddyPower account has been suspended as they want proof of ID, ffs. So much effort and i dont have a scanner or anything, so guna have to wait a few weeks b4 i can even touch that $$. Pretty ghey as i wanted to have a biggish bet on Croatia tonight and cba depositing on SJ account. But maybe thats a good thing and the Croats wont win.
Might have to support the Germans from now in. As ive got Germany in a sweepstake with mates and get around £80 if they win. Shib it. Although i wont mind if Spain or Croatia win it, cos that'd be huge for them.

Right, thats it for now. Will be grinding hard in next few days in search of some big results, if not, it'l be back to the 180s to grind grind grind. 1 time plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Laters, gl all.

MTT win #3

sennnnnnnnnnd. Played a bit other day, got involved in a few torns whilst kicking it watching the footy. Ended up taking down yet another $5 donkament! Went to final 7/9, then got HU with a 3-1 disadvantage, ended up turning it around. Only around $300 again, but just want these small wins towards the MTT Challenge.
Numero 3

Other that this, im not really played like full schedules. Im enjoying just kickin it like 1-3 tabling whilst watching all the games. Done the same tonight, LeKnave is jsut sat here with a full on sunday schedule and im jsut watching/betting on the footy. Its incred. Signed upto PaddyPower as they give you a free £20 bet if you place a £10 bet, so i did that.
My bets were:
£10 bet on Czech first corner - shib itttt
£20 FREE bet on Koller anytime scorer at 11/4 - shiibbbbbbb it.
Had $$ on Czech/draw which was looking good for a decent while, but what a game!
Im out, update soon.

Another MTT win and Betting on random S***

Played a bit at the weekend, more on Sunday then again another decent seshion on Tues night.

Sunday> Brent was here grinding and we had a decent set and were looking forward to an immense grind and watching/betting on the footy.
LeKnave and Sledge were going down to the £200 at DTD, though 1 of them would do well. They did, kinda. Leknave came 6th, but only top 4 paid as only 32 runners. Ul imo. I kept getting stacks in torns and wenever i got a shot at going deep etc i jsut ran bad. Brent was here and he was running bad, and couldn't believe how many times i got it in with KK and lost for huge pots. It was so sick. But thats how it goes somedays and uve just gota take it on the chin and if your playing good enough the results will eventually come.

Tuesday> Me, LeKnave and Horneris were part of a Blonde Bounty Torn, and whoever knocked us out got T-shirts n stuff and the hilarity of knocking us out etc. It got an amazin 48 runners or something and i played like a douche and came basically last, same for Brent. Then LeKnave just kept getting it all in dead every single hand and winning, he eventually got a huge stack and then donked off towards the end.
Started to enter torns on FTP, around the $5-$26 range from like 9 -1 or sumat. And got amazin stacks in about 4 torns. Then decided to go deep in the $5 and two $10 torns, the 2 $10s were like 1k ftw and like $700 which would have been nice, but ran bad towards the end and came like 17th and 25th. Then i was doing pretty sweet in the $5 torn, ended up going to FT 7/9, but did pretty well to accumolate some chips and ended up taking it down for only $300. But ill take it and it goes towards the MTT board on Blondepoker, so i now got 2 wins on there, first to 12. But im ahead! sennnnnd. Just my luck to run good in the 1 with the least amount FTW, but ill take it and hope to keep winning little torns here n there.
Still waiting for my FTP $$ to come through, its been about 12 days or sumat ridic, and i wna get playin on ipoker and FTP, but cant til that $$ goes thru.


MTT win below ~





Euro 2008 bets


Had some decent bets at the start of the torn and was a decent amount up, but ive donked all that off on stupid bets just wanting to get involved in every game possible and losing.

Brent gave us a nice little 8/1 tip on a horse, had a 5e/w ftmfw, and it came in first so shbbed like £50 there. Then next day had like £40 on Croatia to beat Austria which also won shibb. But as i said iv donked all the rest off.

Got some acc's still on the go, if Germany Bt Austria(and they should), ill have like +£40 locked up, and i need Spain and Italy to win next matches and thats about another £70, so got some prospects. Got a few quid on Villa top Scorer too, so thats looking ok. Hopefully Podolski doesn't get any tonight and Villa's got a decent shot for top Scorer ldo.

Havent got any bets on tonights game. If i did, id probs just have Germany/Poland double and a Draw/Draw double or sumat. And Germany HT/Draw FT. But these are the bets ive been doing for abs no reason really and losing. I think the Croats are also hugggge at 5s vs the Germans, not on though.
Update sooooon.

MSOP and Prop bet News

Havent played that much tbh, just played some 180s other day but only broke around even, Running terribly towards end of them. Then played the MSOP 6 max and the $26 9.5k KO.
Just ground it out in both pand eventually got a stack in both. The MSOP was ridic soft and was so comfortable jsut popping it evryhand accumalting a huge stack. I got to around 60k at one point then dropped back down. Then lost 1 huge hand AQ vs sb's reshove with A10. Board K 10 2 4 10 was good for him though. And i was down to 20kish. Then went ridic carddead and cudnt pop it evryhand as my stack was terrible. Eventually busted around 130th, but for so long it was looking good and was in top 10 for ages. Was also fuming half way thru after losing huge pot to go 3/4 of 70 in the 9.5k KO, with AQc vs 1010 Blind on Blind, so brudel.

Had a comedy small prop bet with Dave LeKnave Jones this morning. We played 4 $12 180s on Stars and 4 $11 90 manners on FTP. Person who cashed for most or best finishing position wins. Loser has to buy winner a load of shit from Costco, which we are going when it opens in like 2 hours. Its incred.
Brent coming over for the grind tonight which will be fun, and after il lolown his soul at Pro Evo

Lets gogogogogoogogogogo

Just put some bets on for the Euro's, will post them up later. Nothing huge just small bets here and there for railing purposes and others for valooooooooo.

Laterssss

MTT win and other stuff.

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, so i finally won an MTT for first time in a while. Lol, so it was only $250 ftw, but got first 1 on board in the MTT Blonde challenge. 1-0 me. Then Flops comes along and takes down the turbo fiddy and Jonesy takes down the 17k this morn. My win just looks even shitter that it already did.
Can only play on Stars and FTP atm, as im still awaiting the money from FTP to go through to my bank. Playing the MSOP $16.50 6 max tonight. I feel ther'l be a load of donks in this with no real idea for the 6 max game and will just be all round terrible. Hopefully i can get a nice run going in it and go deep once again. 1 time FTP.

Looking forward to this wknd, Brents coming over for a grinding sesh online and we are all gna generally lolown it. If not, ill just have to own him at Pro Evo after for srs wonga imo. We were going to go play pool and bet on loadsa shit, but thats not happening anymore so nvm.

Pretty bored right now, waiting for a torn or 2 to start and looking at the betting for Euro 2008 whilst playing the new SoccerManager game online that Scottc off Blonde set up.
Can't make any bets, because as i said waiting for $$ to go throught really.

Will post in the next day or so with updates.


  • Gl Jones at DTD £300.

  • Shib the 3rd WSOP seat Middy, u own.

  • Sledge, keep going the results will come

  • Brent, lets dooooooooooooo this, this wknd.

Been a long time...

After inspiration from Horneris starting up his blog again/me doing well in a big torn im going to start blogging often again.

The reason i haven't blogged in so long is that i eventually went busto, bills and rents etc eventually caught up with me and i could no longer play poker on a regular basis. E.g smashing the Party/Ipoker torns ridic hard.
Loadsa people have been saying, why do you enver blog anymore, and i just say, because theres nothing to say and it'll be ridic boring to read. I no thats wrong, and i should just keep updated on my overall life, and if im playing anything at all, just to blog about it.

So...the other day i was pretty busto, and going to look for a job on Monday(Yesterday). LeKnave had just been shibbing me money to on Stars/FTP to play the odd torn here and there.
THEN he staked me for the MSOP $16.50 Buy in with 5318 runners, absoulely absurd amount of runners, and me and Jones were laughing at how big the field is and not really taking it seriously. Eventually i started to get some chips together, it was brudel. I was 1/44, 1/15, 2/9 etc. So chipleader for quite a while, i won my fair share of flips, which is what uve gota do to go deep in something like this. Eventually we were down to 4-5 players, i was gt'd a decent sum, and was up for winning this big time. 3-4 handed i was so card dead, couldn't find any spots, and blinds were ridic, i cudnt reshove with air, as i didnt really have that much fold equity. 3 handed i got it in with 77 vs K10, 10 str8 out, and i was out 3rd for 7k and change. Which at the start of the torn i wuda been delighted with, but was amazingly gutted i didnt take it down afterwards.

Screenshot of it below:








So even though i cashed for $7k, i had 2 ship LeKnave 3.5k of it for the stakng, which was pretty sick. But gotta thank him for staking me and gettin me back on track again. Also that night, not massive in comparison, he staked me to a load of 180s on Stars, and i made a profit of just over 1k. Which is sweet, having only played like 10 $4.40s and 9 $11s. Had to ship LeKnave half of that also, but im happy with a $4k night, and its start to build build build.

Past few days iv played some MTTs, maybe too much but im just happy to be back playing again. Only lost around $100-$150 after a few cashes, in last few days so nothing major on the BR.

Ive had to pay Jones the £400+ i owed him for some bills he recently paid, and iv gota catch up on latest rent. So after everythings paid, im left with just over £1k. So a roll of around $2k to play with.

Im planning to just grind the S*** outa some 180s on Stars to build my roll into a decent amount. Then start plying MTT's regularly again.
Hopefully i can stick at the 180s till we move into the new balla flat, then have a big enuf roll to go for it on the MTT scene. Will just be grinding a $500 roll on Stars for now and see what i can griiind it into.
Going to keep a bit of $$ on FTP for the rest of the MSOP Series, as although FTP wont let me run good again, i obviously enjoyed the torn and hope to ship it in another one of the torns.

3 big shouts for:

1)Middy(hitthehole, online): for staking me a while back to some 90 seaters on FTP, ran good in first load i played for him, then decided i would run amazingly bad when he staked me for a decent amount. Anyways, hes won 2 WSOP seats in last week or so. Have a ballin time, and ship home some crucial money plz.


2)LeKnave on the MTT challenge win, sennnd it. Win the next one too imo. Gl at DTD this wknd if you decide to go. Win it plz.


3)Horneris on getting back into the MTT scene and doing well recently. Also succeeding in your Betfair challenge,turning £500 into 3k. sennnnnnnnnnd.


Going to be having a few bets on Euro 2008 over next couple of days, so will probs post them up.


Will keep posted everyday or so.


lets doooooooooooooooo this 1 time.

Sooo lazy in feb/The March grind imo.

Im basically mirroring what LeKnave said in his blog. I won a decent amount playing in Jan and wanted that to continue. But then came February, i had no urge or desire to play properly and solidly like i/we did in Jan. In Jan, i would spend most of my hours playing online and shibbing the monies. Maybe cos i had a goodish month i didnt feel the need. But i did need to. So in Feb as i hardly ever played im up no more than £1! Around 20p to be precise. shib it. Id be lying saying i didnt play at all, but when i did i didnt play properly. The two times i tried to put in any sort of session, and i won a donkament. The $11 PLHE Rebuy on stars, only about 80 runners, but won like $800. Also the 2nd in the $44 reg on party as mentioned in another post for like $800. These wins were crucial for having a plus month.
Oh yeah, that f****** prop bet, i think this ruined my/our months for playing online too, that was just terrible. I lost around $800, but i spose it was good fun and other ppl enjoyed it. But it did no favours for my online game and desire to play.
But its a new month....
March im hoping to play solidly and amazingly like i did in Jan, play all the time and stick to Party(donks), Stars and maybe a bit of FTP. Been playing a couple of nights into March and its been going well, im back to playing good and solidly again. Have been starting to get frustrated lately, i have shots at winning things, then lose the big hand when i need to. I thought it was all guna come together last night. I ran terrible for the whole night. E.g All in Ak vs AQ, Ak vs K10, Set vs FD etc(you know the score) everytime i lost. Then the last couple of torns i was going well, the 5k Party and the 10r on party. $2.3k and $1k ftw respectively. I was in good shape to have a shot at both. But it wasnt to be, i ended up coming 7th for like $350, which helps. But still not what i wanted. I ran bad on the final, popped it up 2 hands with 22 and K10 both on Button or Cut-off, both times some1 reshoved all in. And cant call that. So i did the same back, SB min raises my BB, i shove with q10d, he makes the call for most his stack with a4! fk my life, gg. Then the $10r, well basically 14 left, i get set over setted with 99 vs jj. nvmmmm.
But the good thing is ive had shots at winning and i no the results will come, i just gota be patient.

Got a home game tonight in Colton, to finish our TPT off that we started like 2 years ago. A series of 20 games, but we never got to 20 and been stuck on 19 for ages. I should make the final, which will be arranged at a later date.

So lets dooooooooooooooooo this in March.

Tuesday, 19 February 2008

Its official, im SHIT!

lol. Maybe not, but maybe i just ridiculously bad towards the end. Whenever i got in spots to take sumat down, i ran amazingly bad. I know this happened to the other 2 so i cant use that as an excuse. Anyway i played from 5am til 2am, only 21 hours, but i feel carrying on in the way i was playing, would have gone nowhere and no point playing on, just to try win the bet if ur guna lose more $$ that you could win if you did actually win the bet. Especially when i was playing that badly towards the end.
Anyway LeKnave took the bet down, wp to him. Even though i was ahead for around 10 hours of the bet, i ended up losing around $600 on the $180s and then another $200 to Dave for the bet. Was pretty gutted and annoyed but it happens.
I thought i wouldn't wna play for at least 3 days after the bet, being worn out etc. But surprsingly i played yest and decided the $12 45 seaters on Stars were my best bet. Not sure how many i played, but i ended up around $300 up last night from them, shib it. So grinding my losses back form the other night, gna play some more of them today and see how they go. lets gogogogo.
Also on spin up news, i logged onto my FTP account and found out i had $9 in there, so i went on a spin up, doubled up in cash to $17, then bought into a $11 6 max torn on there and did terrible, well, i flopped the 3rd nuts and some1 flopped quads on me, and i was out within 10 mins, i run good. So i had $6 in my account, went up the levels in cash, and ended up losing a $300+ pot with QQ vs AK and A10 in $1/$2. So fkin brudel.

Anyways, ill do another blog soon and update you on the latest. lets gooooooooooooooooooo

Weekend update and the Challenge...

Ok, so i decided not to play the million. Cba with 8000 runners, but i did play the Warm Up, 300k and FTOPS 8. The 300k went pretty well, and i got a big stack, highest point of around 67k. Then got involved in a few hands, also lost AQ vs JJ, so went down to around 48k. Then bluffed off a bit down to 30k, and ended up shoving with A10 on Button, running in2 the BB's KK. ah well. Finished 137th for $487th. But coulda been more, nvm. The Warm Up, never really got going for me, couldn't get anything going, and ended up losing a flip for a double up with AK vs 99 and went out pretty early on. I enjoyed the FTOPS 8 event, as it was 6 Max, and was confident. Took a KO early on then lost my stack with Q8 in the SB on a Q94Q3 Board. Maybe i played it bad, i bet the flop, checked the Turn and we got it all in on the 3 River, he had 33. Not really sure about that one. Apart from those torns, nothing really happened on Sunday for me apart from odd cashes, best one just a 13th in the 5k on Party, nothing special though.

The Challenge:

From Sunday morning at 5am till Monday morning 5am, me, LeKnave and Horneris will be doing a challenge or Stars here at the flat for 24 hours str8. We will be playing all the 180 seaters on stars throughout this period, the $4s, $12s and $20s. The winner will be the one with the most TLB points after all are over. We thought this was best, as if u did most $$ someone could just stop playing after a certain amount of wins etc. Whereas TLB points mean you HAVE to keep playing to keep ahead of the game, if ur winning. We'll all be putting up around $200 and winner takes all. Hopefully we can all still make a decent profit from this, and the $200 wont matter if you lose, plus its going to be comedy. So towards the end of this week, im guna be preparing, playing the 180s a lot, seeing how they go and get used 2 playing a high volume of them. Maybe play for periods of 8 and 12 hours just playing those. Saturday going to Costco, to stock up on Red bulls, Lucozade, Cokes and food, for the ultimate sesh.
Lets gogogogogogoogogogo, and GL u 2.

Last but not least, were going down DTD again this thurs for the £55 F/o. Hopefully do something this time, and not misclick all in with 24ish left!! Hopefully quite a few Blondes down there again to catch up, and maybe SNGS or Cash game after, we'll see.

Shout out to the Andrew 'FTM' Priestley, who got a nice little cash under his belt last night. Came 3rd in a torn for around $1k. A good cash for him, he hasnt played much online in the past and has just mainly been a on/off home game player but has wanted to get involved more online and get some kinda win under his belt. It finally came, shib it to him. Wp m8.

L8ers, will update l8er in week.
