City on FIRE. Man on ICE.

Before I get to the poker destruction that was this last week, I'll let you know about the chaos in Toronto. Last week Earthquake, this week Riots! The G8 and G20 Summit was here this weekend and with it cam a ton of protesting, as expected. She explains more thoroughly..


A few of the protesters got violent and before you knew it....



Although I live right in the middle of all of this, I wasn't really affected as I slept through most of it. I get home anywhere from 4am to 6am from my live sessions and was sound asleep while chaos was unfolding in the streets!

On to the poker chaos. Although the city is on fire..I'm fukkin cold as ice..

Finally got the sweat session in w/ Cincy_Swag today. We both just fired up 6 table sessions while the other observed and talked throughout the sng's and after as well. Seemed like we were on the same page when it came to specific spots or hands at certain stages. Anyway, it was fun and I think more of doing the same will be benefitical to us both. My run bad continued as I couldn't fade an 8 to save my life. After gettin crushed by 8x hands I actually ran AA into 88.. u know the rest.

This was a horrific week of poker for me. Everything that could go wrong did. Tuesday through Thursday I got my ass handed to me by some of the biggest fish in the city. I got it in with sets, flushes, nut straights, and over pairs only to have opponents catch up and crush me. I had 4 losing sessions in a row. After Thursday's session, I felt really bad about everything. I lost my confidence and started thinking like a loser. Should NOT have played Friday, but I did. I didn't play well at all, getting it in bad several times. Here are some hands....

Hand was straddled to 10...



















Yea.. tired of posting losing hands so I'm gonna stop. Anyway, this type of shit happened all week.

This was the only good thing from the week (6.50T SNG).



Really looking forward to a quiet and profitable week. This city and I need it...

Peace. 2.
