Havent updated in a little while ...been really focused on playing and getting better...

Im running really well , or should say playing really well. I am happy in my play for the first time and think I will probably be a majority sng player. Maybe when pt3 + hud comes out ill try my cash game again....

Im about 45 fpp from clearing this bonus on stars so once that happens I can get back to my routines...

so lets let the cards and the play keep coming!

oh ps i have a snow day today you should be jealous ...

So I had a decision today weather to go snowboarding or go home and play some poker and rest up. See I am starting to feel rather tired/achy and I dont like it. So I came home and fired some tables up...on the day i am +41 in sngs so after yesterdays cash debachle i feel better about that...

And I just broke the 1k profit line on sharkscope...yesss

So I think i am done with cash for a while...At least while Im bonus bashing on stars. I seem to rake the FPPs in faster and win more money this way...Cant get to many FPPs playing nl10.....Besides the last 2 nights of beats I have recieved from that level are just out ragous and very frustraiting...

put it this way -$45 in cash games..

+150 in sngs so i know where my profit is going to come from....

more later if fucking stars gets their shit together....

about damn time this shit turns around and just in time for me to bonus bash this bonus on stars....

even stars knows im running good...i misclickd preflop...figured he was bluffing when the turn came...and pot odds said i had to do it hahaha...

So I just got done putting in another win ...I played the stars 27man sng out of gut instincts..it was filling up quick and something just told me to do it..I have only played 2 and this is my second one....They are much quicker than the 45 man obv and the competition didnt seem as good. Not to say the competition at that level is good to begin with. But with 2 tables left in the 45 man it just seems tougher so I'll go back at it tomorrow....

and of course...

LETS GO DUKE!

I put in a nice 50$ profit yesterday, least itll break even the shit run i had in janurary after the 11th....

Ive gone busto out of 2 sngs so far playing my 3rd right now and its going standard boring till the first break...

Im also looking for a coach, one who wants to use what they've learned and pass it on to someone else because they want to you know? Probably the whole reason I am a teacher for a living, the giving back part...the best part....so the search goes on...

lost comes on thursday...its going to be great

so JAN has come and gone and I am up 2 buyins...I am not very impressed by this due to the incredible card rush i had in the beginning of the month (see earlier blog for rigaments later in life) and the cards are not just going my way....This makes things frustraiting when you are clearing a bonus...

but alas life goes on...things are looking good for the rest of the year. I just bought a 19 inch LCD LG monitor. PokerTracker3 looks sweet on it as well as the AHK HUD that __Dave__ has made for it...so lets hope with this new found desire and the right equipment Ill be able to reach my poker goals this year...

Lost comes on tonight which I am wicked excited for...the show is incredible to say the least...

so feb goals....6k hands 3k at nl .02/.05 and 3 k at nl 10 beating nl10...if i can get comfortable at nl10 ill put more money on FTP? as well as clear some sort of bonus thing offered by pokersourceonline....

for some reason the converter is messing this up

they're all 45 man sngs and the K10 is the 5k 5$ mtt on stars..

so life hates me right about now....i cant win a flip in poker

i have a burnt up power supply in the desktop i am trying to restore..

i am restoring the desktop for 2 reasons...1. I hate playing on my laptop partially because it has to many distractions

and 2 its going into its 3.5 year mark ykes

so the desktop is a oldie but goodie and runs like a champ ...

i have restored the new asus mother board. an UNLOCKED amd athlon 2400+xp .1 gig of pc2700 ram and a radeon 128 vid card....i use to play a lot of online gaming..so i know a few things about increasing computer performance.. and it would be a good ocmputer to just play poker on and have my database run on that as it would be the only processing minus web browsing chatting etc i would be doing ...

but a las with how things are going right now the fucking powersupply seems to be shot to hell because my mother board power light isnt coming on...

hopefully going home this weekend should straighten this little dilemma up ;-)

this is fucking unrealll

i dont know how you guys can go on swings of 20k like its no big deal...this is just unreal...this pot makes 5 buy ins peaced out...
