…if you get kicked in the junk over and over and over and over again. That’s pretty much what happened tonight…I won’t exclude some nice hands of mine (quad Kings, etc), but I won’t show any screenshots as I was too tilted in those moments. Tilted holding the likes of quad kings? Yeah, pretty much sucks if you hold the chiplead and push it in good to very good (e.g. AK vs AQ) and lose, yet again to a fucking three outer, the hand before you get another monster…then you get no action on your quads etc…pretty tough to keep a cool head there…

At least I’ve seen a royal flush again…three handed…nice cooler…at least I was smart enough to stay out of that hand…

So I quit the night loser, again… and I don’t like it one bit…so fugly…apropos fugly…random fugly pic dump for your “enjoyment”…

I’m outta here…

Log on to Stars, play NL HE headsup and lose, lose, lose, win, lose. No matter if you put your money in 50/50, 60/40, 80/20…lose lose lose…

Next stop, FullTilt, Friday night blogger rebuy donkament. Play like crap…get lucky twice sucking out back-to-back straights, once with the hammer, which was obv g00t. After that catch no break whatsoever. Push in with Ax vs KX four times, win exactly 0. Push in with KX vs Ax and win exactly 0. Fitting enough that one of the above was my exit after Island rivered a ten on me (JT vs my QJ)…that was basically the end right there…I guess I should have pushed on the flop, but the way I was running tonight one of my opponents would have had the ace, no doubt 😉

Random fugly pic dump…:

The only good when it comes to poker was that my question about chosing the hammer for his “donkey bomber outfit” was asked on anteup episode 119…big shoutout to Scott and Chris, keep up the good work! I’m outta here…

Just a little session again, not that much time for poker these days, but oh well, what are you going to do? I ran into a pretty “good” player in PLO8, he managed to hit a lucky river 5 times on me in 4 matches….4 of those were really big pots and I sat in disbelieve how he could hit again. But oh well…what can you do, nothing much. At least I managed to crush some donks in NL HE going 3-1…so slightly up for the night and I’m outta here….

Read Smokkee’s blog and find out that tonight is another bodog blogger tourney. Check bodog where you haven’t played in almost a year. No money. Check Neteller, money sitting there…reload…jump into tourney. Dodge bullets left and right…river some nice hands (no all-in pots)…crack Aces headsup with a straight on the river (all-in after the river)…flop quads headsup…etc…W…add 60$ + 50T$ to newly reloaded mini-bankroll on bodog…

Big shoutout to smokkee and TripJax…cya all soonish…

In all honesty, I have never ever seen a session like the one today. NEVER. This is ridiculous. How can I have ppl all in drawing to one-six outs thrice and lose all of those pots? How can I have twenty outs+ twice and still lose to a two-outer, twice (Top two pair + good low draw + straight and flush draw; just to see my opponent hitting a two outer J/7 to make trips over my two pair with no low). Are you fucking kidding me? God damn it. I’ve never been so tilted…so I guess I better logout now before I break my laptop and uninstall PokerStars…so sick…

Take the pic above…the dude is running “super hot” (courtesy of sharkscope) and I felt it. First I get him down to 450 as he’s chasing longshots all the time. Then I double him up on a cooler (Q-high flush vs K-high flush), then we get it in again as I draw to twenty outs…I miss twice…surprise…he’s slightly ahead…this time we get it in on the turn…he’s drawing to one deuce, three treys and two fours…so the whole six outs again (or add one six, four sevens and eights and four aces for half the pot) and yes he hit the good old one-outer quads…why can’t a god damn 9-K come up there and I scoop…so sick…I’m out before I break something…

Edit: Chasing losses is fun…ran into one of the most annoying ppl on PokerStars ever. He sits down at my HU razz table and he clearly plays in over his head. He plays the whooping amount of 3 SnGs and is taking the full time on EVERY decision. I get slightly annoyed and tell him to stop wasting ppl’s time, if he can’t handle three tables he should stick to two or one…what a moron. But guess what, he coolers me in two consecutive big pots (he’s behind till sixth street, catches the miracle on seventh, surprise surprise). After that one I almost exploded, took a little stroll and went back to the table and knocked down some donks. 2/2 in PLO8 and 3/4 in NL HE. At least I got some of the money back…but still down for the night….oh well…I’ll take it…insane how unlucky you can get in the short run…but oh well…back soon, hopefully with a better run…

Well, well…made it back just in time from our little drink-fest to join the rebuy madness festivities…no joy though as I couldn’t catch a break…no matter if worst hand or best hand, I managed to lose 99% of them…so…I decided to quit after slightly over half an hour…at least I donated the buyin + 14 rebuys to the donk-community…no three-peat…oh well…cya all next week…

Short random pic dump…

Well, well…just a little poker session again…two PLO8 matches, 1W 1L. After that I was pretty bored and saw that there were DS satellites for tomorrow’s WCOOP event #1. 8,8$ a pop with 36 players, first get’s the ticket, 2nd to 4th get 20$, 5th 13$…good deal, let’s get it on.

The first table was easy…always nice to hold a cooler early on and have someone push into the nuts. I held AA on the button…LP pops it…I repop him, he pushes…I call…he shows KK…rockets hold up. Nice. A few orbits later a really loose push-happy donks raises 5BB preflop…I look down at the s00ted K8 in the bb and decide to call…if I flop gin I have all his chips, if not I fold and lost 150 chips. Flop comes down three diamonds…gin…I lead out and he does as expected…push…insta-call…he’s drawing dead…cya….I bust another player and then my headsup opponent when my JJ holds up…

I waited for the final table to start and once it did I made sure I chilled out until the first one busted. I still picked up a nice pot early on with a little flush over flush hand…and once the first player busted I sat pretty, second in chips. Once we were down to three-handed I made my first mistake pushing TP into an overpair (KK)…I sucked out on the river…new chipleader: me. I busted the third player and we were headsup. My opponent wins a few hands and he’s the chipleader. Grrrr….I make the next mistake by pushing K3 into K9…d00minated…3 on the flop and I’m monster-chipleader again. Ouch….that was the same player with the Kings cracked on the river. I double him up again. I’m still in the lead and when I look down at presto…I decide to pop it and call his push…presto gold and I’m the winner…

As I can’t play in the event tomorrow I unregistered…

Uuuuuuuh W$…not good…I could use them to buyin into one of the WCOOP events I intended to play (e.g. Razz), but then again…who knows if I’ll be able to play…so no use having them sit around in my account (too bad it wasn’t T$ then I would have used them to play SnGs again)…so I look around for a place to sell the W$ and the best spot I found was the pokernews exchange…and all I can say is: praise, the transaction took under 5 minutes and I’ve got the money (89% = 191,35$) in my account.

So…all in all a wonderful session for me and a nightmare for my headsup opponent…no chance in hell is what he had…and I know that it wasn’t because of my flawless play, but because I got lucky in two big hands (76o vs KK, K3 vs K9), which means he got unlucky as hell…oh well…I’ll take it (and whine like crazy the next time shit like this happens to me) 😉

…in other news: spent another 500FPP for a black PokerStars shirt…now I can switch between my PPA, FullTilt and PokerStars shirts for my live appearances…wheeeeeee….

Just a little session tonight again…PLO8…won 5 out of 7…NL Hold’em 1 of 2…PLO 0 of 1…so overall a good session…favourite hand of the night…runner runner quads against me…loved the turn…hated the river…

…off to the bad news: I forgot that we have our first booth party of the season (my footie/soccer team parties like there is no tomorrow in the dressing rooms of our club house)…so I guess I will be hammered by the time the Rebuy Donkfest (TM) is about to start, so I might not be able to go for the three-peat after all….pause for celebration of my esteemed opponents 😉 ….oh well…maybe I’ll make it back in time to play it in drunken donkpush-tastic mode…we’ll see…

Wheeeeeeeeee….another week, another rebuy donkfest proudly presented by Kat. and another King of Rebuy Donks title for me (third overall). Back-to-back baby! Next stop three-peat 😉

The play is mostly a blur, I just know three things:

1. I didn’t win a single coin-flip during the whole tournament (0/4)…until I won one…in the last hand…99 vs AQ…flop 9….and I’m the champ

2. I sucked out in a major pot during the rebuy period…jackAce s00ted against AK against AK…I flop the nuts (diamond flush)…that hand really catapulted me into the tourney…

3. It’s good to hold the best hand when the money goes in for a HUGE pot. It feels even better when it holds up…(two big hands on the final table were KK vs JJ all-in preflop….and K8 vs KQ…all-in postflop on a K8x board….)

Alrighty…I’m out…time to catch some sleep…enjoy the random pic dump….

Today was one of the uglier sessions, not results-wise as I was wise enough to quit after just four matches, but in the overall “coolness” of the matches. I played PLO8, PL5CD and one NL HE HU match and the theme was the same in all matches.

PLO8: Start with A2xx…flop A2Q…turn A…river 10…most of the money is in by now…opponent holds AQxx…etc etc

PL5CD: Start with two pair…opponent starts with two pair…opponent hits boat…start with set…opponent starts with flush draw…opponent hits…

NL HE: Dismantle opponent, pick up bluffs, etc etc, then watch cooler after cooler…two outer on the river (T8o vs 55…flop 8xx turn x…river 5)…two outer on the river (62o vs A7…flop 667..turn x…river 7) …etc etc…

Fugly…but oh well…at least I didn’t let it tilt me…right back at ‘cha soon…
