the end

just flushed my entire roll within 30 minutes. Feel absolutely sick right now. Lost a bunch of hands at nl10 and went nuts. Opened some heads up nl100 & nl 50 and yeh the rest is history.




There were 2 key hands: all in with kk against AA - http://www.pokerhand.org/?2556069

Seriously cant believe he fucking called. biggest pot i've ever lost online: http://www.pokerhand.org/?2556071

Well its the end. To be honest i've wasted so much time lately on poker its probably a good thing. My uni results have been dropping and i have been spending less time with my friends etc. In the end unless your making 50k plus a year from poker or you can limit yourself to how much play it really isn't worth it.



Back!

It's been a fairly crazy week or so pokerwise. I had grinded my roll upto an all time high of $270 when disaster struck. In the space of about 20 mins i had KK run into AA 3 times, losing all 3 (obv). This was combined with a few other coolers. The net result was a loss of about $60 and raging tilt! Unfortunately the majority of the hands i logged on my laptop so no hand history, however i continued my tilt rampage on my main computer, playing some nl50 etc and a few crazy sng's:





At one stage i was actually down to about $130. Fortunately i managed to win the above sng as well as a bunch of $6 hu sng's (about 8 out of 10!). I even cleared my bonus and thus was able to finish with a roll of about $250.

I took a break for a few days but yesterday decided to make a fresh start in May with my $250 roll. I have made a number of rules for myself:


1. 3 buy in stop loss. NO MATTER WHAT!
2. Only play when you are feeling mentally with it! (No drunk poker!)
3. More hand posting on 2p2
4. Really think about each decision!!!
5. Update tracker & Excel after each session!


WIth this in mind i played my first session last night and almost had to enforce rule 1. I was $29 down at one stage but really wasn't playing badly. Fortunately i got a set of 8's all in against TPTK for full stack and won a few other smaller hands to finish the session down an acceptable $13.35
