The Daily Grind of getting SnE

Update

2011-06-15T13:59:00.000-07:00

So its been a crazy few weeks since in Vegas. We had a crazy night the first night out here. We go to a club saying were only going to spend a 100 a piece. That turned out to be 500 for bottles at jet nightclub a lost id (nick) and another lost of 3k (nick) welcome to Vegas. The next morning we wake up and make a prop bet . For every time we have a drink we owe the other person a 100 per drink. The only exception is that we are with a responsible adult or if we win something huge. We have kept up to the bet so far.

Poker related news i have really done nothing so far in turns of money. I played the 1600 at the v to bust aks vr aks all in pre a few hours in. Then i played the 1k at rio and bust aj vr j6 all in on a aj6 flop. Last but not least i busted the 1500 6 max 77 vv kk with 20 bb. I been grinding the shit out of the venetian 2-5 game as you can buy in for 1k and the play is real good. Im only up like 1k but i started out be down 3k.

Pocarr news ......... :( we have officially announced we stop staking players. We will prob start back as soon as the us market can play again. To all the people who involved i am deeply sorry we had to go through this and wish all you the best. Hopefully we can all stay close so when we do have online we can make our site a preimer staking site.

I was plan on writing a long post but i have writers block. Hopefully i can write a better one later.

Vegas Home sweet Home

2011-06-02T09:51:00.001-07:00

So i finally arrived in Vegas on Tuesday. We get here have some fun fooling around and end up eating at a 24 hr cafe at palms. We got back to my friends condo and try to lay down but was mad uncomfortable so me and my aka brother head over to the rio and ship 3 nights until daddy George gets here for our condo. The next day we wake up and go get our rental car. Its so fen far and we wait forever. I wanna own one of these companies. They making 10k an hr no lie. So after this woman tries to persuade us to get everything and flirt with us ( she was like 80) we finally ended up with a red explorer. So drive back try to go to gym/pool but end up eating at the rio buffet. Nick and I didnt get our money worth but Josh certainly did. Finally get to play around 5ish. I end up losing my first 425 sng with 88 vr a/q then head over to 2-5 to lose a full buyin with q7dd on 732dd flop. He has 33 so i move to a 5/10 and the first three hands this guy blind raises 150. I get a/j in bb and i jam his blind raise and he calls with 85os. I hold back even. I play for another hr or so talkng to a full tilt pro about lots of things and then move to my buddy table to see how he doing. I grind for like another 2-3 hrs to make 700 at the table. So we leave and watch 25k head up match with durr vrs gus with 10 left. Dunno who won as we left to go eat and then sleep. Josh has a 5k today as i have the 1600 venetian. Im real excited because the field going to be super small and a good chance to start this trip off right. Well bout to go leave and play i finally got a twitter so i keep updated on there and try to keep it on here. Gl guys hit me up if your in vegas

Back Home for Vegas

2011-05-18T05:15:00.000-07:00

I was going to wait until the 26th to fly home before vegas but i came home sooner. Just miss family and friends to much. Canada was a very fun experience. I played 10-12 hrs everyday and didnt go out but still had a great time. Alex is a wonderful person and im glad i can call him my friend. Hopefully after vegas we can meet back up or im going somewhere warmer. Bahamas Costa Rica i have no idea. I be in vegas from the 1st until whenever i go busto. Playing a ton of events ( Bracelet one time )! Ok time to board .

Canada Eh?

2011-05-09T18:04:00.001-07:00

So I've been here since Saturday morning when we arrived in Toronto after a 19 hrs bus ride. Worst idea EVER! reason why we took the bus because we wanted to make sure we got through customs ok. Well we still got hassle but finally let us in. We had to immediately open a bank account so we could get stars there papers. Lucky for us TD Canada Bank was open and let us open two new accounts. We get home ship all the requirements to stars and wait. And then we wait......... they call us finally that afternoon saying everything look good but they had to send it to upper management? If i was space gravy i bet i would be auto approved. Since we figure there no way in hell its getting done on a Saturday we open up Party poker accounts. The client sucks but boy there support is the NUTS. Also the games are very juicy and i made around 800 since we been here. Ok back to stars i had an angel who work hard to get alex and my account open and thank god he did. We got to start playing Sunday and it fells so good to hear the stars beep. I'm not only in Canada for poker im here to get my health right also. To much drinking , dipping, smoking weed back in the states. Since Friday ive been clean from all that and SODAS. Also alex and I went grocery shopping for healthy food. That not all! before every set we have to do x amount of pushup and x amount of situps! I'm not trying to get big or anything just trying to get back in shape. I also ran today its freaken amazing!. Since Sunday im about even on stars like 1k below ev and made 7k vpps. I keep you posted on my journey here. Until then later EH

The Move

2011-05-04T05:54:00.000-07:00

Post black Friday post. These last few weeks have been very sad and very fun. I got my job strip away like the rest of you and my life. Ive been mainly playing live with some success but its nothing like the online felt. The rakes high, speed slow and you have to tip. I fell like if your not playing 10-20 + is not that profitable. While i made over 17k in the two sess i put in that stakes the game just doesn't run down here.
So now what i am going to do.............

Aye I'm going to Canada. Alex and I decided we must go while we still can print money online. Its a real bad situation for him as he has a family and will have to leave them behind. I have no idea what he going through. As for me i have friends and family but they all understand. I gotta go make a future for myself and there no better way then doing it with some of the best poker minds in the game. I think we going to have one more guest stay with us which i will announce if it happens. It will bring a lot more skill level to the house as he crushes the games he play. Im in the airport now typing this waiting for my flight to Maryland. From there were taking a bus to Toronto to rent a nice crib. I hope everything get figure out fast and were back online because Vegas is coming real soon. I be there all June playing tons of events then back to Canada. Wish us luck !

Live pro!!! Lol

2011-04-20T07:02:00.000-07:00

Well since the black Friday I've been doing nothing but playing live poker. I'm really disappointed I'n this whole thing since overnight I lost a
Job and a business. Things are best when you don't stress so I am Going to play it by ear. Well I've put I'n a few session of 5/10 and 10/20 and all I can say is wow! The quality play is like playing 10c/20c online. I'm up over 15k I'n last four days . Well i hope
This get figure out but until then hope my run good continues.

Oh April!

2011-04-05T21:54:00.000-07:00

Well March started out real fun!. Got to celebrate my 23rd birthday in another state with Alex, Lose a bunch of money live,cap,mtts and redo my whole game the last week. Since dropping back down to 9 tables I've been doing pretty good at 400nl. I just moved it back to 12 today for a few session to see if im missing any spots. Below is the graph on where i started 9 tabling and you can see what a different it makes dropping down tables.

All i can say is HOLY $@%# redline. Did i just become uber aggro? On other poker related news Pocarr is going great. We have had another winning month making it 4/4. I love our students and our coaches and i cant wait to hang out with them all in vegas. Also my Florida million tournament is coming up Saturday. I fly out of ft Lauderdale friday with no return ticket because i hope i make final table. There like 150 left where first is 100k . I update yall after tournament hopefully with the tittle OMFG

Florida Millions

2011-03-29T19:08:00.001-07:00

So since coming back from the travels i had recently bought a 550 florida million ticket for March 27th. There was a great turnout for our little poker room with 96 players and 10 advances towards day 2 in Jacksonville. I ended up having either 2nd or 3rd in chips and i thought i play really well. Some big hands i raise QQ utg get two callers, flop comes 10 5 3 cc and bb check to me where i make a 1/3 pot bet. Button folds and bb rr to 10k. At this point i had 90k in chips and he had about the same. I thought if i rr back and he shoves i can fold because i dont think he shoving a flush draw vrs me. So click it back and he shoved and showed 10s for top set. I run the table over for a little while and got into a huge hand for 200k pot a/ks vr qq for all the chips. I lose but i double back up shortly after to maintain a great stack. Day 2 is the 9th of april and first prob 90k so wish me luck.

Cap has been going good until today :) i drop down tables and been tearing it up. Im 5k below ev for the week but think fully only 2k down. I'm going to keep working on my game and keep adjusting.

Well cutting blog short because pocarr meeting will promise to update soon because im gonna rape April.

Gainesville, Naples , Poker

2011-03-22T20:38:00.000-07:00

So when i got back from my trip in Maryland i got on the phone with Erick and he invited me up to gville so off i went. On arriving he made me drive around town for a few hrs while he was getting some nanny but i didnt mind. So to sum up an pretty awesome trip hmm One night im playing beer pong and raping newbs ( willbec1) i won like 40 dollar from him lol and i didn't lose a game. We pretty much just chilled played some online pokerz ( i won wOw) and waited for my holiday to arrive. On st pattys i got wasted...stoned....wasted.....stoned.....wasted....wasted.....and did i forget to mention wasted? Erick and i littery bought out the bar with car bombs. I think i bought every college kid there a drink and still only spent 200. Its pretty amazing how in a college town liquor cheaper but where i am from if i go out i spend 200 just on me. So Friday rolls around and i got to a social with my boy fraternity. The ratio was litterly ( see how many times i can misspell that word) 5-1 girls to guys. We hung out for a bit then left to have more fun with sae back at saltys. Again bought everyone and there mother a drink and only spent 150. I end up leaving the next day because if i stayed i prob die up there.

On returning i go to naples to collect some monies owed to me. Remember that sunday where the million had 50k people? i prob sent money to 1/1000 of them. I got called by everyone to send stars funds so they could play. So i get to Naples at let say 1 am and arrive at my friends house. Any ways i was told i could park in this spot but when i woke the next morning my truck was gone...... Did i get robbed i ask hopping because the new f250s look so sweet. Nope i run bad at life i get towed and have to pay 160 to get it out. Wait thats not all its Sunday and my computer and everythings in my truck.... moneys ...id ......gum. So now i not only have nothing i cant grind poker. I end up getting it the next morning and the guy tells me nice truck. I was like thinks asshole while he counted the 160 ones i brought him :)I stayed there for only a day where i return back to my sister ( which is now pregnant im going to be an uncle so happy) i gotta return soon i still gotta get my stuff from my x's ( that going to be real difficult i still think about her and i hate hurting her but its for the best)..

Poker blog i forgot well i been doing a lot of new things with cap lately. Im back to winning at a small rate but ready to put in some decent volume as soon as my sister internet gets fix. Pocarr doing really good and i got another 9 man student . He look real solid and hopefully i can get him to crush some higher limits soon. Until next time good luck at the tables.

Maryland , Birthday , Friends

2011-03-13T01:22:00.000-08:00

So i've been slacken real bad with updates and im sorry. I've been super busy and been having a ball. So lets go back to bout a week ago when i decided to go to Maryland to see Alex msusyr24 Carr. Not only he is my business partner but i now consider him as a close friend. So on the arrival i bring him somthing special...my sickness lol sorry man. I got there around wednesday and after my arrival i soon found out two other very interesting guys were going to accompany us. Willbec1 and ufgator954. There both of our students or one is lol more to come but also now i consider both good friends. So picture this there are 4 of us in this one room grinding our lives away and talking stratigy and cracken jokes 24/7. Its awsome because willbec made my jokes funnier ( or atleast understandable ) and gators has great comebacks. Poker sucked real hard for me that week and while i kept getting killed in cap i watch gator win a 180 man every minute and willbec go deep in some big mtts. In the mean while me and alex had a coughing contest and i think i won( only thing the whole trip). We also did some other fun things than grind. We tried to play b ball but i lasted 1 minute (overstatement) and than i watch alex go somthing like 10-15 from the halfcourt. I lose a prop bet and had to pay half for lunch becuase i suck. We then went to DC and ate at a pretty nice bar. We tip the guy pretty big Brag lol well gator did and then discuss on how dangerous washington was while we walk back to alex car at 10 that night. My birthday was wednesday and the boys took me out. We ate at this seafood place way overprice and not that good and than went downtown. All i remember was Eric aka willbec singing birthday sex and the whole place was going crazy. Like every one was just chillen while everyone else sang but when eric came up the place went wild. Well we had to get on the airplane early the next morning so we didnt stay out late. 5 am rolled by and we got to the airport and my luck might have been changing becuase i got to change flight with eric (sorry matt pocarr only flight) and got a free roundtrip ticket so Alex here i come back to Fredrick lol. Since i've been back in Narnia ( Arcadia) ive been chillen with my very good friend Andy and having a blast. Tom i get to help my dad all day and Monday i prob head back to Miami to grind with uftratior.

Full of updateaments

2011-02-28T07:07:00.000-08:00

Well Feb went a little like this. Started off on a heater winning 5k online and another 5k live in about a week. Then shit hit the fan and couldn't win when cap games were brought in. I lost my motivation to play live and online and pretty much just slacked until i got some coaching for cap. I go on about a 8k downswing and wind up heading over to west palm to play the circuit event. I run over day one and play semi ok for day 2 two getting 22nd out of 900 in the first event. The others i just played deep and no cashes and wind up getting sick. I head home and found out im more miserable in Naples than anywhere in the world and i had to leave. Since my gf can't go because her kid i had to make a really tuff decision and leave her. We were together for 3 years and i know she hates me right now. Ive done this to her in the past and she doesnt deserve an asshole like me. So now im headed to Maryland to visit Alex and from there i have no idea. I'm going to put in a huge grind for march so i can make some paper.

Pocarr is going to have its best month yet. We had a meeting last night and still with no advertisement we have so many people apply. Its so awesome to go through applicants and pick the winners. After signing Bill (crazyhorse87) we also just signed Sean (SirCrafty) to the team. Real sickos for mtts and are roster keep getting stronger. Well i hope March is a good month for me ! After all i am turning 23!

Day 1 Event 1

2011-02-17T21:54:00.001-08:00

Before i start its 2 am and I have played poker all day so i wont proof read nor will i edit spelling errors so please forgive me.

Well today was a really fun day for me. Im in west palm for the wsop circuit events. Im playing all the no limit events ranging from 345-1k buyin. Well anyways today event started at 11 am with a 10k starting stack. I had a really nitty table with only a few bad players. One old guy went broke with kk on a 577 board at t50 so one bad player bites the dust. Anyways only hands i play that interested was i had JJ and a kid limp for 50 utg. I made it 225 to go from utg+1 and he the only one who flats. Flop comes 986 hh and he leads out 850. He had 5k behind and i felt like it was way to early to lose half my stack here so i folded. Few hands later i find a/qs utg and limp at t50. 5 people to the flop of a96 with one diamond i lead 200 and one old guy flats. The turn is a 8d and i lead 450 into him and he snap calls. Now i tought this guy was strong and that i only needed my dimaond to hit to be good so i was going to check call all naw dimaond rivers. Rivers an Ace and i check called his 1k bet and he shows 99s full lol. So with around 9k at t100 i made it 325 to go with 10's. 2 caller flop comes a 10 3 rainbow i lead 400 both flat. Turns a 7 of spade putting a flush draw out there. I check real bad guy bet 1600 with 4k behind and nitty guy flat. I figure if nitty guy had 33 again or like a/3 i could just get it all in here so i jamm and both guy called. One guy had a/j other had a/9ss and i hold to get to 20k. Few table break and new player come to table. The kid who overbet the flop with my JJ raise to 200 at t100 and i make it 700 to go with qjs. I get flatted buy a goofy mother fucker and the kid flats. Flop 996ss and i lead 2k into this pot. Goofy guy looks weak as hell and he flat while the kid folds. Turns a 4 i check to check raise because i think he was floating but he check behind. River a ks and i tought it was a great card to barral if he had like 22-88s in his range or even 10s but unlikey ne wayz he snaps with a/q and scoops pot wwith a high. When i mean snap i mean i bet he says call as soon as my chips landed. I was like i love this because in this hand he can only beat 2% of my range ever. Like a/j and qj are the only two hands i can ever have there because there be times were i turn all small pair into bluffs etc. Well i use this in my favor a few orbit later when i make it 500 to go at t200. He make it 1200 on button and agin i felt like he was playing against me so i flat with ahjs. Flop all hearts and i check call a 3k bet. Turn is a 2h and i check he fire 6k. Well if i flat here i think it polorizes my hand so i relect to jam and see if he will hero again. He did and now im up to 40k. We break and go upstairs with the rest of the 200 players. Again really tuff table and i steal a lot of pots but have around 50k. I get a/ks in vr qq for like a 20k pot and catch than a few hands later i win 10s on a 9 high flop vr i dunno he folded. I get moved once again and its a juicy table. The guy to my left is a manic and we ended up getting in a bunch of pots. I chi[ up to 100k when the blinds were 4-800 and i make it 2k in the cutoff he flats and flop comes q86. I bet 3k he makes it 8k and i flat. Turn is an q and i check and he go ALL IN !!!! He shoves 100 bb!!!!! so i go in the tank for 4 min before calling and he has kq. River is an fen 6 so we chop. Hand around my 100k stack for a few hrs and finally get somewhere when young kid who plays semi decent make it 3k utg blinds 6-1200. Im on button with 77 and both hijack and cutoff calls. I didnt wanna squeeze here because i didnt wanna flip 20k with the kids from utg so sb call (100k guy) and bb calls. Flops comes 678rainbow and sb jammed 100k into another 20k pot. Old nitty as guy in bb snap call for 20k and fold to me. I snap and the 10k0k stack has k9 lol. Turn a 9 which now i cant lose the side and i brick river. So i make a 40k profit in the hand. Few hour go bye and i end up playing lots of pots vr this young golf pro. Hes real tricky and keep trying to outplay me ever hand. I have 109 diamonds and raise utg. He flat on button and bb flat . Flop comes k22 two spades and bb check i check and he bet out 4kish. I relected if i call here i make my hand look strong and if he check the turn i better all river. Well turn is another k and i check he bet 6k with about 15k behind. I really think he weak here and no way in hell he can call. So i jam with 10 high and he snap folded. I 3 bet a guy called ohio buckeye or something like that an high stack mtt reg online and he folds to me every time. We broke for day 2 when we got to 40 and i ended with around 190k chips. Im top 5 in chips for day 1a so i fell really good for Saturday. I keep ya updated but wish me luck. First prob going to be around 50k so that will be a sick score.

i hate downswings!

2011-02-16T12:03:00.000-08:00

Feb Update

2011-02-08T13:02:00.000-08:00

Well ive been very sick this month. It started off by me getting no sleep for a few day because i got in a fight with my gf parents. Ive decided i will not live there anymore so me and my gf are looking for a place. I was in Miami for the wpt and played 3 events. The first one was a 340 buyin where i went super deep but lost a/10 to j/3off when a ladie reshoved my 15 bb stack open. She went on to win while i got knock out 23ish. The next event was a 300 and i was steamrolling my table. I than get 35 bb in with jj vr a/k where the guy tank 4 min before calling...nit? i busted that 40th. The last event i played was the 1100 buyin which only 60ish people showed up for. All were really good players with a few big names like badcard aa , grinder , and many more. I end up getting aa crack twice but bounce back until i lose all my chips with 99 on a 932cc board. The guy reship my 3bet with kqcc and bink on turn.

For online ive only played around 22k hands but it has been profitable. Im up around 4.5k pre rakeback and wishing that they wont take my tables away. In a few days i will have to be playing only cap. I love the concept of cap but i hope they fish do to. I will no longer have to leave when i double up and all i got to do is focus on table selecting.

Sng and mtts ive only played a few and up around 1kish. Ive final table 3 6 max mtts in a row but no big wins. I keep trying to work on my mtt game as its by far my least skilled format. I've also been playing live cash at the track at night after my session and doing well. I'm up 4k in two day playing 5-10 where both time i got people to go broke with k high flush draws on flop! Im about to head over there tonight so wish me luck.

I also just purchased a new computer and just waiting for it to get here. I got 3 30inch dell 3007wp monitor that are going to be hook up to it so it should be a beast. Below are the config..

January Report

2011-02-04T07:38:00.000-08:00

Well i know it already the forth day in Feb but I've been extremely busy lately and sick!

I start off recapping on how i did playing cash. I put in over 160 hrs and played over 160k hands. I started the month off very comfortable at 200nl but was lucky enough to be moved up to 400nl mid way through. I stumble for a few weeks at 400nl but still made a profit. Every week i was a winner this month and end up making a little over 5k. In cash alone i spent over 16k in rake!

Now for my sng game. I played a measly 259 sngs and made around 1k profit. I crushed the 37s by playing 122 and making over 1400 dollars! I am very disappointed in my volume in these and this will need to be pick up by 750 more in the future. I am on the leaderboard for profit earned but i need to play more to stay on it.

Last but not least my mtt game! Since I am invested into pocarr i decided why not have them back me for mtts. The first day started out great with me final tabling the 90k but lossing kk vr 66 for chiplead and a lot of money. I then lost all my profit but bink another 3k score to get out of makeup. I played 190 mtts total for a 344 dollar profit.I cant wait to improve in this as its my favorite format to play.

All in All January was a very good month for me. With Rakeback i made a little over 18k and over 100k vpps . Im 10% completed with my sNe challenge. Pocarr has been going great and we keep getting quality players day n and day out.

Marathon Day

2011-01-29T11:30:00.000-08:00

So since ive been slaking lately Ive decided to put in a 10k vpps day. It started around Friday at 6 pm and with few naps few break and some other shit i got done today at 2. W0w what a mess it was. Around 2700 below ev but i never gave up. At one point i was 3.5k below ev but got on a nice upswing to break me even. I had a coaching session with Kevin Thursday and he going to take my hu game to the next lvl. Hu is my worst game by far and i really can't wait till study the shit of it. Well im real tired and going to go crash. I got 2 days left and i will get 5k each day to finish out the 100k for Jan prop bet. I will update Monday with how this month ended!

Finally!

2011-01-19T13:59:00.001-08:00

Well i did play some 400nl today like i said i would. It really not an huge difference except for more money. I didnt realize how many regs where playing both games. I made 1000 dollar in skalansky money so that was good and about 130 in USA currency :) Im gonna slowly keep playing more and more and hopefully i get as comfortable as i was in 200nl.

Mtt is finally bink one! It wasnt for all the much 3kish but it was a nice felling to actually win the damn thing. I got all of my makeup complete so that was an relief! This will just give me more confidence to hopefully bink a real mtt.
Well im off to an hockey game! Tomorrow another day and hopefully another mtt win?

Moving Up!!

2011-01-18T18:37:00.001-08:00

Well today started great than lost everything i made then won more. I ended up around 400 but it was a fun day. I also got to play against kevin who ran like nuts vrs me. The reason for the title is i have the green light to adventure out into 400nl. Am im ready? Its going to be a beast and the swings going to be bigger. Also Kev said i start making .66vpps so that like 4 hrs a day off for the 5kvpps. I'm probably going to take it slow and mix 1-2 and 2-4 to table select optimal.Wow i can't wait till tomorrow :)

Mtts well FUCK mtts lol. Again i went deep in the 8 rebuy to get 12th when i jammed jj into kk for a great final table stack. I dont know how regular grind that day n and day out.

Cant wait for white coller in a fews min. Been waiting for month for that to air!!!
Tomorrow is another day ...

Caught Up

2011-01-17T18:30:00.000-08:00

Well i caught up for last week slackness. I earn over 5k vpps today and it felt good grinding the 10 hrs. I hardly made shit but played good all day. Its gonna be a quick post because i got to rush home for the pocarr meeting. Im just going to drop the pics below. I also went deep in the 90k again but lost a/3 to qj.

2011-01-16T19:06:00.001-08:00

No im not busto and no im not giving up on SnE. I was felling ill the last few days and havnt been motivated. Partly due to my deep run in multiples tournament all week to only cash in one big one :(. Cash i didnt play my best last few days. Hince felling bad and not playing on my A game. I still profited but needed to play about 20k more hands . This week Def going to go for the 50k hands and make up the 5k vpps i lack this week. I do have a meeting with kevin tomorrow ( i think) so i hope he can evaluate my game and let me take some shot at 400nl ..... am im ready we will see

Sngs i didnt play many that all. I crushed the 38s again but lost in the 60s. Im only like down 15 buyin in the 60s but that 800 dollars lol, 38s i think i win one out of two which been a sick heater. I do plan on putting more volume in for 38s and finish the leaderboard.

Mtts well it started well. But the variance in them are unreal. Like today in the warmup im felling good with an 80k stack a guy ship 40k from utg+1 when blinds are 3k and i rejamm with jj. Of course the bigstack has AA and i lose the 200k+ pot with 600 left and a mini cash gtfo. Were getting some coaches for pocarr for mtts which we have a meeting tomorrow. Im going to work real hard on my game and play less this week and focus back on my SnE chase. I think im going to reward myself when im done is to play only mtts on sunday since there softer than the week. We will See

Well sorry about the long wait. Tomorrows another day!

So So Close..

2011-01-11T14:56:00.001-08:00

Well it was a ruff morning to wake up to. I explain latter but i did very well in cash today. I only played close to 6k hands but all day i pretty much played solid. I might get to take some 2-4 shots soon so we see about that.

Sngs also went well. I only play 11 of them and made like 144. Reason why i didnt play more was the fact that they were reg infested. Every time i was going to load another one i see like sippin and radoom in all the games and i dont fell like playing in -ev games today.

Mtts went horrible today. I did get oh so close at binking 18k last night. It was the 90 grand and i got to the final table with like 7th in chips. Anyways 8 left utg ship 22 big stacks flat with 66 and i reship with kk for the chiplead and of course u know what happen. So i got 7th for 2.8k blah. Today i bubbled another mtt i know i know number 3 in 3 days of mtt that are higher than 100 buyin. It was the 109 2x turbo i jammed 99 and lose a top 3 chip stack vr aj and 300 dollars :(. I went deep in another 50 dollar trny but i reship a6s vr 10s and couldnt hit my ace o well. Lost like 500 for the day in mtts.

UPS and downs...

2011-01-10T14:42:00.001-08:00

Well in cash today started Freaken Awesome!!! within the first hr i was up 900 dollars. But what is Newtons law? What goes up must come down rather fucking quickly lol. I did end the day up 60ish so i take the win.

Sngs i didn't play that many but i did make some Mulla Baby. I made 126 dollar for 14 which isn't to shabby so ship the 200 dollar day for me lolz. I run so damn good in 38s and suck at everything else for some reason. In 61 38s sngs im up 926 dollars with an roi of 40% hmmm Ballen.

Pocarr we had a meeting last night. We talk more about advertisement, referal bonuses and how can we make pocarr better. Also Alex and i are now playing mtts for the site. I literary bubbled the 109 20k this morning in an ugly way. I dont even wanna talk about it lol but im doing good in the 55 daily Ninety Grand with a top 20 stack with 380ish to go. I also played another live donkament last night in which i bubbled that also Wtf . I had that tournament won 3 times but lost aa vr k8s for 40% of chips on ftable and lost two pair to running straights . Well im off to focus on this tournament before i donk myself out of it . Also watch Organ win tonight!

Weekly Report

2011-01-09T09:41:00.001-08:00

Well all in all it was a very good week. I reach my 25k vpp pace and also made some money. In cash i think i played very good winning almost 1900. If i stop before the two session where i got real tired it could easily been a 3k week in cash. I won money everyday and im playing better at 200nl.

Sng's also went well. I got 10th overall in the neptune leaderbaord and currently sitting 5th on the SS leaderboard. I won everyday except today were i only played 60s and lost 5 buyins. I like how i'm playing and going to keep making my sng game good.

Pocarr went well this week. I made a few video and im going to make some more tonight. I also have a meeting at 10 and were going to discuss advertising. My students are playing more volume and are learning this dumb game :) Well im off for football and another live donkament. 125 mtt with bounty so i see yall monday.Tomorrow another day.

live donkament!

2011-01-08T18:25:00.000-08:00

Sry no pics today since i only played for a few hrs and im home watching football. Wow new orleans lost tonight GTFO! well in cash i did win around 250ish and in sngs i made around 140ish. Im so upset with myself! I had a chance to win neptune and i blew it. Not by choice but by some really bad luck. Bubbling with aa's over and over is not fun. Tomorrow wont be a long day since football starts again at 1 pm then back to work monday, I did get a new futon for my office and its in there now. I was going to aim for 20 day of 5k vpps but now since it gives me more flexibility im only making it mandatory for me to earn 25k vpps a week. That will make my 100k per month and i know i have extra so 1.25 mil is def going to be reachable!

The live donkament was a fun one. I wasnt really planning on playing but i went to the track to see who was there after my break. On a side not i did a good dead. I seen an old guy pushing his car and i pulled over and help. i thought he was only gonna push it a little bit but the old fucker made me push this car like a half a mile. Wow im outta shape and he almost had a heart attack. Poor bastard and his pos car. back to the tournament! it started around 2 and it was a 125 buyin. A good friend of mine who always helps me out Steve ask if i wanted to play. Well i end up lasting 2 hrs in a deepstack lol. I made a bluff were the guy couldnt call i thought and he did lol opps. Than i lost 99 all in pre to a/4 at t 600 with an 8k stack :) im o-2 there in trnys :) Well tomorrow i recap on the week and like i said i need around 1.5k to complete my 25k vpps per the week. Tomorrows another day

White men Can't Jump!

2011-01-07T16:18:00.001-08:00

Well i got in the office early this morning because around 11:30 it was my usual basketball time with my old workers. I was down to start off the morning running bad but wasn't to worried about it. After i played i felt so exhausted i only was able to put in about 6 hrs of grinding today. That = around 3.8k vpps so a lil behind the 5k ive been doing. I thought it might be a 1k day before once again i get exhausted and lose total focus. But +400 not to shappy making my win streak continue.

Sngs are a whole nother story. I just need to win 12/38 to win the neptune leaderboard and i dont think it going to happen. I went 0-4 in my first set lossing to 2 outers twice and the whole day been like shit. I only lost around 40 dollars
but man i wish i coulda ran good today. I have 13 game left and look like i need to win at least 4 to even make top 10 :( Hopefully tomorrow will be a fishy day and i can bink some of these sngs. Also on a sidenote ss still has me fucked up.
I sent all my hh and 14 were reported lol so we see if they fix that.

Well tomorrow is another day!

Almost got me!

2011-01-06T18:49:00.000-08:00

Well there is a time when every win streak comes to an end! But luckily mine hasn't yet :) I started to day off really late because i wanted to get in some sleep. I got to the office around 11 before i put my first grind in. At about 12:30 i wish i never woke up. I was down around 800 in cash and 250ish in sngs. Well i never gave up and grinded my ass off for another 9 hrs. i won around 130ish in cash and got in around 8k hands.

In my sngs i also came back. I lost a lot of money in the 60s but made it all back with the 27s and 38s thankfully. If i have another good 36ish is games winning around 12 of them i will win the Neptune leader board. Well see how that goes! Also i remember why i block my stats at sharkscope. They suck on recording lol. It says 99% coverage my Ass. They have me winning only 440 dollars at the 16-35 lvl and im up around 1.2k in them. Hopefully they fix it because the main reason why im grinding these again is to get up there for free advertisement.

Well it officially the latest day i stayed up grinding in over a month. lol i fell old :) Tomorrow another day!

fun....

2011-01-05T14:07:00.000-08:00

Well i called it a short day today. I started out playing very solid. Got up to around 900 in cash before the doomswitch came on. I ended up dropping about 700 back before i called it quits. I just wasnt playing my A game and for this year unlike in December when i fell like im not playing optimal i call it short days. I have every Sunday off but i prob wont take many of those. So they will make sure i keep ahead of pace.

Sngs started out good and stayed that way. I end up winning a little over 3 hundo so it help the day out. I did get on the leaderboard for the 15-35 range . I was aiming for the 35-100 and bink on that for some reason Go figure .

Well all in all it wasnt that bad of a day. I still made over 500 and its makes 3 winning days in a row :) Going to make a video for pocarr than off to dinner and movies with my gf. Tomorrow a nother day!

1.2 percent completed

2011-01-04T16:17:00.001-08:00

Today was an odd day to say the least. It started out really well being up in both sngs and cash and than it all crashed after lunch. I had the worst hr i had ever losing 1k. I came back tough to make a whopping 13 dollars :) Im going to try to stop my lost rate as soon as i reach x amount. I mean for that set and see if that helps. Losing 1k in an hr and running 800 below ev make the day turn to shit.

Sngs went well today. I made a little over 300 and got in quiet a few. I was upset that i did bubble 4 of 16 60s which is a lot of money if you think about it. 3 of them were really unlucky and one was standard. I'm going to keep plugging away with these esp if i keep making a profit.

Well all in all a fun day. Made around 350 but more importantly got around 4.5k vpps. I stop early today because im fucking hungry and there no food in my office.
Tomorrow another day!

First Day YaY!!!! kinda....

2011-01-03T15:55:00.001-08:00

Well today was my first day going for sNe. I played a few hrs Sunday but i was bombarded with meeting that started at 5pm and ended at 12 pm . The first meeting was with Kevin going over my hands and leaks. He discovered the same one i always have and we been trying to fix it. We then did a live sweat were i got murdered lol . Losing like 8 buyins 4 tabling is never fun. I recovered after to be up like 40 total for the day. The 2nd one was me making a video with a student for pocarr. It turned out good and he is really impressing me on how well he coming along. Now if he only puts in volume he could defiantly move up. The last and final meeting was with pocarr, We discussed a new mtt coach and realized our students needs to put in more volume. The ones that plays a lot are doing great and making us a good amount. The ones that arnt are costing us time and money. We have some of the best coaches out there for sngs and our students arnt really taking advantage of that! It actually surprises me. I mean im staked and coached for cash and ive been doing whatever it takes to get more info out of my coach.

On the right is my cash session today. I was instructed to get back playing 12 tables. I really like how i played my oop hands and im going to keep working on that for this month. My goal is to get to the 2-4 lvl by Feb so i can easily pile on 8k vpps per day instead of the 5 im doing. You can see early was very frustrating for me because i running horrid by when it changes is it fell Oh so Good.

I also like i promised put in some sng grind. I played 24 games and made +71 dollars. I did 12 60s going 2-12 and 12 38s going 8-12. The 60s i just couldnt win the closing flip and kept running into coolers. The 38s i actually think i should of went 12-12 i lost a/k twice on the bubble vr a/j and q/7os and the other two i lost 99 vr k/10 and qq vrs a/10. I really like getting back playing these. I

plan on making the 35-100 9 man turbo leaderboard. I only played 4 at a time while playing cash . I'm going to continue doing this until i either lost to much or it takes away from my cash profits.

So all in all it was a good day. I made a video of a bubble situation at a 38 and waiting for a student to make one more. Than gonna do it all over again tomorrow.

2010 Recap, 2011 Goals

2011-01-01T09:19:00.000-08:00

2010 has been a fantastic year for myself. I started the year out grinding sng's before i went off to Vegas in May. The Vegas trip has pretty much made my future for myself. No i didn't win a bracelet or even cash in a single event. What i did do was meet a very special person named Alex Carr and we talk about starting a staking/coaching site for sng players. I hung out with him a few times and we even played some big live sngs. Leaving Vegas i still stayed in touch and in November www.pocarr.com launch. The talk became a reality and it was time to get to work. With Alex dedication and hard work at the tables we were very lucky to sign two really good coaches named Grant and Joel to the group. These two players crush the games there in and are both 1 or 2 on the leader boards. Another huge thing came my way in December. After i read multiples articles on needbeer crushing the vpp record on pokerstars i knew i had to get ahold of him. My goal was to get sne for 2011 and if i was going to be able to reach this i needed help. Again very fortunate Kevin agreed to coach and stake me for the whole year of 2011. We started out in December and i earned more vpps in one month than i had all year (120k).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now its 1-1-11 and I'm going to jolt down my plans/goals for 2011.

1. I will reach Supernova Elite Status on Pokerstars. ( 1.25mil vpps is my goal )

2. I am going to start the p 90x workout and keep an update on how that goes.

3. I am going to be playing alongside of my cash table sngs ranging from 16's + .

I need to get back on the leaderboards and i will now unblock my stats for the first time since sharkscope has been open. I am going to reset all my stats which i will do every year. I don't like the idea people being able to know exactly how much you made your whole life and i wish i could disable every stat on all sites :)

4. Keep pocarr running and do whatever it takes to make it succeed. I hope we get a lot of new students and show them how sngs are not solved and can still be beaten.

5. I might have an opportunity to do something no one else have done just waiting on Kevin response and i will than add it to my goal. (More later about this)

I wont be able to start back online until 1-2-11 because I'm spending a little much needed vacation with the famz. I will be starting out at 1-2 6 max nl and hopefully work up to 5-10 by the end of the year. I did not post any money goals because i know with hard work and dedication the money will follow. Well im off to go mudding i post picks later :) Happy New Years to all!!

Challenge = Completed

2010-12-30T07:43:00.000-08:00

Well I actually finished it last night and I couldnt of be more happy to be done. I manage to earn over 100k vpps ( 120k) to be exact in less than one month. This challenge was set to help me get ready for my sNe challenge in 2011. Later i will post my goals for next year.

Day 19-22 , Christmas , and more!

2010-12-27T15:44:00.001-08:00

Ok well i break down each day and see how that works out.

Christmas Eve :

Played all day at the office and earned around 5k vpps. I also m

ade a few hundo and Santa gave me 40 for finding him at a table. Went to bed early so i can wake up to presents.

Christmas:

Woke up around 8 o clock and got the lil girl up. She was so excited. Open our bedroom door and follow the candy canes to the Christmas tree. We first open stock

ing and my gf got me tons of junk food. Everything from sweet tarts to beef jerky. Now it was present time :) i got some clothes , liquor and the main things were a promise ring , mini fridge , and a futon for my office :).

Now sarah got hooked the fuck up!! I wish i was 4 S

he got all of the following and then some

an i phone , Nintendo ds , laptop , a million dolls and movie and here are the outside gifts that we all got her

So were def gonna start her racing go carts and 4 Wheller but in order to compete she gotta be 5. So it all about practice time now. Well at about 1 i had to head to office so i could get in a few 1000 vpps. I needed an extra 10k fpps for my 4k bonus. Got done around 5ish headed back so we could go to my gf crazy uncle. This guy is a nut job! He lives in a multi million dollar house and a few year ago when i was over there i was drinking with my gf brother. He comes storming over and snatches our drinks like show me your id. Ever since then i hated this motherfucker and i just totally ignore him when i go over there.

Sunday:

Head to the office early and played a shit tons of hands in a hurry. I just wanted to get my 4k bonus done with and head home for Monday night football! Well i got the bonus and football was cancel WTF so i just laid around the house and set up a new ipad.

Today :

Woke up real early and got started off around 8. Went horrid at first being down almost 700 dollar but i turn it around at the end to be up + 600ish. I completed 5.5kvpps and i have exactly 11.5k more to finish the milestone. I want it to be done by Wednesday so i can take Thursday off and get ready for our Disney Trip for new years. Well i got a meeting tonight for pocarr so I'm gonna head home watch to game then get on to discuss business. Im rooting for the falcons so the bucs can make the playoffs!

Challenge:

Merry Christmas to everyone!! Today i did get in my 5k vpps but wow did i play bad. I think today was one of the softest days this month but i coudlnt focus! Prob because i wanna be home with the famz i dunno. I did still manage to make around 150 ish plus a nice bonus from mr santa clause.

Day 17-18

2010-12-23T15:08:00.000-08:00

Well Tuesday we rented a big yellow hummer limo for my girls farther. We also ate at a very nice restaurant ( Chillies lol ). All I remember is me getting wasted because they have 2 for ones and i must had 8 drinks at dinner with another 3-4 in the limo. We went around town looking at Christmas lights and my lil girl enjoyed it. The next day hungover as hell i played very well. I peak at around 1300 but finish winning only 700. There was this huge fish were we both set around 300 deep but he left so it ended my sess.

Today i also had a great day. I dunno if its run good or me playing good but again i peak at 1300 and finish up 11. I think I am understanding more and more each day the dynamic of a short stack. 99 doesn't always mean get it in and a/q sure as hell doesn't either. I'm also playing full stacks vrs wells that keep paying me off so that helps. I got everything cleared up with pocarr today and also made a short vid. That was a lot of stress taken off my back. Well off to go play bingo and get ready for another 5k vpp day tom.

Day 13 - 14

2010-12-19T16:59:00.000-08:00

Well these two days were suppose to be my Schedule two days off! Key word is suppose lol. Yesterday i woke up and headed into the office to get in some games before we had to leave at 4 for dinner. I started around 500 down than the satty fishies came on and i turn it into +800. At 3:30 i log out of cash being a 500 dollar winner and being down around 500 still for the week. I did play the monthly 30k free roll and made a whopping 8 dollars. So around 5:30 ish we arrived at my mothers for Christmas dinner. Were having Christmas at my mom and dads early this year so we can be with others on Christmas. About 9ish we finally leave and head over to my sister for a big day Sunday. I didn't put any more volume in and just laid and played with her american pit bulls.

Today i woke up around 9 am with the two dogs cuddle next to me. I get in the shower and head over to my grandmas for our Christmas with my dad. It was good to see all my sisters and my grandmother and had a great time. My niece and nephew have to be the cutiest kids on earth , I love them so much. So on the way home I con my gf on driving back to Naples (2 hrs) . I than loaded up 4-6 tables of 1-2 on my laptop. I'm glad she drove because with these 2 hrs i made around 500 dollars. This brings me up 8 dollars now for the week and for the 3rd week in a row im a winner. The funny thing is i put in over 60 hrs this week me

aning i making less then 20 cent an hr :). With rakeback it more like a 2k week so that not bad.

Since we got back all i been doing is watching football and the hu match against isulidur and haxton. Both really wasnt out of line but i did see haxton put in 100bb pre with qjs vr isulidur qq's to river a straight. I think im going to try to redo my blog and try using some html to make it look nicer. Well here the two days graph

Challenge

Vpps 54k

I have 11 days left for the last 56k vpps. I will be taking Christmas off but i should easily complete this challenge for the extra 7.4k

Also congrats to Kevin for making pokerstars team online Pro. Makes it even cooler now being stake by an ps pro :)

Day 11-12

2010-12-17T21:10:00.000-08:00

Yesterday i was again instructed to play 12 tables of 1-2 for another 20k hands. I had some spots where i was spewy and Kevin pointed them out to me. I played really well but ran awful around 600 below ev. Today i had to do a lot of things in town so i couldn't get much done. Had to pay some friends off/ haircut / car wash / Christmas pageant / and see where my 10k is at because for some reason the bank that i have bonds in wont give it over. Im so furious im suppose to get this money today for pocarr and it going to be a few more days because banks just dont care.

Well here the graph of last 20k hands

The next few days I be spending time with my family so i wont be able to get hands in. I am going to try to make a few vids and play some tournament on full tilt. After i get back i have 10 days taking christmas and new year off to get the last 50k vpps.

Challenge

vpps = 50k

13 days left

Day 9-10

2010-12-15T16:13:00.000-08:00

I was instructed to put in 25k hands of 1-2. The last few days has been miserable. Yesturday was a train wreck and today wasnt much better. Only difference is today i ran 700 below ev and yesterday i ran at ev. I felt i played really well today but just wasnt holding. Hopefully these hands get reviewed tonight and i can look forward on winning soon.

Challenge

Vpps 42k ( 3k behind pace)

16 days left

Day 7 & 8

2010-12-13T18:58:00.000-08:00

Well yesterday SUCK! I started online and felt that my head wasnt in the game. I quicky drop 600 before calling it quits. I went to the casino and played some 5-10 Big mistake because i get one outed for a 3.5k pot PUKE. Today started like yesterday me running 500 below ev before turning it into a 700 dollar day. But since i put no volume in yesterday i tried playing one more set. Big mistake again running 500 below ev to finish the day up like only 150ish

Tomorrow a new day

Challenge

Vpp 32.2k ( 3.8k behind)

+ 76

Day 6

2010-12-11T18:29:00.000-08:00

Draft # 3 lol (explain later)

So i woke up this morning and was instructed to play 1-2. Prob because i crush the .5/1 for over 40 dollars in a week lol. Any ways it started out great was up 400 ish then drop down to around 100 to end my first set. I had to go to a dance thingy that my little girl was doing ( she was so cute and good) . Got back put in more volume and made like another 500ish. One thing i know for sure is these player are way more aggro. They 3 bet really light and call even lighter. My last set pretty much tells me where my game is at. I'm making some of the sickest calls i have ever made and all with confidence. Well here the graph

Challenge

Vpps= 26.2k (1.2k ahead of schedule)

+640

So tomorrow i will come to the office and grind some more 1-2. Hopefully with the same success.

I promise a video of my office but its not finish yet so pics will have to do for now.

My grind station

lol it kinda dirty and here a desk for anyone who want to keep me company

Well i just got done making another video for pocarr ( im behind schedule for that lol) and i think it turn out great.

Back to the top the reason why its draft number 3 is for some odd reason during the first two i got a virus on my computer. I never had a virus on this computer and it really odd. It called system tool 2011 and just shut down everything and virus pop up everywhere. I turn computer off ran it in safe mode and disable all it excess points. So if anyone know how i can def get it off my computer like with freeware let me know.

Well im off to the casino PEace

Day 5

2010-12-10T18:50:00.000-08:00

Well i woke up extremely early today (6am) for some odd reason. I got into work around 7 and started plugging away. I had a great first session before the b-ball game to be up around 300 dollars. After the game which i sucked today i came back and was felling lightheaded. My friend matt came over and watch me get murdered within 2 hrs losing around 300. My last session was up down up down and i finish the day with +40.

Also around 6 i went and play some live 2-5. I bought in for 300 and was out of there by 6:30. I limped on button with q4 suited with 6 limpers. Flop q104 two clubs and check to me i bet and get both blinds to call. Turns a 6 and sb fires out bb smoothes i make it 100 leaving myself 50ish behind. Both go all in!!!! i was like ok hope its 10 4 and 106 lol wrong it was q10 and q6 lol owned.

Also shout out to Alex once again he going through a lot and i hope his baby comes out healthy as can be.

Challenge

Vpps= 22.8k

+40

Day 4

2010-12-09T17:22:00.000-08:00

Well after i finish my 50k hands challenge i was instructed today to fix one of my leaks. I got to the office and watch 900 hands of what kevin does in the spot where i do wrong. I than only played 12 tables focusing on improving that area. So today i am counting as a day off. I am allowed 6 days off total for this month and today will be my first. But dont let that fool you i did put in a decent amount of volume and im now 1 day ahead of scheduale. More importantly i had a winning day to bring me up 8 dollar for the start of this challenge.

Challenge

Vpp = 20k

+ 8.00

22 days left

On a side note I think Alex is having his baby girl tonight. If he does i wish him the best of luck and i cant wait till she grows up and become the best female poker player in the world. Also i hope she doesn't turn out looking anything like him lol jk.

Well im off to see a chocolate covered house with the baby and tomorrow i be at the office bright and early. I than get to take my break playing b-ball with the boys.

Day 2 & 3

2010-12-08T17:31:00.000-08:00

Well let me first start of by welcoming our newest member of the pocarr family Jcar. He absolutely crushes the 18man and im glad he apart of the pocarr crew. Well Yesterday and today been a long nightmare grind :) I just got done putting in over 10 hrs today for 5 k vpps. I lost around 560 yesterday by 20 tabling and playing like a bot. Just got ran over. Today i started 20 tabling lost around 300 than switch it up to 15 tables. I than ran it up to +200 for the day before my last session where i got aces crack 7 times for huge pot and end up losing over 100 for the day.

I just combined the two graph since they both are - negative.

The good thing is i got over 10k vpps for this and around 40k fpps so it doesnt make it that bad.

Challenge Update

17k vpp done

(-440)

3 days completed

I also finish the 50k hands needbeer wanted and i cant wait till he review them. When i 15 table i crush the 5/1 but 20-24 tabling i am not getting max value out of my hands and just playing for vpps.

Just Was not ready

2010-12-06T18:02:00.000-08:00

The title is referring me to 24 tabling with needbeer setup. Woke up around 7:30 (tx dad) and headed to the office. Played Around 8k hands before lunch were i was up 290 20 tabling. Ate some bomb ass ribs and got back playing. 4k hands lost 160 then my gf came over around 6ish. Chilled with her for a while then jump on and 24 table. Big mistake lol lost around 350 because i wasnt getting value out of anything.

Brags: +17k hands +1k rake

Beats: 11hrs , -225

Around 200 in ev lost o well i think i got tired and was playing bad also. Gotta work on that before Jan.

Also im putting together a mini challenge for myself. Starting today Im going to achieve 100k vpp this month. Im going to try pay 1k in rake for 20 days out of the 25 left in December. Doing this will add about 10k to my pocket to start the new year off right which im going to need since i am no longer getting a paycheck and i owe a few people some cash. Pocarr meeting about to start will post tomorrow about that.

SCRIPTS

2010-12-05T19:01:00.000-08:00

Today was a very fun day. Woke up around 8 and got to the office a little after 9. I put in a long grind session of 7k hands . I was ahead but below ev of course and i went and ate lunch with my gf at Iqunamias however you spell that. Got a bomb ass chicken bean bowl which im currently snaking on atm. Came back grinded till about 6 when i check my email. Kevin sent me a guys name that is brianwi on stars that will do custom scripts to help multi tablers life easier. Well i got in touch with him and he added two new scripts to my life. Let me tell you something OMG i love them. Ones a wait-list script that auto join x number of cash table for me and the other closes out tables that i been to in the last hr. I only played around 2k hands after but wow what a difference it made. It let me sit back and play and not have to worry about dragging tables in. I think one of the scripts turn god mode on because i ran like 350 above ev for the last set lol.

Played 11k hands and made around 450ish. Also my new challenge is 50k hands this week and im free to play as many tables as i like. Im going to pace myself for now and go up a little bit each day. I 15 table all day today and tomorrow i prob 18 table. Below are some exciting hands

The call is not really that difficult to be made after you analyze the hand. He can only have a set or 9/7 here but i think he would raise the flop and or not even call pre. What makes this a funny hand is after he types YOU HAVE SOFTWARE in caps and all i could type was obv and then he left :(

Another Day

2010-12-04T22:05:00.000-08:00

Well today was officially my last day work at the casino. I got there around 11 and left around 5. It was real sad leaving the people I've work with for over 3 years . The good thing is now i can play there and hopefully make more than if i was working. I was instructed last night to play another 5-10k hand today so when i got off work i jetted to my office and got in around 6k.

Brags : Quit Job, Finish Challenge , Profitable Day

Beats : No more guaunteed paychecks , only 6k hands (6.25 hrs) , + 21.50

Well all in all it was a good day. Got to go get some sleep for a big day tomorrow.

10k hands

2010-12-03T17:35:00.000-08:00

Well i was instructed by my Coach to play 10k hands of 50c/1 today but the kicker was only playing 12 tables. 10k hands is hardly that much any more when you 24 table but try doing it only 12 tabling and you find out its an 11 hr marathon.

Brags : Completed the Challenge , Profited Day

Beats : 11 hrs , + 60 dollar :)

So ya i didn't crush but i did run below ev and i prob spewed off a few hundo with horrid calls.

Im just glad i got it done and i cant wait for my next challenge Mr Thurman!

Tomorrow will be my last day as a poker dealer ( Hopefully for good). I've worked there now for 3 years and pretty much the people i work with became family. The good things is that its prob the softest place to play live in Florida and its only 5 min from my office :) So whenever i get burnt out for the day grinding away for sne i jump in my truck and go grind 1 table.

Here my graph

Pretty much was going good my first 7k hands than i took a break came back and OPPS. Spew time lol glad i recovered back positive.

Today is My first Day

2010-12-01T08:11:00.001-08:00

Well today is the first day of my new life. I have one more day of work that is on Saturday. After that i will be done there also. I just sign the lease to my office and im already loving it. I got them to give me new furniture / free phone line / free cable / and a mixture of t1 and cable internet. Once i get all moved in i will post up pics. I also got a window weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..

Last night was also amazing. Alex Grantz and I got a lot accomplish last night for pocarr. Added new students , talk about our investments and how we will proceed onward. Were also looking for a great 18 man coach if any one interested. Well I'm going to watch and make some vids for pocarr and play some poker today. Tomorrow i will wake up at 8 am and be here till 2 :) to start the elite buildup challenge.

Quit My day Job!!

2010-11-28T15:40:00.000-08:00

So it is official!! Today was the day i went to my boss and quit! I've been a poker dealer for the last few years. The job has had it ups and downs but I'm finally glad it will be all over on Saturday. The reason why i am quitting is the fact that my 2011 is all plan out making it able for me to reach elite. You will get no where in life if you continue to work for people. Some of the most successful people are the ones that had the balls to do something that no one else would do. I'm leaving an 80k a year job for a non guaranteed life but its something that I'm proud doing. I do not want to look back and taught of what could have been. 2011 might be the last year of online poker and i def want to be very much apart of it.

Thursday I'm looking for an office building so I will be able to grind away from the home front. Getting away from home will make this more like a job and will make me prepared on how to handle the grind.

Pocarr is going great and im really excited how it turned out. I cant wait till i get more students and were having an owner meeting Tuesday. Well that is all for now.

New Start

2010-11-23T06:25:00.000-08:00

So there has been a ton of changes as of late. Pocarr went live last night! I'm real excited to be with such a great group of guys. I really can't wait to see how far we can go with this! The other thing is im still waiting on an important email regarding my future for 2011. There 7 days left until i know for sure on what expected of me. If this goes through i will be on my computer 24/7 the whole 2011 haha that rimes. Im felling like im 5 again and Christmas is a week away.

Yesterday was real fun and excited. I had to miss work due to my contact cutting my left eye Sunday night. So i go to an eye doctor and not only did i cut my eye ive developed something called grc. Its a infection in both eyes cause by wearing my contacts to long. I was given 3 prescription drop to take daily until this goes away. Also i cant wear contacts until this is over . So since i haven't owned a pair of glasses since middle school it was time for new ones. I bought some nice ray bands for 400 dollar. While waiting for my glasses to get done i went and watch Secretariat. It was amazing and it almost made me cry :). Also last night we went to a Christmas light thing in part of town. There were so many people and took us forever to park. Stupid us we took my big ass truck and i cant just park this thing anywhere. It was fun and my gf daughter Sarah liked it a lot.

Sunday suck! I went to work all day and cut my eye that night. I did see the eagles win vr giants so that wasnt to bad.

Saturday I wasnt felling good at all. I stayed home from work and waited until my gf got done. We then went to Red lobster ran up a 100 dollar bill and rush to our show. We saw the Radio City Rockets or however u spell that. For 90 dollar a ticket it wasnt that bad of a show until the ending. The went all Christian showed how Jesus was born.

Friday was exciting. Went to our normal basketball game and played around 7 games. I think i haven't lost a game since we started. One game we were losing 10-5 first to 11 and i just went on fire. Made two 3's and drove two lay ups to win the game. After the game i came home and went to a movie. Im trying hard to remember which movie............ I think it was due date. Pretty funny movie but not as good as hangover.

Thursday was another day off for me. I woke up got my haircut and met up with my boy Nick. He was buying a car for the first time and ask me to go. Since ive gone through more cars than the average 22 year old i know a little about car dealerships. There great con artist and will do anything to get you in a car. So we drive about 1 hr to this dealer and look at some 300s that he saw online. We go in and that bring us the price. 20,000 hmm funny you have this same car on auto trader for 15,900 and trying to sell it to us for 20? We should of left right there but than he said he talk to the manager and the will honor that price. No shit you will honor it you posted it. So after about 6 hr sitting there and going through bullshit we leave with the car for a test drive home. He ends up returning it. That night my phone kept acting up and time for a new one. I think my gf is a better con artist than them car sellers because not only did i get a new iPhone 4 she did also and hers where twice as much. I'm glad i got these puppies because there so damn nice.

Well i think that sums up the last few days. Going to my sister for Thanksgiving and just enjoying hopefully the last week of non poker.

Pocarr live

2010-11-22T16:00:00.000-08:00

Pocarr should launch soon as i will devote a few hour of my day towards that. I still have some un finish business to clear up with a few players. Arron and Gerrr i havnt forgot about you just been busy with work and trying to seal this deal. If anyone has any ideas for this blog please let me know.

Steve Oooooo

2010-11-14T08:29:00.001-08:00

So ya the last few days have been a lot of fun. Wednesday i went to my old condo in hollywood to hang out with Mitch and Cbass. Just some background about them. Mitch is a 40 year old grinder who looks like an old Justin Bieber. Hes been playing poker pro since 03 and grinding since. Cbass is 28 year old prodigy genius in Omaha. He won a circuit event and many Omaha tournaments. So i get there Thuesday night fire up some mtt and go deep in the 77 turbo. Next morning i wake up around 8 am and jump in more mtts . I cash in a few and final table the 109 20k for 7th lossing a/q to jj than aa to qj. The rest of the day we went to the beach and chilled. That condo is right on the beach and is so pretty, I came back to grind more mtts and just kept min cashing.

Again Thursday i wake up super early to catch that same 109 tournament. I get 22nd losing a.10 to q/10 and also get 1 outed in the 5 rebuy for 28th. This week i had a lot of deep runs in mtts just not many big cashes.

So i get back Friday and play some basketball with my boys. I end up getting a jammed finger right off the bat so im playing one handed. It was ok since we all suck except for my boy Nick. I swear he shot like 40-42 3's . Just an amazing basketball player. We came to the conclusion since hes from Kentucky all they do is fuck there sisters and play basketball. Am i close? So after b ballen it up for a few hrs i went to SilverSpot and got ticket for the new movie Unstoppable. We watch it around 845 and it was a great flick. Movie and wine never felt so good.

Yesturday was a very busy day. I wake up around 800 to be at work at 945. We were doing another high hand day and boy was we pack. I dealt about 7 hrs straight without one break. I finally get out of there around 800 at night. I bought tickets for Steve 0 at 10 in Marco Island Comedy Club. It was his first ever stand up and he was funny as hell. He did some neat tricks and the food and drinks were really good also.

Im like 6k away from milestone that i cant wait to complete. I gotta ship some of that away once i get it but no biggy . My rep more important than money any wayz. I also got a great email that i wont go further into but if everything goes right within a week i be setup perfect for SNE next year! Also Pocarr going to launch sometime soon this next week so im going to be very busy, But hopefully these are the last few month that i work in a casino ....

Hows my day going

Well today i played hookie from work because its my Friday. Also im real close to unlocking a milestone bonus. Well while waking up early and getting owned from the Europeans i came up with an idea. I'm winning at 4.41 bb/100 at the 6 max tables now. What if i convert my money over to the euros and if i can win at that pace my bb will go up 6.2/100 for doing the same work. Well i tryed it out today and being down 600 from this morning and yesterday im really glad i did. I won around 10 buy-ins so that a free 4 buy-in bonus since the exchange rate :).

Once again real excited about pocarr and cant wait until we get started. Im waiting for my student Matt to get home so we can start his sess and make a few vids. Here a fun hand today where i was 24 tabling and piss the guy off.

I had this guy convince i was a cheater and there no way in hell i could call. Here the reasoning for all my action. First the guy had been 3 betting almost all buttons drrrrr so when he does it again i elect to flat call so i can trap him with his weak hands. Flops is kinda ugly but only hands beat me know is aa ak kq 10's and some other forms. I elect to flat and revaulate the turn. the 8d is a blank and he now bets half pot again. There tons of draws i beat and only a few hands that beat me so i elect to call once more. Rivers a perfect card and he bets 22 and didnt put me all in. This is a shorta tell as if he trying to look strong. It cost me 22 to win 82 so all he has to do is be bluffing 1/4 times to break even. This hand is always gonna be the nuts or nothing. Kj/kq type hands checks behind and a/k and aa might also check. Only hands that i think he can have is kk or 10 /10 but i dont think he good enough to bet flop with made set. Well lol funny how u can analyze a hand while 24 tabling. I might be a cheater ?

Well that my graph today. +470 10k hands

Been a while

2010-10-29T05:41:00.001-07:00

Sry i haven't blog at all this month. Ive been busy with work and really didn't have the drive for poker. So to catch people up on the past. Ive been trying to serve for the military since i got out of high school. I was 2 days from leaving but then decided to go to college. Well during school i got in some trouble and really mess my chances of going back. I got a call early this month telling me my waiver was cleared and i can join active duty, I got real excited and rush to the recruiting office. After 3 days of bullshit i find out im disqualified again. How can fucking gain rapers/ murders / drug dealers / faggots can join the army and i cant get in because of cock fighting? Well that really crush me and made me not want to play much. Than i get my first student for pocarr. Matt a young smart kid who really wants to learn. I love his motivation and will power. We talk a ton over phone and try to make some vids that just didn't work out. Im going to keep trying with him because pocarr start hopefully Nov 1st. Poker news i went to a local casino and lost a huge pot. Long story short i got it in with aa vr j10 on j87 flop for 1900. 9 riv lol busto, Well like i said i got my drive back to play and im only 14000 vpp from a milestone so i gotta get on that.

End of September

Utg is a really good player that rank on p5s so when he raised from utg i know he strong.

Perfect flop i check and after i see what developed i was please to get my money in. I step away from the screen to come back to see i lost. I tought he might of had a set or something stupid like a/10 but A FUCKING 6!!!! i want this call all day but come on Stars why give him the fucking 6 on the river. It just know happen im such on lifetilt. Going to bed goodnight

So this week since i been of work i decided to go with my girlfriend to Busch gardens. Its a theme park in Tampa area. We had a great time and at night it turn into a haunted park pretty cool. The next day i spent my time at hooters watching football games and playing poker while my gf and her friends shop. Pretty productive day i play some sat for the 550 Omaha plo hu and i won a few for 500. Sunday i wanted to go to the bucs games but decided we couldn't since we had to get home to get her daughter. I play my bop shootout and lost hu :( on my first table. I than played a few mtts and went deep in a few but nothing to special. I'm back trying full ring and i think im going to put 50k hands this week to see how it is. alright i'm back to the tables peace.

2010-09-20T20:30:00.000-07:00

The Break Down

2010-09-18T18:01:00.000-07:00

Well to catch people up on the title. I work as a dealer full time 6 days a week at the local dog track we have in fort myers. I been at this job for over 2 and a half years working my ass off day and night. I started as a brush and became a dealer. I know help brushing one day a week and deal the other 5. Im putting tons of hrs in and busting my ass for my work place. We have a few problems at the track. Were always changing the floor staff as many dealer become floor than back dealers. One thing about our place is most of the staff are family to all the others. There like 5 of us in the whole place who not at least kind to one other member there. So there has become people who get favored over the other etc. This year has been really bad because i think our floor became the weakest it had ever had. They are all great people and have good hearts but they all have flaws. Well to sum it all up with where I'm going I've been taking lot of shit from lot of people at the track and just brushing it off. Today rub me the wrong way. We had a high hand every hr for 1k dollar so we are very busy. About every dealer is schedule to come in and i started at 10:30. I didn't get hardly any break time all day and work straight through till 7 my time i was suppose to be let off. Ive already work my max hrs and we are not aloud to have overtime. Well come 7 i say something on the lines of goodnight and i get shove a piece of paper in my face. It says all dealers are schedule here till 2 am. First this is far from the truth and 2nd we are not that busy anymore and all the night shift have already arrived. Another thing that make me in a bad mood is since my licence been suspended my gf had to pick me up at work. Well i now have to tell her to go home and comeback to get me whenever i get out. Well when i get back up from a 2 min break to tell her ( couldn't find her lol ) i look and we have 14 dealer in the break room and we have about 13 table running. I now get sent to my 4th limit game of the day !! This really pisses me off for many reason. Not to sound arrogant at all but im def a top 5 dealer at the track. I make more than any of my peer because not only am im fast i dont make mistakes and i get a long with everyone there. I kill people by 20% or more in tips. Were suppose to have a grading system that every year never stands true and for the better dealers we get screwed. So know im staying late dealing a 2-4 limit and we have ton of breaker plus i dont have a ride home. Finally i get out of my game and he lets me leave around 8. I get home and i eat dinner for the first thing i ate all day. After dinner i go outside and just loose it. I have never let me job get to me so much as it did tonight. My girlfriend over 2 year have never seen me cry (but for the time we broke up :( ..) and i just lost it in front of her. I really tried holding it back but boy did i cry like a little baby. It actually felt really good to let it out.

Im in such a hard spot. I haven't enjoyed going to my job in over a year now and every day is a struggle for me but i have to work. I would love to go in and tell everyone to Fuck off but i really cant. I love playing poker with all my heart. I have really developed as a player in the past 3 years and i have crush everything from cash to sngs . Poker has been my spending money over the last few years and gave me comfort in buying nice things and eat really nice. I wanna go for elite next year and have enough cash saved up for all my bills to last a year. The problem is if i can make it until next year. I know it only a few months away but its going to be a very hard few months. Im not financially secure to leave now and my br online is really weak. ( I still owe a few people online money that im grinding off to pay them back.. I will pay yall back i promise hang with me im sry ) I just need some advice from other on what i should do. If anyone read this please just shoot me an email or post a comment here. I haven't proof read any of this so if something dont seem right just ignore it. Im going to reread it myself since it all came from my heart.

Last Night

2010-09-12T15:16:00.000-07:00

Well last night i went out to my local casino after work to play a tournament. I lost a classic coin flip jj for a/q real deep. I than jump on the 1-3 nl and started grind away. Everything was going good until i seen a few friends and started drinking the night away. I got really wasted and got drop off at my gf house. This morning felt so bad and working the 6 hrs that i did didnt help. I just got home and still fell sick but gonna try to grind some more cash. Im doing really well at 6 max 50nl and gonna keep trying to develop my game. Here a quick pick of my setup in the new office. I post a pic of the whole thing once its done and clean!!!

Little Update

2010-09-07T20:45:00.000-07:00

Update

2010-08-28T17:37:00.000-07:00

I havnt played much online since ive been busy moving. While im waiting on pizza and testing Internet for the umpteen time i decided to write a quick update. Yesterday i went and play live for like the 2nd time since Vegas. 5 of us drove to Sarasota to play in a 100 dollar trny. It had a great structure with 25k starting stack. I played for 6 hrs and got 14th 10 paid where a ladie flop the nizzzle and couldnt fold lol. Than the 7 o clock trny started and its like a hyper turbo. 130 players and i end up around 30th. With 40 people left i was huge chip leader with only 20 bb and lost 4 flips to the same old guy to give him my whole stack. Blinds were 2500 5k with 1k ante and the average had 22k just to give u an idea lol. Well after i just pitted around waiting for my buddy to finish. One of the 5 took down both trnys so it wasnt that bad of a trip. I think im going to just put in a lot of volume this coming up month. Im not going to keep track of daily records just do some update blogs. Im gonna focus on making some great vids for pocarr and start getting that on its way. Hopefully when i do try elite next year pocarr will be my main income .

Pizzzzzzza here lol im soo fat gotta get back working out!! here the pic of my setup now. Its not in the right room . Were in the process of converting a bedroom into a sick office. We pulled up the carpet and painted the cement. Hopefully it look sick

Well what a day today was. Wake up jump on 16 6 maxcash tables and started to grind away. Went ok early then just got plain bad. I started losing pot after pot until i just gave up and took a break. Come back and drop down to 9 tables. That was working for about 30 min then once again Hell broke loose. I just gave up and headed off to work. Well on the way to work i stop and got an icee. Reason why im telling you this i somehow manage to drop a hundo out of my pocket. Pretty pissed so i went to work and made prob the lowest ever in one day. Well there always poker when i get home right :) Well i just continue to run into set over set aces crack etc etc for about 5 hrs until 11 o clock . Something change and it back into the black. 7k games including game this morning where im up a lil lol already ran in to quads with nut full house flush vr sf and kk vr aa but somehow still ahead lol. Gonna call it quit after i finish out playing till bb. I request some coaching for cash game from a few players. Im just waiting for them to get back to me. Well here my fun graph of the day

2010-08-12T20:50:00.000-07:00

Well today started like most days. I woke up early jump on 50nl full ring and grinded 24 tables for 2 hrs. Everyday i keep playing i find more leaks. I def gotta let my game develop and expand to next lvl thinking. Well anyways i made 1 buyin and than jump shift to my challenge. ERRRRR ACe lol sry i love when they put that ace on river for a 50k pot in a 45 man. Well any ways i lost 8 dollars first set than i won 100 ish the 2nd set. I had to run to my work to sign my health insurance papers because i was to lazy to do it last night. I also tryed getting an haircut while i was in town but i run bad and woulda had to wait 40 mins. So f that back to finish my 100 sngs today. Well upon registering i look at the lobby and for some reason don't fell like regging over sippin , jigga , and wavegoodbye. LOL so f that i jump in some 22 hypers instead. Played 30 of them to make a quick 100. I really love these and im addicted to them worse the crack. There like my drug where i cant get enough . I remember sometime last year i had like 215 in my account so i reg for 2 88 hypers , i ran it up to 3600 in one day and next day busto lmfao. So after i had my quick fix i jump in to grind some cash again. Bad mistake as i drop 6 buyins within an hr just tilting and getting coolered. Pretty bummed i ate dinner and loaded some cash vids from cardrunners and jump on some 6 max. I'm way more comfortable at these as my agg really pays off. I 9 tabled for a few hrs to get my money back. I then wanted to jump in some more 9 mans but same old regs lol go to bed already . So i decided to just play some 45 mans and it went ok.

Here my graphs for today

5000 hands + 1 buyin

Played 113 Sngs

20 6.5 45 mans = +212

11 12 45 mans = -55

51 16 9mans = + 102

30 22 Hypers = +129

Poker = 388.36 (4.7 hrs)
cash = + 1 buyin (6.2 hrs)

2010-08-11T21:46:00.000-07:00

While i finish my last 4 games of the night i might as well get an head start on writing this. Woke up pretty early this morning and loaded a set of 24 50nl cash games. Played for about 2 hrs and i think i played ok. Def have leaks and prob gonna get a coach before the end of this year if im gonna pursue elite. I made 1/2 buyin. Than i started my sng grind the first set i made 5 dollars 2nd set - 170 third set + 100 than i decided to try out some 45 man since i havnt played them in a while. I busted pretty much every 6 dollar one i think i reg for and lost another 140ish for that set. Pretty bummed being down 200 i went and took my gf and her kid to watch that dog movie in 3d. It was a fun little movie for the little one. After coming home i jump online to reg for my last set of 25 9 mans but it was pretty reggy so i decided to play some 44 man turbos. I ran horrid bad but somehow manage to break even after 20 games and i couldn't stand it no more. For one I'm not br for them since hyper turbos u have an very small edge. I want to get tons under my belt because if i can start holding my own the 215 hypers will be great for my elite challenge. There like 4.80 per each one and i can manage to play 200 within a few hrs thats a lot of rake. After i was done playing with those i loaded up another set of 45 man to hopefully break me even for the day. Last session did ok i played down to 3 and i couldnt go back in red but bubble kk to qq in the 6.5 got 4 outed than 3 outed in the 12 to bubble and this was last hand of the night

i get qq against 99 and a/k all in pre board ran out 56629 3 spades ak was spaded lol to end 3rd.

75 9 man = -78

32 12 45 mans = -21

46 6.5 45 mans =-23

20 44 hypers = +3.4

2 hrs of cash = 1/2 buyin

Poker = -120 (8.8 hrs)

2010-08-10T20:58:00.001-07:00

Well today i woke up at my buddy nicks and didn't fell so well. I called off of work and went back to my gfs so i could grind. I started on my goal and played 102 9 mans today for 230ish profit. The first 2 sets didn't go so well. This is my first time playing 25 at a time while stacked so it taking me time to get use to everything. I tend to either misclick or rush my decisions. I finish up the last two sets to end the day with that. Ive been reading a lot on how to achieve SNE for next year. Its said it will be easyer for me to complete that if i play cash. So im going to keep adding some cash session into my sng grind. Im going to start off at 50nl and work myself up to 100nl . Once i achieve 50 buyins i will move up. I played for 2 hrs today and made around 3 buyin so that was nice. I started bad early jamming into aa and set over set 3 times but made it all back in last hr with some good solid poker. Well here my graphs

Cash

Sngs

Well anyways stayed with my buddy nicko . I got off work went to help him clean his new house and than headed home to play. I reg for some mtt since i didnt fell like putting in a strong session. I only cashed in 2 tournaments a 12 man 180 which i shoulda won but played bad. Than i played the 8.80 turbo with like 3k runner and got 27th losing a/9 to k/6 off pre bvb fou 14 bb and 3-4th in chips. Really bummed going to go to bed.

Work = 200 (7 hrs)

9 Mans

2010-08-08T21:23:00.000-07:00

Well after i got home from another 7 hr work day i jump straight into my challenge. I played 4 sets of 25 16 dollars 9 mans and wow it didn't go as plan. First set made a nice 163 profit but the next set lost 270 lol. The last two sets manage to get me positive for the day and im gonna end it as that.

I think i could played way better. I rush to many decision and jammed to many spot without antes to make it -ev. I try again tomorrow

Poker = 47 ( 4 hrs)

Work = 310 ( 7 hrs)

Total = 357 (11 hrs )

Also im going to update my first week stats for my main goal.

Poker = 1810 (46hrs)

Work = 1661 (39 hrs)

Total = 3471 (95 hrs ) Well on pace

The Result

2010-08-07T21:57:00.000-07:00

Well i started a challenge that i need to play 1000 games , 2k profit , and maintain a 2 dollar profit per game. Well here are the final result

[ /] 1000 games ( 663 games) 43 hrs

[ /] 2000 profit ( 1787 ) Tuesday only losing day

[x] 2 per game ( Around 3 dollars per game )

6.5 378 played roi 38.8% + 952

12 249 played roi 31.4% + 939

16 9 mans 36 played roi -18% -103.5

In all actuality i do have another day but im gonna start my new challenge tomorrow.
I get one point for each goal completed and half a point for more than half done so this week score is 2 points. Every month im going to push myself to make atleast 6 points to figure out if im capable to go for elite next year or not. Obv i will have to leave my job but if i can put in this volume with a 40 hr work scheduale i should be on pace.

New Challenge

[ ] 500 9 man games

[ ] 1000 profit

[ ] 2 per game

I gotta clear some makeup from my stakie Aaron. I haven't put in hardly any volume in the 9 mans this month since the 45 mans been soooo juicy. The 500 games should be manageable since they last shorter and i do sets instead of continuous. I will be making videos all week of my play for pocarr also.

Today at work was long made 315 for 6 hrs so here is my daily update from this morning and tonight

Poker = 320 ( 7.9 hrs) Lost some after this morning

I like again how i played . I wish hem shows the ev in the graph for 45 mans but they don't or i just havnt updated mine in a long time. I think i fail my 1k game challenge by 300-400 games but i will be really close to the 2k profit according how i do tomorrow or late tonight. I got invited out to go to a club from the owner of vision. He put my name at the door and got me a table and a bottle comp on the house. What a nice guy Scott is. Well gotta get dressed for work.

Xbox Controller

2010-07-31T17:55:00.001-07:00

So while i was at work today i lose both my contacts and have to go home to get more. Waiting for my truck to come get me since my licence our now suspended i read some emails from alex and decided to give him a ring. We talk about the future of pocarr and me coming on as an 9 man coach. Im super excited and also i ask him how he can grind 30 game continuously and his response was the Xbox controller and a program called hjalper ! It pretty nice program where i use my 360 controller instead of a mouse to quickly cycle through games with no exhaustion. Ive been sucking lately but today was nice ive played 12 45 mans and won 3 of them with a 6th place also. Gonna play more once the baby girl goes to sleep and i have to work tomorrow. Well here my new avatar since im going to be affiliated with pocarr

If any one of you wanna get staked for 9 man sngs shoot me an email as pocarr will be staking !

Good People

2010-07-20T14:08:00.001-07:00

People think since we gamble we must be deggins and bad people. We cant be trusted , we have a problem . That so far from the truth. I think that the people who play poker for a living are some of the most trust worthy people you can find. Ya there are some few bad eggs but in general they are some good old southern gentlemen who will help a friend out in need. Like today for instance Arron help me out with something that many of my true friends wouldn't be able to. I hardly know Arron and Ive just talk to him trough aim but he trust me enough and helped me out with no hesitation. Well thinks to him im back playing and starting back my sng grind. I just did my first set of and cashed 9/12. I hope the games stay this soft all day. Well Good luck at the tables!

So much Going on

2010-07-09T16:21:00.001-07:00

Well since Vegas Ive been doing so much besides poker. Ive work more hours than ever and pick up hopefully 2 more jobs that i will add on my plate. I talk to Alex today about staking and hopefully when he get back we will start something up that we talk about in Vegas. Yesturday I traded my Hummer in for an f150. I think i got a good deal with a fx4 lifted and they order me some 22 inch rockstars for it. Once i tweek it and change all the ugly chrome for black i will post it. I was just tired of the hummer and it was falling apart. I have a whole new motivation on life. I want to work work work make money work work work. I cant wait till alex get settle back in so hopefully i can get back making money playing poker. Watching Ncis right now than i think I'm going to the club. O i watch Airbender and today i watch decipical me Which was really funny. Well Good luck at the tables!

Quick update

2010-06-30T20:31:00.000-07:00

Well ATM I'm in a movie theater waiting for the premier of airbender to show. It's starts in 30 mins hopfully it's doesn't suck. I've been working so much latly and I'm really excited about it. Tom the limits change for Florida and I think it's gonna be mayham! I got back with my ex and I'm so happy right now! She so special and she make me so happy. My plans for the future dosnt include much poker but I'm trying to get a house new truck and my life strait for the future. Well I post later if this movie sucks!

Am im Dead?

2010-06-26T07:27:00.000-07:00

No I'm def still living i think. I haven't updated in a while and I'm sorry for that. Ive been so burnt out in poker work and life. Ive played so little online but when i have played multis i went so deep so many times to get 8th 9th 13 where first is huge. Coolers after coolers make you wanna scream. I haven't played hardly any sngs in the last 2 month online since Vegas. I got so much on my mind. Tuesday is going to be a very special night for me ! I bringing someone back into life hopefully and this time it will work. I gotta deal today and July 1st Florida changes. Bigger limits bigger games Smaller tips lol. Well the first few month gonna be sick but when everyone going broke are tips are going to change a lot. I think I'm going to look for a mtt/sng backer soon to help me move up. If i cant find one i prob just wont put any volume in until i want to.

Almost Done

2010-06-04T23:39:00.000-07:00

Well im back in my room in Vegas and i cant believe 10 days is almost done. I played a lot of poker/ party and party more the last few days. It has been a blast. I did well in the sngs but not so good in the mtts. Today i played at the Vet it was a 340 and about 6 hours in i was the chip leader. I was 3 betting everything so wide it was all working so well. I get ak to put in over 70 bb against my aa to get up to a 105k pot. I got moved to another table and took some early coolers but bounce back nicely. Bout 10 hrs in i get 96os to put in all his stack on a kk92 flop vrs my aa only for him to bink his 9. Than i make it 6k pre and guy insta make its 55k on button i snap shove he has aj vr my ak and im out 96th place out of 630. I head home sunday i cant wait!

Half Way Done

2010-05-31T19:13:00.000-07:00

So Ive been in Vegas now for about 6 days and having a fun time. I played the 1k the other day and prob drew the toughest 1k table ever. I had xtracy to my right a wpt 2 time winner to her right to my left i had a huge online pro forgot his name and kachinko however you spell it. Hes the guy that won two bracelets two years ago . Also i have like 2 more big online players it was mayhem. I end up getting collared twice but my bust hand i had 17 bb and the sb 3 x i rr and he jammed kk vr my a/k.
I also been playing tons of sng and doing pretty good. My buddy alex aka msusyr24 and i been grinding them hrs everyday. The only epic one that i can recall was a 520 buy in and alex and i played Chris moneymaker and his boy for an additional 3k in side bets. So we were playing for effectively 8k. Chris and i end up choping it all anyways so waste of time. Im up for the trip so that good also got a new set of headphones which our pretty sick. Im in the hotel now tired as hell think im going to crash! Sry for the long in between updates but so much poker so much fun.

The First Day

2010-05-27T10:40:00.000-07:00

Well I arrived in Vegas around 12 yesterday and i had to wait about 40 min for my bag to arrive. I had a bad felling it wasn't going to show up and i swear it was the very last one to drop off. After that we jump in a cab to go to the Rio to check in. Vegas is so beautiful as we were passing Cesar , Hooters , Baily's it made me fell like the first time i saw titties!! Well any ways we get checked in and walked around to look at the wsop rooms. Man there are so many tables and side rooms its not even funny. We than pre registered for my dealer event and event 3 where I'm starting on day 1b. 1500 instantly gone :(. After that i got a great 12 inch pizza and than went to the card room to play. They had 2 games going and we started a new one. Only thing they had was 1-3 no limit so Elmo and I played it for around 2 hours. We got up because the game was so boring!!! There was 3 nits and 2 bad players . I lost a 200 dollar pot where i raise pre to 12 with a/10 and guy flats on the button . Flop comes out 10 8 6 i bet 35 he flats. Turns an 3 and i bet out 45 he shove for 65 total i call he has 8/3 os. I leave up 27+ dollars. Than the stupid thing happens and i swear it will be the only time. I never played craps but i went with Elmo and sat down or stand ed up with 200 dollars. 10 min later busto and so was Elmo with 1k.
We than hoped a cab over to the Venetian to pre reg for some of there events. While we are here they also having the deep stack extravaganza which is very nice. I jump on an 1-2 for about an hr to make 170+ and than registered for the nightly 120. They had about 124 players and you started with 7.5k stacks. I played kinda tight early and built my stack up to around 12k when this hand happen. 5 limper's with 1k in the pot flop comes out kj10 check around turn is a Q. Guy bets out 2k into the pot and i have a/2 with a nut flush redraw so i jammed. He snaps his 5k left with q/10 and river the boat!. I than start crushing the table by 3 betting light and jamming a lot of pots. I get my stack to 20k and jammed qq after a guy all in with 4k and get called by a/q he flops an ace so now back to 14k. I turn that into 56k with 3 tables remaining. I'm above average but my tables fell like where online! We have over 60% of chips in play at our table alone and the rest of the tables have around 4-10 bbs if that. Well a guy jams for 4 bb at t1200 and i have queens once again. I make it 18k to go and the bb looks at his cards and insta rejames for 48k. At this point I'm a hundred percent sure he doesn't have AA or KK because he woulda at least paused before he jammed. I call he turns over A/Q ! guy the first shoved had A/3 and they both turn there A! 100k pot leave me down to 12k and i jammed bvb with k/10 vr j/3 and I'm out 24th place 14 payed. I hope my boy ship it he had 120 k with 24 left and a very good player. Well im getting dressed now to play the deepstack wish me luck and GLATT
