NO MORE TOURNIES

It's official. I'm quitting tournament poker. From hereon, I'm going to stick to play cash games both online and live. I really hate the feeling of busting out of a tournament. LOL!

Ice breaker! After I busted out of the I went to The Midas Touch to play cash games. After that went back to Metrowalk to have dinner. LOL. After dinner I went home. While I was waiting for a bus, jeep, FX, taxi... I saw a folded paper that looked like a twenty-peso bill. I picked it up and poof! it wasn't just a twenty-peso bill! It was accompanied by Ninoy. Hahahahahahahaha!

BTW, quitting tourney poker is a conscious decision. I've been thinking about it for quite awhile. I am not on tilt or anything. :D

WHAT A RUSH

I just took my first dip at NL30 and I'm already loving it. In less than an hour of session, I got dealt 3 Aces, 4 Kings and 3 Queens in 4 tables. Up 1 buy-in. :D I got stacked with AKo vs JJ on a pre-flop race. A few minutes later, I got my money back with my biggest pot of the session where I had QTo and spiked the nut straight on the turn vs my opponent's Top Pair Top Kicker. :)

I love this game!

NL30 :D

After two tries, I'm finally ready to move up to NL30! I'm sooooooooooooo happy! I'm excited to bring my A-game to this level and crush it. ;-) Yaaahooooooooooooooooo!

And I wonder, NL30, can you take me on?

BOOMSWITCH?

I'm too busy to update my blog. I'm putting all of my efforts on poker. I want to crush this game so badly. I'm currently playing around 12 hours (including breaks) a day, 6 days a week both online and live. To give you guys a picture of how my grind is going please create an account on checkyourbets.com and add me up as a friend. "weakend" for my live grind which started at week 11 of training and "mosh_warrior" for my online grind since week 1 of training.  I did not post my graphs here because I'm trying to encourage other poker players to log their games. Please check it out. :D

Thank you dochazard for introducing me to checkyourbets.

FRUSTRATING.

After two and a half days of reformatting, reinstalling, and updating, I finally got to play poker. BUT not after some fuck ups involving goalwin and poker tracker 3. Spent 4 hours yesterday trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with PT3 and GW. After all the hassles and frustrations, I finally got to play a decent session. 3 hours, 2 suckouts and a few tilt decisions later, I'm down two buy-ins. The universe is reminding me that this life I chose to live is hard as hell.

NEXT DAY PLEASE!

VACATION MODE: ON

Just got back from a 4-day poker break. It was supposed to be a 3-day poker break if I didn't bust out of my Bacolod Tourney early. Anyway, got home around 2 o'clock from Iloilo and hit the bed immediately. I took a much needed rest and got up around 12 o'clock in the morning. (it's 5am now)

I kinda lost my will to blog since my ad application was rejected so I'm kinda not in the mood to blog. Haha! I'm thinking of moving my blog's address to some other site so I can put up ads but I don't know where and when to start.

My training is not going well and I'm on a downswing. I hope I didn't jinx my game by posting my graph. In the past, posting of my graph was always followed by a downswing. So I think I will never ever post my graph ever again. Haha!
