Some Things

- Desired results aren't quite there but giving myself a chance by going deep in some tournies. This would probably bother me more if I hadn't received some good news the other day.

- Over the holidays, the original plan was for my brother and myself to have a bit of a Euro Trip, see some things we otherwise probably never would. And now it seems maybe we never will. Turns out he needs to take a business trip during that time so vacation canceled. Amsterdam will have to wait for me yet again.

This is good news, though, because I'll now be heading home for the holidays, which then starts a chain of good news poker-wise cause now I can deal with monetary issues, eventually head back to Europe, and get set up for

Yup, I'm officially (straight up) buying into my first major tournament. Should be a good time and hopefully it'll provide some legitimate blog entries in the future.

More then anything, I really just want to test what I think I know against the best and I see no reason why France shouldn't serve that purpose. Did I just double negative that shit?

That's it for now, I must now focus on not winning a Sunday major.

Oh and I think I forgot to mention that it'll be good to see my family.

Lost My Cool

After the performance by the D_R_Y character last week in the big Sunday tournies I was motivated to do something worthwhile yesterday.

I managed to play good poker all day until, in the Sunday Brawl, I got sucked out on for a decent sized pot late, then shoved an A7 or A8s (don't remember exactly) in the BB to an AJ raise in the SB, with about 5 or 6 tables left I believe. But probably more importantly, enough BB's and time to wait for a better spot.

Then I proceeded to bubble the Sunday Million on Stars, this after making it down to 3 tables in the EPT Prague Satellite the day before, only to once again bubble that tournament. Really beginning to despise that site to be perfectly honest.

Oh yeah, and to top off a great Sunday, in the 750k on Tilt, I flopped a set early and had 1 taker on my value bet. The turn would bring a 3rd diamond, and of course I shove into the nuts. Then some Sir Douchebag types in "hahahah" in the chatbox before calling. Some real winners out there...

God I hate Sundays.


Also, quick plug. Tonight is the opening event for the NYRambler Poker Series II on tilt. I think tonight is a $10 NLH event for those interested. 10 ET I believe. Should be a good time with a weak field :)
