Last week was super dull, ended up like $100 bucks down, probably the closest I've been to exactly even for months and months, so super boring. One pretty exciting thing to happen was that I nearly got like $11k seized by iPoker for sending my friend some money and they accused us of money laundering. ZOMG. As if an upstanding citizen like Mr. X would do anything like that...
Anyway we explained it to them and they didnt rob the money off me so it was all ok in the end.
Sorry for the lack of updates, as I said not much goin on, last week was -$130, won around $3k so far this week so this month I'm up about 7 and a half dimes, absolutely abysmal effort considering my monthly target is $41k. ZOMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

Jan 14th: 25/50 NL Heads Up...
OK so I was having a quick sesh on Champs playing a few 1000nl tables, one HU. This Italian dude catches a few cards early but after about half an hour I'm up 2 buy ins and he tells me he wants to play 5000nl with me, I'm like "no thanks". So I play a lil longer, little bit of banter when he tries another huge bluff, now obviously being "a total nut who calls any 3bet and calls down with bottom pair", as one of the big iPoker players so eloquently put it, your boy X is not a man to bluff, so I call with something and he loses again. Now hes tilting pretty bad I type in "25/50?"and its on....
He's bought in with 2k so I just buy in to cover (remember I don't even want to play 10/20 again until I have about another 50k...) we play and I win a lil off him noticing that he has changed from super aggro blufftard into a weak tight scared money type character. He reloads wins some back and after a few mins I'm back to the original 2k and he has around 4k, now I can't have this can I? I reload to 5K and start to get serious...
Anyway the match is basically over when I raise 65o to $175 from the button, both 5kish deep, he calls, flop comes 467, I bet $250, he reraises to like $650 so I call, turn brings a 6 he bets around 800 I call, not even sure I'm ahead as he is playing super nitty and I think he may have filled up, though a straight is more likely. River is a 5 giving me a boat, he bets $1200 with $1800 behind so I put him all in, he thinks for a minute, calls, SHIP SHIP 11k pot. ZOMG. He wins a couple of grand back with some sick beats and I finish around 6/7 up on him over the two tables.
So yeah, so much for not playing above 1000nl, but I figured if I lost 10k I'd just grind it back in a week and I was +++++++++EV. Unfortunately I can't get HH from Champs but it was the only high stakes game going this afternoon so a few rail artists prob watched it, car crash stuff.
Had quite a solid week. +$11,788.52. Still a long way off my monthly target of 41 large though after losing 7 Gs in my first week. 4.5 dimes up on the month, waaaaaaaaaaaay off the pace, its my last exam tomorrow afternoon though so hopefully I'll be able to get a lot of hands in this week and try and pick up the pace.

Jan 12th: Broken even but no live poker. ZOMG.
I think I have just broken even on the year. Pretty terrible that I'm happy about this almost two weeks in but yeah, WOOP!
I should have noted I lost $7,192.68 in the first week, and +7k and change this week... so far.... so basically broken even and hopefully will manage to get into the profit before the end of the week.
Also I just made an outrageous play, even for your boy X this was hot...

zomg.
On the downside the people at the Bolton Grosvenor told me I needed to register for the first leg of the UK tour thing yesterday, however when I rang them up on Wednesday they were all like "Oh we just sold the last ticket, zomg I suck" etc etc. ZOMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. Pretty annoying despite me hating tournies and playing terribly in them and probably saving myself a G I'm pretty irritated about it. Also I have just taken a decent chunk of my roll out to, hopefully, put down on a house so I now have 40ish grand as my roll and have to grind 5/10 for a while. Also pretty annoying. Hopefully will run good and ship 60k before the end of feb and be able to move back to 10/20. I got $360ish weekly rb from pokerchamps despite only being able to 2 table there which was novel though I have just been talking to a different affiliate on iPoker who is offering me some ridiculous deal so I may just have Champs as another site I can check out if there is only a couple of tables running on I.
Also done 2 exams reasonably poorly, only one to go. holla.

Jan 6th: Change of Scenery
Whats up guys, well I'm still running pretty terribly, only dropped a couple more grand since my last blog though so not TOO bad as far as that goes. So many sickening beats and coolers, QQ vs 88 on a Q96 rainbow flop anyone? Thats right, 5 turn 7 river. ZOMG. This hand was cool too, glad it was only at 5/10:

ZOMG, that was just the first one I saw. Easily 4 or 5 as bad as this, I havn't tilted TOOOO bad since the -10k day so im only around 9k down this month.
Anyway, I can't stand looking at the iPoker software right now so I asked around and heard the worst games were on a site called Pokerchamps, which is on the same network as Betfair which means Betfair sports bettor types gamboool it up. The sofware is wierd and I'm not a big fan but the play is HORRIBLE. Like seriously terrible. Also there is 50% rakeback possible so I'm going to play there for a few days and hopefully run a little better.
If anyone wants to try it out and play against some Betfair boys sign up and use my affiliate code MRXPOKER, send me a comment and I'll be happy to add you to MSN to discuss any hands you need a second opinion on or anything like that.
Ha oh yeah, the night out was sick the other night, much champagne and some guy threatening to glass my friend got multiple head butts for his troubles. Amusing.
Right I'm out to to gamboolllllll, check for an update in the next couple of days complete with hilarious plays from the sports betting heads.
X
UPDATE: Already got one! I push with 44 on a 2258 board, 2 spades, he calls like 350 into around a 150 pot with K9 spades!! Amusing. I mean obviously the 8 double paired the board and he shipped it but...
UPUPDATE: Against the same guy I made ANOTHER hilarious value shove. (2.50/5 NL by the way coz of neteller deposit limits, zzzzzzz) hes got like 550 i cover, flop comes 8s6Ks and I have 86, bet 30 into a 42ish pot, he calls, turn is a 2, remembering the last hand i shove for effectively 530, into an 100 pot, he calls and mucks....

Jan 4th: ZOMG
Man, dropping 5 figures is so in vogue right now I just had to do it.
Ya boy X took a few beats and lost a few flips and tilted off a stack or two and ended up 10k down today. ZOMG! Anyway sorry poker, I didnt mean to insult you in my post yesterday, lets be friends again! YEAH!
This is only a short post because I'm going out/ getting crunk/on the razz etc etc but here is the graph of the month so far. WARNING: Not for the squeamish. Probably good if you accidentally overdosed on painkillers though.

3rd Jan: Wow I picked a sick day to do my first blog entry...
OK so I log on to ipoker and see a couple of good 10/20 nl games going, open them and a couple of 5/10 nl tables and sit to play for a while.
1 and a half hours pass
Mr. X -$8000.
Excellent.
Im not gonna bore you with too many bad beats but A7 loses to AQ on A78 board for 5k, 45 vs J7 on a J245 board lose for 6k and all kinds of other good stuff happens. Including me logging onto Stars depositing a grand to quintiple up at 25/50 nl and losing it first hand, FIRST HAND, then immediately logging off. GG Stars.
So I'm basically semi concious with rage, luckily I gotta go pick up my car which had to get new tires on it so after driving home with the new Banks album on full volume in a Benz I feel a lil better.
Get in log on and win back a couple of grand, feeling only 65% tilted when i push over a flop raise with 77 on A7Q board see the turn come Q (Pair the board ship it etc etc) then blank. Just as I'm starting to think what a great young man I am for managing to get even he turns over AQ.
ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH.
So now I am so tilted I can't see, in this state I have a vision and I speak to Poker itself. The conversation went like this.
POKER: "Aw Mr. X I see you are going to have a losing day! HA HA HA"
MR. X: "NO WAY POKER, gimme a royal flush..."
POKER: "OK X, PEACE"
I awaken from my trance to play this hand.
