Mega Pissed Off

Didn't play this morn or arvo and wasted the day which sort of annoyed me, so in my already semi tilted mind i played a smallish session tonight and dropped $500 getting unlucky in spots but generally playing like a didn't really care. Fucking pissed off atm as i have basically broken even during the last two weeks. Monthly totals looking pretty shit now at about $3.5k. Don't think i can even face the grind tomorrow, need to get my lazy ass back in the gym Looking forward to a fresh grind in June so i can refocus, laters.

I Feel Violated

Played for about 6 hrs yesterday and felt pretty hard done by but managed to break even after a torrid morning and early afternoon. Thinking today could not get any worse i was sadly mistaken, fml i had a shocker. Started at 8am and finished 11.5hrs later playing almost 100 games and at one point i was in for almost $1.1k which is a fair amount playing these shitty little things. I sat here for about 3 hrs in disbelief at the beats i was on the end of and the redic terrible plays by sooo many fish. How the fuck do they play soooo fkin bad? Are these real people ffs? Surely people cannot be this stupid, they play their hands so back to front sometimes. I've said it many many times but it boggles my fkin mind sometimes it really does, jeeeeboss! Anyways, i struggled on like a true warrior determined to recover some of my losses and eventually broke even again, incredible scenes of jubilation in the Amatay household were had.
No wonder i'm having breathing/heart problems atm, the stresses of having to witness sooo many showdowns in these things may be too much to take! Oh well nevermind, im just relieved i managed to get out of it again for the day. I'm gonna hammer it again tomo and Friday and then see where i'm at before the bank holiday wkend. I'm looking to make $1k+ in the next two days otherwise i'm gonna be disappointed with this month especially having had such a red hot start, laters.

I Thought I Was Gonna Die Today

Whilst i was playing on the cyber tarbs today i think i had some sort of a mini seizure. I was blasting through my usual games in pure donk mode getting shafting here there and every fooking where when i came over all strange. After a small twinge in my chest I suddenly started sweating profusely, i felt really weak, like i was gonna puke and i couldn't breathe properly. Honestly i was quite frightened tbh and i still don't feel right even now, thats what the stress of these high stakes mtt's does to ya! :)
Despite getting bum raped beyond belief this morning and early afternoon, i managed to swerve most of the idiots terrible plays and out draws towards the end of the day and bank a $630 win although i'm still not happy with my game atm. There's one thing is particular that i keep doing which i won't discuss here but its summat i need to cut out. STOP playing like a twat Jones!! Anyways, hopefully i can stick to winning ways throughout the rest of the week and cut out some of the shit that's crept into my game.
My wkend was pretty cool with the lads on Sat with the bbq in the arvo and then beers galore in Islington. After the munch we went to some karaoke bar where u hire out this room for a couple of hrs and basically get off you nut and sing your heart out, it was pretty funny. After that it was just beers beers beers at various places in the Angel area. Obv i had a horrible hangover next day but i recovered at my mom's after a delish Sunday dins dins. I then met up with the bird and we spent the evening in Windsor which was really nice, such a wicked day weather wise.
FML, i still feel like shizz, gonna have a lie down, hopefully this isn't my last ever post, laters.

Volume>Skill

Playing like a complete donk atm. I've lost/abandoned some of my subtle qualitays and i've just just turned into a shove monkey with no patience. Doing shit like open shoving Ax with too big of a stack, making redic 4 bets with filth having convinced myself they are on the shizz and i walk into QQ+ and also stacking off too light to 3 bets shoves with hands like 66-99 hoping for a race. Having said that i made about about $400 prof yesterday and in what turned out to be a frustrating day today a mere $100 profit although i didnt quite manage to break even this week.

Its all about volume tbh, the more games i play the more i probably win even thou im not playing aswell as i can and my roi and pretty stats are not looking as pretty as they once were my winrate will probably increase using this method and its all about making $$$ at the end of the day. Ran quite shit in the 45 man games this wk which i guess was to be expected given that i ran shit hot the previous week although i've had some semi decent results in 90 mans and managed a 3rd today in a small field $44 mtt to kinda compensate. Its a fucking grind but its been ok so far and i don't mind playing, i just need to try and win $10k+ over May and June to get me back on track so i can play other stuff. Also making a few extra quid from other poker related stuff atm which helps and is a nice bonus.

Weekend off from poker so its good to have the kind of routine i got going on at the moment playing from between 9-11am and finishing around 3-5pm ish with the occasional small evening session. I still need to up the hrs tbh but im a lazy bastard :) I havent played at night once since being home which is good although it hurts my hourly rate because there just aint enough games during the day UK time . Gotta BBQ tomo with mates in the arvo then out for friends b'day in the evening at some place in Islington, looking forward to it, laters.

Women!!!

I fucking hate the cunts sometimes! Arrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I had some stupid row with Kels last night which started with a redic arguement about who takes up most of the bed (definately her btw) and now i feel like shit. Had the worst sleep ever and today has been fkin awful, i feel terrible, proper bad :( I tried to play poker today but couldn't concentrate at all and donked off $150 before having the sense to log off otherwise i would have jizzed off alot more. Played all day yesterday and broke even, mega pissed off atm. ][popiuy5weqertilkihgiyutsawre. Feel gutted :( :(

Winning Run Comes to an End

I played a bit on Friday and won $300 (inc $70 rb) and also played a wee bit on Saturday this time breaking even. However, today saw me lose $600 which is no big deal and was too be expected i guess :( That's about it on the poker front tbh as i've spent most of my time since the last post with the missus. We had a couple of nice meals, a few good rumps ;) and spent a nice little day out yesterday visiting Madame Tussauds and then the London Dungeons which was a good laugh. Gonna be back on the grind tomo and i also really need to get my lazy ass back in the gym as i realised today that it been about three weeks since i last done any exercise which is pretty shit. That will do for now, short n sweet, laters.

Still Playing Good and Running Insane!

Its just what i needed after not playing much all year and doing my brains in Oz and NZ some nice solid profit. I ran redic hot yesterday making $850 after a very short lazy sesh but today was very different. I sat here for 8 hrs and ground out a $520 win after being stuck almost $700 half way through the day, so it was a decent comeback. Not sure what else to say except that i am enjoying playing poker atm. The longer i sit in front of this lappy playing poker the more money i win, its as simple as that. That might sound kinda arrogant to some people but that's just how it is, its a nice feeling to have i guess. I'm semi expecting a downswing soon because my results for May thus far are unsustainable but im still gonna play again tomo morn/afternoon then have the wkend off i think as i have a few plans and things to look forward too, life is good.

Printing Money

That’s how it feels sometimes playing these small field games, its like printing money. I’m still not playing a ton of volume but im doing ok and im playing good and running good which is obv a good combination innit :-) I don’t think there are that many fish out there that play these type of games better than me tbh. I play them differently to most of the decent regs imo, im not just all about blast folding im a bit more subtle than that at times. Also I don’t use any of the software bollocks that’s available like Holdem Manager, Poker Tracker, SnGay Wiz, HUD, blah blah fkin blahhhh. I play weird at times but I find a way and I do pretty good for myself. Managed to make another $800 today which was nice and although the games are getting tougher there is still soooo much value imo. Here’s a few stats and pretty graphs…

Start of the Rebuild

Not exactly setting the world alight atm and its not helped that i keep losing connection which has limited my volume levels and also cost me a few bucks. One afternoon the connection went for over 3 hrs which prob cost me between $300 and $800 ish as i was deep in four 26 buck 45 man games which fked me right off. I'm only playing 45 manners to start with plus a few random 90 mans and other small tourns thrown in. I started playing Tuesday and by Wednesday afternoon i was stuck $800, however i turned that around Wednesday night making $1.1k and have since added another $750 profit playing a bit on Thursday arvo and today. Most of the winnings have come from the 45 man games although i did get a 2nd in a tiny $10r on ftp today (raped HU) and had a close call in a 44 doll 70 runner mtt busting on the boob in 8th when my pock biatches ran into the booolets and didn't improve, sigh.
Thats about it tbh, a really boring post. Not swam with any Dolphins recently, didn't go to any beaches last week and haven't done any bungy jumps or Sky Dives either. Oh, i did go to Ikea last week, that was pretty special and i went round my mom's for a Sunday roast din dins with Kels yesterday, exciting stuff. It is kinda strange being home, back to realitay and everything is the same, not that i would expect anything or anyone to be any different, i mean i was only travelling for 14 weeks. One of the bastard things is chatting to some of the people who i met that are still out there travelling the world, i could soooo do 12+ months i reckon. It has been nice spending time with Kels thou tbh, she's lovely and im already planning some possible future holidays. Im hopefully gonna take Kels to Spain mid July for her b'day and i'm also looking at a poss trip to Bulgaria (Sunny Beach) early August for a poker tourn as there is a good chance i can get free accom there. Need to plan things like this to keep me motivated to play and give me summat to aim for. Got some other good shit to look forward to as well with a few mates which is cool, i've just gotta get my nut down and play, laters.

The End Of An Amazing Trip



I've been home for four days now and back to realitay after what has been an amazing 14 week trip to Oz n NZ. Its ok being home, i'm fine with it atm and its been gd to see Kels and my family the last few days and hopefully i'll catch up my some of my mates in the forthcoming days n weeks. Its incredible to think of some of the places i have seen and some things i have done in such a short space of time much of which i havent yet blogged about but i will do soon. I honestly do not know where to start there is sooo much to write about and i have a few thousand pics from my travels. What a fun fkin tastic adventure.....

In Australia I went to Melbourne, Airlie Beach, Agnes Water, Rainbow Beach, Noosa, Brisbane, Surfer's Paradise, Coolngatta, Byron Bay, Port Maquarie, Newcastle and Sydney. In New Zealand i visited Christchurch, Kaikoura, Picton, Nelson, Marahau, Barry Town, Franz Josef, Makarora, Queenstown, Wellington, Taupo, Auckland, Hahei, Raglan and Rotorua.

In Oz I sailed the WhitSunday Islands snorkelling some amazing parts of the ocean with incredible coral and sea life and explored White Haven Beach (Lonely Planets top ten beach in the world). I done a three day two night self drive camping trip on Fraser Island (biggest sand Island in the world) and swam in Lake Mckenzie. I went to the Australian Open Tennis Championships, played poker at the Aussie Millions in the Crown Casino in Melbourne and went to the races at Flemmington Park. I travelled up the Great Ocean Rd and visited Phillip Island. I learnt to surf in Agnes Water, Noosa, Surfer's Paradise and Byron Bay and went on some beautiful costals/beach walks and runs as well as some wicked bush hikes. I went fishing in Noosa and Port Mac, checked out a hippy town called Nimbin and finally met my 'idol' Mr Kennl (massive online donkay). Sydney was incred, the Opera House, Darling Harbour, Rocks Market, the famous beaches, fk me what a place. I watched The Prodigy (one of my all time faves) perform live in Newcastle and also went to watch two World Championship surf events in Coolngatta and on Bondi Beach in Sydney. I fed Kangaroo's and Emu's and saw some amazing wildlife like Koala Bears, Wallabies, Giant Turtles, Penguins, Stingrays, shit loads of colourful birds and fishays, big fk off lizards and insects etc etc and met sooo many different and interesting people from all over the globe. There is probably a bunch of stuff that i have missed out from Australia but NZ was just as good if not better...

I swam with a pod of 150-200 Dolphins, went Cray Fishing and also swam with wild Seals in Kaikoura. I kayaked alongside and walked through the Abel Tasmen National Park and climbed the Fox Glacier in Franz Josef. I Bungee Jumped the Nevis High Wire in Queenstown (massive buzz) and Sky Dived Lake Taupo which is the size of Singapore! I done the Tongariro Crossing (Lonely Planet's top ten walk in the world), climbed Rangitoto volcano in Auckland and went Luging in Rotoroa. I abseiled/climbed one of the Glow Worm caves in Waitomo and went White Water Rafting down the Kaituna River going over the highest commercially ridden waterfall in the world. I saw places like the beautiful Lake Wanaka, Punkaki Rocks (Pancake Rocks), Cape Foulwind, Mirror Lake and Huka Falls which can fill an Olympic sized swimming pool every three seconds. I went on a couple of good Mountain Bike rides in Raglan and Picton, went on a few more of my little runs, walks and bush hikes and also met a shit load more peeps, alot more than i did in Oz.

There is so much i could write about tbh and this is just a kinda summary of my trip. I will be writing up my entire journay in more detail in the future weeks if any really gives a shit but the posts and pics will mainly be for me and my memories. Tomorrow i start to play poker properly again and i'm kinda semi looking forward to challenging myself and starting to rebuild my roll again. I did play abit online whilst travelling and also played in various casinos in Melbourne, Sydney, Auckland and Queenstown with nothing much to shout about losing about $1k ish in total. I basically need to get my nut down and earn some $$$ as my poker and life roll hasn't been as low as it is now for a long looong time. I'm also owed a ton of money atm which is not good and i sort of feel uncomfortable about that but there is nothing i can do right now, its outta my control. I'll be making regularly updates on my progress this month, hopefully i can play and run good, laters.
