Hey all, I decided to finally create my own blog because well I think it will be good for me and I want some sort of accountability to myself, even if noone else reads this. I also have become tired of the forums as they are usually about attacking people(sometimes warranted but more than not unwarranted) and not about strategy in poker with the exception of the new Pokerroad forums created in part by Barry G.
The main reason I wanted to create this at this moment is because I am at rock bottom and I have always worn my emotions on my sleves and I can handle the criticism. Anyone can create a blog after winning a tournament and while I have had some success over the years the last year has been brutal, partly due to running bad and MAINLY due to bad financial decisions when I ran well. I know I will be back on top (sooners than later I hope) , and I just wanted to make sure that I started this blog now while I am down so I will appreciate it much more.
I have a lot of confidence in my game and how I am playing but to say that I am playing my best poker would be a stretch. I am staked by Elky for the moment and I hope that continues because not only is he a sick sick player, he is a really nice guy(weird for a frenchman imo). I cashed 26th in the $322 today on ftp and cashed in the $30r plo, & super turbo. I ran god awful so I guess that's an ok day even though I lost $; I am still in the $50 r as I write this(18 of 61 with 70 bb's so I'm in gr8 shape). Tomorrow is the big day in online poker and I'm feeling a shipament somewhere(hope that feeling isn't gas) I will post some hands tomorrow as I am just beat up at the moment.
On a side note my Sooners got past a very gritty Michigan team and are on to the sweet 16 to face the winner of the Syracuse/Arizona State game. Both are good teams but Cuse matches up very well OU so I will be a sun devil fan tomorrow.
EDIT: Ok so I am out of $50r as Solhomer decided to raise utg with 89h i 3 bet QQ in the BB and he called and he flopped a flush draw and called a bet then turned me dead. Sigh, we'll get em tomorrow!
