Giggidy 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 This was posted in LHE - there's some looooool awesome names in there I think we're talking across purposes.fwiw you were in a dream of mine the other night. A pandemic was wiping out of most of the population and I was playing HU SnGs vs you, beaverstyle and a couple of others from FCP. I thought I was dying of the disease at the time but I think it turned out I was going to live after I won a couple of the SnGs. I woke up feeling sick, all round a very weird dream.This is good to waste time:2+2 thread on best screennamesLOL Link to post Share on other sites

YTD graph upcoming, safe to say that after being the inaugural recipient of the [x] cwik'd award, I'm probably the frontrunner in 2009 to repeat. Link to post Share on other sites
Giggidy 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Just spotted this on the Borgata blogSteven Weinstock, back with his (washed) lucky yellow PokerStars shirt, and Trevor "Tremomey" Savage, are two of the big stacks at their table. Steven has 260,000 and Trevor has 383,000. Tremoney tells us that he got it all in preflop with A-K versus Q-Q and got a flush. Link to post Share on other sites

dtblizz 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Ok so 10K posts holla!!! Obv its going here in the cthread. I won’t try for anything big because Rdog totally owned the soul of every other 10K post imo. So I’ll just honor a couple of requests:I was asked to post about my poker journey a little. You can read probably everything in my well, but basically I ‘went pro’ with no experience just some money saved up and a dream. I sucked for about a year and was going to have to quit poker because I was one of those people that just felt like he was SOOOO unlucky because every time I would bluff they would have it, every time I had top pair they had a set, etc. I was treading water at best at 1/2nl. I was already well past the 6 months my wife had given me to show I could be a winning player. I went to Vegas with a few of my poker buddies and my last $1500 and decided to luckbox the crap outta my first ever WSOP event From there I got some coaching and got to know some really good players who helped my game a ton and got me to where I was respectable. I’m a big believer in personal coaching for that reason, it’s what changed my game the most.Some shout outs. First off, I’d like to say thanks and I love you to everyone in this thread, it is what keeps poker from getting old and boring. I love to play poker, but I love the camaraderie I have with my poker friends 100X more. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.Holla out to:Rdog (You and I are like the matriarchs of the cthread. I guess I have to be the woman huh?)Bull/Cubsfan/Jordiepop (Like the kids I never had or wanted)Tb17 (back in the day, you were like the kid I never had or wanted )Acid (one of my best poker friends, I always enjoy you telling me every day how you can’t lose at poker )Kinger/Snamuh/Zimmer (I like you guys)Suited/chgocubs (I like you both too, go cubbies!)Mln falcon (I’ve always liked you because I’m a huge SW nerd)Lobster (How the heck did you get so many posts in so short of a time here?

Without her encouragement of me to just jump in and play and faith in me to always make sure our family was taken care of, I would have quit long ago. She had to suffer through some pretty hard times. I’m not really into breaking stuff but I’ve smashed a lamp, smashed a phone, and kicked a hole in a wall (all on the same day ) I’ve taken wayyyy too long to learn to leave work at work so to speak. I’ve been moody and generally been a horrid person to be around at times when things have gone poorly. But she has always supported me and especially the last two years, she really has gotten good at recognizing my mood and knowing exactly how to make me happy and not say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Pretty much every day I think to myself, How can anyone do this crazy job without the support of a great wife? I know I couldn’t. My best friend Chris was just in town and left a post it note for me on my desk. He also has been my biggest poker fan (even more so than Shannon). Shan saw it and left me a post it note too a couple of days ago on our 13th anniversary. I leave you with the picture that cheers me up every day. I hope everyone in this thread also has people in their lives that make it worth living like I do. I thank God every day for how blessed I am.Hugs to all, wet sloppy kisses to checkymcbadjeans,MarkPS - Holla at not having to have that stupid Cantu staring at me anymore hollllllaaaaaa! I suppose I can meet you and buy you dinner at Foxwoods sometime if that's what you are implying? Link to post Share on other sites

mln_falcon 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Assuming it is different opponents what is the most tables of HU I should try to play?None, HU is for suckers. I play at least 2 usually 3, sometimes 4.Nice.BTW, HU sucks. Been hit and run 4 times out of 5 opponents.See suckers, go back to 6 max.remember how i was talking a few days ago about how cake got extremely program laggy out of nowhere? i noticed last night when i don't have full tilt open it's only about half as bad./tinfoilhatThe other day I had a bad day on Stars. I realised after the session that I had left FTP open from the sig match. Coincidence?I think you are also able to change your sig if you want. Link to post Share on other sites
