| Hello all, In previous blogs i mentioned how things were running smooth, and how everything was clicking. However, the common saying remains true: Poker is a tough way to make an easy living. No more no less. At the time i write this, i been through one of my worse streaks this month. Bad beat after bad beat, adds to anxiety and bad play and results on my own self tilting at the virtual tables, making me wonder when will this bad streak end??? I have no clue, no idea. All i can do is take a short break, play some other small games and have some fun. Relax and enjoy life is something i don't do often enough as poker often enough requires you giving 110% of yourself. But it is necessary. Therefore today i slept till afternoon, went out to eat a nice and yummy Japanese meal at zhong shan park "long zhi meng" shopping mall, went groceries...came back home...arranged things....and ordered some delivery food which should be here shortly after. As for playing, if i do any, will be just some low stakes sngs for fun. I must admit that it isn't pleasent to be around me when things run badly. That is one of the bad things of being a poker player. Your mood can ride like a roller-coaster, and having someone like Nana is really a blessing. I feel bad for her to having to deal with me when i run bad, because i am honestly not the nicest guy in the neighbourhood. And yet, she understands me and helps me out.... So what is in the future? To be honest...no clue!... of course we make plans and goals in which we hope to achieve, but we all know that it is much easier said than done. If things just ran as we had planned, i would be living today in a mansion eating caviar and taking bath on champaigne...yeah...that fancy hahha...but unfortunatelly i am still eating KFC and using normal shower gel soap :p hehe...i do shower everyday if anyone is wondering ;p But pokerwise, it is best not to put my expectations too high, and take each step at the time. Keep working hard, finding my mistakes and be prepared to fight at the poker battlefield. If i can accomplish that, results should show naturally, and even if not achived the way i expected, know that i gave my best. That is all i should expect from myself. And for that, GL to me. | | |
| Greetings!!  As i have mentioned past blog, i was having a good run at the pkr tables, and starting maybe 3-4 weeks ago, i began a new mission....1000 sngs at the 15+1 turbo level. Now, i was never much of a turbo player, but inspired on Zee Justin....i thought i'd give it a try. After studying for a while some concepts of sngs, and trying to find the best strategy, i finally put it into use. At the moment i write this blog, i have not yet finished this mission, but i am pretty close to do it. I have played exactly 750 games for a profit of 3500+ (just for sngs), roi of 29% and avg per sng of 4.6 -- THat was enough to put my at #1 spot at sharkscope leader board (www.sharkscope.com) for 1 week, and still keep me at top 5 at the moment i write this. This is very flattering to have my name recognized, even though i have changed ID's. I get respect when i walk into a table, haha other day i had someone say "Oh no, you again, this sng is over already" hehe...but u know...for any players, there is much variance, and this 1000 sng quest really puts me to the test. How to handle the adversities and how to handle the bad streaks. I am very proud of myself for holding so well and this hows i am a constant winner. I have migrated to another site for cash, ever since i learnt abt their 100% rake back deal. Put 300 bucks there to try,and in 4-5 days won 200 back just in rakes...not to count my account is at 900 after putting 300...games there pretty soft....so i should close this month +5000 since i had a good run at cash at ftp as well....not sure...everything is clicking.... I have plans to move higher soon...onto the 25+2 sngs, but sometimes feels jsut confortable palying the levels i am...since money keeps coming in... as abt studies...LOL @ me...i am just not good at studies at all....went a few times to the Imp exp class...but seriously, not my fault, the teacher only speaks chinese...FAST...and furious...with lots of business terms...i am always so lost in the lectures...i already predict i have 0% chance of passing the exam....i am a loser.... The pics are not ready yet...yup...taking long time promise when they ready i will post it.... aight...peace.!!! | | |
| Yesterday Nana and I took our wedding pics....i think they will look nice...but they won't be ready for a month or so....so whenever i have some of them, i probably will post some on either facebook or orkut. Next week i start some courses in import and export. My dad's friend is like..the general manager of a big company...and he said after i take this course, i can work there...well...not sure how well i will take studying again...as you know...i am not much found of studying anymore...however this is a good opportunity to learn...gotta think long run i guess... Talking abt long run...on my last post i had mentioned that 20cents was up to i dont know...150 or 200 bucks? Well...20cents now is up to over 9,000....yeah...i had some good runs...ups and downs with more ups than downs...Recent results include a 1st place in a 22 omaha hl, 3rd and 5th on a 22 NLH, and a 14th finish on WCOOP horse event...it was sad because i really thought i would go all the way... But even though i am up a good amount, i am not satiated yet...well...although i must admit that my life is rather stressful than peaceful as some might imagine...poker is a game that requires so much brain...in general, no one is much better than the others....in general...(the pound is still flooded with flounders), but small edges WILL show who are the ones who makes it or break it. I have sepearted most of my BR for next year when Nana's parents move to shanghai, to start a small shop...most likely some kind of snack from their own province.. Future still looks glazy but write it down....this is the year obstante Makes and Break it!! Peace!! | | |
