PL Omaha........


Well first off i'll just mention i went rileys tournie my usual thing there...except this time i went out early, just card dead and just cudnt be asked to play as i was more interested in watching the arsenal game which was showing on big screen.
Now to Omaha, the Pot-limit variety. I've played a few very short sessions of PLO1/2 , 2/5, 6-table and 10 table. And god dam i totally luv this game, just so much action, big pots even tho its PL, and just more technical game. It makes a nice change to the usual NL Holdem I mainly play and i think its good to vary sometimes and try other variants of poker. I mean dnt get me wrong its not the first time i've played the game, but before i really had no clue about it at all. Just recently i've played it with a bit more seriousness and thought process (i think!!). I've posted a pic above of how PT says ive done so far, oh yeh and ive still got to pay for that as i just downloaded it to try it out for omaha.

Omaha Roll: $1.5k (click pic above If your blind or aint got your glasses on lol!)

Other things which has no relevance i suppose but i'll say it anyway, my back is killing me. I ordered my chair from www.Furnitureatwork.co.uk on 10th aug. And nope its still not come. Basically to cut a long story short there saying its delivered when its not, and just keep coming up with excuses. DO NOT EVER BUY FROM THEM!!! I spent good money for it.....ah well i have to put up with a chair which has no padding as its just so worn out i have to put pillows on bottom and my back for some minor comfort lol! Deary me..........oh not to mention i had my debit card fraudulently used online and waiting for natwest to gimme back my money lol!

Next blog will hopefully be end of the month showing how i've done overall in Holdem and omaha in Sept. Oh did i mention i played 25/50 NL in AUG wen i was on tilt!!!!!!! I lost $6.5k, and dont really wana chat about it in detail to be frankly honest!!. I didnt want to post it but i then i thought to myself, the whole point why i set this blog up was to be truthful to all the way and not 'chat brezze' or 'crap' to those who dont know the lingo......also to make sure i write in any significant wins and losses. In Future ill try and put it in near to when it happens. Ok im off to start playing, let the games begin........

Pocket Aces......


Went to the usual rileys on 18th, came 4th for £30. Was not at all happy tho, i was in the small blind and 2nd in chips with about 11k, big blind chip leader with we'l say about 30k. Everyone else folds so back to me and i raise 3x blind with AA, he re-raises me so i say ok i re-raise him back....and yes he puts me all-in. Guess what he turns over....K9o, i mean cmon k9o played in that way, when ive been playing solid and that kind or raising going on preflop!!!!!!! JUST A JOKE!!! So anyway i had a bad feeling when the 1st card on flop was a K, yep then 2nd card 9 to rub it in. No Ace followed and i was steaming. I finished my fosters and came home on tilt and played online which so wasnt a good idea, i ended up losing $1.3k. Bugger!!.......
I mean dont get me wrong ive lost with Aces loads of times, its just i gave him respect and does me with K9o. Muppet. Just like in the above pic!!!.......

A bad Start to september!!!



The poker gods havent been kind to me, and i think my bad phase is finally here, hopefully get through it without getting to scarred. According to my Poker tracker, im $847.35 down so far ( click pic above) this month, having been up $3.9k at one point! Back to grinding at lower levels i think for a while as im a little steaming. Other than that i really need a break, not just from poker but from work, life and i just want to get away and relax for a while. Tuesday was the usual rileys tourny, which i came 2nd for a whole sum of £60!! I was short stacked heads up with about 18k to his 60k!. I went all-in with K8o against J8o, and jumped up and preyed no JACK no JACK........yep the 1st card on flop.......A BLUDY JACK!. LOL Ah well nh gg wp.
