Ellooooo

Hi, lately i have been watching a few docs on bobby fischer. I find him quite fascinating it scared me a bit because i saw some of myself in him and obviously he was / went a tad loopy at the end. I especially share his ‘’need to be the best’’. I don’t know how ‘okay’’ it is to say that especially in poker because it’s hard to quantify who is the best ,although obviously the overall thought is that it is the g himself mister Phil Ivey ‘’shout out’’. Since I was little I never really saw much point in doing anything unless I could realistically see a chance of me being the best at it. I would eventually like to be considered one of the best or one of the best at this in the world I’m not saying it’s realistic or that it will happen I don’t think its unattainable though. I see poker as this maze or chess game when I lose I don’t care about the money I just want to destroy the person. I don’t have game selection at all and I am aware it’s not smart if Phil Ivey called me today and wanted to play at the highest I could afford to play in my BR I would instantly accept it wouldn’t be to brag about beating Phil Ivey as we’d have to play for ages to even know who’s better (and obviously its him) I guess more to learn and I find it completely fascinating how he is so good but yet he has never done poker stove or ran EV calcs (at least i assume?)

 I feel I think about poker in a far different way to all of you, I don’t feel i think very ‘’technically’’ about it when someone asks me why I do x thing I find it hard to explain it other than ‘’I just know’’ kind of thinking clearly people on DC that play 400 may have a better knowledge or technical knowledge of x spots in poker than I do it kind of hurts my pride a bit and makes me feel stupid although I never really tried to approach poker in that way.   

Hand for you, guess my crazy as a mf image is good? Random guy played one hand and left never to return again well actually i saw him playing 200nl the next day..maybe he was drunkys.

Apparently some people in Greece trashed the citibank place there im just going to call karma on that... poker in feb is not going that well down like 60k online but ive actually had the most fun playing this month in ages i've had some super interesting matches with people at 10/20/ 25/50 i feel like my heads up game is getting a lot better slowly.. i think i'm best at 6max currently but heads up it more fun. I have played some 5/10 /10/20 plo and im having heaps of fun playing plo as its so new to me but im a big underdog in any midstakes / high plo lineup as i suck but hopefully im getting better,..... note to self buy PLO holdem manager.  Im currently doing my bet also but honestly i've been neglecting the fuck out of it i went up to a huge lead winning almost 2k but went to losing back down to 1.3k playing 200nl sooo back to the drawing board on that one. Oh yeah i had a dream i won a big live tourny for 2 million it was sick hopefully that will happen this year :D
This is a missclick what happened was i was arranging tables and one table was overlapping or something and i couldn't see the river so i knew i had a flush saw he went all in clicked call then was shocked when the pot got shipped to him sigh :( oh well GG him he insta left so what a nice Russian he was.

Seriously fuck banks, first citi bank loses my 55k i have to wait three weeks to see it again it then disapears for another two weeks. I transfer 300k into my usd account after having a meeting with a personal banker and discusing my  needs i discused with him i play online poker and i would be getting wires from them and putting money on. I go to deposit again today and after having five phone calls with their steller call center they reveal to me that they ''cannot morrally allow gambling transactions'' what the actual fuck are you smoking you dickheads...  no online poker for me until my wire goes through to get my money out of citi bank

has anyone else used a citi bank to put money on a site?

sigh

OMG 911 EMERGENCY live life update... dont play nosebleeds plo when you suck at plo but is it really that bad if someone calls 18k on the river with KQ78 on J7QJ8 with a flush on board sigh sigh sigh sigh sigh.

seriously though sigh

ending life brb.

If i am ever on a golf course talking to my friends how i only fuck my wife once every two weeks and they all laugh in agreement and pat me on the back and say ''its like that for all of us son'' im straight up killing myself on the spot. 

SIGH THE REALITY OF LIFE

Thank you dc couldn't of had the year I had without the help from the people and great players I've met through this site. Been an awesome year for m poker wise and of course money wise been one of the worse personal life wise but whatever. In 2012 I would like to do a lot buy a house make a documentry  attend school make two million I guess well see if i can do it.

Whatever you wanna do in poker you need to just work hard and take it, you work harder than phil Ivey you'll be better than him one day. Don't make bullshit excuses about how bad you run yada yada cause that won't help you. If it hasn't happened for you yet it's likely you just didn't work hard enough so decide what you want to achieve and take it ( make small goals and big ones)

Hope you guys had an awesome nye I've been crazy sick so was unable to do anything sigh

GL in 2012 maybe you all become cash money millionaires 

I thought i was a mad genius at PLO, i won about 40-50k on Christmas day but i've lost back about 35k turns out my awesome one pair call downs only work once in a blue moon so my dreams of being phil galfond have left left with my non jewness and being to skinny to be phil g you are still my hero though bro.

anyway this is what happens when people/fish that normally play 10/20 go on a sick heater and decide to take it all ( three stacks of high society please) to the table style

Slightly late but hope you guys had a good one, i fucking hate the food they give you at Christmas that turkey ugh kasjdfkdsjfdjs the only good part is those sausages with bacon wrapped around them they are fucking perf why don't they just give you just that? id be happy. I was thinking about how fucking lucky i've been this past year but also how i fucking kinda hate my life and im definitely not happy but then i was thinking that's ridiculous cause im eighteen and pretty much freerolling into a sick life but then i was thinking ''omg but you are in love and she hates you omg hate yourself you dick'' then the correct side of me  ''wtf no you aren't you dick stop being a wanker fuck that bitch you only miss her amazing blowjobs anyway fuck'' i think 2011 has been awesome poker wise i honestly never thought id have this much $ this young and i feel so fucking blessed but at the same time i really wish i wasn't such a cunt to all the people i cared about in search of this ''poker dream'' bullshit i kinda fucked things up with some amazing people and this balla girl but whatever such is life.

Hope santa brought you some awesome shit.

Oh and as its bound to happen anyway

Mitch go away.

Had an iPad for about a day now, to be honest was kinda skeptical about them but now owning one they are definitely very useful. I actually have not used my laptop all day quit rare for me. It's so much better to browse the Internet with its insane.... Looking at hands on dc is 10x better.....

Anyone got any appa they feel are a must have?

Ps if anyone wants to play words with friends.

So my mum comes up to me while im watching some t.v and goes ''you know what James, i've been thinking... you and all your poker friends are pretty much like unemployed people with shit loads of money'' awkward.
