Watch The Throne
What It Do DC?
I've been pokering a lot less in the last month. I played a WCOOP event yesterday, and busting in the 3rd hour sometime, lost a big pot for most of my chips with KK<QQ on a T53 Q x board for like 7sb pre/flop 2bb on turn, 1bb on river. I had a piece of Bellatrix as well and was railing her and saw her get into a capped pot 3 ways with AA vs QQ vs TT on a T77 board where she and the QQ were driving all the action, the TT must have loved his life.
I've gotten away from PLO, I feel like big bet games really arn't my thing. I've been playing some TD as I chat with Schweig, Orestto, and Mitch a lot, and they are all pretty good at the game, Schweig especially! I'm also picking up a bit of LHE again, and I really cant remember why i put it down... it seems to be a game that i really understand.
On the real life front, i took a trip down the Oregon coast a couple weeks ago that was a great time. I went with my wife and another couple. We had a casino right by the house, so I got some poker in between day trips and home card games etc. I didn't do anything spectacular while at the casino, but i played NL for the first time in a longtime, and didn't do so terrible.
I'm probably going to be giving up the glamorous life of a professional online poker player. I've been hit by FTP and AP for a few K, and with less games it's been harder to make it work. I've also struggled with PLO and had a bunch of breakeven months. I'm going to keep playing, obviously, but I've been working a bit more as a custodian, and also getting resumes together for teaching-type jobs. We'll see how that all works out.
Anyways. be well.

Hahaha I'm terrible at TD.
Also thought you title was recommending me watch some "The Making of Game of Thrones" type show.
