A rant, a goal, and a reward
We left off with me final tabling a big tournament, and making 6 figures on the year. Wellllllll, things aren’t so cheerful right now. Lets begin.
Things kick off with me getting seasons 1-3 of Entourage in the mail on Tuesday. I watched all of season 1 while I grinded, and won $1k. I was kinda tired, but was talking to my boy Pete (the one that went to the MTT with me, and my new potential manager) and decided to begin season 2 and see how games were. Well, I found a 68/32 at nl2k, and was on top of the world. So I sit down, and 2 more fish are there! Shippp. Then I lost set under set, TP vs a rivered 2 pair and QQ v JJ that hits a set in a 6k pot. Mehhh. I end approximately -$5k. I never realized Entourage Season 2 cost so much. I lay down and try to sleep but to no avail.
I eventually fall asleep, and wake up at 1pm on Wednesday. I tried to go back to sleep at like 3, but Kayte and 2 of her friends walked in the door. She whined about me getting her a car.. I laughed a bit, and then decided to look for cars for me. After calling my buddy Brett, I got talks of a loan started. The car I found was like $3k overpriced, so I looked again.. after a bunch of us went to the Maumee River to check out the scenery. It was a fun walk and was nice to get outside. We get home, I get back on autotrader, and found a used car with 30k miles for $20k after taxes. So, as of Wednesday, say hello to my new baby. A 2006 Nissan 350Z:

So we get home, and I go to Pete’s at 9:30 or so.. and grind a mixture of 2/4-5/10, and win $100 or something. We play in our homegame, I win another $180 at .5/1, and we watch the WSOP stuff. It sucked seeing Dean bust, because I met him at the HPT event and he final tabled it with me, so seeing him lose the pot to Marquis was sick. I decided to 2-table 2/4 HU and got rocked. KJ allin against K9 on a K234, river 9.. all that stuff. I dropped $2400, but grinded back to -$1k and called it a night.
This run bad/play bad thing has caused me to make a goal (or punishment) for myself. I’m playing 2/4 and only 2/4 6-max until I win $10,000; I’ll keep the blog updated daily if I can, and after day 1, I found myself up $2,500. Maybe this goal won’t be so bad after all…
I’m busy this weekend, Chelsi and Trina are coming up for a Halloween party and I can’t wait. Trina and I are going as Adam and Eve, and I can’t wait. She’s absolutely gorgeous, it’s gonna be amazing. I’ll try to get pics up, I dunno if I want her on my blog with a bunch of horny poker players though
Peace.
