Welll you'll win that 6k guarantee and all will be good with the world...

Well, I don't really know what to say at this point. This month has brought me to my knees pokerwise and I'm extremely embarrassed to say that I lost about -$861.02 this month. Bad play on my part and bad play suck outs on my opponents parts AND sometimes playing above my BR limits has all conspired to really give me a dose of reality and humble pie. Even through this losing I have learned much I think and I have played some stakes that I have been itching to try for a long time and I do NOT regret that. I only regret losing at them, .
Lately I have gone back to SH Limit Holdem and actually started to feel like I know what I'm doing again. At least a little bit. Below, are the stats for today. They aren't nearly enough to make up for the earlier part of the month, but I'm hoping, (praying), that it's maybe the light at the end of the tunnel and that June will show me back in the winning column.

WELL WOOT...

Started the month off winning at least. Played a ton of mostly break even 2/4 limit 5max at PokerRoom and finished up that bonus. Was actually winning til MVP showed up and "MVP"d me.

Anyway, June is off to an, if not auspicious, certainly a winning note.

Had 2 incredibly bad, horrid days on the 2nd and 3rd. But then I had a decent good old fashioned winning day on the 4th and then today I didn't play a ton but did manage to win a couple dollars for my time. I even played a "new" game for me that I had only ever played with play money before. 1/2 Limit Crazy Pineapple at Paradise. I think I will be doing THAT more often as those folks don't seem to have ANY inkling of how to play it. I mean I'm new to it and still I know not to play bottom pair after everyone else has discarded and kept the best hand they can have! Sheesh! It didn't hurt things that I flopped quads twice in the 20 hands I played either! Once I even got paid off well when the other dude had top boat! SWEEEEEETTTT!!!! Usually it's me on the losing end of that situation. The second time, the other dude folded to my river bet so I didnt make all that much. Is flopping quads any more common in Crazy Pineapple than it is in regular holdem? If not, I doubt I will see quads again any time soon after getting them 2 times so close together.

Played some NL200 at PokerRoom. Just 1 tabled it to clear some points towards the bonus since the NL100 tables looked to be filled with tight ass bonus whores. Have about an hour left there to finish off the 7x reload bonus. Managed to pretty much break even but DID clear a nice amount of points for the short time I played just one table.

Did try some 1/2 LO8 at Paradise also but kept getting beat by this one particular dude who plays any 4 cards he got. Every time I would get ahead in the game he would catch a runner runner of some sort to drop me back down. I happened to be down a little when the table up and died on us so I took my losses and ran. That's when I decided to try the pineapple game.

Todays Stats:

PokerRoom NL200 FR, 96 hands, 90 minutes, -$1.80

Paradise, LO8 1/2, 53 hands, 86 minutes, -$21.00
Paradise, Crazy Pineapple 1/2, 20 hands, 26 minutes, $30.00

RB: $7.08 from WPEX. $4.48 from Will Hill
Bonus: 0

Bonus Progress:

Down to only 74 points left to clear the $150 7x reload bonus at PokerRoom. That shouldn't take long tomorrow. As long as I don't do anything tremendously stupid, that right there should make tomorrow a winning day for me.

I said in my last entry that I had about an hour left to clear the PokerRoom bonus and that if I didn't do anything tremendously stupid, that I should pretty much have an automatic winning day just from the bonus. Well, each of those things came true, BUT this stupid SON-OF-A-BITCH tried to spoil my day with his own stupidity and nearly succeeded! I started this hand out with a half stack because just the hand before this same ASS sucked out a runner runner flush to crack my AA with his A3! AARRGGHH!!!!

It's Crazy Pineapple time at the Dise. I need to relax.

Mainly because of the hand posted above, in addition to the one before it that mentioned in that post as well, I didn't finish up quite as much today as I had figured on. Did manage to still finish on the winning side of things though.

I started making withdrawals from a lot of the sites that I had substantial funds at in preparation for my upcoming trip to Reno and the Oregon Coast Indian casinos. Hopefully I come back with more than I left with.

Also played some more Crazy Pineapple at the Dise and those folks are still giving their money away. Was even able to win a little bit playing LO8.

Didn't do well yesterday and the day before, but today I made a good chunk of it back.

Cleared a BlackJack bonus each of the last 2 days which has netted me $80. Boring as hell but it's EZ money so far.

I did the 15% to 100 reload at Party and so far have cleared a little more than 1/4 of it and am up ~$80 as well so far from play. From what I am seeing at the NL100 tables so far, I may hang around even after the bonus is done because if the tables are this good when the whores are out I can only imagine how they are when there's no bonus working.
I'm seriously toying with the idea of going back to 1/2 Limit FR to build my BR back up after the lousy last month and a half I've been having but instead I opened up some NL100's to watch for a bit and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. SO, because I just couldn't help myself, I sat down at 2 of them. One of them I only managed a $16 win because they tightened up after I sat down for some reason. But the OTHER table was a whole nother story! I played for an hour and although I never got allin against anyone, I still managed to win a $107 before the table broke up.

Cleared another BlackJack bonus today and won again at Party. I could get used to this!

Going on a nice long ride tomorrow on the BMW. Friend and I are taking the bikes to the Tamarack Resort north of here to eat lunch and then circling around up through New Meadows and back down through Council to home again. Should be about 250 - 300 miles I think. No passengers for either of us, so it should be fun goin thru the corners!

Hey !

We sat at the same table at PP 100$NL this morning (at least it was morning here, around 1 am EST I think), you seemed pretty cold carded and we never got involved (luckily).

Anyway I would probably have stayed out of your way 'less I would have caught a monster.

/Cooper (Lucaz123 on PP)

Today as in June 12th? Yeah I was cold carded big time today. But now that I know who another BTP'er is, I'll look out for ya all the same.

EDIT:
ok, looked in PT and found you. Lucaz333. Looks like you won a few nice pots. That hand where you check raised the [Ts][Ac] flop, what did you have? That was a nice pot.

Yup, had a good session, only thought it was fair enough that you'd know who I am when I recognised you

I got really lucky on that one but I screwed it up a bit post flop.

I actually had AA, I probably should have weak lead that flop to make him reraise me. For some reason I checked raised him instead, probably KK/QQ.

Finished off the Party bonus playing PLO8 25. Won a little doing it to. Then decided to play a little 1/2 Pineapple before bed. MISTAKE!!!!!, I lost about ~$25 doing it. Damn.

All 3 of the casino bonuses I have done finally made there way to my NETeller account today. WOOT!

Now to just get my money out of Party and into NETeller and then into my checking account before friday.
