Bored of revising

Well, my head is in the literature books, and I've been playing poker to remedy the boredom.

To be honest, I'm still finding my feet these days with regard to what stakes and what kind of games I should be/enjoy playing. I think I have definitely come to the conclusion that for the moment the $3 18 man sit n gos are my most profitable.

Although my bankroll is nicely over $400 again I've had an epicly bad month with regard to the cards. But as always this can be expected. Where I have run fine and still lost big is in the 2p 4p cash game in college. After deciding no more rowing I was hammered for pretty much a week straight snd drunkenly asked Matt Gamble if I could be Advertising Sec. I also came up with a brilliant slogan but Matt the miserable bastard wont have it (see bottom of page). So this time I intended to have fun and break even. Wishful thinking!! After a series of celebratory all ins 10 BI were pissed down the bog. Fucking fun though. :)

Elsewhere a good mate of mine called Tom, who only started playing about Christmas time just cashed first in the $4 180 man tournament on stars, which is pretty damn impressive seeing as I only taught him the basics and about odds. (And to be honest nobody needs to teach him how to bluff because he's insane.)

Anyways...just want to get these exams over with, watch Italy wipe the floor with everyone at Euro 2008, see the girlfriend and start whoring the bonuses after I get off the disease that is Pokerstars. Oh and I wasted 500MPP to get a T-Shirt. Moment of madness but to hell with it.

Update.

Wow, it's been a veery long time since I posted. Truth is, I've not been playing that much until this week. Had to take some out as finances are naturally crap with the amount I eat and the rowing which I'm giving up next year (Get in) so i'm on around 360.

Right, lets get to business. This week the continuing trend has been the $3 sit n gos, but have moved down to 6 man, as they're all crap and each win gets me $11 dollars a piece. I've also been researching sign up bonuses for next year as I intend to whore it so badly i'll hopefully be at around 2k by the end of next year. Managed to get a job in the summer in an envelope factory getting paid 7.14/h which should fetch me close to 3k when i get back, which means no more financial worries and a shit load of poker! I do intend to play more cash, but to be perfectly honest my online cash game is shoddy.

today I'm moving up to $6 to see how it fairs, as I'm getting bored of $3 and start to tilt when I lose, thinking that I should win everytime which is clearly stupid, but hopefully i'll break even and even make a small profit.

Exams? just, lol. Will pass all of them apart from my literature modules. Beacause frankly, theyre shit, and as about useful as Bradford City FC.

Reet, hope all is good, ciao x
