Rollercoaster

Well today I can’t win for shit. From very good but short days to almost zero positions in the money today with mostly small margins. Headsup flop twopair 95, the other guy flop twopair 96. I have a hard time seeing how these extremely different results from day to day come up. I refuse to think it has something to do with how i play differently. Worst part is the game is still fun today which might make me lose even more. Last three days almost got erased. Not down to disaster levels but guess I could reach that too if I just let the fun of it roll on. I should realy do something else tonight…. practice Magic or something.

Birthday

July 27th, 2008 by diprogan

It’s my brothers birthday today so estimated number of games is…few. Did get one down though and won it. ROI 354% again. I’m starting to like these microplay mornings. A win in the morning gives a good feeling for a big part of the day. My play felt realy solid, wasn’t very much to think abot at all. The guy in the headsup might have bluffed me once or twice but it all came down to preflop allin AA vs KK, quite uncommon headsup wouldnt you say :D Sucked to be him :)

EDIT: This day totaly disappeared in the heat. I think I slept/passed out 4 extra hours from it. I did howerever notice in time that I hadn’t played my weekly game at Partypoker to maintain my multiplier level so I went in and owned a 10man $11 SnG to make todays ROI a whoppin’ 404% haha.

Hot!

It’s too hot to basically do anything today and yes i still live in Sweden, we get those days too ;) …but i’m still at a whoppin’ 358% ROI…after one SnG haha! Nah it’s a slow one today. I have accepted my position at Gothenburg university today where I will be studying “Social work and public administration”. English translation is a weird one on that one. Think social psychology or something. Maybe i’ll get some games in later on when the heat is down.

Small but satisfying

Played a few games today. Mostly STT6max $11 since it seems to go better at the lower stakes these days. Earlier i felt the other way around but i will focus on stability for now. Earning between $50 and $100 a day is totaly ok so I can stay “down there” for a while. Todays ROI was 177%. I’m noticing a lack of interest playing as much as I did before but since the hard cash is what maters and those are ok there’s no shame going astray for a while. I’ve been playing some Magic the Gathering again and it still holds a certain charm. It will be fun to do some irl cardplaying soon hopefuly both kinds.

The return

July 24th, 2008 by diprogan

Well after a few disasterous days where I realy doubted it all I had a realy good one today. Short but very nice. Almost $200 with a 255% ROI. I didn’t feel like playing at all after that and why should I? More value to having a good feeling for the rest of the day knowing I earned enough to live for four more days.

I will probably let the iron man status go, keeping up with 200 Full Tilt Points for 25 days a month (i think it is) will just be too much work in the long run at $11-$24 buyin. Maybe if I go up in level later on. For now i’ll just go with gold status.

I received my withdrawal from Partypoker today. Don’t know what reason they had to go with the low dollar exchangerate they did, market being a few cents higher but 5900 SEK from a $1000 withdrawal is ok. It also happends to be the amount I had deposited total between Partypoker and Full Tilt so everything from this point on is just gain or god forbid an even break. +$1750 so far.
