Back

The cruise was nice. The ship was way bigger than I expected and they had great food selection. I would eat like 6 meals a day and then go to this place to watch sports. I watched my dad play a couple of 10 mans no cashes. I would of easily won despite the horrible structure. My favorite spot was Bar Harbor where I picked up a nice Yankee pullover. Since I got back a got a shitload of homework to do for school, which I want to get done before the MLB playoffs. My fantasy team got there first win and are now 1-2.

Now 30 minutes ago i entered a .05 .10 cash game and 5 dollar 9 man. In the 5 dollar i was dealt 18 hands saw 4 flops including blinds. I got all my money in with 19 outs and missed. In the cash game i would of been up to close to 12 dollars but my Aq coulndt hold offA2s preflop when he flopped the nut flush. Im currently still in that game up 1.50. Ill probably post again Wednesday.

Peace
Matt

Im Leaving in 1 hour

We are going on our cruise in 1 hour. I m not thrilled but Ill take the vacation from school. Just a quick blurb about this week; I actually won a 6 man tournament and stayed even since I didn't play from Wednesday on. Last night I went to a 19 man 10 dollar tourney. It was a good structure and the play was bad. Unfortuanately for me I was at the way better of the 3 tables. I couldn't catch a break. I would get hands like A10 6 handed and it would be raised or reraise after I raised and i had to fold. I couldn't hit a flop either. I went out when i flopped top pair from sb and the bb trapped with AA. I won a side game to get some back, I really wanted that win to break out of my struggle, but I'll have to wait till next time.

YANKEES CLICNHED!!!! 12th consecutive trip to postseason and 9th str8 division. Im pumped, and the Giants have a big game this week against the Seahawks in which im 95% sure i can wathc, that made me real happy. Im going to read Erick Lindresn book on the way up.

See ya in a week or so

Down More

Im officialy down on full tilt. Im at 169 and started with 171. So in this current losing streak Im down 115. Just the same as last time wrong hands at wrong times and i can't win a pot. My friend and I have this bet since we are both running so bad the first to win a tournament gets 15 bucks, this might take a year or two, or i lose because i go broke. In some actual good news the Giants had a sick comeback yesterday. They were down 17pts. in the 4th quartehr force overtime and won on plaxico's td catch. I was going crazy, that was a key win. My fantasy team is likely going to be 2-0 bad luck there again, no running game plus I always find that one opponent he has a sick week. However I did pick up Larry Johnson for a rb and that should help alot. Im going on vacation Saturday so Im hoping to play a MTT before I leave and pray to the lord i can actually cash for the first time in like 2 months. When I get back the next time I'll actually play will probably be Columbus day weekend. Ill try to get a post in before I leave, but I will definately have one for when I come back.

Lets hope my luck changes
Matt

Just Worse

Thats right down 78 since Saturday. I cashed in one thing. I can't win a pot or hit a draw. Im not playing my best and since Im in this streak Im tilting in some spots. So I haven't cashed in a tourney in about 6 weeks. My account is down to 213.88. I will probably have to do what I did before enter a 45 man and pray to God I can win like last time. Im playing short short session in the week if playing at all. The next I can really play is Friday and that is the last time I can really play for like 3 weeks, since Im going on vacation.

Kill me please

What The Fuck Just Happened

I just lost 30 bucks in cash games. I was feeling good, and decided to play the Gus Hansen super super aggressive style. Lost 5 when my bluff failed. Then I rebought picked up AK against a steaming opponent who had A10 in an 18 dollar pot at .05 .10 789 flop turn J. Im drawing dead out another 5 and would of been up 8 and out of there. So the next 5 I have 98 on a 828 board turn gives me a flush draw we get it all in, so if I win im even he has 22 for the cooler. Then I try to make a play with AJ lost 5 there and the next 5 I steamed off. The next 5 I got it in in a flip my 33 vs. his A8 I win this Im only down 12. JJQ flop turn K river 8. Im out 30 buck and my account dips to 251. I now really need to FT a 5 dollar. I played a different style which actually was about to win me a nice score, but didnt work out that way. Im now done with cash games and back tu HU and STT, MTTs. I won't be able to play poker probably to next Friday. Im pissed off tha I just blew 12% of my account. Oh well thats the way it goes sometimes.

Till Next Time

School and Poker

Well school sucked, teachers are ok, but not in some classes that I wanted. Lot more work than last year so that sucks. In poker Im over 300 dollars. I got my first release for my sign up bonus of 17.10. I have been playing alot of PLO8 hu matches and been doing very good. In tournaments though no luck. In my last 5 tournaments I have made it to the 2nd hour but not past. Today, I played teh 6pm 5 dollar. I got up to 2k but then lost a pot which got me down to 1580. I then virtually doubled up with 99 vs. AJ. Then 30-60 button limps I raise in sb with AQ to 180 bb folds button calls. Flop is A5Q rainbow. I check he bets 60 i flat call. Turn 3 I check he bets 60 I reraise to 300 and he takes forever to call. River 9 for no possible flushes or str8s. I raise to 420 he reraises min. I think of jus flat calling but decide to push in his last 1150 he calls and flips up 99 for the two outer. I then double up against this guy with KQ vs. A2s when my top pair of Kings hold off his flush draw and make first break. Then first hand after break i have 1010 utg i raise to 360 leaving 1500 behind me. The button thinks for a while and then raises 900 more. It gets back to me. I think for awhile an don't believe he has an overpair, I actually thought 99 or AJ so I go allin he calls with KK gg me. For the 5th str8 time no cash, but second hour. I got to change this and get deep. Im done today and probably will play a bit tommorow.

Yesterday was the first big day of college football. The only real good games was Notre Dame Georgia Tech. ND didnt nothing offensively until their last drive in the first half and trailed 10-7 at the half. They got an early TD in the second half and never looked back. I picked ND to win the championship this year and to beat West Virginia who I think is the second best team in CFB. The NFL starts this Thursday and Im pumped.

Im not playing that much poker after tommorrow since of school and then driving school /football on weekends and then after driving school Im going on vacation and won't be able to play again till almost October

Got homework and playing a tournament
Peace
