Yay and Nay!!!

Sorry about not getting back to you the last couple nights. I've been forgetting, plus I was rather exhausted last night, mentally exhausted that is. I played in a million tournaments the last few days combined and I had some successes and some failures. I was very excited because two mornings ago I won a tournament. I ran into the kitchen and gave my mom the hugest hug ever after it occurred. The very next morning I made another final table and came in second only in the winner take all tournament. That's okay though, I still gave my opponent a run for his you know what. Bad beats, turns and rivers not cooperating with me, and everything could have been different. I'm good enough to win every tournament I enter because I have the skills necessary, but it doesnt happen because you can't help how the cards fall that's for sure. I went to Amazon earlier today and I am probably going to buy a few poker books. I already have mastered no limit hold'em, so I think I will try my hand at Triple Draw Lowball, Razz, and Omaha 8 or Better. Those three games I don't know very well. I tried to teach myself once upon a blue moon but that just never happened the right way. Anywho, got to go! Another tourney about to start. Til next time! See you at the felt!!

Avenged! Avenged!!

I feel like I have avenged myself lately because I have totally done what I knew I could do today. I played well back to back days. The last two days I have played very very well and I feel glamorous right now. I really feel well. I am ecstatic and fearless. I could go for a skinny dip in the nearby lake and just scream until my throat goes dry. That is how glamorous I am feeling right about now. A second place finish late last night and a third place finish tonight. I feel excellent. Keep in mind there were hundreds of people in these tournaments, so it wasn't like a little sit n' go we're dealing with here. It was the real online experience. He He. I think everyday I play more and more I'm just going to get better. I have already built up a reputation in Club Bluff which is where I play, and they don't want to face me at the final table because I'm considered very dangerous. I love having a reputation like that, makes you feel important in life. So I feel as though I have avenged my bad play within the last week and the last two nights have been excellent. Just wanted to share with you that. There will be another installment tomorrow night. Til then, See you at the Felt!!!

Ohh Laaa Laaaa!!!!!!

Another day of poker, another day of success. Moreso this time around. Entered into 14 online tournaments today and made 3 final tables. So that means about a quarter of the time I was doing well. Seems pretty good to me, I'll take it! I almost made 5 final tables, but you know how it goes.....you go in with the best hand, then you end up drowning on the river. I had to be revived at least twice today it was that brutal. But that's just how it goes, I mean you win some and you lose some. I told my mom how good I was and she believed me right away. My dad also told me that he thinks I'm one of the best players out there. All I need is the right platform and I'm there. I'm trying to get sponsored but it's not that easy. Hopefully someone will read my ad that I put out and will come and see me play sometime and see just how Doyle Brunson-esque I can be. He He. Anyway, hopefully something happens real soon. If not, then that's always okay because I have a lot of years left to live and a ton of mileage left in these tires of mine. Read my next blog, it will be pretty interesting.....til next time. See you at the felt!!

Trick or Treat On the Turn

Howdy there my poker savants. This has been a day full of bad beats so far. Well, in reality, there has just been one, since the first one was a trick job used against me. My opponent used my own slickiness against me wouldn't you know it? Not only has the river card scammed me this week, but the flop has been rather horrid I shall say. You think you have a good hand, but the whole time you just have the screws that hold the "nuts" in place. Meaning that the nut hand is what they have, but I would happen to have the second best the whole time. That's just how the cards fall this week, but there is still a lot of week to come. "The true sign of a good player is one who knows to fold a monster hand" That is one of my favorite quotes uttered by Texas Dolly himself and one of my idols Doyle Brunson. It is probably the truest thing that has to do with poker too. And I have been learning every second of every day the longer I play. By the way, I am going to write a book one day and i'm going to title it "Trick or Treat on the Turn" I am naming it after all the bad beats I have had once the turn card has fallen. Well that's it for today, I have plenty more tourneys to play and one is about to start. Another installment is tomorrow. See you at the felt!!
