Sorry its been a while.. ive been playing alot of the Caesar tourneys and 2 festa events.. Last Sunday I took 4th in one for 11.. Stuman123 was there and was shoving every hand but I couldnt get anything going.. I won a nice one on UB on Wednesday.. it felt good to win a tourney, its been like 1.5 months and im really starting to buckle down for the end of the year. Last year at this time is when I went on my tear, and this year will be no different. I played the 1k heads up tourney at Caesars on Friday.. I drew kenna James first round.. I played really well and then had AA cracked by 10-10 when he was short and AA<10-8 for the tourney…. overall I thoguht I played really well and I just know im going to pop something off huge soon. I started counting up my buyins for this year and Im down 40k+ live this year.. The tourenys really add up when you have cashed in 1 tourney all year… I feel like im playing really well, ive been super patient and waiting for good spots/ hands.. but they just havent been coming.. I think Bel0wAbove went like 30 straight WSOP and WPT tourenys without cashes.. then he won a WPT title, so maybe I can do the same thing:).. I feel like im super motivated and playing sicko, a major is gonna come soon.. I just know it… As for live poker ill probably play some Caesars mega-stacks next month along w Venetian deep stack events… should be a fun month of November. Im still working on my PCA seat, hopefully Stars starts up some doubleshootout sats, cuz i have my biggest edge in deep stacked sngs. Best of luck at the tables./

1. Questioning how someone can be with someone who is going to ” gamble all of your money away”

The whole ” lose all your money” think probably ercks me the most.. Thats why I am mostly associated with poker players and pepople that play for a living, because they understand. If you think I want to play poker for a living for the rest of my life you are sadly mistaken.. Its simply a tool to secure my future, family and myself. What are your plans for life??? Also, I enjoy the life poker has given me, just because you are miserable and can’t hold down a job( fucking sucker) quit trying to bring down other people with you.. It seriously really pisses me off that people cant be happy for others. I guess jealousy is natural though. I also think its hilarious when people try to tell you what you should be doing with YOUR life… Thats the greatest thing ive learned through this whole poker journey, you get people that love you when your on top, but once you slide down that rock a little bit they are nowhere around.. One of my goals in life is to not have to work for some boss that im probably smarter then, or for a company that is ran like a concentration camp… I don’t want to wake up and get to work by 9 am and hope my boss isnt mad at me for god knows what reason. I busted my balls for years in some shitty ass jobs just tryin to get enough money to live. I don’t wnat to do it again. Just because you have no future plans, doesnt mean you should bring down others with you. If people don’t like you for who you are, then there is no point in even trying to meet them. Ive already exceeded my expectations in life and I havent even started yet.

On September 27th Doylesroom.com is hosting a tourney with a prizepool of 250k. There are 10 bounties at $1000 each and for anyone who has not yet played on Doylesroom.com I can tell you depositing couldn’t be easier. I made a credit card deposit and within minutes I was in the action. I also talked to their customer support and they even have a “live chat” support function that really helped me with recovering my lost password and learning about the site itself. As for the play, it is very soft. Most smaller sites are incredibly soft and this site is no different. Expect this tourney to have a huge overlay so if you have nothing to do on September 27th make it a point to check out this tournament. There is a link in the forum section so if you have yet to sign up for Doylesroom.com take a second and do so, this tourney is too great to miss.

They’ve got a 110% first deposit bonus too:

Just finished my first personal trainer session at the local gym here in Las Vegas. It was intense to say the least. I’m sure in a few days I’m going to be sore in spots I didn’t know existed. Currently my weight is 207 which it has been at for about 6 months. I’ve already come a long way considering a year and a half ago I was around 240. I think having a trainer there to push me will help me in the long run to stay healthy. On the poker front, I have been taking days off like they are going out of style. I am going to Chicago to visit my lover for a week so it’ll be good to get away from the game and just relax. Other than traveling, I got a staking offer for the 2500 FTOPS which I may accept, if not, I’ll definitely play the full load on Sunday and try to make some money.

Congrats to Spadeskillz, Icallseat3, Striker1114 and BigHuni for having huge weeks on the virtual felt. Spadeskillz has improved so much over the last few months that I think it will help my game as well. If you haven’t checked out Scott (IcallSeat3) Sitron’s blog you can find it here. He is the only player I know that I will willingly admit is better then me. Best of luck at the tables!
