Lets see, I stayed up until like 9am and went to sleep and woke up around 6pm. I decided to play the 1k and the 100 rebuy on poker stars. I got my money in vs k4dd on a 8j4, 2 diamond flop for a big stack but lost. I think im not even a favorite but who calls an utg raise with k4 lol. In the 100 rebuy I flipped 10-10 vs aq and lost. I then watched some family guy and the office on tv and fell asleep around 10-11 pm. I woke up at 2 am and here I am blogging.

I probably wont play all week because I have hockey games today and tomorrow and Friday I might do some stuff with friends plus I still need a phone and I need to get a haircut because of easter. I still suck at nhl 08 despite playing for like 3 hours total. The games pretty rigged imo. I haven't really been motivated to play because I mean I made more then the majority of people are going to make this year in 3 months and I pretty much completed every goal I set for myself. Also when I put in low volume every bad beat sucks and I can't get myself to get motivated to play a $55 donament or a $30 rebuy for such little money. Its dumb I know but thats just how I feel.

I also still haven't made an appointment with a cpa and I have no idea how this is gonna work because I have no idea how much I won/lost last year and the spread sheets the poker sites sent me are sketchy. I think I'm going to NJ for some halo 3 tournament in early april to be some coach for my friends team. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do but w/e Its something to do. Also I asked my friend to make me a website like 4 months ago but he just asked me today if I still wanted him to. I guess hes gonna link to his site or something but w/e, hes almost done I think and I don't think it will be much different. It would be xxjondxx.com.

I wasn't going to play any mtts on Sunday because I had a hockey banquet but I woke up at like 5pm. So I jumped in a few majors and ftp had their monthly million so that was cool. I also played the ub 200k, 100 re, 215 hu matches, 2nd chance and mulligan. I was in for like a million bucks in the 100 rebuy and went out in like the 3rd hour or something. I made a deep run in the ftp million but got short stacked and shoved a6 into aq. I think I ended up down like 2k. Buchsbaumy asked if I wanted to buy 20% of him in the 200 rebuy, which I declined and he obv went to finish 3rd. Congrats to him :), grrr.

I might be on a 10k swing over the week which is funny because I didn't play much. I pretty much played the big tourneys over the week but I didn't cash for anything worth while. I haven't been into playing much and I think a lot of it is my sleep schedule. I am staying until like 7-9 am everyday therefore I wake up at like 5pm every day. When I wake up I feel pretty tired and never feel like playing.

Ran out of stuff to type.

O ya, I bought nhl 08 so I prob should become the best in the world before the hockey season ends.

I was thinking about how the hell I am a winning mtt player with so many leaks in my game. Also I was thinking about why my ftp stats were so bad. Duh, I have 0 post flop skills. Ftp has a much slower structure so instead of being 20 bbs deep your really like 40. When your deeper stacked you have so many more options. On stars or ap or ub(later in tourneys), your only move is gonna be to shove it in. Or shove a lot of flops or turns. If your deep you can't get your stack in the middle as easily. I like having a set range of hands that I can just shove without any thought but if I have to see a flop I don't know where I am a lot of the time. I tend to check call down way too much when I have no clue how to play when Im too deep to just shove. This is pretty much just me rambling but and I dont know where I can pick up some post flop skills but it makes sense.

Also another thing about post flop play, its as easy as fuck to play post flop with huge hands. I mean its hard to fuck it up when you cant lose the hand no matter what you do. In all the tourneys I have won or gone deep in I just get hit with the deck to build a huge stack. I either flop big hands or am dealt aces a million times. Im sure its not always like that but for the most part I think it is. Lucky for me everyone else sucks worse at poker then me and I can some how win a tournament every so often to make some money.

Haven't played much, i played mon-wed nights for the 1ks and stuff but I didn't cash in anything. I ran pretty bad and I think I'm playing ok. I probably will play Saturday but not Sunday. Kinda tired and not feeling good even though I'm not sick anymore. I have to call some tax guy and set up a meeting or w/e and I still need to go out and get a new phone. I'll also probably pick up nhl 2008 even though the seasons almost over.
