talk about over exceeding

alright guys lots to talk about so buckle up.

i think i posted about 5 days ago and with in that time there has been some very interesting turn of events, mostly dealing with poker. so in my last post i said that my winter goal this time was to make 20k in 6 months and the last time i posted i had 18k and it had only been 4 months so things were going really smooth. well i was hoping i could make another 2k just so i could reach my goal but i would be fine with my results if i didnt. anyways this is how this last week has gone. i think the first day after i posted last week i ended up making 1000 which was pretty awesome the next couple days i broke even which was a little lame but no biggie the next day i was down a couple hundred and decided to do the nightly tournament that they hold. you have 12k starting stack with 20 minute blinds and starting level is 100/200 its an ok tournament for the first couple rounds but after that it turns into a crapshoot pretty much. anyways the tournament had 105 people and i was able to make it to 12th before busting out money paid at 10th :( so the main hand that decided my fate went like this everyone folded to the button and he bet 2x the big blinds with about a 10bb stack, i had about a 13-14 bb stack in the bb, the small blind folded and i picked up 9 10 of clubs. now at this stage everyone is fighting to pickup the blinds and i knew that the guy was kinda tight but i still know he was buying for the blinds and felt if i shoved here he would fold most of his holdings and if not i still had a decent hand with equity. so i shoved and he sighed and called and showed k 10 off, its been a while since ive played tournaments but i think that was a bad call. anyways he held up and i had like 2 big blinds left or somthing the last hand to do it was when it folded around the the button and he shoved and i called with kj of spades and bb also called and then the button called bb had kq off and button had A10 kq ended up catching his card on the river to knock both of us out and so i ended the tourney on the bubble pretty much. 1st place took 1800 so i feel confident in thinking that i could have won if i won that pot with the 9 10 of clubs.

anyways that brings us to yesterday. to cut to the chase i had my second best day of poker since playing and this is what went down. i actually started off the day a little bad and was down 400 in like 2 hours. and then i was able to double up and had a stack of 1000, after the next 8 hours i got smacked in the face by the deck repeaditly and kept getting paid off and i was making big value plays and getting paid.

at that time i had 2k infront of me and the night was only half over. i kept winning and at the end of the night at the point of each section on my castle i had a green stack all the way up which would have made for a better picture. so last night i made 2200 and ended my winter with a profit of 21,800$ which i am hyped about. add those winnings to my winnings last winter and i now have a bankroll of 34,500$. needless to say i couldnt have ended any better and im looking forward to next winter and getting into 5/10nl

after that me and a couple friends went out to the club in the casino to cellebrate my last day and started kicking back the drinks i ended up hitting on a couple girls and one of the girls was into me because she started qualifying herself to me. i didnt persue it though cause i was having fun with my friends. at about 2 am i was very very drunk and stepped out of the club and went to the bathroom where i threw up lol i walked outside and threw up a couple more times. im a light wieght as you can see. so i made it to my truck and drove home and crashed....haha jk i did go to my truck though and i passed out for about 7 hours or so. woke up hungover as fuck and headed home. i get suuuper bad hangovers which is one of the reasons i dont drink that often anymore. after getting home i had consitant trips to the bathroom where i would throw up even more. after about 5 hours of being home i was able to start drinking water and eat a little bit. at this point i had to do some last minute cleaning before i moved out and i had to try and get done before 9 which is when the storage place closes and i couldnt park my truck before i head to the airport. i ended up finishing my apartment off at like 8:50 and headed to do a last minute errand and then headed to the storage place. i got to the storage place at 9:20 and had to call the people to beg them to let me in. i felt bad cause they are an elderly couple and they were asleep already but they are nice people and let me in. after that i called a cab to head to the airport. the cabbi was actually a pretty cool dude and we talked a lot about poker and everything inbetween, pretty much just a cool dude. so now im at the airport still hungover and i have about 6 hours before my plane boards and im off to newyork for a week, then after that im flying straight to alaska.

i dont know the next time ill post but it should be withing the next couple of weeks. i should have some good stories though and plenty of pictures. so untill next time cosmonauts, stay tuned :)
