Well that was an eye opener, there where 800 runners and I went out 240 so i guess it was ok being that i started playing poker back in Oct. '09. Best hand Pocket 3's flop was 4,3,7 i check and he checks turn is a 2 i check he bet out 1200 i call, the river is a 2 he bets 1600 i raise to 3200 he shoves i snap call, he flips over 4,2. The bad hand we come back from dinner and i have 16.000 chips the guy to my right has a short stack he has been shoving the last 3 hand 1st time all fold and he shows j2o after that again all flod to him he shoves i have AJo i think a bit and fold he flips over AJo. next hand same thing this time i have AKs and i call, He has QQ im out. Played about 10 hrs and i had a great time.

Sick Little Girl....

Mackenzie is sick today have to take he to the Doctors today at 2pm, So I will be grinding tonight. I've been up and down this month but yesterday i think i got out of it. The month is almost over and I don't how many games I played but next month I'm going to set my goal at 1000+ games. We have some new students coming in on March 1st, so I have to pick up my game. I hope we have some reviews this week or weekend.

On a another note I will be playing in the Chicago Open Friday at noon, its not that big of a buy-in. I would drop that much playing that crap game Blackjack. I will keep you all posted on how I'm doing, this is a 2 day tourney. So I will be grinding from the hotel on Thursday night.

About my name Yomama1970, I have had this online name going back to 1995 when i played Delta Force for ISF. I thought it was funny to see " You where shot in the head by Yomama" Plus I like the Yomama cut downs so I will end my post with one....


Yomama is so dumb, I saw her climbing a tree the other day talking about how shes a branch manager.

Lending Money to so called friends

Well just don't do it because you become the asshole when you ask for it back. I lent a friend a $25,000 to start up a business about 4 years ago and its been hit or miss trying to get it back. The other friend I lent $800 to about 3 years ago and i go to his house about 3 weeks ago and what do i see in the living room?!?!? A Sony 52in plasma!! Hey nice TV, but where the FUCK is my $800? Well ah. What a fucking asshole!! Fuck you keep the $800 and fuck off! WTF?? You try to help friends when they are in a time of need and they FUCK YOU IN THE ASS and don't even buy you dinner. The guy i lent the $800 to has been blowing up my phone, fuck him i don't need the headaches. I have been friends with these two guy since 1980. And the 1st guy i hear stores about him going to Vegas, Florida and N.C. I say something and he sends me fucking $300. I also hear he helped out a kid we went to High School who is a FUCKING dead beat dad with a Job at the fucking business I helped him start so he could get his car fixed, FUCK that pay me!! I'v got my own fucking problems been laid off sence last march where the fuck is my help!!

I guess i just want to thank NICK RAINEY a guy that knows me from dick, who has help me get my Poker Career started.Who sent me my bankroll and has help other people start. Not to mention the people that don't play poker that he helps, like giving people cars that NEED one to get to work or take their kids to the doctors or the homeless guy on the street. I day I will do the same but NEVER again will I help out friends.

Thanks

Always do what the coach tells you.

Woke up and got online to start my day of grinding, coach said " Today's homework, start a blog, good for the mind and keep track of goals and your progress. When your check raising Phil Ivey in Bobby's Room will have fun looking back to the $2 180 mans." Well homework is done!! Now I have to help make cupcakes with my little princes so she can take them to class Friday to share, because she turns 8 Friday!!


I started playing poker in October so I'm new to this game, the first thing I did was buy the book "Power Hold'em Strategy" I got to the 3rd paragraph and joined PokerVT.com. I think that was my 1st good move in my short poker life. I watch a lot of videos then i saw what they call Sit-n-gos I didn't know WTF they where. Watched videos from Derk Williams, Grayson Physioc, Aaron Baron and Nick Rainey. I thought that Sngs where to fast and I didn't know wtf was going on, people shoving no one was playing what I thought at the time was poker. Then I found Nicks web site Rainmanpoker.com, he said he was looking of students to coach, cool i wounder how much he would charge? I found out not a dime, so i sent him a email. I didn't hear back so I let it go. Then I got and email from the great one and he said that i would be in the 1st batch of students. I would start the 1st of the year. But before that on Dec. 17th Nick said he would have a review with us but that he had a guess caoch to do it Bradley Soshea, he went over a HH from one of his games. It was a great review i was pumped after that, the next day I got up and played the $5 $20,000 turny on Pokerstars. 11hrs later I took that BIT*H down for $4000. Then 4 days later my coach told me to take all my money out and send a SS of a $0 balance. He would send me my bankroll after that. Now I'm on my way to the top. I will keep you posted on my trip to greatness. Oh I didn't forget, I got engaged on Feb 14 to my wounderfull GF Jennifer!! Life is good!!!
