B Daze, Chimay, Tell me again what is today?
This was the week of my B Day so I was definitely worried about staying on pace, and what my liver would look like by the end of today. Oh and for those keeping track, by week I mean Sat thru Friday for blog purposes. Went to Dave and Busters on Saturday, had a good time playing that dang Horse racing game they got with Mike N.. You pretty much sire a horse, hit 2 buttons during the race with one hand, while holding a beer in the other. Boy I love that place. Tues went to Reposado with the wifey for my actual B day dinner. Wasn't to impressed. Wait was what I imagined the line to get into heaven looks like, and the food was meh at best. Something about fancy Mexican food just doesn't seem right. Tacos El G FTW. Took down The Stable tourny last night due to a suckout with the good ole 5 9 off, which is a pleasant turn for me lol. Poker was pretty standard again this week, as I am still running like dog poop but have managed to keep the losses down and, man my game has improved a ton. Ive almost gained a 1/4 on my non showdown winnings, while my showdown winnings are down due to the ev line on my graph looking like the damn continental shelf. Ev isnt that huge a factor as I always have been able to have winning months even being below all in ev, but as an example I fired two shells with middle pair about a million times time today against some station knowing I waas good, and checked back the river only to find the guy hit his flush about 80 percent of the time lol. My best skill though seems to be raising limpers who have 20bb in front of them having them call me and I hit top pair with like ak. Only problem is these guys have a4 and the flop comes a42. Hmm I dunno what the odds are there(ok I do) but I don't think limp calling hands with 20 bb is a good idea eh? (unless ya got aces, or you have the superuser codes on UB ):p. On the most important note, I am still ahead of pace on a week I didn't play 2 days, and I am not worn out, or the least bit worried I can't do this. Every day actually gets easier, but let's see how I feel if I run bad for 100g hands lol. It has happened before and will happen again. I suggest you look up the standard deviation sights to see what I mean. Still have a few leaks like not 4 betting agro regs enough but I am working on it. Still missing value in some spots but thats a price you play mass tabling. I think working out everyday has been keeping me sane and feeling good, and I recommend to any grinder that it should be a top priority. It gives you energy, releases stress, and breaks up the day. Maybe I'll be the first Mr. Olympia, and SNE ever.........uh ok never mind.
