Behold - here will be some stuff from live game! Soon! [not now, obv.]

As a large number of europeans, I switched from FullTilt to ongame network. To TowerGaming. Well, if that's all true about those bonuses they offer - I will never look back. Except for some tourneys and some star's ass busting.

After about half a year I will finally play some live pokar with unknown dudes - local forum makes a cashgame tomorrow, so You can be sure I will post a review here. Should be interesting. I promise!

About candy... no candy - don't know why, none of my browsers [firefox, opera, ie] want to let me upload files. This shit must end! Buy me a laptop!

It's all about the "X"

Here'e the question:

Couple days ago in one of rooms I had x amount of money. Now I have 80x. What is "x"?

Ultimate Poker Face [not associated with UB in an way]

Well, this is interview with Gorgoroth frontman Gaahl [Kristian Espedal] . If You have no interest in black metal, just skip to the 6:24 - this is just awesome. Two and a half minutes of silence and zero movement.



I guess interviewer shitted his pants, when Gaahl looked at him after that world class pause.

On other note - some interesting words about Power Hold'em Strategy - I think You should read them before spending any cash on it.

Grinding at work is impossible

At least for me.

Went busto.

Thanks to FTPoints rebuilt to 140-something.

Went busto.

Someone, please, buy me a laptop.

Pissed.

The secound round gathered 209 entrants with only two of them getting a ticket.

I busted out 4th, when, being second in chips, I clashed with chipleader. My A9 was good vs. his KQ until the river, where the fucking king arrived. Fuck! Three damn hours, making plays between work and hiding from the boss'es eyes. FUCK!!! I am pissed.

But proud of myself a little, too. It's a shame I didn't get any material goods though!

I hope Mikey wins this.

Hah!

I won a freakin' 450-man freeroll and got a ticket to 2nd round of Main Event Race. Isn't that nice?

Update. Damn update

Nothing really has changed over these months. I'm still without computer, but playing at work suck so much, that I don't enjoy it even a little. Still I managed to try the new Poker Tracker software and I am really stoked - it does the job faster and better and the hud looks good. When all this shit will end, I will buy this one for sure [I will even get a discount due my PAHud purchase earlier].

I am forking on new project, what will hopefully end our [I mean my family] struggle and will put things right. This is project I really love and if all works out I will send out our best beer to fellow bloggers, who found a time to say some good words to me over the past year. If I forget it - remind me!

Still I manage to play live poker at work about once a week. These are great times - have fun and make money. Of course, money isn't that big, but it's something.

Just a moments ago saw a video with well-known-poker-pro-from-DUKE. I just can't figure out, do I want to laugh or cry... hah.

OK, later.

And that Rizen's post over 2p2 about signing with UB!

There's just some days, you're feeling that damn life tilt more strongly

Today I felt so fucking tired of all this "no-monies" life, that has been an issue for me for last four months, I wanted just to get drunk hard, even it's friday's mourning and I got to go to work. If I had some money, I don't know... There's just some days, you're feeling that life tilt more strongly.

There's good news, though, too. Girlfriend found a job. Weeeee! So after a month or so I will have some break. At least I hope so. Also there's a possibility to get a computer via my work - a good one, with 24" monitor [no, I don't think here about multitabling. I am thinking about designing I will be able to do at home and earn extra buck], 4GB RAM and some hyper videocard. But, as we say sometimes here in Latvia, "hopes are stupid man's relief". Or something like that.

Oh, and there's an extra - long forgotten lease company finally remembered me and now asks their funds back. Today gonna make a call to them and will try to talk my way through. Hope it works out. In big picture I even don't know, what they can do to me, apart of braking my bones. Nothing really. I have nothing.

Stay true.

Nothing really...

...cause I still have no computer at home and play a little from work now and then.

Just had a little thought about rake - in 3200 hands this month rake took 35 dollars. That means I pay 1c for every hand I play. That's a fucking ripoff, if You ask me.
