Quality poem Sir, as someone who likes to write a bit too, thats some achievement to get it all in sync with the weird wonderful world of online poker terms, look forward to the next instalment. Posted by Oopnorth
Haha cheers mate. I'm gonna try and do one everyday so you shan't have to wait long... I'll try and make the next one a tad shorter though!
like it like it like it like it like it like it. you get the general idea.... where this goes nobody knows. great game this poker so hit and miss highs and lows jacks and jokers. u say donkeys i say a** your go mate fold or pass. my aces v queens got cracked twice tonight double your money don,t think so honey not very funny. it,s getting late time 4 bed enough said.!!! dev :-) Posted by devonfish5
That's pretty good Dev. FP! It seems I have a bit of competition. :P
So I'm continuing to run bad (at least, that's my excuse) and if it wasn't for the C4P that came through today I'd almost be down to my initial deposit. I wouldn't say I'm running terrbile ATM but I'm definitely not running good! Aces and kings seem to unequivocally fail for me so I think I might just fold them pre-flop and shove with 27o instead.
Played around five MTTs and only cashed in one for a profit of like 20p - big money! Also played a couple of DYMs, just to offset the boredom of when I was playing one MTT at a time. Didn't cash in either DYM - again, it was a tale at constant beats. I also played a bit of NL4 in the night, but there's nothing really to say about that as nothing interesting happened.
I'm happy with the way I'm playing though so as long as I keep doing what I'm doing I should see profit soon enough... I hope!

Just a short one this time...
Give me a couple af aces, or maybe just kings, Surely I'll be good with these, But it appears not, as I always lose the lot, C'mon poker gods, let them hold just once, please?
These fish call with deuce-seven, they win and they're in Heaven, They love the spin of that roulette ball, But it's OK, I can handle these beats, I'm playing poker after all!
Ok, today was a better day! Played a bit of cash for a while and ended up breaking even but, played two £2.30 BH tournaments in the evening and came 3rd out of 300-ish runners in the one! Actually got quite unlucky a few times in the tourney but managed to hang on. Then on the final table bubble I managed to get a tripple up (which is always nice) and then got my aces in against AQ which put me way above average. The final table bubble itself though went on for ages but when we actually got to the final table people got picked off fairly quickly. My exit hand was pocket 6s which the BB called with tens... so pretty standard stuff.

This poem is a tad boring... but I'm tired... so yeah!
Today was a better day, Perhaps im turning round this bad start to may, Binked a final table, Ran over the weak and able, Then went out in third for a decent pay day,
The competition wasnt' bad, Surprisingly, there weren't many beind rad, Got a few heads, From the fishies on which I fed, But from then on there weren't that many to add!
My eyes have now gone square, From the screen of which I've stared, I admit, this poem is boring, But give me a break, I'm tired; almost snoring! So I bid you all good night, I'm off to bed ('bed' in a Scottish accent... sort of rhymes! xD)
nice going El.. keep it going, :-) dev ps;likeing the poems mate, i,ll through in the odd 1 now & again, when it,s not to late top marks 10/10 Posted by devonfish5
Cheers Dev.!
I've been reading your diary/challenge thready too BTW. DYMs can be frustrating at times, but I'm sure you'll see profit soon enough!
Only played three tourneys today and a bit of NL4. Standard stuff all round... My aces got beaten by 86o in the one but after cashing for a decent amount last night this didn't bother me too much. Wasn't happy with the way I played in the third tourney though (3.30 mini BH)... I managed to get a big stack early on (due to a big stack donk shoving with every hand so all I had to do was wait for a big hand and limp, and he'd shove over me), but I think I donked off a lot of my chips by being overly aggressive. My exit hand was fine though. I was all in with two others with AQs. The one guy had pocket 6s and the other had pocket 7s so I was in good a position to tripple up but it wasn't meant to be...
No poem tonight as I'm going away for a couple of days and have to pack... gutted right? Doubt I'll be playing much (if at all) where I'm going as the wifi will be quite erratic, but if I do play it will just be cash.
Also just finished reading 'Kill Everyone' which is IMO a very good book for those willing to get better at tournaments. There is a lot of complicated stuff in it though so I wouldn't reccommend it to people that haven't been playing long... but yeah, tis a good read!
Some of yours rhymes Should be listed as crimes But good luck with the poker n good luck with the odes I hope you're rhyming gets better and you win loads and loads

Yeah, I almost folded but I figured I was ahead or your shoving range so had to call. UL though, I would have done the same in your pos!

Had a go as a high staker

Should be listed as crimes
But good luck with the poker n good luck with the odes
