100th Post

This is actually the 102nd post, but Nate has made the last two posts and he obviously failed to mention such an extroadinary benckmark in our blog. I have not been updating with any kind of regularity for reasons outside of my control(Vacation, Drinking, Going to the Lake, and Extreme Laziness)....I have been doing okay lately, nothing major, but I am staying away from ring games for ahwile, giving SNGs and MTTs a good run for the time being.

I have had some decent cashes, best being 11th out of like 1350 in the $5.50 Turbo on Stars, got like $60-70, but pretty dissapointing seeing that first was like $1500, so when I say decent maybe I mean okay...I had a good run in a $10 + 1 on Stars got 35th out of like 1200 or so...I was doing fine only to be rediculed towards the end by a horrible player/play.....I was getting shortstacked, but still probably had 7 or 8 people under me, so I needed to get some chips b/c I only wanted the final table, not just a cash...I raise 4 bb with 77 from the cutoff, and the small blinds calls....He checks into me on a 10 8 5 flop...I KNOW my hand is good, so I drop all in with a slightly more than Pot sized bet...He thinks and thinks....Time bank kicks in.....think about it some more...So even further I know I have the hand and don't care if he makes a call with two overs...Anwyays, he decides after the max time Stars gives you to make donk decisions that his A4o is good....I don't know why he even called the raise PF, but of course the turn and river brought 3 2 to give him a str8 and I'm done...seriously? WTF...I get so sick of that shit, I play seamless poker for almost 4 hours and am staring $3.5k inthe face and get shafted by some idiot who won't be able to take advantage of my chips...Enough crying about the shit, I just hate it...

I have played a lot of SNGs lately...to me a lot anyways...I'm not a big fan of them at all, I am just trying to stay away from the cash games for a bit, and I have had very nice sucess in the SNGs lately...Played some $50+5s one tables with good results and have multi-tabled a shitload of the $6.50 Turbo one-tables...I don't even really like these and you have to have a big sample to have a decent profit, but seems all you have to do is play really tight, get your chips in one time with the best and have it hold, then you should at least make Top 3, but I found myself getting a few 1sts and a lot of 2nds(due to my psychological trouble with Heads-up play as of late), but I will get that str8ened out...

Going back to the lake tonight as soon as I get out of here, so no poker tonight, but tomm. I will probably make a final table, I deserve it and have been playing well lately, so its coming..

Going to drink as much beer as I can tonight watching and then shooting fireworks, so I will try to update tomm night or Wed. Later
