John, where is your next live comp?

Not sure mate, hopefully the 300 this weekend, but need to talk to Nicola as I have a 500 ticket and no idea when i can use it otherwise... if she wants to give me the other 200 in tourny credits ill do my best to bust and rebuy or to bust and play the incredible 100.

Other than that, no idea I think I have like 1 week in the UK between Jan and MidApril so looks like the UKIPT/ Genting and GUKPT are safe from Mr Black atm.

Gonna stay with John for a few days and teach him how to crush Smiley
dont undo all Patrick's work so far.

Confirmed, arrived and setup.

Some more..

1. So the bed is the bed our mate was supposed to be staying on if all 3 of us needed to room last night...  Turns out I didn't and had a reason to come home.  So think the two of them spooned on the normal bed.
Woulda been funny to see him on this though, its horrid.

2. After the J4o hand the other day and the person in question being present I decided a better way to spend £50 would be to buy a bottle of Jager and ship the shots to everyone!  Turns out every random skank female in the vicinity senses the bottle open and they all came running for free shots.... seriously? GTFO!
However while I was busy trying to schmooze and so on, I left the bottle with my trusty boys.... only to come back and find them pouring into each others mouths and the second half of the bottle had been severely damaged. (read - not there)

3.  This is Callum N 'Justinsayne' grinding on my kitchen table...
Apparently just crushing 100nl for 20bi's TODAY... its a tough life when you flop sets and people pile in money with A high.... #mbnbro


We're on for a McDonalds visit now I think... laters.

Why would you ever have a single £100 chip when you could have 5x 20 high £1 towers???

I've regularly gone to the cashier and said "errr excuse me, sorry I'm a child... can i have some tower building materials please?"

They always say "yes sir.."





Oh and the Reindeer antlers above were what I wore for the ENTIRE 25hour cash session.... Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I kinda like starting off a session with not many betting discs and then i feel a greater sense of achievement if i accumulate many later on.

Yeah, wasn't at dtd.. At the Vic or other suchlike cardrooms.

I once was so bored on 1/1 at 3am and had the table covered with a 1.2k stack but I had about 20 chips.. I was tilting everywhere.
Went downstairs with some of the £100 chips and got it all in £1's. Then built a 3bed detached tower with en suite for my cards to park in when I played a hand

2012

Joined blonde
Created a diary of all my exploits, poker and life - http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=56559.0
Started the online grind - binkmepls
Got a new grind PC and sick chair
Pleno offered staking, still going, currently in mu, but not a lot
Been between 25 and 10nl all year, now beating 10nl really well and should be moving up shortly
Not been very diligent with records however I 'think':
        Won decent in live comps
        Lost little online mtt's
        Lost little online cash
        Won a little live cash
        Improved un-measurably through online 6max cash grind
        Studied a lot, analyzed a little

Won at my job
Lost at relationship - might be a longterm win, sample size is too small
BE at family life, need to put more effort in next year
Lost with Car
Won at nights out
Lost at keeping fit

2013

Get through 25nl, 50nl, and have a 100k graph of winning at over 1bb/100 at 100nl in 6max cash games online.
Play 1 million hands of poker in 2013 alone.
Played over 100 online tournaments, improve my theory in mtt's.
Take annual leave and go to at least two live events for the duration - UKIPT/ Genting/ EMOP etc... preferably one in Ireland.
Make 5figs in live cash, have a dedicated £1/2 roll and be moving up/ taking shots at 2/5, even bumhunting live 5/10 (heard of a soft game somewhere).
Keep up with the diary and crush the opposition.. most importantly keep the honesty and the openness of it.  It's a strength imo.

Keep crushing work, potentially go for promotion - more stress means less poker... Sad
Be under 90kg in weight (ideally 85kg) and regularly playing both tennis and the lets go to the gym games.
Have cooked real meals for myself more times than I can count on my appendages.
Vegas trip (have enough miles) and come back in the +ve $$.
Beat Alex 'irunsobad' Goulder in the 3some challenge - rules and referees to be decided.
Help my friends to survive 2013, potentially pull some of them away from degen-ing away....
