Hotter than Hades
For the uninitiated, the title is derived from a great school paper.
On to the poker meaning of it. I ran tremendously good last night. Over about thirty sngs, I had a ROI of 80%+ Ended up close to 800$, playing the 6.50s. I'm going to continue playing the 6.50s until 850-1000$, depending on how good I'm feeling and how well it goes. I hate moving down, so I want to have a good amount of buyins for the 15+1s. A friend of mine uses the 100 buyin rule for turbos, but ain't no way I'm getting to 1600 on 6.50s, no matter how well I run. I think I'll start the 15+1s in May.
I've also been thinking about the purpose of this blog. It started out as a thing among friends, and we posted about it on liquidpoker.net. It was kinda funny with Jon and Ket and Serge still here, but they all kinda abandonned this blog after I did. Jon still posted something once in a blue moon, though, so kudos to him.
But anyways, as much as I'd like to write about fire-breathing dragons, dangerous escapades at 5000/10000 NL, and Grim Reapers, I can't do that. Unless I lie.
There is one blog that singles itself out from all the other ones - The Law School Dropout's Poker Blog. He plays fairly high-stake LHE. He dropped out of law school to do it, too. It's a good read. I'd start from the beginning, but it's long, so it would take you about 10 hours total to read it through. If you've got time, though, go for it.
Still, I don't play 225 turbos, or go to live tournaments and crack Phil Ivey's aces. My writing skill is classified as 'Is this supposed to be a joke?' by my English teacher, and my funnyness levels, although generally high in real life, go below 0 online. My poker insight, deep as it may seem to me, pretty much stops at 'push pre'. So, where to go from here? The first thing to do might be to get some readers. I have a feeling this is kind of like that time I was shoutcasting some TANL matches (online StarCraft tournament) and when I popped into the console to check how many listeners there were, I saw there was one. Better than none, you might say, but that listener was me. I forgot to turn off the stream on winamp (though that was muted, so I didn't hear myself in my headphones).
So yeah, time to start publicizing this thing. You can help out by telling your friends.
Keep on donking the turn,
Mike
