Ommos and I

Added by Ry on October 31, 2010 at 9:13am — 10 Comments

I get out of class. It's the first warm day of early spring in Tuscany. Joy. I walk around Florence. Walk through piazzas. Walk by the river. Apparently that didn't sate my restless soul- or maybe it just inspired it. I got and idea pulled out my eurail schedule. Walk quickly back to the pensione and barge into Justins room. He is laying on his bed with headphones on and reading kierkegaard.

"Let's go to Monte Carlo"

"What"

He pulls the head phones off.

"Let's go to Monte Carlo.… Continue

Haven't drank in several days. I'm quitting tournaments (hopefully). Even the sats. I don't like how they make me feel. And they are something that induces my desire to drink a ton. I don't want that…

Haven't drank in several days. I'm quitting tournaments (hopefully). Even the sats. I don't like how they make me feel. And they are something that induces my desire to drink a ton. I don't want that daily adrenaline rush. It gets draining. Want something calm, consistent. Like a job I guess...

Epic month

Right, I've been trying to figure out if I beat 10nl FR or SH (I'm actually pretty certain I do) because I almost have the BR to go 25nl. I am still learning more stuff whenever I have time.

So here's my month at 10nl FR and SH combined (tiny volume since I didn't play cash first half, it's about a week)

A Day in the Poker World: With Tania @ BOPC

Yesterday I spent almost the whole day on a little poker adventure. Tania (a good friend of mine, boyfriend's colleague, YouTuber...etc.) was invited to play PokerStars' Ladies Event at BOPC (Belgian Open Poker Championships) and asked me to go with her and cover the event together for the Friendly Poker Community.

We met really early in Antwerp to then go meet the lady who was gonna give us a lift to Namen, where the event was… Continue

a bit of Miller for Spas

"I have a friend whom many would characterize as an unconscionable rogue. A rogue he is, but a delicious one. A rogue who is closer to being on the path than any righteous man I have ever met. He does nothing for the world, and very little for himself. He simply enjoys life, taking it as he finds it. Naturally he works as little as possible; naturally he takes no concerns for the morrow....He is a connoisseur of food and wine who is never in danger of becoming a glutton or a drunkard. He…

How to beat NL2 just like Jakejenks

Just run good and cooler everyone at your table with 3 times AA vs KK (helding up this time) QJ on 6789T while the other holds a J and thinks you are bluffing.

There is money in 2nl, not everyone is solid! Some inspiration for new players

Heres some 2nl hands to prove that those "donks that call me down with anything and hit" can be beaten. Tighten your game and you can crush them.

Poker, go **** yourself

For real... this is the worst run of my life. You probably won't believe it but if you want i could give all the hands. I have lost my last 3 AA preflop all ins to respectively AK , KK and another KK. Also lost many many MANY other hands where i was a 80%+ favour.

This are only the last 20k hands and it's all NL5 and a bit NL10.... I dont know what to do .. Roll dropped by another $100+. This is just sick variance.…
