Purpose of blog

I am not sure why I keep this blog any longer. As a matter of fact, I may go dark.

After some good run on the virtural felt, I have regressed to the mean in Rush Poker. The mistake I have made repeatedly is calling with poor draws, mainly drawing to straights or calling with two pair. I have to stop calling with these as I do not have the proper odds. I really should be working on my game as I am just over a month from vegas. So, I am going to try to watch 2 video's per week and play a bit less.

From a fitness standpoint. I have to get to bed a bit earlier so I can wake up and workout before work.

Hey folks, guess what. I played crap poker last night and lost a bunch of money. In doing so, I overslept and did not make it to the gym this morning. I know, what a surprise.

My lizzard brain has taken over completely.

I will work harder today.

On Monday I went out to lunch instead of going to the gym. I can't believe what I ate. I huge fried fish sandwich and french fries. No wonder I am fat. I am actually finding it hard to get motivated to train right now. Really I am finding it hard to get motivated to do anything right now. Maybe motivated isn't the right word, I am motivated, but I just can't push myself to act. I had my week off and then I went skiing, so basically I had two weeks off. I think I got too used to being a sloth in that time. I am even having a hard time following NROL. I don't know why, I just don't feel like it. I did make it to the gym last night, but I slept in this morning (no doubt a result of drinking coffee before the gym and not being able to get to sleep). I am watching my food again on Livestrong. Hopefully I can shake myself out of this funk.

A little home poker

I had a really good night on Saturday. I bought in for 40 and cashed out for 310, for a nice 270 win. I played relatively tight, and I did play agressive. I did not make too many mistakes. I really stayed away from Billy, Chris and Rick (the regulars) and just went after the newer players, and that is where I made my money.

Here are the steps I took to win:
I did not drink very much
I played position
I folded to resistence

I played a bit on FT last night working on my $50 goal. I already broke one rule, I played 2 games (NLHE and PLO). It did not work out for me too well. I lost money in the PLO game. I did however, make more in NLHE than I lost in PLO, so I am still on track. I must,however, correct my actions. I cannot be a consistent winner multi-tableling. Tonight I will only play one game at a time.

I played my last game of Rush Poker PLO. I lost $30, and that was most of my FT bankroll. I had planned in a previous post not to play it anymore, but last night, I did. This demonstrates that I do not think like a winner. I will change that now.

My new goal for FT will be to raise my bank roll to $50 by year end. I will start by playing .01/.02 and I will move up when my BR gets to 300 BB's for the next level. I can take all year to get to $50. The rules for the challenge are as follows.

Full Tilt from 3 to 50 Challenge
I will only play NLHE ring games.
I will start at .01/.02
I will move up to the next level when I have 300 big blinds for that level
I will only play one game at a time.
I will not play Rush Poker until I have a bank roll of $10.00
