SITTINGtheAPPLE: May 2008

I used to be a gambler. I quit gambling. I quit yesterday. I quit this morning, and i'll lay six-to one, I'll probably quit agian tonight." - Walter Matthau. Thursday, May 22, 2008. An Amazing Opportunity with the Syndicate Pt. 1. Rule #1: There must always be either 3 or 5 people in the Syndicate. The odd man must have final say over a tied vote. Rule #2: Always have faith, the Syndicate will prevail! Rule #3: Drink a lot. Rule #4: "Details". (This'll be more clear later in the story.). So we all grabbe...

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: solid play still producing frusterating results
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/11/solid-play-still-producing-frusterating.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Friday, November 23, 2007. Solid play still producing frusterating results. A third time I raised 1/3 of my stack (a big overraise) with 55 on the 3 5 9 board and was called. The J on the turn resulted in us both getting all our money in and he turned over JJ. I apologize to you if i'm starting to sound like a broken record on here. Things are looking pretty grim but I feel good about where they can go. I know how i...Updat...

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: Solid month so far
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/06/solid-month-so-far.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Saturday, June 23, 2007. Solid month so far. I've been pleased with my results so far this month. I am still very dissapointed with myself as far as the WSOP goes but i'm playing solid poker and that's what matters most. My biggest problem with running well is I start to think that I can be lazy and not play as much. I should be playing -more- since running well generally means i'm playing well and making good decisions.

http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/06/grinding-away.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Saturday, June 23, 2007. I didn't come out of my room until 10:30 tonight. I woke up and started working right away. I put in a pretty good session and I only played one big pot. Everything else was just grinding away, picking up small pots and overall just playing solid poker. The one big hand I did play? It makes me wonder what goes through peoples heads sometimes. I've been playing pretty agressive and I pick up.

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: My day off
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/06/my-day-off.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Friday, June 29, 2007. Thursday has become my traditional day off. I do need a day off and I figured what better day than Thursday? It's the day before the weekend starts and the day all my spamalot friends have off which means I end up going out on wednesday nights. Razz I don't play HORSE games because I feel i'm dead money at both stud games. Catch you all tomorrow. Wednesday session results 1900. Also, it's apparent tha...

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: Reader Beware! excessive bitching and whining ahead
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/11/reader-beware-excessive-bitching-and.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Monday, November 19, 2007. Excessive bitching and whining ahead. Most of you who have known me for awhile can attest to how much I hate bad beat stories. Unfortunantly that's all I have for you right now. What could I do? AA three times all-in preflop. twice against KK once against JJ. lost all three. QQ vs JJ on the 8 high flop. J on the turn. Since I started counting about 2 hours ago I havn't hit a set in 31 pairs. This ...

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: I pray bad....very bad
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/10/i-pray-badvery-bad.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Tuesday, October 09, 2007. I pray bad.very bad. The title says it all. At best I give myself a C- for my play today. I was very edgy all day and broke many of the cardinal rules of good poker in the first hour of my session. A good quick way to get down on a session is make plays at people in non pots and get played right back at. oops. Can what your religious beliefs and poker mix? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: The Greatest Ever?
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/10/greatest-ever.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Tuesday, October 30, 2007. In my completely biased opinion Brett Favre is the greatest quarterback to ever suit up and take the field. This should come as no suprise to most of you who know me. I did spend a great majority of my life in the frozen tundra. I'm a Philly fan, but you gotta love any team that wins you money! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I pray bad.very bad.

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: finding the positive in a big pile of negative
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/07/finding-positive-in-big-pile-of.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Monday, July 16, 2007. Finding the positive in a big pile of negative. If something is giving me bad results a change is good. I plan on playing little if any online poker in the next week and am focusing on building up a solid cash bankroll again. My month so far sucks, yet is meaningless and all that matters is making good decisions now. Live poker's where you need to be anyways man, do it to it! I'm playing at Party now ...

Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks: feeling pretty good and on track
http://brandovegas.blogspot.com/2007/06/feeling-pretty-good-and-on-track.html
Serious poker is no more about gambling than rock climbing is about taking risks. Tuesday, June 19, 2007. Feeling pretty good and on track. I've been putting in some good sessions lately. After 15 hours yesterday I put in a solid 6 today. I was cut short because I had bowling tonight and then I picked up where I left off when I got back. Right now i'm sitting on the lovesac with the laptop watching Mike and Mike on ESPN2 and playing a 5/10 table on FTP. Alrighty then. The river comes a harmless. The wors...
