Shit I just deleted my whole blog!

I was trying to erase this other blog I started and just clicked delete this blog without even reading which blog it was, sheesh what a dumbass I am at times or not 100% crisp as some people would say. I'm going to use my computer skillz and see if I can recover some of it at least, so it looks like a have another job on my to do list. On the poker side, I haven't been playing much poker this week mostly because I'm taking a little brake and I feel the Reaper is out there right now. If you don't know what a Reaper is, it's like a Cooler, but only 100 times worse. A reaper doesn't even have to be near you to suck all the luck out of you and make the impossible possible. Like a 1 outter hitting on the river, your nuts being beat by a miracle suckout, getting dealt poop every hand until you finally get a hand like A,3 and go all in and go broke.

Don't fuck with the Reaper!

Well I'm going to get back to this sng I'm playing, and then write down what I have to do tomorrow on my to do list. I have to rent a hotel for the wedding reception next sat. and do some other stuff as well. So keep on doing what you do, and I'll catch you on the flipside!

more back to back plus one more back

In the basketball world they would call it a three-peat, but in the poker world I don't know what the hell they would call it so I'll just call it back to back to back. I haven't been posting much of the home game events but this one will go in the books. (for me at least)

Ever since we have been playing at my friend Nicks "the hitman" house, no one has ever won 3 times in a row. Of coarse we have had a back to backs before at the hitmans house but no one has hit a back x3 since last saturday that is. I really didn't think I was going to win at all, since I had been up for more than 28hours already. I decided to just stay up and not take a 2-3 hours nap because I'm not good at all with naps; when I sleep I sleep like a bear needs hibernation in the winter. I'm one of those people that wish sleep was a drug, so you could just take it and get it over with and use up the rest of the day doing whatever, instead of wasting the day away sleeping. But that's not how the world is and instead I sleep as much as I am awake at times. I was pretty much cracked out on not getting much sleep, but I think my game was pretty on, compared to my other motor skillz like talking and other thangs like fumbling my chips. My schedule is pretty much the opposite of a working mans job, since I stay up for 20hrs and then sleep 12hr, but that's the closest I'll ever think I'll get to a schedule but back to the game....

I think the biggest mistake I did was not giving the new player that came to the game enough respect. I was in SB, and the BB had raised it $1.50, blinds were 20/40c at that time. Middle position and Mid-late position also called. I had 5,6d and it was a perfect hand to get in with, since there was 3 other people in the hand, and the flop didn't even hit yet. The flop came 8,5,8 rainbow and raised it $2.50, the BB called and so did Mid position, and mid-late folded. I figured that I had the best hand so far and that the other hands were high cards and on some sort of draw. Then on the turn there was another 8. I have a full house now 8's over 5's and I thought it was a definate lock. So I raised it 7$ and the new player called as well and mid-pos folded. It was then, at that time I knew what he had and I was beaten. So the next card came out and it was a big blank for me, so I just checked. Sure enough he flips over QQ, and scoops the massive pot. If I could go back, I would have definately checked instead of raising on the flop, but at the time, I was thinking to protect my hand and nothing else, and I should've just checked it to see if anyone would bet at the pot and then act accordingly. It's just another lesson you learn and hope to remember it when the scenario comes up when your playing.

In the end me and Kryptonite "jason" went heads up, and it was a great battle just like the week before it was Jason and me Heads up as well. Next week, the odds of me winning again are very very low since I've won 3 in a row; but who knows it may be a no luck night and skill will be my only weapon. We've been talking about starting up a point system and having tournaments based on the points accumulated and then having match ups based on the points or something like that. It will be alot of fun I think.

Keep on showin your nuts!
