Travelbuddies for Australia 2013 wanted!

Hi there, I just opened a facebook book regarding this but cross-post it here to maybe create moar interest. If you are interested just hook me up on facebook and I'll invite you to teh fb-group! cheers Sup foos! European summer comes slowly to an end and as some might know my plan this winter is to escape to Australia and co. from januar 2013 ongoing for 4-5 months. Last year I had a blast in South America but I decided to not go back there until I at least speak semi-fluently spanish and this will not happen in teh next few months.  So my main issues in searching for a place to go were good weather (so obv i have to go south) and english language. After all I decided to roll with Australia for next year and see how I like it. If I have to go alone I will do so but if I find somebody who is keen on travelling a little bit with me even better. If you have already plans for january++, cannot move bc no money, gf that stresses, whatever it is just snapleave teh group in order to keep...

Eurosummer comes to an end...

After not updating for over a month now i guess it's about time... During the last 6 weeks i wasn't doing much else besides party, party, party. So my pokervolume was probably the lowest i played teh since i started to grind for a living but fortunately i ran good for the most part and was at least able to cover my expenses and a bit moar... In the end i was calculating from teh beginning of teh year that i will not work too much in july and august given to different factors. For once during this time it is just way too hot in Malta too work your ass off. Point 2 is that there are way too many parties to attend and another issue is that i got alot of people visiting me over the last 5 weeks and i cannot tell my good friends coming down to Malta "listen, i have to work, i cannot go out with you guys". So given all these factors i'm still kind of proud that i managed to play 150.000 hands during the last 2 months. Regarding teh parties i don't really know much w...

One week in Sweden - Visby, Gotland Update

Gambar
Allrighty, sitting here in Visby in my hotel room and since it's teh first day this week where I'm taking a break from teh party and teh alcohol I guess I can give my impression so far. First off I was expecting way moar of this week. In teh end we running pretty bad weatherwise and I assume that is prolly teh main reason why nobody of us is satisfied. I arrived on tuesday with 5 other pokerplayers for teh Stockholm week in Gotland (small island in Sweden for those who don't know. But yeah, the main problem is probably teh sick amount of rain and it is insanely cold for july even for Sweden (around 16°C during daytime). The other probably even bigger problem is that everything is closing at point 2am in teh night which is tilting teh shit out of all of us. We prolly wouldn't have even bothered coming here if we would've known that from teh very beginning, but somehow teh clubs screwed up their licenses to open longer during this week and so the law forces them to cl...

Big June, back in business baby...

Don't really feel like writing bc I'm still damaged from teh weekend but still want to do a recap of the month. After the disaster in may i had a pretty good month at teh tables in june due to running insanely hot and playing well. Basically it was just one of those very rare months, where everything is going in your favour no matter what. So I'm shitloads above EV, managed to find a sick fish at 1k and play him shorthanded until he busted his account, tons of setups vs. regs, etc. These months tend to not happen too often but every now and then you get lucky i assume. After last month I changed some stuff as being already stated in the last blog post and it seems like everything i did was the right decision. I don't think I ever played this few hands in one month since I'm playing for a living but on teh other side I never had a higher hourly before either I assume. In general the main things i did was kicking out 6max 600 and above of my filter and playing way sho...

Summersummersummertime aka back on teh Rock

It's been a while, i know... This is mostly due to teh horrific month of may which was one, if not teh worst month in my career. To put things into perspective: I was still slighty up after rakeback but really only pocket change. But that's poker i guess - there are months were absolutely everything works out and ofc there are months were everything goes wrong as well. It still blows my mind til the current day how much variance really is involved in this little game of cards. I mean, I end up making close to 25.000$ US at the tables in april and once i return to Malta i manage to lose around 5.000$ US over a similar sample of hands. Without making too many big mistakes in neither of those months. Good news is that I managed to win around 10.000$ US so far in June so I'm back in teh zone and will not complain about teh dirty may... In short the main reasons for the massive win and the decent loss in both months was running insanely hot at 400+ and running insanely bad at 40...
