Quick Post

Date: Fri, Feb 8, 2008 Internet


Cheers for all the birthday greetings fish and thanks to cousin Kirbs for the 5 bucks. This week has been ok i guess, im still waking up earlyish and going to bed at a decent time plus im still winning and keeping busy ish. On Tuesday i won about $850 in 2.5 hrs in the afternoon then played abit 5 a side footy, winning 4-2 i think. Wednesday i didnt play but received a few dimes in rakeback. I was too fooked to play any pokes after my college footy team experienced its worst ever defeat. We got done 4-0 to St. Charles who had Jermaine Defoe's nephew playing upfront, gg wp. They fucking destroyed us tbh and now we basically just have to just re-group and get sorted for our cup semi next month. It was pretty awful actually i and ended up telling one of the students to stfu and called him a dickhead on the mini bus back home in front of the whole team lol. Can't be asked to explain why but a few words needed to be said, its all good.
On Thursday i was fucking pissed off for a few hrs because of a load of shit regarding bills, bills, bills. How the fuck people live off normal salaries i will never know. Thank fuck for poker!! I played for about 4 hrs after my strop and made exactly $500 then went to the gym. Today everyhthing was goin sweet. I sorted some of my shit regarding all these fucking bills which was a relief although it still aint fully sorted then logged on and made $600 in 3.5 hrs. Done my gym thing again and then returned to the cyber felt losing $420 in one hour. I logged off after the hour, sensible thing to do as i was getting a bit hot, i fucking HATE losing.
Gonna get wankered tomorrow i reckon, really fuck myself up and just chat shit lol. Monthly profit, $2,650. Annual profit $8,900. Sorry for the lazy post, laters.

A Changed Man?

Date: Mon, Feb 4, 2008 Internet


Errr probably not but for the last three days i've amazingly gone to sleep at about 12-1am and woke up between 8 and 9am!!! At least i've started to show some signs of structure in my little life. Following on from my last post in which i quickly made $500 in the space of about 30 minutes in the early hours of Friday i logged back on and basically bust it all in amount 20 mins lol. However, i made it all back with an extra $350ish on top before logging off at midday after about 4 hrs at the cyber felt with a nice $850 profit to kick start the new month. I had a break for lunch and then for some very gay reason i found myself sitting on ShittyWoods playing nl $50 HU??? I dunno wtf i was doing tbh but i wasted about 2 hrs of potential decent table time at nl $200 and also ended up down about $170, pointless! Didn't play anymore after that, i was pretty much like a zombie for the rest of the day having been awake since midnight lol.
I was still fucked on Saturday actually but managed to crawl out of bed at about 9am and go to the gym. Did fuck all for the rest of day, pretty bollocks really. Sunday morning and it was same again, up at 9am and then gym. Went round my old dears gaff for a nice roast and then just minced with Scotch and JJay for abit. Played two faggot £11 quid SnGays on Woods whilsting showing JJay the art of poker and placed 1st and 3rd for a £48 squid prof.
Today, i actually arose frm my wank pit at 7am!!! I hadn't shit the bed or nothing like that, i was just wide awake, very peculiar lol Played 3 hrs this morning and was up about $500 bucks but somehow that slowly 'dissappeared' i dont really remember losing any decent sized pots actually, fuck knows where it went lol. Oh well, logged off with a $170 profit anyway for my efforts. Im bored now, fucking bored. Bored bored bored!!!
Actually im not a changed man at all, im a cunt. Shit title and shit post but im gonna post it anyways. In a strange mood. Might go gym and then get wrecked down the pub or summat, fuck poker.

Sleep Marathon

Date: Fri, Feb 1, 2008 Internet


Fuck me im all over the place at the moment lol. Went to sleep at 6am on Thursday morning and slept until midnight so i missed the whole day and had about 18 hours of shut eye!! Stayed up through the night, made myself out some pukka munch, scrubbed my bollocks, tidied my flat and also sorted out a few errands. Played about 30-45 minutes of poker at about 5am and made a nice $500 profit. Played cash on FTP for the first time ever and won a beautiful $500+ pot when i flopped the nootlings and got action from three others fishee's with one of the poor bastard blowing his load with a diamond draw and for once missing the turn and river. A nice start to the month. Im buzzing atm actually, feeling good. Gonna play a few more hours in a minute i think once i've finished writing this shit blog and munched my Maccay D's breakfast. Thats right fish, im living the dream babay ahahaha.
I was going to write one of those gay detailed monthly review posts that other bloggers do but i can't be asked lol. Basically, i think i underachieved and need to do better. Maybe im too harsh on myself, maybe i actually had a good month, time will tell i guess. In January i made $6250 bucks which includes a bit of rake back and a few bonuses although im dissappointed at the amount of hours i put in. I dont know exactly how many hrs i played and will defo keep a better track of that in the future although it was definately nowhere near my proposed 40+ hours per week. Im a lazy bum and need to play more plus i need to get some sort of structure in my life. Nothing too rigid just something like going to bed no later than 3am and waking up no later than midday will do lol. I managed to get my lazy ass in the gym a total of 10 times in Jan which aint too bad, but i think i should be aiming for around 15 times so again no good enough. I need to keep up the exercise anyways because i'll end up looking like Greg Raymer otherwise.
I think im going to continue playing most of my poker on the crypto network and FTP in the future. Lots of fish talk about the softest of PP and i agree it is a soft but most sites are soft imo. At the end of the day poker is poker and i can beat any fish on any site at my little faggot limits plus i will get the rakeback incentive that PP doesn't provide. Right, time to hit the tarbles again me thinks, laters.

Beating the Scousers!

Date: Thu, Jan 31, 2008 Internet


Wahooooooo, get the fuck it there!!! Can't get a better feeling than beating them dirrrtay scouse coounts (sorry Rossi, calm doon) apart from flopping the noots, turning the noots and hitting the noots on the river babay, oh and of course that nice warm tingling feeling you get right before your about to blow your load! Actually i nearly blew my load when Marky Noble banged home that pen in the last minute! Fucking love it! I hate Liverpool. Up yours Carragher, i hate that muthalicker. Waaaaahoooooooooooo!
Not as much to shout about on the poker front. Played alittle last night and quite abit tonight with shit results. I basically broke even with the help of a couple of bonuses on woods and PP. Annual profit now $6250. Up the hammers!!!!

No structure No Routine

Date: Tue, Jan 29, 2008 Internet

Body clock is fuckkkkked, again!!! lol Woke up nice and early today at about 4pm lol, spent about an hour in the gym then basically just sat on my ass talking poker, watching poker and errr playing poker, makes a fucking change dunnit. Just minced on Shittywoods mainly playing two tarbs of $1/2 whilst chatting to and railing other fisheee's. I had quite a good result tonight actually winning just short of $900 buckeroooo's. However, that fish Kenn must have won over $11k tonight the bastard. I just watched him come really close to two final tarbs on both PS and PP and then the jammy fook went and won $10.4k in some tourn on FTP, fair fuckin play mate. I might set a few grand aside for some MTT action i reckon, have like a roll for cash and a roll for MTT's or something and see how i get on because that fish Kenn is an absolute donk! :-)
I also might start playing on Woods abit more actually, im starting to like it there plus the rake back i receive is excellent. However, the play is probably abit better than pp and the traffic is only decent at certain times. I might combine PP and woods i think, defo worth it for the rakeback i reckon, i need to take more advantage of rake back now im a full time fish. Dont think im gonna bother goin to sleep tonight, its fast approaching 6am now as it is lol. Gonna try and sort out a few errands, although i'll prolly start getting abit dozy by 10-11am. I really need to get some sort of structure and routinue, anything!!! However, the reality is thats it highly unlikely. Your a cock Jones! Annual winnings are just over $6200 atm. Night/morning fish.

The Dogs

Date: Sun, Jan 27, 2008 Internet


I went to Wimbledon Dogs last night with a bunch of other fish for my mate Nick's birthday. About 15 of us gotta minibus down there and although we missed the first three races it was a good crack, something abit different. Because im now known amongst friends as 'mr gamboooolar' i felt somewhat obliged to have slightly bigger and more riskier bets than everyone else. So after placing a tenner on the 4th race and getting butt fucked on the line for a nice early win i decided to up the stakes alitte whilst my mates were placing faggot £1 and £2 quid bets. For the remaining 9-10 races i was placing £18 bets on always trio combinations which basically involve picking 3 doggies from the 6 racing and hoping that the bastards all finish in the top 3 in any order, mmmm should be easy enough. Well, after about 5 races i was stuck just short of a ton grrrr. Its strange how it seems to piss you off that little bit more when its real money actually slipping through your hands as opposed to the dosh you jizz off in the cyber world. With 3 races left and with me slighty on tilt and alittle boozay i stuck another £18 trio always bet on the 3 faves in race 11 which gave me a win of £54, only a small return but finally a win ffs. Next race another £18 trio always bet but this time i didnt back all the favourites and boooooom £120 for Amatay. I bunged another score on the last race with no luck and finished the night up just over £50, i like this gamboling marlarky :-)
After the dogs most of us went out for more beers in Watford which was ok, nothing great. I bumped into my mate Rob aswell as that bird and her mates that i mentioned in a previous post who had named me Podium Boy lol. I thought i was on for some rumps but i ended up home alone and decided it would be a smart idea to play some pissed pokes. For some reason my game of choice was £.50/1 heads up poker on ShittyWoods. I really got into it actually and ended up playing some muthalicker from Miami for about 3 hours lol. I most have won about 75% of the pots against this fish but he won the majority of the biggish pots mainly from outrageous suck outs. Its weird when you play HU, kinda like the money dont matter anymore and it becomes sort of personal, i really wanted to bust this bastard for every penny he had lol. The coount doubled through me a few times but i knew i was the better fishee. So, despite being desperate for a piss i continued to play him and eventually grinded the biatch from £220 down to £25. I politely asked the stupid yank to wait for one mintue and i'll be back because my bladder could no longer take the pain. After pissing like a racehorse i returned to find that my new American friend had vamoooshed. BASTARD, i knew he was gonna do that, I wanted that last £25 lol. His name was Glennsan if any of you fish want some 'free' money, hopefully i'll see him at the tarbs again soon. I ended the night with a profit of £82, the rakes a killer playing HU and eventually i went to sleep at about 8am lolol.
The night before my dogging adventures i played a load of HU, SH and mainly FR poker on pp. It was probably my most unluckiest night of the year thus far, utter sickness. It should have easily been a $1k+ night but i ended up with a $50 loss on the cash tarbs aswell as busting in two MTT's costing $125 combined. However, a $200 bonus and $50 for pp points meant i finished the night with about an $80 profit. Annual winnings now stand at $5,550, hopefully i can get this above the $7k mark before the end of the month, latay.
EDIT: Cant sleep blah blahhhhh. Played and won the bloggerment tonight and for some reason just pissed about playing 1 tarb of $1/2 on ShiityWoods and lost $200 whilst chatting to that fish Tim aka BrainChylde from RtR. I had this one hand that has really pissed me off tonight. Here is the hand. Tim the fish thinks i probably made a bad fold, maybe's he right. WTF do you fish do in this spot in a cash game? I know all about hand ranges blah blah blah and what he's possible holdings are etc. The fish had just joined the tarble and i have never played the coount before so no information in that respect. Whats your play here? Narena, Cottlad, State0fmind and any other fish that read this ghey blog i would appreicate your comments please. JJay, with all due respect you don't need to bother m8 ;-) lol. Night world.

Amatay's Office

Date: Thu, Jan 24, 2008 Internet


Thats right fishays its Friday wahoooo, although most days feel like a Friday for me atm lol, dunno whether thats a good or a bad thing? Anyways, since this post i made just over a week ago alot of you fish have asked me whether that is indeed my real living quarters!!! Outrageous that some of you fish could think that i live like that! So, seeing as i cant sleep and also the fact that i am a very sad boy here is a quick snap of my actual pokay set oop allowing you a small glimpse into Amatay's world lol.

I have only just recently purchased the bard boy 22" monitor and used to play all my pokes on the lappy but its much better now. If you look closely you will notice the small pokay libraray in the background :-)
Not played a great deal since my miserable fish post lol. Im ok atm btw, everyone has their off days. Went to the gym on Tuesday then out for a few beers with a load of mates in the evening, all of whom either support the dirrrrtay gooners or them filthay yiddo's. It was quite funny watching them goons get walloped but i think i hate Spurs more if thats poss. After the footay we had a few more beers and i nearly got trollified again. Thank fook i didnt because i had to take my college football the next day for an important Quarter Final match versus SFX. The day started very badly as I had a mini hangover plus we only had 10 fucking players, nightmares. Luckily enough two more of the bastards arrived just in time for kick off although they needn't have bothered because we were 1-0 down after 10 seconds, no jokes. We got smashed in the first ten minutes but rode our luck, got back into the game and managed to get to half time still trailing only 1-0. Coach Amatay then gave a rousing half-time team talk and we ended up winning 2-1. We won the game in the last min and i had a great buzz when the final whistle went. I do enjoy running the team, their a good bunch. Gotta chance in the semi-final aswell i reckon, fingers crossed.

On the poker front i didnt play Tues and only played one of those ghey $22 headhunter things on ShittyWoods on Wed as i was too fooked after football. I managed to cash but busted when my pocket neufs were no good for pock 5's aipf grrrr. Today i have spent about 5 hours on the cyber felt and was ticking along nicely making about $500 after 3 or so hours and then busted it all within an hour. I did however make a comeback and finshed the session with a $250 profit aswell as $50 bucks worth of pp points. Annual profit back at $5,300, gonna play some more tomorrow, laters.

Miserable Fish

Date: Mon, Jan 21, 2008 Internet


I feel like a proper cunt today, abit down in the dumps, abit moody, I dunno whats wrong with me? I just get these crazy mood swings now and again. One day im up and buzzing the next day i just feel kinda flat. Today i didn't wake up until 2.30-3.00pm something which can sometimes leave me feeling blue. I went to the gym but still felt like shit and I didnt hit the tarbs until midnight lol. Where the fuck did today go? Thats what makes me miserable sometimes i think, the feeling that i im wasting away lol. Its because i aint really moved for the last 3 days, thats why i feel shit. Saturday i was just minging and hungover, Sunday i played poker for fucking hours and had my first losing session of 2008. I only lost $450ish but its still a bastard. I only played for about 30 mins tonight but im just not feeling it mentally so i logged off with a $100 profit. I also cashed in about $85 in pp points so my monthly profit is just over $5k. Arghhhhh snap out of it Jones you prick, wtf is wrong with you. CUNT!
EDIT: Been thinking lol. I know why i feel like shit, like i said above, its the last 3 days and doing nothing basically, especially when i could be doing stuff. When you play poker for a living discipline is sooo important more so off the tarbs than on them i reckon. I need a better structure and a bit of a better routine. I know this anyways, stop being ghey you twat. I need a fucking shag too!! Been a good few months now. Anyone out there fancy a shag?? Liebert? Coren? Annette_15? Im desperate!!!!!! Roofer?? ;-)

Podium Boy

Date: Sat, Jan 19, 2008 Internet


Done my usual last night and got smashed on Stella's and aftershocks, exactly what i said i wasn't going to do last week. Im such a twat, why do i do it to myself? Because i love it, thats why lol. I just kinda forget about the consequences and get ball bagged. Of course today has been an absolute blow out again. It weren't even that good of a night tbh, just me Scotch and Rob. The most amusing part of the night was finding out from Rob that a few birds he knows who are mates with some bird i rumped refer to me as podium boy lol. This is because i ended up shagging this bird in a club underneath a podium a few years ago ahahah. It made me laugh anyways, i've been called worse names lol.
Because i have been so mashed today i ain't played any pokes, i cant when im hungover. I played one tourn on BlueSq for a laugh with a few fish from RTR. It was called the APAT Slovenian Open and was an $11 buy in. It was a pretty good structure actually and i ended up busting 28/100 in a pot to go 2nd in chips with AK v AQ when the AQ slut made a floosh, grrr. Reminds me why i play cash and why i HATE mtt's. Gonna put in a big session tomorrow i think, profit for the year currently stands at $5300 and should be a few grand extra if i had played more i reckon, laters.

Not Feeling It

Date: Fri, Jan 18, 2008 Internet


I've gone from being 'in the zone' to playing with hardly any concentration and basically playing bored shitty poker in less than 24 hrs lol. Today i have just minced about and then played for one hour before logging off boreddddd. Not feeling it at all today. I called a raise with J2o pre by accident and then proceeded to bluff unsuccessfully at the flop. I also misread two of my hands believing i had flopped top two pair instead of bottom two and donked off a few bucks as well as checking a full boat on the river, durrrrrr. However, i managed to catch a few flops playing head up versus one horrible fish from Armenia lol, abit of short-handed action and the usual full ring shenanigans making a total profit of $400. Almost half of that profit was mainly the result of this little beautay. I've busted this fish soooo many times i've lost count ahahaha. Fucking hell im bord. I need to find some fish to go out with tonight for beers galore, gonna ring round in a min i think. I've had 5 wanks today im that bord lol, nah jokes, i've only had the 4. BORED BORED BORED

In The Zone

Date: Thu, Jan 17, 2008 Internet


Played decent poker tonight but i only made about $250 in 7 hrs (longest session for months) as opposed to $500+ on Tuesday in the half the time. For the first 5 hrs or so of tonights action i was really in the zone but the deck just wasn't co-operating with me at all. I saved myself alot of money by making some good folds today. He's a couple of them for your viewing pleasure and also so i can show off abit :-) Hand 1 & Hand 2. For me they are both really easy folds, especially hand 1 where i was pretty much done with the hand on the turn and probably the flop actually. Hand 2 was alittle tougher but i was pretty sure the fishay had 888 or JJJ. The fish showed me both their holdings on each of the hands which made me feel pretty good. Thing is i have been sooo in the zone recently that i sometimes give the fish too much credit. I had one hand in which i flopped a set of 5's on a 59A bord and folded when i thought i was dead and the fish said he had A9 although he didnt show. Oh well, nevermind. I also cashed in about $50 doll's worth of PP points tonight and my profit for 2008 now stands at $4.9k, im pretty content with life right now, its all groovay.
Yesterday i didnt play a single hand but spent much of my time fucking about with my a new toy that i brought. I got a phat 22" monitor to help me play my poker! It extends onto my lappy and has improved the playability and my comfort level ten fold. Oh btw, the pic in the last post of 'my poker setup' isnt my real gaff btw lol. Fuck me, most of you fish probably (hopefully) knew that it was a joke anyways but i had a couple of peeps who actually thought it was for real!! I am kinda fond of them curtains but my gaff looks nothing like that. Im quite a tidy fish most of the time, although i do have my work cut out in trying to keep my place clean what with living with that messy ginger coount Scotch. BTW Scotch you still need to buy me another fecking toilet seat you bastard. The muthalickers now broken two of them ffs!
Right im off, gonna try and play a few more hours tomorrow then im meant to be going to The Victoria for some live poker action, we'll see. Cya feesh.

Not Playing Great But Winning

Date: Tue, Jan 15, 2008 Internet


I've done ok the past two days in terms of profit but i am playing alittle too ghey for my liking atm. I managed to get up early doors on Monday and play about 2.5-3 hrs late morning/early afternoon and made $230. I had one hand which particularly pissed me off for some reason. I've asked 3 peeps about it already, all of whom i respect and one said call, one said fold and the other said errr not sure, fuck knows lol. One thing i do know is if i could return to the hand i call, purely to satisfy my curiosity if anything else, i was probably good anyways. I will discuss my ghey thought processes on the hand after you fish have ripped me to shit lol. Here is the hand.
This hand combined with a few other smallish lost pots made me abit tilty so i logged off for some munch. Also my back was fucking hurting aswell lol. I really do need to improve my poker set up at home now im a full time fish as you can see in the pic below, although i suppose i do have a bard ass duel monitor set up and some shit hot curtains!!



















After lunch i played for one more hour and made another $300 on the cash tarbs but busted nowhere in an $26 tourn on FTP, my tourn game needs improving. I also managed to get my lazy ass in the gym too.

Today, i woke oop early and went to the gym again and then played about 3.5 hrs on the cash tarbs. I weren't happy with my game at all this afternoon. In fact i think its the worst i have played this year. I missed ALOT of value today. However, i was lucky that the deck smashed me in the face, i must have flopped about a million sets, at least lol. I managed to make $466 and also received a further $43 bucks from my rake back on FTP for the faggot SnGays i played when i was ill. So the last two days and around 7 hours of play has brought about a decent $1k profit which is very welcome, although it should be double that imo. Earnings for 2008 now stand at $4600. Dunno if i'll play anymore today, i might just chill plus i've gotta 5 a side footy match later. The picture is of a bird called Megan Fox btw, she's the bird in that Transformers film. She's perfect! I'd even go as far as to say she is better looking than the Liebert although its a close one. Laters fish.

Spaced Out

Date: Sun, Jan 13, 2008 Internet


I am proper fucked atm, i think the alcohol has done some long term damage to my brain this time, im serious, im spaced out man. I've been awake all through the night from midnight up until now (3pm). I feel like im in a time warp or summat, really strange. I feel like im proper stoned off some supa strong fucked up smelly green shit lol, its weird, like i have been drugged. I have barely moved in the last 15 hours and have barely played any poker either. Im just sat here staring at my laptop lol. I just played a few mincey $20 and $30 HU games on FTP but couldn't really concentrate and ended up with a tiny loss. There's no point in playing any poker today, my brain feels empty. Gonna make myself a bad ass fry up now, hopefully that will sort me out. This is a tune btw!!!!!!!!
EDIT: My fry oop has made me feel sick :-(
