This is a graph of my past three months of online poker. The light green line is what my equity is in all in pots, for example if I get it all in for 20k with AA vs JJ I have 80% equity so on average I win 16k from the pot. Over the past [...]
My final table of the 5k Mixed event will air on ESPN2 tomorrow between 8pm and 10pm. I’m not sure exactly when as the schedule is kind of confusing but I’m guessing 9pm. My trip to Maui was awesome. I didn’t play any poker for two weeks and it was exactly what I needed. I don’t [...]
“There is no mind so machinelike that you can depend upon it to function with equal efficiency at all times” – Reminiscences of a Stock Operator I have played more hands of poker over the past three years that almost any other individual. At times I’ve played unbelievable poker. I have perfectly narrow down my opponents [...]
I busted from the main event during the last level of day 2. I’m pretty disappointed with my performance, as I feel I didn’t feel that I play my best poker. I played my A-game for the first few levels each day but I feel as fatigued and laziness kicked in and I made some [...]
Tomorrow I will be playing in my first Main Event at the World Series. I am very excited and prepared for a long, but exciting day. I have been playing a lot of online poker the past few weeks with a few tournaments mixed in, but no cashes or interesting stories. I wish that I [...]
Two years ago I decided to live in Las Vegas for the summer with two other college dropouts, a retired stock trader and a real college student as we all sought to compete with the best players in the world in an attempt to win fame and fortune in the world series of poker. So [...]
So I wake up today work out mediate and am feeling good vibes. I was really excited for the 5k 6 max WSOP event as I felt like I had a huge edge. 6th Hand in I get 6 bets in and finally get all in on a T42 flop with TT. My [...]
I woke up and excited and ready to play in today’s 5k NL 6 max event. Six max No Limit is my strongest game due, I’ve played well over a million hands of it online. So I woke up, had a badass workout, mediated and ate some plants and got ready to go play my A [...]
It’s been a while since my last update. I find it’s somewhat of a chore to do anything in my life beside poker, or work on poker game. This is not something I’m proud of but and it’s definitely something I need to work on to improve my life and more importantly it probably wouldn’t [...]
Sorry for the lack of updates in the past week but I have been busy with poker, poker and more poker. The cash games have been very soft both live and online this month so I’m trying to put in as many hours as possible so I can work less the rest of the year. Since [...]
If you would have told me going into the final table that I’d finish in 3rd I would have been stoked, due to my low chip count. But after it got down to three handed I had my heart set on the bracelet. So when I busted I was a little disappointed. Isaac ‘IluvtheWbna’ Haxton busted out on just [...]
It took a couple miracle river cards and I have made my first final table at the WSOP. I am really excited because it is an ESPN aired tournament and it is a stacked final table with all pros. The other players are Erick Lindgren, Howard Lederer, Justin Bonomo, Roland DeWolfe, David Williams, Chino, and [...]
Last night, after my online session, I headed back to the poker frat house for some more degeneracy. I railed my good friend Travis “traverestyfund” Rice as he played out the final table of the $109 rebuy tournamet on Pokerstars. About 10 of us were watching, cheering and booing at every hand that was dealt. Afterwards [...]
Yesterday I woke and did my daily cardio workout. Lately I’ve been doing 10 minutes on the bike followed by 5 minutes of jump-rope, push-ups and sit-ups, a 10 minute run the treadmill, running up 22 flights of stairs, than a 10 minute cool-down on either the bike or elliptical. I’ve been [...]
