WCOOP

So I won some money from first WCOOP event. Im one of best 400 hunder NLHE shorthanded online players in the world! Whippieeee!!! When it was near my money, I had so cold deck for a long time that it was sooo close to get even money. I push with QJ on my last chips and get 3 calls! I was saying goodbye untill flop was J-high no possible draws and all guys are checking. Turn and river were blancos so I won and I was back in the game.
I was in good mood and reach my stack to 24k before getting eliminated. I raise with QJspades and got one caller. Flop was T99 and I bet. Opponent calls and turn is 8. I bet and he raise me all-in and I call. He shows QT and river is 9 so he gets hes full house. Pretty sick ending but getting money from that tourney is great for me.

I pass that event 3 PLO tournament cause I thought I was dead money cause I was so tired for whole day. Im pretty good mood right now and maybe I should play one more event.
Also gotta mention this, I won $800 pot in saturday. AAds in Omaha. I re-raised in BB and two guys called. Flop were 832 and I push. Shortstack calls and other guy pushes. I call and villain 2 shows 4556 so he has big time wrap. Shortstack villain shows KK and some carbage. Turn was deuce and river was some other blanco, so I won with AA.

So its been pretty good days for me and hope I will continue playing good. I also withdraw over $1k so I can spend money with some stupidity. Example I bought new phone last week. Nokia 6330 I think. Or something like that.

Big day!

So tomorrow I have a big day in online poker. My first ever World championship tourney! No-limit Holdem $200+$15 (6-max).
I told earlier that I take little break in poker before that WCOOP-tournaments but what do u say... I have played some sessions in this week and I did very well. Confidence is back and im really looking for WCOOP. I have also registered in PLO-tournament in saturday. I dont really have gold about these tournaments. There are lots of pros and excellent players, and im pretty happy if I make money from these tournaments. This isnt maybe +EV thing to play these but to get better player, you have to face better players. Huh?

Updates coming tomorrow!

Finding motivation

Pretty sick week behind and I just have to take it easy and slowing before those WCOOP events later this week. I have played so much lately so maybe this week will be slow until friday. Motivation has been down and I havent played my A-game for a long time.
Well rakeback comes in this week so maybe thats cheer my up.

Just fking bad day. I dunno. Im not sure did I lost so much cause of my bad plays or cause of those outdraw idiots. I have played very very much today and I lost little bit over $140. I can admit that I wasnt playing my A-game but mostly cause of sick outdraws.

I finished todays sessions 30min ago when my JJ wasnt holding against 33 when we pushed all-in when flop was 528. Turn was A and river of course 4. Sicko $100 pot.

Afternoon I played three sit & go´s. Two of them were 22+2 and one of was 33+3. I get KO in 33 with my AK against A8, and in 22+2 I pushed with AQ in BB and opponent called with 7Ko and river was 7. Just fucking bullshit this hole day. Lots of grinding and lots of losing. Actually that losing isnt bothering me so much cause I can easily filled that out in next two days. Just gotta keep playing shorter sessions and keep focusing what im doing for.

Also gotta mention one thing that isnt including in poker at all. PUSSYCAT DOLLS are coming in Finland!! Gig is on October and tickets are availeble to buy since next wed. Nicole is coming!! So awasome. My future ex-wife! Hhhhhhh-hot-hot-hot-hot!!!!

Stop this madness!

Wild days. But not in the good way accept today. Last night I came home about 11.30pm and started playing. I tilted big time and managed to lost almost $700 cause of my tilting... I was so pissed to villains and also myself when I went to bed to get some sleep. Poker was just rolling around in my head and I promise I was ready to kick somebodys butt if someone had coming in front of my face.

Tomorrow I woke up and poker was first thing in my mind and day just begin worst. Anyway I visit in school and day was pretty fine and I wasnt thinking poker before I came in home and start to play. Last night I thought myself that I want to start all over and start playing lower limits like NL/PL 50. That didnt excactly happened. First I went to PLO50 and won $15 which is... NOTHING! I didnt face any beats but still I was little bit upset about last night and back of my head I was tilting still. I wanted to try something special to get my money back and went to NL600 HE table and sitting with almost minimum ($142). I decide to play pretty tight and just half push when I get decent hand.

Pretty quickly I had lost $30 cause of stupid blinds calls. Then I got KhJh and raise in MP. Player "cccoddy" called on the SB and flop was great Js 4h Th and I bet weak $24 into a $46 pot. "cccoddy" called and turn was Q. I pushed cause I only had 66$ left and he folds. I had 156 then. Couple hands later I had AK in BB and "cccoddy" raise standard. I came over top 3x his raise and he calls. Flop is K65 rainbow and I bet pretty much and villain folds. I had now $217.

Few minutes after that I get KQ in early position and raised 3x BB and got two callers ("cccoddy" and "healty"). Flop is K44 and everybody check. Turn is deuce and SB bet almost pot (~60$). I raised to $168 and he thinks a lot and folds then. Stack were now $317.

Next hand and I have pocket queens in BB. Button and SB limps and I bet $24. Both called and flop is 2d 6h 8s. SB bets $35 and I raised to 97$. Both folds and stack was now $397.

Few hands later I had TT and re-raise after raise and two limps. I won 3 time $24. I had almost $500.

Then I won over $400 pot but im little bit emberrassed cause of that. Watch yourself. http://www.pokerihanska.com/?h=099338221

After that I werent involved to any big hands and I left in table $643. I played 43 hands and made that $500 which was so awasome thing to do. After that I took control in my play and went to NL50 and NL100. I won $70 in there so hole is almost filled in.

Feels so great now and yesterday has forgot.

Two sick hands

Two pretty fking sick hands.

First hand. Holden NL HU $2/$4. I have about 200$ and villain has max buy-in (I started with 120$). I have A9s in button and I raise standard, he raise on top (he had doing a lot of that) and I called. Flop was AT3 with two hearts and he checked. I bet about $35 in to a over $50 pot he call. Turn is 4 and he check-call me again. River is 7 and he push. I put finger in my mouth but just couldnt figured what he had. Heart didnt came and I thought he prob missdraw. I call and he shows A7. Pot was 400$.

Second hand. Omaha PL 6-handed $1/$2. I have QQds (diamond & heart) and called on a four-way-pot. Pot was $20 in flop. Flop was Q32 (no flushdraws) and original raiser bet $16. I smooth call that and other guy also. Turn is 9h what gives a flushdraw for me also. Original raiser bets again and I push. Other guy folds and villain calls after thinking a lot. He show AAKJ no flushdraws and river is of course A on a 170$ pot.


Sickooooo...

Self-confidence...

...is huge right now! HU´s are going so great and I have just owned almost everybody in these battles. This day so far $+430 and most of it has came in HU NL100 & NL200. Also in shorthanded tables I am doing just great.
There are so many fishes in HU that many times it just doesnt make any sense. Maybe Ive been lucky to face so many donkeys in HU tables but cant whine about that. I think my character and style is fitting perfect in HU´s. Its agressive, fast game and I love it. I havent played any MTT´s or S&G´s in past two weeks and dont really need those. August was great month and gotta say, september has started even better! If this will continue I become fulltime player. :) LOL. Not yet, gotta take slow now. Bankroll is doing great and maybe I can take few shots in NL400 this weekend. I am very comfortable at NL100 & NL200 so no rush for moving up.
