The whats-up-with-poker-part
FT bubbeled the FTOPS #2 today. Rest can be seen in status. Had a long break even stretch, but managed to kill it off by winning the 40K and a couple of other scores.
Right now I hate poker. Dont know if its because: it ruins my life this month, destroy my health, I ran out of tobacco earlier tonight, elvis is dead or simply because I cant watch the new Harry Potter movie for ages.

7/10 wins, 25/50 finaletables and I feel like half the days I've put in has been half-empty volume.
Much can be said about variance, much can be blaimed on variance, but variance still doesnt mean shit either way. It just does not make a difference, it is not a factor I, you or anyone else can control. My results this far has been good, but does it really mather? No.
I have been slobby in my preparations

Had a pretty terribel saturday and specially sunday both playingwise and moneywise. I blame a lot of it on my poor preparations before the sessions. Like sunday I managed to meet up for my monstersession with only a bread in my bag.
Monday I pulled myself together and spent my 2 hours after waking up really good buying in all sort of salads, chinese food and fruits for the two next days.

Had a far better start then I could have wished for. Last night I entered a personal record ammount of 6-7 finaletables (!) with one more which did not count. 22,5K, 32K, 22K, 40K, 15K (pstars), 60K ipoker and I think I did one smaller one on UB aswell (12,5K?).
Pretty sick run allright.
So betters: lets dance. I am starting to think that if I keep putting in the same volume I can actually do this.

Made 3 more finaletables last night with a second in the 18,5K 1ad1r for 3,7K as top score. Think I played ok during the day, allthough its hard to tell for me.
Definetly is still 4-betting too light in some spots. Somehow I just think every tournament reg knows how to indentify great 3-bet spots. They do not. And I still shove KQ like a monkey.
Gotta work with myself to stay focused during the long hours. Specially
2nd hand flop is always a call IMO. He will lead again on the turn so fuckin often with everything. And since you have position you can still get value on the turn if he does decide to check. ...

We have had a Goal thread every year. Just because the big poker sites got shut down to US players doesn't mean we shouldn't still set goals. Here are my goals: River Rats: A Poker Players...
