I Am Hard!

Finally finished work for the week. Comlpeted a 12 hour shift yesterday morning and went against my only golden rule which is dont play poker when you're tired. Went st8 into a poker sesh that lasted for 16 hours. Only stopping twice to go and buy more booze and fags. During this time I managed to down 6 and a half litres of strong cider.

Didnt really lose much coz I never had much anyway so its amazing I lasted that long really. Found out PokerStars take $10 min deposit now so I was able to rince out my neteller acc. who are serious slags for not giving me my money back (still cheaper than a credit card). They cant even test with paypal tho. Its a shame only Betfair uses them.
So I entered an $8 rebuy. I dont usually do rebuys but my mate Romper was playin so I fort it'd be a laugh. My strategy in these tourneys is to play really tight and never ever rebuy or addon. I made it threw the addon period on an 11k stack which I felt quite comfortable with. It was roughly de same as Rompers as it goes (very good player). Now I'm cruisin along nicely dominating small stacks. Up and down but with steady progression. Then this happened: Cant remember the blinds (was goin past the 3 litre mark) I raise a fair bit, 2500 ish with 1010 and get called by a big stack. Flop 872 I bet 3k. He goes allin for all bar 1k of my stack. Obviously this puts him on an over pair or a set. As I've gone past the 3 ltre mark my psychic abilities are starting to kick in and I realize he doesnt have me beat by any means whatsoever. I call and he flips over 99. Wow! Turn 8, River.......9. Buggerin F#'%K!!! Serves me right for such a stupid call I spose, but if u dont gamble u wont win. I battle for a bit and bust out in some stupid place like 297.

Took my tilt out on some serious micro stakes (not much cash left at all now). I think it was 2c/4c. Never realized how much fun these stakes can be (maybe God is giving me a pointer here). When the biggest stack only has $2 you can play like a total psycho. Made some serious Gus Hansen moves and cleared about $8 gettin called by twats who didnt know K3 is a crap hand, especially when theres an ace on the board. lol

Back to BlueSQ for a bit. They were upgrading in the morning but I cant see the difference. I know VC has moved to Playtech now tho.
To be honest I cant actually remember what happened as I cruised through the 5 litre mark. Bit of a mish mash but I'm only playing with my winnings dat I got after my mate Zid lent me $6 hu. lol. Made about $20. Cheers for dat mate!

The drunken state of enlightenment is achieved as I go through the 6 litre barrier (I shit you not). Must have drunk myself sober coz I can remember all of this give or take an hour or 2. I'm actually playing really well until BluSq decides to give me a hepling hand. In a $5 multi and I'm nearly chip leader through some superior card skill and a bit of luck. Then my chair litterally caught on fire! The next ten hands I'm delt an ace every time with no less than a J kicker. Except KK once. Had AA twice! I did not win one single hand even tho I was playing them very aggressively, put loads of people allin for a bad beat every time. The golden goose must have caught bird flu or sumfin coz I've busted down to 1k. Sensing the site irony I go allin preflop with 87o and manage to crack aces with 2pair. My brain starts melting and I crash out on the next hand with Jack sht for no money.Oh well.

Its 6:50am now and I'm really glad I've still got half a litre of cider left. The first pint is going down well. Propper Drunken Poker starts at midnight when I get paid. For now its time to pick up some bargains on ebay. Seriously, nobody bids at this time of day. Got a stack of old skool games the other day for like 50p each!
