Tiltwife does "Iron Man" well!!!! Today 25th, next month WORLD DOMINATION!!!


That's right, I am lucky enough to be married to a poker queen, and she rocked the "Iron Man" any two will do monthly donkament. WTG Tiltwife and I am very, very, very proud of you!!!!

Sorry for no updates folks, it's been busy, I'll make a new post this week and catch up.

So about that poker thing….

Played a few hands and got killed, thinking about playing some limit, just to stave off the bleeding, I still like the $3 cap tables, the PL tables have become an all out draw fest, since I don’t believe in any two will do theory of poker its time to move to something else, I think I will try some 1/2 or even 2/4 and see what happens there.

Difficult to play poker when you suddenly find that your spaceship has been shot down by ugly covenant aliens, and it’s your job master chief to shoot anything that moves and save the universe. If you ask Tilt wife what present is my most favorite, it’s a trip to Half Price bookstore…used books, used everything. Tilt Son found a copy of “Halo”. OMFG this game is one big addiction, and yes jjok, there were dirty dishes in the house. Not much poker, but plenty of dead aliens the Tilt house over the weekend. Now if I can just figure out how to steal Tilt Son’s uber mega video card, and hardwire it to the laptop (not likely).

Why oh why, do I listen to the gecko?

Yes, I like the cap tables; yes I make money on the $3 cap tables. Yes, the gecko hates these tables, so what does he do? Sucker me into the $7.50 cap tables, land of the one outer and two outer outdraws….except I was the one being outdrawn. Not ready to move up to these limits apparently, due to the massive swings that occur, I’ll be back on the kiddy tables tonight were I can afford the outdraws. They make fly swatters; do they make one big enough for a 6’2” gecko?

On a good note…I saved 20% on my car insurance……

THE HUMAN RECOURSE DEPARTMENT NEEDS YOU!!!! PLEASE SEND YOUR BANK ACCOUNT, ITS LEGIT...REALLY!!!!!

post your bank account number in comments, I'll forward to my new employers.

Redemption!!!! Hallelujah!!!

So it didn’t start off well, at all. Lost about $30 last night in the first few hours continuing the downswing and then I had a eureka moment. No matter what I am holding, on these tables you are going to the showdown, more often then not. AHA!!! I’ve trained on the donkey $3-$6 tables at Harrah’s; I know how to play this game. Must have best hand by the river, must outdraw fish.

I ended up making up all my losses and getting up over $4. Not a monster profit there, but enough of a profit to show that my strategy was working. It’s really not about aggression any more from what I see, and if I am wrong, comments would help. Although the tables are fairly tight (2-3 players seeing it to the river) it is enough of a shift that the strategy in my opinion must shift. I am opening up what I go in pre flop with, and folding if I don’t make anything worth drawing to. I have also stopping making crying calls on the river, why? The fish always have something, although top pair top kicker worked out okay too.

Hopefully now that I figured a strategy that seems to work – the fish won’t adjust dammit!!!

WTF? Or wow, these PP players really, really suck!!!!

According to Two plus two forums, there have been roughly 2000 players added to FTP since the ban, and according to other bloggers and myself, these people suck at poker. Not just suck a little, but OMFG what the hell are you doing in this hand and how the hell do you hit a flop with Q frigging 9 OFF? And make trips? And then the other asshole that called sucks out the nut flush with A 9 c? Oh did my aces ever flame out on that hand, and then my KK dies to 9 7 off, when you flop a straight….NH sir, please stay, just stop getting lucky. I know, you want these people to play, I know that you will win over the long term; I know that we need the fish, but HOLY CRAP I am tilty. This is why I stopped playing poker last night, and proceeded to get the shit kicked out of me by the robot on jungle gin (thanks pogo.com, my ego really needed that kick in the shorts)….apparently I still have not paid off that karmic debt that I owe, and I am still paying.

Seriously, I know that I am not supposed to tilt, and If I do, stop frantically typing into the chat box (I have stopped doing this, but I lost a few fingers chewing them off) YOU ARE AN IDIOT!!!!. But short of drinking myself into oblivion, I am having trouble figuring out how to respond. I do like the way JJOK responded by bullying someone with the hammer, JJOK you are my hero, but hell, he sounds more pissed off than I do. Not to mention that I am whining about losing about ten bucks total and it sounds like he has lost a lot more than that.

We need to not scare off the fish, but somehow, we need to be able to weather these horrific bad beats without completely going insane….Waiter, make mine a double scotch…easy on the ice, and second thought…just give the *(**&%&^& bottle.

Thank you Party!!!!

Have to say I really, really, really hated party, the interface sucked, couldn’t stand the donktastic players, and blah, blah, blah. The truth is, it wasn’t the site, it wasn’t the players, it was me. Since playing at full tilt I think I have been playing better, and have learn to “feel” the board much better. I still have a few leaks I have to work on, about my blinds. I have a bad habit of protecting my blinds and running into trouble, and really, really tilting when it doesn’t.

Since party has left the US, more tables are being played at full tilt. However, I would say the play has gone down, but I am in a better position to take advantage of the poor play. Have to send out a HUGE shout out to tiltwife, she came in a DESTROYED the two tables I was on, catching me in the crossfire a few times, oh well; it goes into the same account. We had the pleasure of playing with the old gang a bit, vgas was there (my favorite bad luck charm), casino205 was playing better than ever, glad I stayed out of her way for the most part.

I think I am going to dip my toe back into the SNG world, and see what I find; I seem to be making it deeper into these things, except for the damn Mookie, lol.

Not much else to say, thanks for reading and comments are welcome!!!!!
