Man am I busy!

The last two weeks been great! The job is going superb at the moment and I get involved in a lot of really cool things and I am getting more and more responsibility and am starting to supervise a team and to make changes to things where I find then necessary. So cool.

Other than that I am owing you the result of my one month journey of live cash grinding. The challenge ended on Wednesday 15.July when my girlfriend arrived.
Challenge accomplished ladies and gentlemen. I am a proud little fucker now. Just a shame I can't grind as much anymore now.

Booooom:

Weekend ahead

I actually wanted to post some hilarious videos that I've got of myself but I need to do a couple of very annoying things before I can put them up here. So I'll do that whenever I feel like it which will probably be around 2013 I guess. Maybe earlier. Who knows.

Next week my girlfriend will finally be with me which I am very much looking forward too. Those 5 weeks where the longest period we have ever been apart from each other in over 4 years.

On the other hand that means that this is probably the last weekend were a can grind the local poker games freely as a fish in the open sea. Next week I'll go back in the tank.

I have a fair chance to actually complete my challenge and reach the £1000 pounds profit mark within the next few days. So please wish me good luck and some running good.

88,3 kg

I'm still in the company flat as I haven't got any Internet in the new flat so far but that should be sorted next week. Telefonica said that they will need 4 days to sort me out. I think that's abosolutely brilliant. Yesterday I began to bring some of the heavy boxes to the flat and basically starting to move in. I parked my car in the underground garage and from there I put all my stuff in the lift and wanted to go on the floor where my flat is. I obviously blocked the lift door so I could calmly put all teh boxes from the car in it.
Eh, well, the lift didn't like that and decided not to do anything anymore. It's about 37 degrees outside and I can't get the lift moving. "you are joking me" "oh my god that can't be true!" "oh, fuck off you fucking piece of fucking technology" "MOVE YOU FUCKER"

Those are pretty much exactly the things I was screaming towards the lift getting louder at the end. So I considered my options.

1. Bring the stuff upstairs using the staircase (I live on the first floor so from the undergroung garage it is two floors up and an estimated 36 - 44 steps.

2. Bring the stuff back to the car, drive up in front of the house to the ground floor and get the stuff up to the flat using the staircase between floor 0 and floor one something between 16 to 22 steps.

3. Get the stuff back in the car and wait till the lift gets repaired next week and try again then.

4. Leave the stuff where it is, go down the road and find some kids that would carry the stuff up into my flat for a rediculous underpayment.

Well I went for option one and had gone up and down 11 times so far. Sweating like a polar bear in a sauna. One box left in the lift.
I just came back out from the appartment to go back down to get this last fucking box when I can hear "ding dong" from the lift that arrived on my floor, opening the doors and showing that it carried up the last box for me. If I would not have been that exhausted I obv would have exploded and probably puked in the lifts face but I just didn't have any energy left. It was completely silent around but it felt like I heard the lift laughing at me in ear-deafening noise.

I'll definitely get him back. At the latest that will be the first time when I come home pissed and have a wee into the corner of that cunt. I called the lift Eddie btw.


Contrary to what I said last week I didn't go and play cash that day and didn't go the next day either. I went the last two days and they have truly been exciting rollercoaster rides.

Friday started super bad again running KK into AA again! The pot was actually a 4 way all-in with two shorties involved as well that had KJ and A9s. Was an early hit. A few hands later I see KK again and make standard raise UTG and get called by UTG+1. Everybody else folded! Wtf! I flop a set, make a super weak c-bet and opponent snap folds. I make £5.50 profit in that hand.

Suddenly a second table opens and a group of young spaniards and two girls sit down at the table. Me and my mate from work instantly stand up sit down at the other table with the max buy-in of £150. UTG raises to 6 and I make it 16 with AA UTG+1. UTG calls with now about £50 behind and we see a 734 rainbow flop. The girl checks to me and my bet gets check/raised by her. I move all in and she goes in the tank and finally calls me with AK. Ship.

I am not gonna write everything down as most of you guys are probably sick of reading about a poker hand. So I am only gonna report two more hands.
I got 52cc OTB. There are 4 limpers in already and CO makes it 4. I call and the BB suddenly makes it 10. One limper calls, CO calls. How could I fold here for £6 into £35. Flop is KJ5 two clubs. This is probably the best I could have hoped for. BB bets 10 and the two other players fold. I decide to play my draw passively and flat it. Turn is blank and BB bets 10 again. I flat it again and the river is the much needed Queen of clubs. BB now checks and I decided to move all in (something I learned to do in the right spots against a certain kind of player) for about 90 quid and the spaniard snap calls with AJo. LOL. When he saw my flush he was like "oh no, didn't see the flush, oh no" Brilliant. Third pair FTW.

Now in between I lost two biggish pots with 98 and top two against the turned higher top two and with 88 on a 8KK board when the turn brought another K to counterfit my set and make AA hold up.

I am down quite a bit when the dealer announces "last three hands". In the penultimate hand I find 88 again we see a six way raised pot. I flop a set again. Cut off bets 20. I call. BB calls. UTG calls. ?!?.

I decide to donk the turn for £60 and get two calls. I move all in on the river when the board pairs and get two calls again. I show my hand and both of them muck. I win a £500 pot to bring a tidy £270 profit for the night. Man was I happy about this hand.

Yesterday was fun as well but I don't think anyone wants to read more poker stuff now. So may be later. Yesterday's profit was £75 btw.

Just if you are wondering about the title of the post. Yesterday I stepped on my scale the first time for weeks and 88,3 kg was what it said to me. Meaning I have lost ca. 22 kg so far this year. This is more than 3 Stone!

Pictures of my new place!

Some pictures of my new appartment.






This is a bit ugly atm but it will probably become the office anyway. Definitely needs some changing.





Both of the bathrooms have huge mirrors.









I...

Yuck

Still no proper post. Sorry. Had a horrible session last night with £250 down the pan. Getting 4's in vs. K's on a QJ4 rainbow board for the river to be a King. That was just 20 mins after I had 97 on a 68T board against the same player. Got it in obv and he showed J9. The turn brought the queen. From there I tilted and spewed. Last hand I played I check/raise bluffed a PF 3-bettor on a 346 board when I had basically no pair and no draw with A9 and he had flopped the nuts with 57. Disgusting.

The combination of runnig shit and playing worse can be really fucking expensive.
Wouldn't even be that dramatic if the villain wouldn't be one of the most annoying fuckholes I ever played with. What a fucking dickhead. I think I need to put in a very suitable and appropriate sentence of Mr Ptevey's blog here just because it makes me feel better: "Eddie, whoever you think you are, I am coming round to your house and pissing in your face and shitting on your wife."

aahhhh what a relieve.

Today would normally be the break from the Casino as I should get some sleep. But I will go and I will be running hot. hm... such a shame. Stayed away from the Roulette now for a while and will leave it like this.

What a shit post this is but at least I got it off my mind now. I really felt like telling somebody about how bad I ran yesterday. Hey you, somebody, thanks for listening. What you mean? You are deaf? FML.

One little positive side note before I'll go on drowning in self-pity. I found a beautiful appartment which I will be moving into next week. I'll really have to find out how to post pictures as that would make you, dear readers, throw up in the places you live in. No offense. :-) Just one detail for now: I've got a Jacuzzi!
