JADED

Well its been a hectic few days and not much poker has been played since I lost that big pot early last week. I went and invested in a top-of-the-range PC which set me back around a thousand bucks and did some heavy drinking with my mates over the weekend.

When Monday rolled around I had an itch to get a few hands under my belt and I thought that the 25 euro rebuy tournament in the Sporting Emporium would be a good place to get my groove back. My live play had been superb of late and I was hoping to log another solid performance. I won’t reflect on the tournament too much as it was an out-and-out disaster wherin I played so bad that I was actually embarrassed to be sitting at the table.
I was playing hands in my usual style preflop however once thee flop hit I mutated into a weak-passive-fish. By the time the top-up period arrived I couldn’t even purchase the 3000 chips on offer as I had already reloaded the maximum number of times for the game. Needless to say I made a swift exit shortly after the break.
I then sat in a cash game and did considerably better. In the end I registered about 160 euros profit for the evening.

This evening my 200euro Neteller lodgement finally hit my account and I went to Party Poker and played some cash games. They didn’t go at all well and I’m down to roughly 80$ in my neteller account. I’m not actually all that pushed on playing too much at present, I’m actually feeling pretty exhausted and I really don’t want to blow the healthy amount of cash I’ve assembled whilst I’m in my current state. I think I’ll restrict myself to low stakes HORSE games online as well as the odd live game for the next two weeks.
I will abide by the strategy I outlined earlier later in the month when I feel that I’ve regained my desire to win.
For the time being it’s the gym, work, movies, videogames and Christmas shopping for me….
