Didn't think I was going to be playing today however was feeling ok so decided to start just before 9am. Got in for a decent amount no real runs early then started developing some stacks towards the end of my session. Anyway ran real fucked in endgame came 14th in UB 30 rebuy 15k gtd ran TT into the mighty deuces for an overwhelming CL and obv he flops a set! Last ten bbs 44 < AK gg.
So the outcome of the session is riding on the FTP $55 50k guarantee (fifty-fifty). As some of you might know this tournament is much loved by me as it was responsible for my biggest online score for a long time, a 3rd for 4800ish back in early 2009 when I was probably horrible. Anyway was sitting pretty 8/18 then promptly run TT into AA and my last 6 bbs K3 into KK. Thanks Mr Lederer, fuck you, 18th.
went out last night for "Manishfest 2" return of the pone. For a recap of the nights shenanigans watch this space: http://thelifeofapone.blogspot.com/ My night was pretty loose, started at unibar @ 4pm and ended up stumbling outta Ivory at no idea what time im assuming sometime around midnight ended up passed out on the bed in the war room no idea why lol. Its official that Anthony "profiletrawler" Yeoman is an idiot for some reason we had to do straight vodka shots because anything else impacts on his diet not juance! Never again almost vommed it str8 back up.
In other news heading to Perth on Saturday for a weeks poker in the Sapphire series they are holding; should be pretty good im excited cause ive never been there before. Obv going with Rennie "brickshithouse" Carnevale hopefully if we run real good we can knock over a ton of the 200k challenge.
Also a big shout out to Benn "risk2dupside" Skender who broke outta his downswing in style winning both the Big Double A and the Stars 11 cubed today! 1 win away from a triple crown so gogogo!

Yeah so made for a satisfying end to another frustrating day; I also FTd the UB $82.50 Turbo and ran 5th; I was 2nd with AKs and obv lost vs the chip leaders AJo for a massive CL zzzz ended up with 800ish for that. Also FTd the $16.50 360 cap and ran 8th. Another big FT bubble as well; got 15th in the early 20 rebuy on tilt. Can definetely feel another big score coming, I feel like im playing really well at the moment and not making so many retarded mistakes which can often happen if you not in the zone. Also got my buy ins back under control today - bankroll management baby...
Going out now for Manishfest #2; should be pretty epic and I very much doubt I will in any state to grind tommorrow.

going backwards....
As the title suggests, the last couple of day havent exactly gone according to plan. Played footy on saturday and had a very average game, got my hands on the ball a ton but sprayed away in front of goals, ended up with 2 goals from 8 shots on goal... And we fucking lost by 14 points or something, hard not to feel somewhat responsible. Anyway, Casey and I headed up to Homebush to watch the Swans get pumped by their nemesis side Collingwood who for those who dont know anything about AFL is filled with some of the most shit eating shit eaters to have ever kicked a Sherrin (eg. Didak, Davis, Travis Cloke, and the fucking fairy Dale Thomas).
After driving back from Sydney I decided that midnight was a great time to start an MTT session (this is not correct). I always end up regoing for too long and nodding off towards the end not to mention to loss of focus etc from being overtired. Bricked everything while playing too high... gg -$3k. One FT a mighty 9th in the 27.50 360 cap. Bout the only funny thing of the night was getting a phone call from Jack "outline" Dobinson @ the weee hours of 6am; the shit eater is very lucky I was up playing and not in bed where I should have been. Anyway the dude is outta and sounds completely manished and being the good mate that I am manage to top up his account with $100 and then think nothing of it as I go to bed. Anyway next thing I know I am being pizzled by the man himself who has somehow managed to get himself from Kings Cross into my bedroom and proceeds to pizzle the shit outta me for a good half an hour before retiring to sleep himself at the impressive time of 11am. Managed to fuck him off though when James "gollumbody" Dixon came to pick him up, thanks dicky-nee.
Continued my powernap then headed round to Bull n Sams for a latish lunch. Sam crushes the kitchen so hard BBQ ribs and potato salad purity! Just chillaxed and watched the footy then headed to Casey's mums for dinner (so fucking good not cooking yourself). Came home flicked the season finale of underbelly on; tbh the whole 3rd series was very meh, a little better than the 2nd but the 1st one remains a standout. Bricked the ANZPT satellite I run like fucking aids against the live pros who play them (eg Wennie Shhhhhteeeel). Gratz to the big man tho he managed to win himself a package for Queenstown ANZPT - we are heading over in July for a weeks snowboarding then some poker should be an epic good trip. Hopefully I can snag a seat for myself somehow, worst comes to the worst I should be able to sell off action.
I was in bed my the time Rennie was shipping; gotta get some sleep before the big Monday session. The session itself was a fucking punish, such a cock tease. Went deep in absolutely everything came 30th/1400 and 30th/1200 in the two massive 75 FOs on FTP very very rigged lost AK < KK in the 1st and AA < KQo ... Also 47th in the early fuper plus 16th in the late 20 rebuy on stars to bubble the FT AGAIN. Prob the most tilting bust of the day was the 20rebuy 6max on FTP in 14th; some fish decided to stop and go his J8o OOP and somehow flops the world somehow having the Jc on the 986ccc and besting my 77. Well played sir, hope to see you soon at the tables... Did make 2 very small FTs to end the session in slight profit: got 3rd in the $5r25a for 600ish and won a small 33 turbo on FTP for 1200. Way to run good in my lowest buy ins... zzzzz. Was a bit happier with my ABI as I managed to cut some of the bigger stuff and am gonna try and keep it < $50 for the meantime. Definetely due for a decent score too.
RESULTS:
Sunday night session: -$2,997.26/ABI: $77/MTTs: 42/ITM: 14%/FTs: 1

Wednesday night out, subsequent manishment, and a tough day at the office
Had a pretty horrible day at the tables while playing higher = a pretty easy way to lose some decent $$$. Its funny how sometimes it just doesnt happen for you some days - today I felt the most switched on and pumped to play I have in a while, and made a ton of promising runs. Bubbled some big stuff, nightly 100k & 70k on stars as well as FTP $163 ten off the money KK < KTs AIPF zzz. Didnt cash anything more than $400 and the deepest run of the day was the stars 20 rebuy which I was monoing and ended up flopping the world with ATdd vs AA AIPF 2 tables out: Flop 964dd turn 7 giving me extra outs and a big brick on the river for a very unspectacular 12th. Also racked up another pretty deep finish in the early stuper unded up coming 27th running KK into AA for a top 3 stack, pretty gross.
Anyway I have a day off tommorrow playing @ full forward for the mightly Uni of Wollongong reserve grade vs Bomaderry then going to see the Pies hopefully eat shit and die vs the Sydney swans tomoro night.
Went out on Wednesday night and got unbelievably manished... Town was absolutely packed despite the drizzling rain as every uni student in Wollongong bar Hamish "Im not getting drunk tonight" Gorman had finished their exams. Regardless, who do I bump into @ Ivory but the man himself off his head! He proudly showed me some smudged barely legible scribble on his hand which apparently said: "You have an exam tommorrow; do not get too drunk tonight". Classic! Eagerly awaiting the exam results for that one...
But I digress. The night actually started with dinner @ North gong with Casey, JC, Rennie "shrek" Carnivale and Tim "chasingKesby" Dains. Steak n a few beers later we say goodbye to the girls (this includes Rennie obv because in his mind Gym > Socialising) "you dont get biceps like this hanging out at the pub". Grabbing a 6 pack of premix Jimmys (brings me back to my 18yr old days when I could only afford Cougar n cokes) me n Tim head to Luke "McGrog" Mcgregor house where we meet up with Dobbo and some of Luke's mates and proceed to predrink it up while pizzling the shit out of Simmo "jizzpants" Irish who is failing spectacularly at doing an assignment apparently a lazy four weeks overdue (at what stage do you give up) To Simmo's credit he did man up and drive us into town; in return I might pass him the ball on the weekend @ footy.
So packed arse Ivory ran into the one and only James "big Koots" Cayley; Chloe, among endless numbers of other individuals by this stage recollections are getting a little hazy due to peer pressured Jagerbombs (i fuckin hate jagerbombs) as well as endless bourbons (who can pass up Wild Turkeys in happy hour). Across the road to Glasshouse the manishment continues with Chad "Dobbly" Kroeger. I distinctly remember a few things; ran into Millhouse who seemed to have lost the ability to speak which did not deter him from shouting incoherent nothings in my ear. I actually saw James the next afternoon who was still passed out on the floor of his place, but I definetely understood his "fuck off" when I asked him how he was feeling looooooooool. Other memories include going drink for drink Jack n lemonades with Brad "PDF" Golledge, by the 3rd one we were lapping them outta the glass to demonstrate to some rookie 18 year old fish why we were shouting "MOTHERS MILK" at the top of our lungs. Also got pizzled by this dude who was an Austrian exchange student back in Year 8 in high school who has been in the Austrian army for a couple of years and is now built like a brick shithouse and proceeded to crush my hand while giving me some motivational dribble about making the most of my potential... obv poker doesnt count and today certainly didnt benefit from his uplifting speech.
Manage to escape on the bus to Castros with Jack "paddlepoplion" Dobbo who is as paralytic as I am by this stage. If anyone can fill in the blanks for me in this stage it would be much appreciated only thing i remember is seeing John"thatdeafguy" Ziogas outside in the smoking area... very standard good to see him loving life though. Next thing I remember im by myself at Fat Boy Pide - accused the dude working behind the counter of trying to fuck with me because the drinks fridge was on the other side of the shop than the last time I was in there.. Smash down my barbecue Meatlovers pide which is fucking pure: pide >>> kebab imo. Also semi-abused some chick who used to work behind the bar at cooneys when we were 18 year old menaces; it was standard operating procedure to powerspew @ 11 after starting drinking when happy hour started @ 9. Those nights were fucking pure; I have very fond memories of being stoked when you got up $5 in the pokies - because that was enough to buy the amazing $5 combo of one Carlton Draught and a bourbon and coke!! anyway I accused this chick of being responsible for the fact that Im not as intelligent now as I used to be and that she singlehandly caused the destruction of many of my brain cells.
She laughs it off --> cab ---> home and I slumber til midday upon which I wake up fucking manished which lasts with me all day and night, I almost vom multiple times at footy training. Not the only one feeling the effect though; messages received from Dobbo on Thursday:
* "wow what did i do to myself last night im in agony!"
to which my reply was:
"I'm dying ive got the junkie shakes"
and he comes back with:
"Mate im fucked im convinced im actually dying"
for those interested in what Jack did last night he crumbled his soul back @ mcgrogs on what looked like possibly the worst pull out bed in the world while the soccer was on. Thursday night he had to go to work teaching little kids how not to drown unrucky Dobbly appropriately summed up by Dixon "HAVE FUN AT WORK CUNT"
yeah there may be a reason I dont punish my liver that hard that often. Looks like Dixon had fun last night though I will post a quote from Facebook today (for those people who dont know Dixon, the amount of shit he posts on facey in a day is directly correlated to the level of manishment he is enduring).

2nd day; lots of deep runs, proft.
grrrrrrrrrrr such a frustrating day. I know I should be happy but cant help feeling a touch hard done by...
started @ 4.45am like a good grinder should no real love early except for a 3rd in 27.50 big antes on stars for 800.
Finished regoing @ midday and watched as a number of nice stacks began to appear in my last ten or so tables. Ended up finishing 10th in probably the biggest FT bubble in my career in the late FTP $163 FO ($21k for 1st) and busting A9 < 99 shorty on shorty violence.
Taking this in my stride managed to win A8cc > JJ on the FT bubble of the UB $130 sniper. Flop xxx one club turn club me and Crammy both fistpumping the club river hardcore and instead bink the A on the river to go into the FT 7/9. Ended up with the CL early after AA > JJ (FUCKING SWEAT flop QT9 and then bricks out gg) then got 3 handed and 4 bet jammed AJ into the most active player left on the table gg QQ is good. Next hand back to 10bbs A5 > aggro dudes K5 and then very NEXT hand he raises the button i ship QQ he snaps A2o and flop 26A obv lol gg wp etc etc etc FUCK. End result 3rd for $3,300; not a bad result considering i was 7th going into the FT but really wanted the 7800 for 1st obv.
End up monoing the $26 28k gtd on tilt to finish up my session. go from 2/16 to finsh 14th zzzzzzzzz. Those lower stakes freezeouts are a bit of a crapshoot late; everyone is trying to make the FT by folding and you cant really afford to lose to many pots >30bbs. Anyway shoved Q6 < shortys AJ blind vs blind then blinded down, blinds up and snapped off a BTN shove with KTdd and brick out vs AJo gg 14th.
Still cant complain with another winning day; going to head out now to celebrate + celebrate end of exams with dinner then manishment @ north gong and other assorted fine drinking establishments in the Gong with Wennie Shhhhhhhteeeeel and the rest of the uni kids.
Nothing else of note except that I almost died making my return filling in for the powerhouse of Wollongong Tuesday night indoor cricket that is the Headies Shreddies last night. After the 1st (of four) overs I was ready to call for the ambulance as I was on the verge of a heart attack; luckboxed only getting out a couple of times while my batting partner Neil proudly showed off wat he's learnt @ the mighty Keira Lions by steering our combo through to post a respectable total. Then got my run good on bowling somehow binking 4 wickets through a combination of full tosses, short balls and one amazing slower ball with Simmo "Drazic" Williams expertly cleaning the fool up behind the wickets. And bink end score 120 - 70 odd gg texas hammer shralping ring ins.
Must get fit if I am ever going to be able to play any position apart from full forward...

New blog; 6 months 200k
So i figured it was about time I started one of these. Hopefully this signifies the start of a new period in my life; ive decided to but uni on hold for six months (with every intention of going back) and grind hardcore with the goal of making 200k in six months between me and Rennie "Steel" "I bench Bobbis" Carnevale. So that leaves me with 100k to make between now and Christmas 2010 I guess. I plan to keep putting in good volume and hopefully run half decent - its a pretty achievable goal. And of course if I fall a little short then its not like ive exactly wasted my time. I also plan on using the extra time to "try" and get fit (I know ive been saying that for years) but exercise is a great release, especially after sitting at a desk for 8-14 hours at a time.
Err so 1st day was ok I guess, had some deep runs finishing:
-2nd in the 5r25a (aka the Risk2dupside invitational) for 875
- 3rd in 20r 7.5k on UB for 1kish
- 3rd in 75PL 6k on FTP for 840
- 8th in 44 turbo on stars for 255
plus assorted other cashes got 12th i think in the 50r on UB and busted my last table ($109 2nd chance) in spectacular fashion calling a 10bb shove and a 15bb reshove with TT from the BB; facing QJ and AK flop T8x turn 9 riv brick obv for the CL with 20 to go. Still a win is a win...
Results: +$545.64 ABI $61 from 56 mtts [4 FTs; 1 bubble]
In other news, James "mbntoponeonadancefloornearyou" Dixon came over and is the proud new owner of a fresh new Full Tilt account and with my rough guidance while multitabling my session managed to win his 1st $1.10 45 man sng!! If dixon manages a transformation into an online grinder he is seriously going to be the most famous person in Wollongong as he is already known all over town by both bouncers and pub patrons as the skinny manished pubehead losing his shit on a dance floor near you...
Anyway the upcoming week is probably going to be a struggle as im sure I will be getting fucked up on potentially Wednesday and Thurday night so I may be in for some late starts. Manished grind... that pizzling!
