Wow I’ve been so busy lately. I took a small road trip to a bmx camp in jala slot 428 PA with a bunch of friends, I’m working on another poker site, I came in second in a small $10 tournament full of crazy poker bloggers, and then after all that good stuff my laptop died.
WoodWard was crazy. In the summer it’s a huge extreme sports camp packed out with kids and pros, but when we went there it was completely empty. We pretty much had the place to ourselves for 3 days. It was cheap also! Just $130 each including a whole bed and breakfast INN to ourselves. The riding was crazy, the breakfast was amazing, the Amish people are still funny, we hung out with some pros, and I hope we do it again next year. I wish I had some pictures.
I haven’t been playing to much poker lately but I placed 2nd out of a field of 55 bloggers in a shorthanded tournament on poker stars. No matter what the prize pool, a final table in a tournament is always fun.
I felt pretty confident during the whole tournament. I didn’t play weak or aggressive really – I just shadowed out, played a few hands, and avoided risking chips. I don’t even think I was in any coin flip situations before I got to the final table as the short stack. The heads up match was really close for a while, but I made a sort of bad read and my streak of 2nd place MTT finishes continues. I put my opponent on a flush draw, and he was on a flush draw, but he also hit a higher pair on the turn when the chips went in. Props to Trip Jax for setting the DADI tournaments up.
But then just when I thought everything was going good my laptop dies. One minute it’s working fine, and the next minute the hard drive breaks. I had a bunch of stuff organized for my new site on it, and loads of other programs and files that are all lost. Oh well. I thought I was going to need to get a new laptop but they said they can put in a new hard drive and fix some other stuff for about $400… So I’ll be lap-topless for a week.
For some reason I really don’t care though. It’s not as bad as losing $1,000 after a Aks vs A3o bad beat from Scott Fischman, or $2,500 from a 10-1 outdraw during 10/20plo. And that’s not nearly as bad as some other things i’ve seen people go through. Poker made me immune to bad beats.
