Got me some 50 fresh new dollar yesterday on Titan Poker though a nodeposit bonus here at bankrollmob (thanks alot). Afters busting a few buyins on the 0.10/0.20 cash tables i entered a 10+1 dollar tournament (lousy bankroll managment i know, but I love playing multi table tournaments). The tournament went pretty well, I ended up somewhere around 36 (payed about 40) after going out on 2 pretty fast runner runner all in loses, the second one kindda stung with A10 suited pre flop vs J10 os, but I was shortstack by then anyways so what can you do.
Just fired up the pokerlobby and im about to start of my poker day. Right now im good for $85.79, ill try to update this time as time goes. GAME ON!
------------ Off to a decent start, trippled up at my tournament (only 2 dollas this time=) and doubled at my cash table (10 dollah)
------------ gah, went ok in the tournament untill i cought KK, lost to a pre flop all in by a guy with about 2/3 of my stack with 44. Well he caught the set it happens. What bothers me is that i was still a pretty large stack when i got moved to a new table. Blinds are up to 400/800 by then, i was on late position with A10 and about 12k stack. 1 guy limped in and the rest folded so i raised to 5000 pre flop. Sure enough there a lovely ace on the flop. The only guy who called checked to me, i thought about it for a while since there was a K on the flop to but i figured i had the best time at that point, maby he had a low PP or a straight draw. I push all in and he calls like lightning. he shows 88, that gotta make you wonder. anyways he hit the 8 on the river and im out :/. it´s poker i guess but it´s still annoying =).
Atleast im doing pretty allright on the cashtable. I´m up to $100 dollah now!

Hmmm just went a bit overboard on a rebuy tournament, down to 80 again for now. i´ll keep playing for a while though.
I´m playing pretty allright, maby not the best poker ive ever played but still, a few bad moves but other then that im keeping it nice and focused. My nickname on Titan Poker is Bombo12 btw.
I can also add that I accually blew up yesterday after going out on a tournament, usually im a well mannered guy at the tables but you know, some days it piles up on you. I wasnt to much of an ass anyways. But now im calm and steady again. Going for some Sit and Go´s. GAME ON
On a side note, what do you guys thknk about the double up sit and go´s, are they worth while?
------------ Also, i seem to have a girl icon on titan poker if you spot me on the tables -.-. i dont know why
------------ Allright now ive been tilting a bit and playing reckless, gotta remember to stop earlier tommorow. working night kind of takes the edge of in the evning. Anyways im still at 70 (69$) so atleast im moving forward. had i stayed away from the rebuy tournaments i would probably be aproaching 200 or something. should have would have could have =). Tommorrow i will try to be more disiplined when i play. Godnight mates -.-
------------ on a side note i might have just broken a finger playing blackjack at a different poker site. temper temper bombo =) stupid bad beats in black jack =)

I hit a bad streak mate, a really bad one -.-. I still feel i made the right plays and so forth, but i still lost a heapload of cash. It wasnt extreamely bad beats they just came at the wrong time. Tournaments mostly, I started playing Omaha cash games, that prolly the reason i lost out there.
I´ll be back in another month or something, right now I am in No mood to play poker.
I accually broke my computer screen after one of the big one =). Gotta get my poker temper under control =).

Unfortunately this can happen when you can't control yourself after bad beats. I also went through this, but now I think I can handle these situations. When you have about 100 dollars, you shouldn't buy in to 10+1 tournaments..i think. It's a good decision to have a break when you on totally tilt.

I got freakin slow rolled!!!!! about 40 players left out of 250 (30 cash) in a 40 (about) dollah tourney. Atm i was placed about 5 (1-10 were pretty close by that time, a double up would have given anyone a pretty nice lead) and I hit AQ suited (spades)at a 10 person table. Im in early position. I had about 25k in my stack at that time, second on my table to a guy who went on a rampage about 30-60 min earlier when i beat his ace high with a flush. (me 10J spader flop 8s9sAH, all in and i caught on the river, i was pretty low at that time). Anyways the blinds are i think 250/500 with some antes and i decided to raise to 1000. Everyone folds but this guy. Needles to say i dont like it. the flop: AA10. i bet 2/3 of the pot he reraises to half my stack. This guy had been calling me down on everything ever since i put him down with the flush, so i was pretty sure he was just trying to steal another one....again. Anyways i decide to go for it (bad play? sure it was but i just couldnt see him not reraising 1010 or AK pre flop. and the guy starts waiting, his whole time, then he uses the extra time. ALL OF IT He calls and turns over A10 os after about 45 seconds. you cant say thats not a douche move...I hate slowrollers. Whats the ffreakin point?
------------ i also i cashed in 3-4 tournaments on the same day. 3 final table etc so im back at it again. I do love playing multi table tournaments. this time, NO OMAHA! =)
------------ hehe yea dude, the swallings gone down now though, and i had an extra comp screen in my room so no problem =). No broken fingers or nothing, i guess im not that good at punching -.-

You have probably already noticed but.. from 'Options' in the lobby, you can actually choose from several different avatars. It will be saved to all tables then.. until u decide to change it the next time. Lycka till!
