Back to the grind

Havnt been playing much poker the past few weeks. I just wasnt enjoying playing which lead to February being my 1st losing month in a long time. Although after rakeback, I was only down a couple of buy-ins.

This month Iv mainly been playing some rush poker on full tilt, although the 1 time I played on PKR, i had a very bad session. In a previous blog I mentioned that Id busted my roll on FT. Well, I had exactly $41 left from rakeback. So Iv just been goofing around, 1 tabling whilst watching tv. I started at .10/.25. I was soon upto over $100, so decided to move upto .25/.50. Within 1 week I had over 1k, without playing above .25/.50. Iv since then played some .50/1, but have just about broke even. The difference between the games I found to be quite big. At NL50, there's no 3/4 betting light at all. It's very straightforward. At NL100, everyone seems to be super aggro. I swear my button opens get 3bet over 50% of the time. And if I 3bet on the button, Im getting 4bet a ton.

Even though I can play 4-5 times as many hands, I dont think my hourly rate is as high as it is on PKR. The games are tougher so my winrates alot lower. Plus the varience is alot higher. I think ill stick to PKR, and just play some rush poker for fun, or if Iv only got 20mins to play or w/e. Im going to start grinding again 2day, Iv actually missed playing (i dont count 1 tabling low stakes as playing, just fun). I need to get back into the zone :)

I watched some sport relief the other night, and I couldnt help thinking, why the fuck would anyone give money to these people. Seriously, if I lived in poverty, and/or had HIV I wouldnt bring a child into the world. It's so unfair. Stop fucking breeding, you scumbags!!!

Another thing that annoys me about charity's is how such a small % actually reaches the 'victims'. Although Id never give money, I would like to actually go and physically help them. Like go help build a school, or a well, or whatever. That way you get to see the difference you make.

Saw shutter island the other night. It is absolutely awesome. Iv never been a fan of martin scorsese's films but I highly recommend you check it out.

Also congrats to kingand77, on his 22k cash in the party 300k.
