I was in another amazing game at The Vic last night.
I got my seat on table 24, but spotted a juicer game on 25, the game was playing super deep and I actually thought it was a £1-£3 game.
I folded for a couple of orbits and eventually got my transfer across.
The only face I recognised was that fucking Jew Ben. Ben’s the old fucking guy who has some problems with me for one reason or another, and is just a fucking cunt. Plays like a fucking cunt too.
He runs super good, and I am just amazed when this guy’s hands go to showdown, I try and figure out what goes through his Jew head but simply can’t figure it out. He might not be Jewish by the way, but meh.
Shortly after I sit down I witness a hand he plays, where he somehow jams his stack of £300ish in on an A 8 2 flushing flop versus an uber donk, who reluctantly calls with A4 off. The board bricks out (the flush might of actually got there) the uber donk timidly tables his shitty hand, Ben mucks. WTF?
Ben fucks off and we get Andre the Bulgarian. In a straddle pot Andre raises to £24 on the button and gets 3 COLD callers, including some girl (semi-reg Chinese degen) with J9, who actually check shoves over Andre’s £80ish continuation bet on a 10 8 x board, she gets there on the turn, Andre mucks. Weee...
We then get the 40 year old virgin (you either know who this is or your don’t!) join the game and open UTG to £12 with QQ, the uber donk who stacked Ben earlier is now nursing a short stack (£100 ish) and decided to 3 bet jam with K6 off, and promptly gets called. The board runs out 6 6 x x K.
K6 off? Why K6 off? What the fuck goes through these morons heads seriously?
I am sat there in my usual auto –muck mode, and eventually pick up AA on the button. I see that the uber donk has limped (along with a few others); I pop it up to £15. The uber donk jams! I snap. He tables A9, board bricks out.
I had literally folded every hand since my arrival at least 2 hours prior to this hand, but this guy obviously didn’t notice, or just felt like he wanted to give me a spin!
Some weird European dude joins the game and sits quietly for about 3 hours next to me, then out of nowhere gets his stack in on a complete bluff with something like 5 high on an ace high board drawing dead. WTF? It’s like these guys just snap, they plan on playing tight and solid, but eventually they just lose the fucking plot!
Our game gets shorthanded, and I have to do the moronic card room staff’s job for them let again, and manage to get our game broken.
I join an equally active table and witness a hand straight away where some young Chinese nerd opens with A6, and gets another nerd to call him with Q10. Flop is 6 6 9. Chinese nerd bets, Q10 nerd floats. Turn is a Q. Bet, raise, re raise, jam, and somehow they manage to get in over £400 each in the pot. River Q. Ouch!
Chinese nerd goes on life tilt; opens with 23 suited, the button 3 bets with AK, small blind wakes up with KK and 4 bet jams. Chinese nerd iso-jams! AK calls! Board runs out ace high!
Another super whale joins the game late on, opens in the cut-off with 1010 to £12ish; button 3 bet jams £300+ with AK, 1010 snaps! Board runs out ace high! Wow!
Many more retarded pots go down, and chips are flying around! Meanwhile I am card dead, and am discussing Rush Poker strategy with the Bulgarian and explaining the benefits of Hold’em Manager.
Rob “The Horse” Angood rolls in from a session at The Palm Beach, £5-£10 reg obviously. Tells me about a hand he played against some dude called Nik (apparently he is a well known pro, meh...never heard of him).
He sweats me for a couple of hands, and obviously is upset about my tight range, and procedures to make fun of me! I feel no need to explain my game plan to his dumb LAGTARD ass.
If you sat in a game (s), with many hands like the above mentioned going down, would you play loose and aggressive? Sure you might attempt to run the table over, and you might run good and win a bunch of money.
But these guys just don’t fucking care, they will play with and pay you anyway. So fuck it I will sit and fold. I might not a win a bundle today, but I will get my piece of the pie over the week, with a very small volatility in my game.
No need for a balanced range, just value bet the shit out of these boys when you get the hands and all will be OK.
Anyway, I finish up around 6am, and head straight to the gym for a 45 minute intense Spin Class. Sick workout!
Last 14 days or so have gone pretty good online and live, I just need to keep putting in the volume and working on my game (obviously finding new and more creating ways of mucking my cards!).
I do a lot of lurking on the 2+2 forums, especially in the NVG forum. Came across a hilarious photo-shop thread recently, I highly recommend it for a good laugh:

Here is are some examples of the shit on there:
Here are some of my attempts (obviously I haven’t posted these on there because most wouldn't know these locals boys, but if you know these goats you might get the jokes...if not you either don’t know them or you just don’t find me funny...either way you are gay!)...
One the guy's in the first photo is a friend (well old work mate) of mine, he is a super cool guy and if he does come across this blog, I wish not to offend! Hope you don't mind me using this photo!
I got a few more but I will save them for the next post...
Bedtime!
