bodog is having a poker tournament series (Bodog Poker Open V). I played in today’s $25+ 2.5 buy-in which had a $5k guarantee (which it didn’t quite meet) and was lucky enough to get 3rd for $645. Such a swingy tournament, in the first 15 minutes of the tournament, I was all-in for my life w/ AJ versus Aces. I rivered a flush to stay alive, donkkkk. It’s so disgusting how much luck there is in tournaments. But anyway, I was chipleader w/ 8 left in the tourney, but lost a few pots and was the short stack 3-handed.
I eventually lost w/ AJ when the big blind had AK.
The other 2 players had very limited sng experience (at least on bodog). I am pretty confident that I would have had a decent edge on both of them if we got to heads-up play. But, it wasn’t meant to be and I was very very very lucky to get 3rd. 2nd paid $1,050 and 1st paid $2k. Binking the tourney would have been pretty sweet, but blah.
thinking about making an exercise bet. I'm thinking I have to work out 4 days a week (basketball counts as a day) for the next month. for every day i fall short, i have to do something/donate $/or pay someone. Or I could so something like, if i fail to do X, I have to draft Spencer Hawes in the 3rd round of every fantasy basketball league that I am in this year.

Mark Sanchez ftw
It’s official, I am the biggest nerd ever. I purchased sports cards for the first time in probably 6 or 7 years. I subscribe to bmwdroptp7, a card collecting Asian youtuber from Philly. He made some mystery packs that included some big hits including autos of Lebron, Peyton, and Magic Johnson. Each pack was $50, or 2 for $95. I couldn’t resist, so I bought one, and this is what I got. I’ve watched the video probably 10 times, I just think it’s weird/hilarious when he says my name. And no, I wasn’t in the blog tv room? Or whatever it’s called. Start at 1:30.
It wasn’t one of the biggest hits, but at least I’ll get my money back if I decide to sell the Sanchez auto.

the dog days are over...
“@ the pawn stars, its better to sell at 20% because it is more efficient for their time. they dont want a bunch of 2 dollar profits when they can have a few 5 dollar ones and make almost the same money for way less than half the time and effort.
btw, you got a car AND moved out?”
I guess I didn’t really talk about the car or moving out. Well, my Jimmy had been slowly dying for the past 6 months. I went to the mechanic and they said that my transmission needed to be replaced and that it wasn’t worth fixing. Therefore, the car search started. My only requirement for a car was that it had to have good gas mileage. So, I had been looking for a week or two and my Dad told me that I had to buy a car soon because he was going to be busy because the tomato harvest was going to start soon. So, one day, my dad came home from lunch and said let’s go to Tracy Honda to test drive some cars. So, I reluctantly said yes, but I clearly told my dad “I am just looking at cars today, but I’m not going to buy a car.” He said ok, blah blah blah.
So long story short, we test drive a nice 07 Accord, and when the sales lady stepped out of the car, my dad turns to me and says “ok, so you’ll buy this car, and we’ll try and get $1,000 for your Jimmy” I was like wtf Clark! I told him I didn’t want to buy a car today, but damn, my dad has the worst A.D.D. ever. He pretty much talked me into it and 5 hours later, no more Jimmy. (I miss Jimmy a lot, I kind of just want to know where he ends up, oh well) Everyone says that they can’t picture me without Jimmy. But anyway, I thought I would be happy with a new car, but I didn’t feel very good for the next week. I kept checking my online bank statements, just in case there was a mistake and the cashier’s check didn’t get accepted for some reason, and maybe I had just “stolen” the car. But, no such luck, I felt poor. But a month later, I’m loving the car.
So when they appraised poor Jimmy, they came back and told me that if I wanted to trade him in, I would have to pay Tracy Honda $25. They explained that they could sell the car for $1500 but needed $1525 worth of repairs. So I told her there was about $40 worth of gas in there, she didn’t find that very funny. But anyway, we ended up getting $300 for him, or maybe $350, I forgot already.
And yes, I moved/got kicked out of my parent’s house. I’m living at my grandma’s house and so far, so good. I have internet and cable and 3 rooms to myself. So far, the internet has not let me down, I’m crossing my fingers that it doesn’t go down when I’m playing poker. However, the house is extremely old and the middle of nowhere, with no neighbors. At night, the house makes some occasional weird/creepy noises. If someone wanted to, they can scare the living shit out of me. If it’s late, and someone just knocks on my door, I’m calling 911 immediately, without hesitation. Thinking about it now, I don’t even know the address to this place.
And for the pawn stars question, I think we can debate this all day. I agree with you that they would rather have a few $5 profits than a lot of $2 profits because of efficiency. However, the one piece of information is how many items are being bought/sold. I mean, for this little competition, they didn’t mention anything besides profit margin. Therefore, if I sat at work all day and purchased 3 items in a week, and my profit margin was 40%, my co-worker that has a lower profit margin but more volume, would be more valuable to the company that I was. My only point is that it’s not ALL about profit margin.

^This hand makes me wonder what some people are thinking when they are playing poker. I understand his turn bet was a bluff, but when I raise, why on earth would you call? But anyway, this is a good example about how to explain expectation. When all the chips go in, I have 90.9% equity to my opponent’s 9.1% equity. In this case, I won the hand, and you may say “yea, of course you won, no big deal, you were supposed to win that pot” However, by winning this pot, I am running ABOVE EXPECTATION. Of the $60 pot, my opponent was supposed to be awarded 9.1% of 60 dollars. I feel that lots of people do not understand expectation, when you win 3 of these in a row, you are running above expectation, and you basically owe some “expectation” back to your opponents. Hmm, I wonder if this made sense, or if everyone knows this already.

^Easy game lol, I kind of felt bad for this guy, he had been playing solid for about 15 minutes, then he decides to do this, and I have Ace Ace. Last night, I think I played some of the worst players I’ve ever played before. I’m pretty sure it was the most I’ve ever won online, excluding multi-table tournaments. Unfortunately, I know that the downswing is inevitable.
something else pretty Big happened in my life, which i do not wish to put in here. i'm sure most people know, but it's been hard to tell everyone. so just ask me if you don't know.

^Easy game lol, I kind of felt bad for this guy, he had been playing solid for about 15 minutes, then he decides to do this, and I have Ace Ace. Last night, I think I played some of the worst players I’ve ever played before. I’m pretty sure it was the most I’ve ever won online, excluding multi-table tournaments. Unfortunately, I know that the downswing is inevitable.
something else pretty Big happened in my life, which i do not wish to put in here. i'm sure most people know, but it's been hard to tell everyone. so just ask me if you don't know.

sam the man!
Was watching a re-run of pawn stars today and it was the one where the Dad and Son had a competition, whoever had the highest profit margin for the month won a prize. The Dad ended up winning, but this is all wrong, at least in my opinion. Although profit margin is important, it doesn’t maximize profits. Let’s say you buy/sell 20 items in their business at a profit margin at 20%. That is NOT more profitable than say buy/sell 50 items at a profit margin of 15%. I don’t know, but in my opinion, they are looking at things all wrong.
I already have a new crack in my damn car windshield, oh well. I’m loving the gas mileage, it feels weird not to worry about getting gas after 150 miles or so. And by the way, my car’s name is Paige. It’s my FTP name in case people don’t know. paige16 to be exact.
Bose headphones are the shit. Corinne got them for me at Best Buy, and they are amazing. I only wish I had bought them earlier in life. They make music sound amazing, and have made me want to buy more music. I would wear them EVERYWHERE if I could. I took them grocery shopping the other day. Yes, I have to go grocery shopping again now that I moved out of my parent’s house.
There is a link to a new set of basketball set to release in October, AND IT BEGINS. I am SO ready to buy every damn Jeremy Lin basketball card that I possibly can.

i feel like this is a very common trend w/ bad players, they make a big 3bet preflop with ak or aq, and bet out big on flop. i was planning to shove any flop without and ace king or queen, fortunately, he got there.
