Poker & Punkrock - The hard life of a Tour driver...

I love punk rock! Yea sometimes one needs to travel... to achieve, to experience...

Where are you from? I guess Finnland ♦
This is my band

Today played on GG poker, where I started from 0 $ with daily freebie and after reached 20 $ started to play NL2 or PLO2.
I played 461 hand on 4 table R&C and this hand came.

From Thursday I'm on tour with my band in Germany 10 days 10 gigs. So maybe I don't write on this days but after the tour will do some.

The USD worth less day by day, so my bankroll just lost every day, because If I will withdrawal then I need is €.

Sweet hand!

I assume such a tour would be exhausting, but enjoy yourself anyway!

Hey, I built a BR from freerolls, too: on Partypoker and 888, and also play NL2 and PLO2 and guess what: Én is Magyar vagyok, de Németországban élek (I´m a Hungarian too, but live in Germany)

This is great music! Brings back memories, I once listened to punk rock a lot when 17-18 years old, it has a certain romantic vibe in a good way that I like, breaking out theme etc.

TALLINN. I'm from Tallinn. It is a port for ships next to Finland. I wasn't from there originally, I was born in Tartu, but I moved there recently. Now it's all EU so it doesn't matter the country, only Sweden is still not €, they should if they want to continue. ♦

We have been played in Tallin Ülase 12 this year 9th of may. Was a great gig with full house, we played with a legenday Millions of Dead Cops from USA.

Today played 302 hand PLO2 R&C, folded some top set and straight, but not folded this hand of course.

When I saw that hand, my first thought was — what a create PLO Hi/Lo hand.
Then I realized GG doesn't have that variant.
I sure wish that they did, not that 888 doesn't have it at all — except for one tournament each morning.

Oh I know where it is. My girlfriend ran artist space room near it

I'm back from the Tour. All the moments was great, we had some very nice gig and we had a little profit too. I meet with some old friends since 25-30 years. The biggest show was in Jena ca 80-90 people came and was hard dance until the end of the gig. There we slept in a train wagon which was funny but comfy.
Tomorrow I go to Bratislava for play some live Tournament. I have some separated money (for my hobby) from my TIP which I use for live poker, this not hurt my bankroll. First I will try 200 € buy in NLHE and if not works then 120 € PLO and Saturday game depend what happen Friday.

I had just time to play the daily freebie and last days some PLO2.
Here is some hand.

I'm lucky because he plays with this bad hand

Sometimes it's hard to get them to call even small bets though.

Nice hand

Yesterday played 200 € Royal Main event day1 250000 € GTD. The tournament started 13:00, finally 144 player and 15 ITM. It was good to play 30 min blinds 100k chips.
First couple of limit noting happened just little bit up and down again and again. One key hand was winning pre-flop all in with AKo vs 99 (he limped and after I jamed he called) .
Not longer late I got AJs for a limper I was all in again he called with A4o and won again.
Around 10th level one maniac goes all-in with TJs I had TT and pushed all-in and other very loosie player said "time for gambling" and called with Q2s. We got 9 high board and won 500k pot.
After slowly lost some chips pre flop raised, nothing on the flop and other players was active I fold. I lost my AA vs T7s he got a flush on the river. But later I won against him with J7s he had KK so just got back some chips from him. Couple of hands later I had AKs and raised he jams with 55 but flop was AKT and holdid my hand.
Sadly changed the table and there got lot of bad hand, but before bubble I got AA and QQ and won some blinds. At the end I'm ITM with 355000 chips and Sunday 17:00 will start the day 2. now 11 players has less chips then me, so hope make some more money.
Today planed 150 € buy-in 50k € GTD.

After I played some cash game. There was a drunk guy who played mostly everything pre-flop. I lost 600 € pot with AA vs his 82o, he got full house. Little bit later I got AA again and he paid me with out and after twice tried bluffed me out. At the end I made 30€ plusz and drive to home and goes to sleep 3:00.

GG roll: 133,21 $
PS roll: 486 $

LIVE ROLL: 2500 € / 2918 $

Now arrived to home from 150€ buy-in, a bit tired. 10 hours tournament played sadly lost with A8o vs KJs in blind vs blind flop Kxx. 245 players paid finished 17th place and 500 € cashout. I played well some little mistake, but ok. 2 tournament both ITM, today 17:00 start the 200 € 250k GTD hope finish not to early with my 17 bb.

yoo :f_drink:!!

congrats on the ITM and may the poker gods be with you tonight at the tables!! LFG!

i admire everyone who has the strength to sit long hours in a chair waiting for a usable hand. how many hands you got dealt live in a hour, like 10-20??
i could not do it so boring. but of course binking an MTT is freaking lucrative and gives big joy.

have a nice weekend ( orwhatever left of it) and GL!!

Yesterday started relative good, first won against other sort stack player with AKo vs AQo. Some hand later the chip leader raised in utg and I jamed with TT 20bb but he fold. Same player raised again and I goes all-in with AKo and now he called with 44 I made flush on the river and doubled up to 980000 chip. Sadly next hour I got very bad cards and after 30 min break first hand with AKo made 3bet vs TT he called and after 8 high board finished the tournament.
Final result was 68th place from 1090 entries paid 670 €
All the weekend I loved, maybe 2 weeks later I play 170 € tournament 250k GTD.

September is over. I closed with some profit even online and offline, so I'm very satisfied with that results. Online very helpful for GG the daily freebie I won 13,36 $.

COIN GG PS Sum live
364,60 110,40 486,00 961,00 $ 2470 € Sept 1
388,88 138,55 486,00 1013,43 $ 3320 € Sept 30

The USD are just still very bad, but I don't need to withdrawal my money wait until maybe getting better (not believe because of Trump)

The next months maybe I can have more time to play poker, next weekend I will be play again in Bratislava 170 € MTT.

After the table select method changed on Poker Stars I did not played I don't know what I do there. Maybe play some tournament session, maybe ZOOM. I built my bankroll there from 2,2 $. They lost lot of players, PLO Zoom plays 30-50 players in PLO2 and PLO25 rest is empty. 180-220 Player on NL10 120-150 on NL25, 50-70 on NL50 which is without table selecting weird. Maybe this amount of players only afternoon, but I can't play later then midnight.

On GG I play PLO2 or NL5 and will see what happen and maybe some MTT session.

Coin now play NL10 but the HUD not works well, sometimes the HUD show other players name who not at the table or not a correct place. I use for that DriveHUD2. There is on evening 10-20 table and even there is 35% rakeback. I will try it how works.

Of course I love more to play offline, but have not enough bankroll for 1/2 € cash game and even I have not much time like 15 years ago.

Today I played a bit cash game and even one tournament.

In PLO2 play some very friendly player, who don't think too much, just play.
