vonki - The return of the Queen

Good to hear that the trip went well! But I didn't really get, you got 4th place or what. And I guess you were drinking a lot of cheap vodka here?

no, somewhere in the forthy but i dont know if it was 47 or 43 or whatever so I just wrote 4xth place

We did drink alot of cheap stuff but it was mostly white russians... Grindithard was ordering whole bricks of drinks at the time, so we got rly rly drunk...

Oh and funny part i forgot to mention also; I ran into kevvu and Marek (from munich BMP partycrew) pretty small world we live in after all

gonna go watch cartoons now with my sister (aka sleep)... ♦

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone!

xx

I like the look of Xmas at your house.

Books.

Big tree.

Food hampers.

Wood panelling.

Garden gnomes.

No children.

Can we swap?

Have a good one.

Hi vonki, is it possible that we just played at the same NL10SH table at Full tilt? Or was it a different vonki?

That's her name at FTP although there is usually a reason why shes on that limit

Very correct I haven't played for 1,5 weeks or smt and I'm still ill so I wanted to warm up on a easy limit more or less for fun

I tend to stick to low limits on days when I'm not feeling on top ♦

I just hate those days when you're not ill enough to sleep all day, yet not well enough to do something productive...

How many hands this month?

Uuuhw I am now on 17,9k (with my NL10 hands included, because NOTHING said I couldnt play NL10 in the rules! :f_biggrin:).

But I also have alot of free time until I'm leaving for bahamas so I think I might actually make the challange

and u?

No way I'm gonna make 100k. Biggest month since playing but not 100k

118773 atm

3.682 hands today, 19.565 hands total

5.5k left to go, looking good so far.

also didnt check my results for the whole 20k hands, go me! ♦

dont think ill check until end of the month, dont see a reason to check before that.

nn

wowww thats great, on wich room/sat did u win the PCA package?
gl with it

hey there!

I won it on pokerstars, I think they're even the only ones who have satelites for pca? It's getting closer now, I'm looking sooo much forward to it

New day with new oppertunitys. Gonna try to get in alot of hands today and take care of some chores etc

Let'seeee gooo!

Happy Xmas vonki :*

thank you dear! :-*

So... another 2.9k hands today, which means I'm almost done with the challenge. I don't know but for some reason I'm turning into some kind of grinding machine... once I start I just don't want to quit.

I am however worried about some bad calls I made today, but I'm guessing it has to do with me and mrs variance both having "the" time of the month. ♦

I was talking to one of my friends on skype whilst playing the last hour or so, and he told me "you should probably just quit then". But I mean cmon, if I wanna quit every time I start making some bad calls (its not like I went on monkeyspew, just made a few bad ones every now and then even tho I knew I probably shouldnt) then how can I ever turn into a real pro?

If the solution is to quit when you're not able to play A mode then... imo I am doomed. I believe that the only way to change it is to actually keep playing, and eventually find a way for myself to stop making the bad calls. It has to be possible, one way or another. In time... So what if I play breakeven due to making some bad calls, its still +EV in the long run because I A) gain more experience since I play more hands, esp in the long run this counts alot and B) I get to practise how to find a solution to the problem.

I am to be honest even surprised I could play this well during "that" time of the month since I am usually just better off locking myself inside.. I end up hating the world with a very selfdestructive mindset during those days... I hate it. And I honestly do think I am making progress.

Argh, yea, I have played to long without a break and I'm just ranting... Maybe I am better off to bed and wake up to a new day tomorrow

tl;dr version: played alot, made bad calls, making progress, yada yada yada

Total hands this month: 22.425

just a random thought but have you tried going on the contraceptive pill. my missus has horrible times of the month when shes not on the pill but she barely notices it when shes on it keeps the house a much safer place to live in just a thought anyway.

Also congrats on ur PCA package and GL when u get there

haha, thanks! ♦ And yes, I have tried it and am actually taking it. However, I still get affected, it takes quite some months before the body gets completely adjusted to it. I get less affected now then before, but yet not completely unaffected.

So maybe, in fact I didn't make that much progess? That would suck. BUT, I still think I'm making progress. Will try to keep that up though...

I think today is a better day ♦ Time will tell. So far so good

Just booked my 3 extra nights at an all inclusive hotel in Bahamas, I'm getting soooo excitedddd! Gonna have to remember to take lots of pictures, esp for you Ash05!!

I've also swapped 10% with 2 other PS-girls who are playing, should lower the variance somewhat At least if one of them make it far, I get a small payout too!

2011 will be my year, I can feel it... Oh, and maybe I should make a 2010 summary, or goals for 2011 perhaps? What do you guys think, and what do you guys wanna read?

Cuddles!

Both. It's that easy

Agree, make both
