Ok, granted I played that last hand pretty badly, I hate it when you have an opponent down to his last chip, and then he doubles up on you a bunch of times in a row. Luckily, I ended up winning, but it always drives me up the wall.

Sorry about the unformatted hand histories though. I couldn't find a good hand converter for razz / stud games.

Halloween!!

I wonder how many girls are going to dress up as Sarah Palin this year? Apparently, Larry Flynt of Hustler is making a porno with a Palin look-a-like called Nailin' Pailin. Should make for some good entertainment.

I do have to admit, this was one of the best costumes I've seen in awhile :)

Yay for pedobear!!

Oh, and did anyone watch the Rockets play? They're gonna be good this year, depending on if Ron Artest doesn't have a mental breakdown and Yao and McGrady stay healthy...

About me

So I just recently graduated from college, and am now starting off my oh so exciting career at an accounting firm (that was sarcasm for those of you who couldn't pick it up). I live in NYC and love it up here, though rent can be a real bitch.

I've been playing online poker since I turned 18 (I can't believe I actually waited till my birthday to sign up). I started off on Party Poker, where I lost my initial deposit of 500 bucks in a few weeks or so. My parents weren't too happy about that and immediately berated me. What did I go do? I got up at 3 in the morning every day after to play in my dad's office so I could make it back.

When I went off to college, I went broke a few more times, and swore I would never play again. Haha, any poker player who tells you that is lying. I eventually learned some bankroll management, and have been doing ok since.

I played on Pokerstars for awhile (their new black layout is horrendous by the way), but eventually found Full Tilt, which easily became my favorite site because of their HORSE games. I haven't had a chance to play on many of the other sites, but I really like the blind structure of heads up (HU) HORSE games on FT. Blinds go up every 6 minutes, at which point the game also changes. On Stars, the blinds go up too slowly (10 minutes), and for some reason, I would rather play an opponent vertically than horizontally??

Now all I do is go to work everyday and hope to get my CPA in the next two years. I don't have as much time to play online as I did in college, but once a poker player, always a poker player.

Finally Started a Blog

I was looking online the other day for HORSE poker blogs, and so far, I only found one other site. I would like to talk strategy with others, but also just share my thoughts about HORSE, poker, and life.

I play HORSE on Full Tilt and all I play are heads up matches from $50 and up. But ever since I started work, I haven't had much time anymore. I also don't have any clue how to end this post, since this is my first ever blog post. I'm worried I'll sound too lame/stupid but then realized its my blog and I can say whatever the f*$k I want. Sweet.
