[30] Day 104 - 108

Submitted by: snoopy on Mon, 24/04/2006 - 5:29pm

Days 104 and 105 - Riot police are facing off against a miffed-up bunch of anarchists. The young punks are hurling all kinds of abuse at the Rozzers in an attempt to give 'em a case of the willys. The Fuzz are trained to just stare at the unruly mob and not say a single word, under any circumstances. Sometimes, there can be nothing more intimidating than silence. More often than not, it's the rioters, and not the police, who end up getting spooked.

People have a go at me quite a lot in the safety of the ol' pokerroom chatty box, and most of it I miss. That's probably for the best, I've never been one to keep my mouth shut at the best of times. Saying absolutely nothing probably gets their goat more than anything else.

Looking through some hand historys, I noticed that one chappy announced "I'll call you next time out of spite moron" after I raised his blind for the 3rd consecutive time, just off the money.
He must not have been best pleased when I raised it the next 3 rounds aswell.  Cool
He folded all 3 times (good), had I typed some lame retort such as "Oooooh, I've wet me keks big boy"  then I'm guessing he probably would have called (not so good).

I played 60ish each day, so on track for the final fortnight.

Silo asked if I was still enjoying it. I think I definately am.
Not so much because of the winning, but because I've always derived a certain job satisfaction from doing something well. (Or at least believing I'm doing it well)
Also, I get a kind of perverse kick from frustrating my opponents when I bubble-bully them (on the odd occasions when I've muffed my way into a chip lead)
That'll never leave me, I must have a raising fetish.

Days 104 and 105 Results : +$876 (+$15,847 total)
ROI : 8.2% (after 3,186 tournaments)
RDR : 62.6 (13 overs remaining)

Two whole days off now, FANK THUCK.
I'm going away up North to see the family at Easter.

Wishing y'all a good weekend whatever it is you're doing.

Days 106, 107 and 108 - Back to the salt mines after a weekend off. I reminded myself what alcohol tastes like, and what aspirin is for.

Harder to get right back into the swing of things I must admit. A late start on Day 108 (4am) meant I only managed 48 tournaments before noon. I won't have to worry though, that's the last time I'll need to adjust the sleeping pattern, no more days off till the end.

I have something special planned for this weekend....

24 hour turbo marathon anyone? 3am on Saturday till 3am on Sunday. During this time I intend to completely massacre the RDR by playing a daft volume of tournaments.
It'll be so close to the end by then that I think some adrenaline will help me pull off that kind of pisch.

Prior to that day, Pokerstars support will be getting an e-mail informing them that I am not a bot, just a nutter.

Days 106, 107 and 108 Results : +$487 (+$16,333 total)
ROI : 8.4% (after 3,234 tourna-minis)
RDR : 63.8 (12 cheeky bad-boy rude-boy days lefteroonie)

Been a while since the red pen came oot. Makes for a duller, less topsy turvy ride but I don't care.

If dull is consistent +$ then dull is good.  Cool
