Fantasy (or nightmare) football

This year has seen my return to the ring of Fantasy football. It's one of many many loves, because I love to compete and it just makes me happy to beat my friends. Well I havent played in two years, which is sad. The last time I played was when LT was the man and my getting him assured me a spot in the playoffs. This year I have had more rediculous bad luck/ injuries that it is unbelievable. I mean I lost back to back weeks by a total of 3 points, and lost austin collie, pierre thomas, portis, mcfadden, nicks, and torrain to injuries. Well to make the playoffs I had to win, and two other specific people had to lose. Well going into the sunday night game the other two people had already lost, so it was up to me to seal my fate. Basically I had vincent Jackson (his first game back) + a 24 point lead and he had frank gore left. Now a little history on Gore is he hates me, and scores at will when I play against him, especially against the awful cardinals. Well I figure he is gonna score at least 24 so I need vincent jackson to get at least 6 to make it a 30 point lead to get my victory for sure. Well bend me over quick if jackson didnt get injured on the third play of the game and not return for a whopping 0 points. F me, WTF I was furious/drunk with friends at bar so not mad kinda laughing because its been that kinda year. Then I was working last night (2nd job) and updating the score on my phone, and frank gores first run was for 25 yards. WTF I was gonna lose for sure, then another update hes at 5 points after 4 minutes I thought I was done for sure. AND THEN IT ALL CHANGED, i get a text frank gore injured hip out for the game, Holla I win. Now I gotta win by a lot next week or win and a particular other person must lose to put me in the playoff with a lot of momentum. Wish me luck oh and I will play a little more plo wednesday night because I only work 1 job.

Thanksgiving weekend

Hello fellow bloggers/blog reading people. As I said in my last post I went to small town USA for thanksgiving with my girlfriends family. We played some fun games like scategories (which I dominate) and Sorry (which the little kids teamed up on me and I lost). Scategories is a fun thinking game which are my favorite, I love scrabble and games like those that make you think, it reminds me a little of poker. Anyways did that had some drinks and watch some football, good day for me. My fantasy football is beyond frustating, I will talk about them soon in a different post, yuck. Anyways I was able to play like lol 200 hands of omaha this weekend. Still playing .2-.5 because my roll and I just dont play enough to justify moving up. I was playing two tables so 200 hands was about 2 or so hours. I just can't believe how comically bad people are at that level. Almost everytime they push on me they are drawing dead or to 2 outs. It's funny, like really funny. Anyways I made some nice bluffs to make people think I got there and everytime I had a hand they would call it was a good 200 hands id say. I won 2 buy-ins so about 11 bucks which is good imo considering the stakes. Well I gotta work both jobs today so I might update tomorrow about my nightmare not fantasy football team.
Thanks bung

small town usa

Once I get off work today at four its a 2 and a half hour drive to a town of 75 people with my g/f and her family. I can only imagine what this is going to be like. I have a lot of images from wrong turn and the hills have eyes playing through my head..Yikes. So there are going to be like 12 of us, 10 of which are visiting, and this made me think about the uh sleeping arrangements. So turns out this place has a regional theatre and we will be staying in the actors dorms. I haven't stayed in a dorm too much, but im not looking too much forward to staying there. They have like horses and other wild life, which im a big fan of, but its about freaking 35 degrees and raining and will maintain this til friday. Well, im just hoping they have wireless because im bringing my laptop and i will resume my play which i havent done since like last tuesday or wednesday. Welp, Ill update soon i try to do it as often as possible.
Thanks bung

The kiss of death

Something that my friends and I noticed while being out of town over the weekend and going out everynight, and them trying to get laid was the true signs a girl is not havin it.
1. She looks at her friend when you dance behind her for approval and the friends makes a not so optimal face, or a look for yourself gesture.
2. She won't do the fish hook in the mouth when you are clearing doing the fisherman real her in dance (my buddies favorite and one of his only moves.)
3. She asks you to buy her a drink.
4. She is going in and out of different clubs on the same strip and back to the same club your in a few times.
5. When her friend looks like Clay Matthews, or when she wears a red dress the cool aid man, they get jealous because the hotter one.
6. This is the worst of them all because its the KISS OF DEATH!!!! We noted that if a girl or pack of girls (not sure what the term for group of clubbing girls is so lets go with a Flow of Hoes) is dancing and drinking with your friends all night and some of them are starting to make out and or dance more aggressively it seems like things might be moving forward for you until this happens: A. you get their numbers and say hey were going back to his place to keep partying you wanna come, or B. You get in their car to go back to your or their place and they say the following, "Hey, were gonna get some food do you want any?" You should just cut your losses and go to sleep, because the food makes them quit drinking, gassy or feeling fat. Especially taco bell, I think there's something they put in those dog food tacos that make girls like insta turned off. I saw it happen to my friends twice this weekend, ha and the one I brought down bought a 3 pack of condoms, I think its was karma for being to cocky. Well, back to work just updating like I said I would.

The weekend

I went to Springfield MO this weekend with a good friend of mine to visit friends that go to Missouri State. We went on Thursday night to go to this bar called the midnight rodeo, (or as we call it the hodeo) they have a 5 dollar cover charge than 1.50 for a bottle of beer, which is cheap. Also, they have a thong contest that pretty much ends the night. It was a really fun time because I love to watch people, especially when they are drinking and getting wild. Some of those girls are pro hoes, and they can shake things in ways I have never seen before, (I dont go to strip clubs, not my style). Also, most of my friends down there are single so it is hilarious to watch. I have a g/f of almost 5 years that I love dearly, so when I'm with all these guys I just get to watch laugh and try to help. Anyways we basically would just wake up the other two days around noon, brush teeth, eat and begin the drinking. It was a lot of binge drinking which I don't do that often anymore because it isnt smart or healthy, but sometimes I like to anyways. When I say binge I mean from about 2 p.m. til around 4 a.m. and repeat 3 days in a row until I drive 200 miles home and look like crap because i havent shaved or showered in 2 days. Its a blast but my stomach wont feel right til around thanksgiving (perfect timing). Anyways, the weekend was a blast but I couldnt play any poker because I was having too much fun with my good friends. I have a lot of funny stories from the weekend, and got to see my drunk friends dancing and trying to get girls, it was classic and reminded me how lucky I am to have a good girl to home to. Well, gotta work both jobs today and tomorrow, then wednesday im going with g/f's family to a town of 75, yes 75 people for thanksgiving. I have never been in a town with less than 5000 so this should be interesting. lol I'll bring the comp but I dont think they'll have wireless yikes, what year is this!! well if anyone reads this on accident make a comment so I can respond gimme something to write about. Thanks

Plo Update

Last night I got home from work, ran some arrands and let the poker begin. First of all if anyone that ever accidently reads this plays .02-.05 omaha and has played with I feel sleepy please leave a comment. He's this goldstar player that plays like 10 tables, and takes like 12 seconds per decision. Not like oh man he's got a big call to make here either, its like he's folding preflop, and he literally makes all his tables of 6max have like 60 hands per hour max. It's frustrating, luckily since I'm playing only two tables I try to select around him get in more hands. Anyways, last night I played for about 75 minutes or so and i play 100bbs I won about 13 bucks in 155 hands or basically 2 and a half buy-ins. Im happy and im now up 5 buyins in 3 sessions. The only hand I remember the most was something like this: I get AcAs2c10s and raise it to .17 from the button. The bb reraises to about 40 and everyone folds to me, I call. The flop comes 4c 7c Ah. He bets I reraise, and he goes all in I call. He has 7 6 5 4 and is basically drawn dead to a 8 5 6 3 not club and if a club comes or board pairs good game. Im not sure what he thinks I have on the flop but that was a risky move imo. anyways Kc comes gg double up, lol then he doubles me up on my other table and quits. It was so funny how bad he was and I obviously didnt say anything like some idiots do, I dont like to scare the fish! Anyways, it was a good night in the poker playing world, Im going on my weekend trip leaving tonight Ill probably play a few sessions at my buddies apartment between drinks.
Thanks Bung

COD Black ops

The name of this game should be cod black cocks, because it sucks them regularly. I am not a big gamer by any means, but I have always loved them a lot. My first system was a super nintendo. I got it right before church on Christmas morning when I was in 1st grade. I had never been happier. My first game was donkey kong and that was one of the greatest games IMO. I remember beating it in just a week, and that game is pretty long if anyone remembers. From there in 4th grade I got a Nintendo 64 and mario world, which is probably the one of my favorite all time games, and that system is one of the best too. I remember playing golden eye with an obsession, I would get out of school, do my homework than go to my neighbors house and all four of us would play bond until nine when I had to go home. It was the best time ever. That was fun until like 6th grade when I became obsessed with basketball (I always played soccer and baseball and was good at soccer but my dad put too much pressure on me so I hated it) and got my own hoop in 6th grade at played for 3 hours a night. I pretty much didn't play too much in terms of video games unless my buddies and I would play mario party for money after the poker game broke up. Also, I did play Diablo II quite a bit which is an awesome RPG, the only one I've really liked other than oblivion. The next system I got was xbox 360 about 3 christmas's ago. I even bought a hi-def TV for it. I loved it, but more importantly call of duty 4. I sucked at it for about 2 months because I was new to everything about xbox, but I played the hell out of it. I mean my g/f even would get mad about the amount of time I would play. I got really good, and started playing search and destroy pretty exclusively because it is more fun with an objective and stuff. Then world at war came out. YUCK, that was sold in about 3 weeks. Then MWF 2 came out and it was pretty fun. I ended up liking it a lot, but the first one had better maps and I dont like death streaks. But now this month came the arrival of Black Ops. Wow did they try to make it seems like halo with its game lobbies or what. First of all Halo the original is the only one that I liked, so I was not pleased with the new lobbies. Then I see there are freaking 4 million people playing when I am, and somehow I can only get in a game if I am without my friends or only have like 1 with me. WTF, 5 of my friends and I tried to play a game yesterday and we couldnt load one up. I WAS FURIOUS. If I could get full price I would return it right now. The only thing that is cool is the zombies, we got to level 17 last night, pretty intense BTW. Ok, sorry that was long but I just wanted to express my feelings on gaming and the new COD. I just wish IW would make them again, but it is over, and the franchise will fall apart because of Treyarch and Activision... Also, I plan on playing some plo tomorrow I only have to work one job so I'll have some free time, I had to work both jobs yesterday YUCK

I am actually going to take this seriously

Alright, it has been a while since I last updated, because I am always changing my mind. I decided like 2 days after my last post that I was done with 18 sngs. I played some 6 man stt's and actually liked them for a few weeks, and managed to make a little profit. My bankroll is currently at 229. I also have 40.40 invested in someone that will be playing in the regional tournaments that pokerstars is having. I'm hoping to double that up or at least get money back. So anyways, what I have been playing the last couple days is plo. I have played this before with a little success, then in one session I would make a stupid ass play and tilt on my other tables. It is beyond frustrating. Right now I am playing .5 and only 2 tables stacked. I have liked this and am learning a lot. I am playing much tighter than before and folding my pocket aces if the flop is crap for me. I have had only 2 sessions and am up 2 buyins. It is fun learning this new game as well as the people playing it are pretty bad. I have only been all in 3 times and 2 of them the other person was drawing dead lol. I plan on playing the 6-man sngs some days when i have T$ from the fpp satellites. Anyways I am going to update on thursday, then I'm going out of town to visit friends/drink and see a comedy show. I will update probably close to every other day if anyone wants to read. thx
