Miserable Week

Well the last week was kind of shitty but I am still feeling real good about where things are headed. Early Tuesday morning I woke up and my allergies were kicking in bigtime . 100 percent was Boris and this wasn't the first time. When I purchased him the lady told me that you are not 100 percent guaranteed to be free from their allergens etc but they are breeded to have less allergens. After doing some research that is the case. Over the past few weeks to a month I have tried all kinds of things to help the allergies. I vaccum rugs daily, I leave the windows open, I use air purifiers, I took him for shampoo baths and deep brushings while all of that helped it just wasn't enough. So I decided the best thing to do is give him to my niece. Ever since I got him she hasd been telling my sister how much she wants a kitten and I know she will take care of him. I am planning on getting some shot for allergies but they say that takes like 2 years to kick in . It is amazing cause up until I was 21 I lived with 5 different cats and I never had a problem till now. I packed all his shit and drove him over there and it was a very sad day as he cried the whole way like he knew what was up. As I was packing his shit in my car he sat at the window and kept pawing at it cause all his toys etc were out there. It's not that big of a deal cause I can see him anytime as my sister lives like 20 mins from here. Another good thing is they have a cat who is a 1 yr old and he now has a friend to play with. It was pretty funny watching him get to know this cat cause this cat is big and passive and he kept attacking her on her turf. Now they just run around and play . Too bad hshes fixed cause he would be pounding that shit. here are a few Boris Pics with the cat and in his halloween costumes my niece put him in.










Today I woke up and planned on going to pick up some random gadgets I needed at the store , then work out then go see what boris was up to. I got in a great workout at the gym and am feeling great. I have kicked my training into overdrive and am starting to get some good results. I have been getting in at least 45 mins of cardio 5 days a week and sometimes more if I am feeling good. Over the past week I have kicked up the training with the weights. I have been doing light weights for large amounts of reps and it is working pretty good so far. I have myself on a pretty strict diet and I gradually have cut myself down to where I am eating plenty but I am eating the right stuff and it is working good.

I also quit the cigarettes once again. It was tougher this time around but I got it done . The first time was actually easy and this time was much harder. It took me a couple of weeks to really stick to the nicotine gum but it worked out. The key with the nicotine gum is when you wake up in the morning the first thing you need to do when you roll out of bed is snap a piece of that shit in your mouth then continue 1 piece an hour for the day. Staying active helps a bit too cause tyour not always sitting around thinking about smoking or not smoking. After like 3 days with this gum you dont even think about butts and when you do you think how bad the suck cause you feel 100 times better when not smoking. I would say another 2 weeks max and I won't need the gum anymore I will be back on bubblemint orbit. But I have to give myself a little credit cause I did quit for 7 months after smoking a pack a day for 16 years. I have been alcohol free since september 1st too. I don't know how the fuck I have pulled that off but I did.

So after my workout I hop in my ride and I see I have missed like 3 calls and have a few texts. Turns out someone I am very close to has been riushed to the hospital. So I skipped the Boris trip and headed to the E.R. Turns out this person had shortness of breath and the doc thinks it was the tail end of Pnemonia and they should be released after some treatment in the A.M. Now while I am sitting in the E.R. with them 2 things happen. One guy gets wheeled in and I hear them tell him that he fell down and banged his head. They ask him what year it is and he says 1947!!!!!! WTF!!! Then they ask him who is president and he answers JFK!!! I'm like wtf I took a walk to make a call and peaked in and this guys head was gushing everywhere. It looked like Jason Voorhees hit him with a fucking Machedi. then I get back inside and they wheel some dude in who looks like Jim Croche and turns out this guy drand like a liter of vodka and swallowed like 10 or 15 Klaunopins. Then after like an hr they release the guy LOL. Fucking weird . That wasn't it. this emergency room went from being dead as a doornail to being lit up like the sky on the 4th of July in the blink of an eye. person after person was wheeled in. I stayed for a bit but I had to of there cause their were tons of people with flu and h1n1 and I heard the nurse say that a ton of people were checked in there today with that shit.

Poker has been going ok. I had a couple weeks where I won a tiny bit or broke even but last week saw a little increase on the graph as I picked off about another 600 or so. I was just playing 2-4 and 3-6. The 2-4 tables are a fucking joke. It is amazing. You sit down and donk after donk just pop in to drop off 40 or 50 bones. Tonight though hasnt been going so well. the first guy I played turned out to be decent and he never missed for about 30 hands in a row so I couldnt even really get a grasp on his play cause he hit every hand. The next guy I played totally sucked . He would put in 4 bets on a flop that is dblesuited with just 1 overcard. I had him drawing very thin most of the time but he always got there. It was sickening . I havent played much tonight but here is what my showdowns look like Pots won at showdown - 18 of 55 (32%). Somehow I have managed to dump about 500 playing mostly 3-6. Not a big deal cause all I need is a string of fish to sit in and run average and I will be rolling again. I see PTR has Omaha tracking now. I am not very experienced in HU omaha but I get the gist of it. I might take a couple shots at those games and see what happens but for now I am just gonna grind the limit HU till I build the roll back a bit.

Sportsgambling this week was a wild ride to say the least. Saturday did not go well as far as my game picks went but I sniffed out a few beautifull 2nd half lines and at the end of the day I only lost about 5 or 6 hundi. Sunday was a strange day as well. I had an average 1 oclock with my original games but I murdered the halftimes. At 4 I had a decent sized action bet on Zona and was getting slaughtered. I also played SD -6 second hf very large vs Oakland and they failed to get the cover. I fell asleep and never checked my Online balance but when I woke up around midnight and clicked refresh I only dropped about 9 hundi for the day which isnt bad considering the way 4 oclock went. Just kind of an up and down weekend and never really got ahead put I never really put myself in too much danger cause most of my plays were very small and I didn't really like the card. This weekend I am loving Houston vs. Tulsa. Tulsa seems to me they are in absolute shambles right now and I dont think they can trade points with Houston. Line opened at Hous -3 and is now Hous -1.5. I have no idea what the market sees in Tulsa but I have followed them very closely this year and it really seems they are in a tailspin.

Also next monday starts the College Hoops season. This is like a christmas of sorts for sportsbettors till conference play starts in early January. The totals on these games are so weak that good handicappers that have models to predict these totals can beat these things at like a 75 percent clip for 2 months months. I tested out one service last year and the guy was the real deal . I just got on the train too late. This year is different. For the first time I am not going to play my own stuff. I might play a celtics game(best team in the NBA bar none) here and there but 99 percent of what I am going to play will be fed to me at a cost that is reasonable. I will be paying about 1500 for these picks but after checking these guys track records I should net no less than 20 units and as much as 50 units before January. I am hoping it goes that well cause I plan on spraying 2 local books pretty large with these plays and one online book small . By the time these guys figure out their is virtually no way I am going to lose it will be too late. I am still going to play my college and pro stuff for football but very small. That's about all I have for now. Back to the grind

China Out

From The Outhouse To The Penthouse

So last I left off I crushed stars 3-6 HU for about 1200 in 2 or 3 hrs. I went out for a bit and got some sleep and woke up about 6 A.M. Tuesday. I worked out for about an hour at home then headed down to the beach and ran a couple quick miles.

I felt great when I got back home and I played a long session that day. I thought I played pretty good but I just ran pretty bad accept for 1 match that I tilted a bit. I swear for the past 14 days every time I flop top pair or flop a flush or straight these motherfuckers are calling with like the worst possible hands and they are getting there. I'm not complaining just a little frustrated. For instance I will raise with like an Ace Queen. They will call . Flop will come like ace j 3. They check I bet. Turn 7 River 7 and they will turn over like 7 4 off. How can anyone in their right mind call that flop with that shit unless they are trying to steal a pot from me. And even for that to happen I have to have air . I'm not gonna complain cause I am glad these guys are calling with this garbage cause I will get them when teverything evens out in the long run. Also shows me I am playing the right type of opponents.

So pretty much from tuesday to friday on stars I was up and down like a yo yo and I think I wound up about even for the week there. 2 guys I played were new accounts and had very little data but I played them anyways and it turned out they were pretty good and took me for a ride. I kept saying your run is coming but it seemed and everytime I got checkraised I had air or 2nd best hand barely or they would just hit their draws on me. I wound up quitting both of these guys too late and it cost me about 700 that I could have preserve. mix that in with about 4 or 5 donks that ran like god and 8 or so hit n runs from assorted other donks and I was pretty lucky to be even at the end of the week.



So I said I was done sportsbetting last monday LOL. Wednsday rolled around and I was a little frustrated from how I was running in poker so like a true degenerate I popped in a play on the over in the tulsa game. Bang lost that for like 4 hundi. Thursday rolls around and I called my book just to see what he had for a line on the NC / Florida State game cause sometimes this guy is way off cause he will get a line at 5 pm and he won't update it through the night. At the time I called him NC was -1 and the total was like 47 or 48 everywhere. Well this guy gave me NC -3.5 and a total of 51 or something like that. So I took FSU and Under and NC was just destroying them early and it looked decent for the under till early in the third when nc scored then Fsu answered right back. i said to myself this is fucking sick . How can you run so fucking bad ? Well as I said that I didn't realize there was about to be a huge momentum swing and it all started with FSU. They came back and won the game and I split for the night.

Friday rolls around and I decided to not play stars and move my action over to an obscure cake skin for a change of pace. My name over there is SFODEAL and the first table I sit at the guy I'm playing says wait a sec? Who's this ? Turned out it was Epistate LOL. We agree to play 2 buttons and I think we chopped 1 pot and he got me in the other. So I move over to a 4-8 table and some stiff sat down and I was up on the guy like 100 bets in an hour but wound up quitting up about 650 cause I had to go out. Cake poker really is a gold mine. Alot of people don't realize this but the place is stockpiled with all kinds of idiots and sportsbettors that suck at poker.

I get back in at about 7 oclock after running some errands and I had about 700 in a sportsbook account after cashing out about 1k the day before. I took rutgers and they rolled so I picked up anonther few hundi. Now I can really feel the momentum swinging. Saturday rolls around and to make a long story short I went 15-6 with my local guy and went from owing him like 700 to him owing me 1700 before the day ended. Online I went 9-2 on action bets and went 8-8 on my halftimes and all of a sudden I ran that original 700 up to about 3k. BANG that's what i'm talking about. I could have made a hell of a lot more in the evening but I decided to stay conservative cause I wanted to make sure I had a decent amount to start Sunday.

This morning rolls around and I planted in 4 action point plays. I took Indy and the Pats Very large. Also put plays on GB and SD. They won large also. I ran my sportsbook account from 3k to 6k at 1 oclock and went 4-0 with my local and banged him for another thousand. I wound up chopping 2 plays at 4 oclock and that was that. Also I was waiting for someone to post a play on a forum this morning cause the guy has really good info and he probably has hit somewhere between 65 and 80 percent the past year . Well before you know it it was like 12:15 or so and I was heading over to my brothers to watch the pats with my family and I was visiting my new baby nephew. I let 2 guys know if the guy posted to text me. Well I get the text and I have my mother in the car now and the text said Cleveland. I debated on pulling over and calling my local and reversing GB for Cleveland but I would have felt like a scumbag doing that with my mom in the car so I said Fuck it and just let it ride and whaddaya know the Pack steamroll em 31-3. Good thing I wasn't at my comp when he posted or it would have costed me. When you run good you run good. So all in all I think I made like 7 or 8 k for the weekend . I'll take it . Had I had a little bigger roll I would have ran that shit over 20k NP but 7k aint bad. I passed on tonights game and probably will tomorrow as well. Just gonna grind till Thursday and play semi conservative with the sports unless there is something really really attractive like the 2 big ones today or Boise last night. if I see something like that then I am going to fire some bullets. Other than that I am taking the conservative route for a few weeks till NCAA hoops start. For Ncaa I plan on using a service that "should" net me at least 30 units for the season and for the price compared to what should be returned it should be a steal IMO. Hope you all run as well as I have the past 3 days . 4-1 in Fantasy didn't hurt either

China Out

Down In The Dumps

Well certainly the weekend didnt go how I anticipated. I hit a few games during the week and had a mini cushion going into Saturday. I should have been up a lil more but a couple teams I bet during the week really missed a few plays that would have had me steamrolling but that's besides the point. Saturday rolls around and as usual I was on an awkward sleeping pattern. I slept like 2 hrs and got up at 11:20 for the noon games and fired in my plays.

I had my largest play for a flat bet of the season on Texas. What a fun game to watch but nerve racking(another reason I had betting flat plays). The line on this game was 3 but last sun I bought it to 2.5 online and eeked out a w. problem was my online funds were low and I got a bunch more at 3 and pushed. As a matter of fact my local won't let me buy 1/2 points and it cost me on 3 games saturday. then I had a 1/2 point loss in a college game and I had 2 over s at about over 48 48 for the toal and both of these games hit like 35 -40 about 2 mins into the 3rd q then there were no points scored. All in all after all this bullshit went down I only lost like 300 for the day and I was content with that.

Then Sunday rolls around and man what a bath I took. Things started out looking real good. i had action bets on GB (12 pt cover) Pitt (-1 pt) Jax lost me about 7 pts. Then I had minne -2.5 and they blow a big lead and win by 2. After the 1's were over I had a lil action on the Jets and somehow they lose to the Bills LOL. Then I had some big money on Philly action pts, straight and over Philly team point total and I had some action on the pats. Well Philly lost to Oakland outright. What a fucking joke. How do you only put up 9 pts vs the raiders? Fucking sick. Had a little on Sea too and they didn't show up at home and were down 14-0 before they touched the ball for the first time. So basically I owe my local some more dough and I still have like 1500 in my online acc that I am going to cash out today or I will just play vs the shitty players on their poker site.. I have decided to pack it in for at least 1 month but maybe for the season. I have been getting so fucked by 1/2 pts with this guy it is sick. Had I loaded more money on to start the season I would be in a hell of a lot better shape than I am now. When I go 6-6 vs the local on staraight plays I am losing valuable action pts that make up for the losses. I have been putting in a good amount of time preparing and the results just havn't been there. Overall on posted plays etc I am up a little but I need a break. I have someone that offered to stake me a good amount of dough for action bets and it would be pretty much a freeroll for half but right now I just need a break and I am going to focus on poker in a big way. On the bright side I am in 1st place in all 3 of my fantasy leagues LOL .

Poker. Let's talk a little bit about poker. I started last week on a tear and was cruising. Then sometime around thursday or so I couldnt win a fucking pot and I wasn't playing my best either. Alot of my focus has been on football and monitering games and my play has sufferred a little bit. I caught myself making a ton of mistakes. I was raising monsters too early. I was trying to simply overpower people that wouldn't let me.Also keep in mind I didn't hit a draw for 3 days and I swear these sclubs hit every draw. TODD IS GOD!!!!!! I was playing in bad games instead of waiting for fish and as a result I went on about a 150 bb downswing in the blink of an eye. On top of me making a ton of mistakes with my play I fell into a trap of playing some guys I should have sat out. All in all I sprobably should have never had that downswing but when your mind isn't in the right place your play will always suffer as a result.

So this morning after I decided I was done betting sports I loaded up stars with an attitude I was going to get back to my basic rules and play my best game and destroy every opponent I play. Well that's exactly what happened. The first 3 or so guys I played I absolutely played my best poker and I cleaned all 3 of them out very fast. One guy was following me around from table to table and I kept sitting out. Now I have played this guy before and he isn't very good at all. he is very agressive but I know how to combat his style because he is just bet bet bet raise raise raise all the time and he never knows when to slow down. I have played him once or twice before and the rake taken in our games has been insane so I told him I didnt want to play, then when I had the table lowered he showed up and hit me for a quick 25 bones and ran. Then he kept coming and sitting out blocking my tables and I was getting pretty pissed off. Finally I asked him why he was bothering me and why he wouldn't leave ? He said that he wanted to play a fish . Well I told him that he had the wrong guy and then he started egging me on and I said fuck it I'm going to give this guy a beating and a beating I gave him. I took about 200 off him in about 10 mins then he quit me and I don't blame him one bit cause the stuff I did to him was making my own head spin. Then since that match as I have been typing this up I have run 200 to 1200 on 1 3-6 table. I am fully motivated to play a ton of hours this week and every week for the near future. I am going to lay off the 10-20 and just play a ton of 3-6 and mix in a little 5-10. I am still beating the 10-20 but it is a very small sample size. The 5-10 is pretty easy and the 3-6 is stocked with plenty of largemouth and it is so consistent and thats what I want. I just want some fresh blood to prey on and thats what I am going to get.

Other than that I've just been chillin with my little buddy Boris. Man he is a great cat with a great personality but the other night in the span of of about 20 minutes he went bezerk. What he has been doing is hopping on a dresser then hopping up about 2.5 feet to where my to where I have a direct tv box and a 42 inch flatscreen and he tries to attack whatever is on the screen. Well naturally I have a spray bottle and I have sprayed him like 3 or 4 times for going up there but now when he gets up there now and sees I am going for the spray bottle he gets down before I can get it. So after dodging me about 3 times I see him making a jump and this time he clings onto the direct tv box and yanks the thing down and the tv is shaking so I run over and make sure it aint gonna come down and when I get everything stable he is hiding. Then about 5 mins later he is on my window sill and my cellphone is charging and he rips that down to the floor. then about 2 mins later he jumps from the window sill into a tiny trash can and knocks everything over. He gets these little bursts about 2 or 3 times a day and sometimes it is hilarious but one of these times he may hurt himself so I'll be trying to keep a close eye on him. Oh and within 5 mins after these disasters he is taking a snooze in his bed sound asleep LOL . Other than that I have been slipping with the cigarettes a bit but not full blown. today will be the day I stop again. I got some new niconine gum and this shit is working great so far today. No booze since my disasterous day in early september so thats good. I havn't been working out / running a lot but I have been sticking to my diet and have cut about 12 lbs over the past 15 days so that's good. I have been eating a chicken burrito with all veggies from chipolte just about every day for lunch then eating steak or chicken for dinner with steamed veggis or a baked potato. It has been doing the trick thusfar and I havn't really been hungry so so far so good. Tomorrow I am going to start hitting the beach again for morning runs then mix in a rub n tug every few days and I will be fresh and focused for the day. When I write again next week I expect to be up at least 2 or 3 more thousand and thats just how it is going to be.They will pay. They will all pay this week and every week. Mark my words.

Mini Comeback For The Maniac

Well last Wednsday after I finished the previous blog I just played nonstop poker for the night. I was agead about 300 and I decided it was about time for bed. Then just as I am about to X out the screen some guy sits at 5-10 with 80 bucks. I decide to play him for a quick 80 before bed. I looked him up and he was a slight winner for 10-20 and a huge loser in 5-10. Well I said to myself if he beats me for 80. Well I wish that's what I did but that was clearly not the case. This guy would flop pair of deuces vs my ak on an Ace K 2 board after would hit like a deuce on the river every time. Shit like that happened for about 30 hands straight. Mix in a few tilt calldowns by me and I lost like 600 to this guy in a blink of an eye. I had plenty of money to keep playing but I just wasn't feeling it and felt I would spew if I continued so I quit.

I was very tired and hungry it was about 7 A.M. after all that so I decided to get some Mcdonalds breakfast cause I didn't even have the energy to pour a bowl of Cereal. So I went and grabbed a couple of sandwiches and a couple of Hashbrowns and this shit taste so good on the way down but the truth is mcdonalds breakfast sucks. The hash browns were like 100 percent grease cause they probably just transferred them to my bag from the fryolator and the sandwhiches are always too dry and overall I will have to give Mcdonalds breakfast an F. Add the fact that I got sick again after eating this shit for like the 3rd time in a row. I woke up like 10 hrs after eating and I had a sore throat and my ears were fucking ringing. Probably just a coincidence that it was after mcdonalds but whatever. I slept on and off till like Friday at 10 pm and I was surprised I felt 100 times better when I woke up.

So Saturday is just around the corner and I need to make some selections for Saturdays NCAA. I was already in the hole cause I bat on the shitbag phillies and I lost Monday Night. So from like 1 A.M. till around 9 A.M I did some homework on the games then when I was done researching I sat at some Hu tables. I sat for maybe 3 hours then no action. then some schlub sat at 10-20 and I beat him for like 600 real quick. I wanted to keep playing him cause he wasn't all that good but I had a dilemma cause I had to call my local and get the lines. I told the guy I would be 10-15 minutes then he jetted. Oh well.

On to some college football .First game up for me was the one I mentioned last week which was VT vs Bc. I was all in for 1k in action bets and VT destroyed them and I go onto my online book and see that instead of having 2k in my account from the double up they credited me with an extra 1k so I now had 3k!!!!!!! I obv wasn't gonna say shit to them cause I had been taking a beating with them this year. The reason they fucked it up is cause all action points are done by hand and I figured some noob just made a mistake. So first thing I did was take the extra 1k and lay it 100 a pt 10 pt cap on NCST. Well Nc st lost outright to Duke so that was now gone. Last game of the day was Florida vs. Lsu and that was a push so I still had 2k in my online acc. With my local I wound up beating him up pretty good on a sleu of games so all in all it was a great day.

Then Sunday rolls around and I wake up and the dough is still in my account so just as I am about to lay it all on Philly I click refresh and bam there is 1k missing. Motherfuckers!!! Never would have placed that NC ST play had they not credited me with the 1k so now my Virginia Tech work is pretty much nulled. I wound up winning in the NFL for the day as usual and I cut my debt with my local down to pretty much nothing which was good. All in al lI think I made about 2k betting and 2k in poker for the week so It was a pretty good week. The only thing that dampened my day was paying about 1k in random bills.
So sunday night the college lines come out and 1 game jumped off the screen when I saw it. Texas opened at -3 . Texas is rolling and has revenge on their mind after they lost the 3 way tie to Oklahoma last year and they just seem to be coming together at the right time. Oklahoma on the other hand had trrouble with Texas last year and they are missing an ALL American tight end and most likely their leading receiver. They have a young line and I feel this is a great spot for Texas to win big evn with bradford playing. I got down on this for at -2.5 -125 for my biggest flat play of the season. Line has already moved to 3.5 in some spots so this looks good to me right now. I also got down on a bunch of other stuff as the board looks extremely juicy this week.

Last night was nearly an epic disaster . To start things off I lost the side and the total in the monday night game. Then I was playing poker all night and it was like a seasaw. I was up a couple hundred then this kid sat that was a huge NL loser with no limit experience on stars. So yet again another guy hitting everything on me and I mean everything. Within 10 hands he got dealt KK AA and turned a couple of sets to crack my hands. I was tilting a little making light call downs and then before you knew it I was in the hole 800 to this guy. I really couldn't get too good of a grasp on how he played cause he was hitting everything then I could tell by the way he played a few hands I could get my chips back if he played long enough. Well I immediatley went to work on this guy checkraising any paisr and pretty much calling any q high to the river. I beat him like 10 hands in a row and he went on massive tilt. He was capping air on flops and turns and I would just sit back and raise his ass on the turn with just about any pair and he would call me down with 10 and j high etc. I was pissed cause he had to leave for school and he really wanted to tilt it all off for me. All in all in about 2 hrs of play vs him I lost like 200 or 300 and that was probably all donated to the rake. I hope he shows up tonight. Things already looking good cause I have the under on this sun belt game @ 52.5 . Hopefully this gets me even with my local for the week. Tomorrow Boise vs. Tulsa. Should be an exciting game.

TODD IS GOD

China Out

Full Steam Ahead

Last time I wrote I was taking some bad beats on my college games which will happen from time to time especially when you are betting the type of volume I am. Heading into Sunday I had a bad taste in my mouth and I did some solid research on the games and I kicked ass at 1 Oclock. The problem was from 4 on I did't win a game and wound up being a slight loser for the day. Sunday night towards the end of the night when the college lines rolled out I took a peak at the lines and I was seriously puzzled. For the first time in a long time I was like WTF? I am usually betting 10-15 games on Saturday but I really didn't have any strong opinions on the games and I really thought long and hard on what I was going to do for the rest of the season. I was frustrated cause I piled up a debt with a local guy and my online account only had about 1k in it. Here are the 3 options I gave myself

1. Cashout and stay away from the games
2. Play PLO and run that shit up like a madman
3. Try and run that shit up and get back on my feet

Option 1 would definitley be the smartest and
option 2 would have been fun but I opted for Option 3. I am going to give myself 1 more chance this week and if I fail I will most likely shut myself off. I never say never but this is the most likely scenario. So here is the plan I am putting into play for the weekend. The first game I saw that could be a potential Blowout is Virginia tech over BC. They are laying 13.5 in Blacksburgh where they decimate teams. BC is a surprizing 4-1 but they really havn't played anyone. The only time they stepped "UP" in competition they beat a bad Florida State team who is falling apart at the seams and they lost by 20 to an overhyped Clemson team in a game they could have lost by 35 easily. SO I am going to start with that for 100 a pt and a 10 point cap. If that sucker hits I think I might move all in onthe Gators -8. Lsu plays well in these primetime night games at home but I just don't think they have the horses to compete for 4 quarters at a very high level and that is with or without Tebow. Lsu has been winning but they have barely beat a few of the teams they have played and could easily have 2 losses . Florida on the other hand really havn't played anyone significant but they have blown the doors off of everyone they have played with the exception of the VOLS who played not to win, they actually played to not get blown out. Whether Tebow plays or not I believe Floridas horses are just stronger, faster and better coached. I also love their offensive scheme as it is tricky to defend. Throw in the fact that they have all 11 starters on defense and are laying 8 I will take this all day. Anytime you see Florida as a favorite of under 10 pts I believe it is a must take no matter who they are playing. They are just that good.

So that's the plan with my online cash for Saturday. I gotta go meet my local guy tonight and pay him off . I may take a few stabs at him Saturday and Sunday but I am still kind of undecided on that. 1 reason I hate betting with Local Books is most don't offer Action bets and this usually costs me money. Another reason I hate betting with locals is when it is nearing the end of the week or it gets late into Saturday you are losing you start thinking in the back of your mind that you gotta go and meet some dickhead next week and pay him off which sometimes will cause you to pull the trigger on some games you normally wouldn't bet and sometimes you will raise the amounts trying to get out of a mini hole and it can get be very bad for your bankroll if you are snowballing losses while raising your bets. So hopefully all goes well Saturday and if it does then Sunday looks like a candyshop on a few games.

There are a few teams in the NFL that flat out stink and should be faded just about every week IMO. One of these teams is the St Louis rams. Man are they bad. They have been outscored at a clip of like 28-11 there last 15 games or something like that and it doesn't get any easier with Minnesota coming to town this week. Then you got TB whose defense is putrid and have a New QB starting. Good Luck marching into Philly. Then you got the Oakland Raiders. man this team is fucking bad. I mean real bad. The last 3 boxes I have looked at Russell has been like 7-23 LOL. BUST
Throw in the Chiefs Browns and Lions and LOL. The oddsmakers will eventually adjust and these teams will be getting a ton of points but sometimes it just doesn't matter cause some of these guys will just continue to lay eggs every week. I'm hoping if I can get through my Florida game that I have a shot at action betting against Oakland , St. Louis and Tampa Bay cause no matter what hapopens none of these teams have a shot at winning and they will most likely take a beating.

So after all the deliberating on what to do this week with the foorball I have decided to start putting in more hours playing poker. I always write that I am going to play more hands but I never do but I lit a fire under my ass and decided it was time to put the pedal to the metal and sunday night/ monday night I put in about 1k hands and won about 500. Then last night I decided to mix in some 10-20 with the the 3-6 and 5-10 and see how it goes. now what I do is I will open up 3 tables and once someone sits I sit out the other 2 tables. Multitabling HU limit can be a dister sometimes and it is tough for me to make the proper reads on what guys are doing so I just will play one guy at a time on a first come first serve basis. So I am waiting and some guy pops up on my 10-20 table. I look up his stats and he only has like 300 hands of 50c 1$ NL and he is getting crushed. So we start to play a lil and I took an earkly lead on him and then he gave me like 2 or 3 sick beats and the way he played the hands told me if we both got a fair shake with the cards I would wind up with all the chips by the end of the match and I was right. I played him for about 10 minutes or so and cleaned him out of a 500 ball. Then I sat around for a while and beat up a couple of guys at 5-10 and 3-6 and the night is going well. All of a sudden I get a pic message on my phone and I see that My brothers wife has just given birth to a baby boy. So I took a ride into Boston and hung out with the Baby for a little while and then I made my way back home. So back to the action. I sat back in and another guy pops in at my 3-6 table. I look his stats up and man I almost shit my pants when I saqw his PTR stats. he was down 119k playing variations of ever hold em game. it didn't matter if it was 2-4 limit or 200-400 limit. This guy was a pure donator and I was licking my chops. he started with 100 and I had 200 on the table. he hit like the first 10 hands and had me down to about 100 and I saw he kept adding 100 to his stack after every other hand and I said to him would you like to move up stakes to 5-10? He sat out and said yes. So I am waiting at my 5-10 table for him and he never shows up and then I'm like HMMMMM maybe he is sitting at my 10-20? So i pop the table up and sure as shit stinks he is sitting there waiting with 600 bones !!!! He rattled off a suckout on the first hand and decided he needed a break. So after about a 5 minute break he sat back in and I ran well and he played awfull and I cleaned him out in about 40 hands. So all in all it was a great day. I am up about 2k for the week and I plan on playing every day for at least 6-7 hours . I will be mixing in some 10-20 as I feel the skillset of the level of players is very similar to some of the scrubs @ 3-6 and 5-10. I also feel I have plugged a couple of leaks and my game has moved up a notch as well. Hopefully things stay strong and I can have a very profitable last 3 months of the year.

On another note I entered a weekly contest on a sportsforum site that is sponsored by an online book and picked 7 out of 8 correct and won the 300 dollar prize that will be added to my sportsbook account there. So things may be turning the corner a bit I just hope to keep the momentum going and hit the weekend with a full head of steam. CHOOO CHOOOO!!!!!!
