CARDRUNNERS
What's Your Edge
I haven't updated this thing in awhile. I stopped making entries when CR switched to the new site cuz the blogs weren't really ready yet. I hope to get back in the habit of updating this frequently.
September was disastrous for me on the poker front. I had a terrible run at 400nl, then i dropped down to 200nl and the mayhem continued. I think I lost around 8k for the month, far and away my worst month ever. I took the final week of the month off and tried to clear my head, as I was playing really bad after all the sick beats I'd taken. I cashed out a large percentage of my online roll.
In October I've been playing mainly the 200nl deep tables and its been going well. Its so much easier to not tilt when you don't have a billion shortstackers coming and going in the game (and when you have a working internet). I haven't put in as many hands as I'd like, but my focus and play is good and the results are good. Hopefully I'll be back to 400nl soon.
The other day I won my biggest 200nl pot ever. It was just under $1600. The pot put me just above even for my session after a long hard struggle all day.

Following up from last month's success I have started off this month well also- primarily playing 400NL Full Ring. In fact, I'm almost as much as I was all last month combined. I haven't even really ran “great” either as I'm up less than a buyin according to PokerEV on all in luck before the river. With FTOPs coming around, yet again, this bankroll booster couldn't really come at a better time as I can now play in more events without feeling really negative about losing. But I will think more about that when the time comes. Hopefully I didn't jinx myself already.
While I am writing this at around 10:30 P.M., I'm waiting for my friend Justin to call on whether or not he's going out tonight. If he don't it looks like I'll be staying in unfortunately. One of the weekend nights I want to go out and it is looking like a no go. I have a couple ideas on things I could say wherever we go, if the opportunity is right, whether or not I'd actually use it is another question entirely.
UPDATE: It's 10:53PM and appears we are not going. It's not worth it at this time now anyway. Time to get unchanged. One rare night I was in the mood to go out too. I really really don't feel like going to this one place tomorrow night as apparently a crap band is playing there which means you'll need the usual sign language and lipreading to communicate. So I have no idea on what to do now.
Big game this weekend. It's going to be really tough- much more so than last week. One thing that concerned me last week is after moving the ball, we couldn't get it in the endzone. If that happens against the Giants, chances are we won't win. I was hoping to win tickets somehow but that did not come to fruition. As for the other games, I'm thinking Panthers will crush the Cards by at least 20. Titans and Ravens could go either way as I really wouldn't trust Flacco or Collins against either of these defenses. For the sake of not picking all favorites, I'll go with the Ravens. For the Steelers game, I'm always concerned about their line giving up sacks but I don't think that will be much of an issue in this one. I also can't imagine Turner outcoaching someone two weeks in a row.
