Real Talk

Welcome to 2011 where everybody’s the realest
Everyone who a midget, say they do it the biggest
Every part of ya business is everybody business
Got my name all in your mouth
I should have been a dentist
Yeah, everybody done did it
Everybody’s a critic

I recovered slightly from a $3,000 downswing, which started last Saturday. I woke up at 5 am, decided to play a bit, dropped $2k in 45 minutes, then would continue to run bad for the next 5 days. This is really nothing new, in no way am I bitching about any of this. Up $700 today, my mindset' been good. I might finally have a good grasp on what real discipline is.

I still think my biggest leaks are outside of the game..I had too many discussions lately about my spending habits. I remember clearly, the first thing I did after dropping $2k in 45 mins was log on to online banking and pay bills, and cash out a sum of spending money. January is not gonna be a good month, 3 days left and although I am optimistic, I definitely feel somewhat dissappointed in my poker results for the past 3 months.

That aside, I want to use this entry to talk about something that's been constantly on my mind. I strongly believe that who you are as a person is determined by those around you, ppl who are important at specific points in your life. While some might say I am no longer who I used to be, that I am cold or distant, but it's not true. All I want to do is keep it simple, filter out the useless chatter from useless people. I am tired of relationships, partnerships that go nowhere in the end, tired of weak minded people bailing out on me. Tired of negative degenerates spreading their weak shit onto me, trying hard to make me feel worthless like they feel on daily basis.

Tired of exposing phonies, seriously, at this time in my life I finally realize that it's better to just avoid them than waste my time on them. At the end of the day, no one wants to be hated. I WANT TO SHOW ALL OF MY HATERS LOVE!!! We're just not built the same, I do what I do because I am good at it, enjoy doing it. This is no way a masquerade, I am currently making a living off this with no other form of support financially or mentally. The is the purest form of hustle, transforming technique and skill directly into $. Don't get it mixed up man, don't tell me how good you are when you got rich daddy covering up for your ass. I am a pro, you just a pretend pro, telling me stories about crushing live games. Everything about you is phony, My #s are always open book, yours will forever be a mystery. FACT: most live players are life time losers, you might've done that 10 years ago, but now you's a fish, a dirty fish.

Shoutout to Robert Paape. Rob's 21, 1/2 the age as you peeps, and 2wice as real. In his own words, ya'll considered "LIFE FISH". He mentioned in his previous video blog that my confidence and discipline rubbed off on him, I meant to tell him that it's always been the same way for me too. At times he's a reflection of myself when i was his age, maybe only a bit smarter, and definitely more confident. Seeing him crush heads up only makes me realize all the time I wasted back then.

I hope I'm finally on the right track.......take better care of my money and ball it up this year.

PEACE

PWND TWICE IN A DAY

CJ says he admire me for having guts for what I did, but I think I was just being an aggro fish. I think I confuse a lot of people from being passive/indecisive to super loose aggressive in an instant. this experience definitely helped and I am no longer a level 1 hero, death knight leveled up to 2!!

I been out of the game for too long, plus my low confidence didn't help. Guess this started after I went pro, I feel out of it no matter what I do, over analyzed things, took the wrong line completely. I never used to run things with people before making a decision, but lately I find myself being such a nit. Plenty of reassurance is needed from others before I do something, by the time I get to taking action I no longer remember the purpose...

Poker drifted from my priorities somewhere this month, I'm still putting in the right volume and playing fine imo. However, I find that my leaks exist outside of poker right now...I don't want to be a life fish like some of my friends, and time is ticking.

At least one thing is still certain...I ain't living off the strength of noone, controls my fate, I hold my weight.

Shout out to my bros for all the support I got, for listening to my bs.

Was trapped but still intuitive learn to switch routes in drought
My reality's placed on principalities so
Any casualties gracefully done carefully
The real attracted me re-exchange and bill
Mathematically calculating maintain and chill

stay positive

2 days ago I almost lost it, my eyes turned bloodshot and I was snap rematching this horrible reg at the $100s on stars 2 tabling. He was very spew aggro and was eager to get any draws in, played like he was on meds. I was prepared take his roll or lose mine, because I knew he wouldn't stop rematching either.

20ish games later i was down about $1k but I came back to my senses and decided to quit. He won most of the flips, 4bet shoved flush draws n got there twice and basically played like a moron, e.g 4bet shove 55 3rd hand of game....etc. I haven't gotten this pissed in a long time and realized that even after 2 years of part/full-time poker I am still capable of acting degenerate.

I calmed myself, next day I woke up a bit earlier and saw him at lobby, insta sat him and opened up 2nd game, got insta sat and continued. 3 games later i was 2-1 but he won 2 big flips and A9>AQ'd. Gonna keep playing this guy and bust him.

It might be because of the weather lately, I'm getting mildly depressed...I was told to take Vitamin D. Keeping up with gym, scheduled to see trainer tomorrow...I keep reminding myself that going pro's not easy, and I'm gonna have to improve my mindset, attitude, if I want to do this for 2 years...Maintaining a fixed schedule when I can wake up whenever I want is difficult, but I'm gonna keep trying, fail to succeed....BOOM

O ya, another thing to note, I will start coaching a friend of mine who's had very little experience w/ poker. I handed him NL THEORY BY SKLANSKY today and will start teaching him heads up tomorrow, in return he's gonna cook for me and do my laundry. I gave up coaching this one guy last year because that dude exhibited everything I hate about poker players, had no talent at all and was ridiculously degenerate...I felt like it was a complete waste of time for both of us. Hope this time it'll turn out better..I'm also doing this to review my own game theory, hhs, and to help getting into routine by waking up early. Black card updated and I want to average 1500 ftps from now on for the 3xftp....easily achievable if I can wake up early and play more sessions.

I am the truth, on a whole nother lvl

Who am I besides homie that expose the phoney?

panda's spiral of degeneracy

panda's not sleeping, eating well recently. panda's sleep schedule is completely fk'd, 3 melatonins won't put panda to bed. panda's eating no vegies, only meat, panda's having trouble taking a shit, panda took zantac but it didn't help....

panda can't decide if he's happy or not, panda's up $3.5k this month from poker but it don't feel that way somehow. The profit # loses meaning when grinding becomes a continuous never ending cycle...this weather makes panda sad...

panda's trying to continue this journey without letting his ego get in the way but it's hard when these dudes r like bitches, laying on their backs, mouthing off on panda like they still in high school. panda thinks jealousy is a motherfucker.
