::picking up chicks, the best beer in town and help from the poker gods::
last weekend, friday, i was at my frens party. we were celebrating at la baronque. so yeah, you know, the usual stuff.. everyone gets fuking pissed drunk(except me, i dont really like to get drunk, jus high will be fine). and you know, they have live band and stuff. but because the event was held at the higher ground. didnt managed to much of the live band or so. we were jus drinking, chatting, blah blah blah. so eventually we decided to move our butts to the dance floor. and man, thts it, i was upclose to the band, and there it was, standing. one hot chick. the lead singer(Jess) of the band(they've got e male & female). i was pretty mesmerized by the way she dance and sing. they've got my favs such as zombie,bring me back to life, my humps, etc..it was really good stuff, and i was jus leaning there at the ledge, and looking at her making her moves. for her singing effort and moves, i would give 9 out of 10.
ordered a beer. the first thing upon tasting the beer even though i was already high, i'm like, FUCK, THIS IS THE BEST BEER I EVER DRANK IN MY LIFE!. I swear dude, the tiger beer over there, is soooooooo goood that it makes calsberg, henniken or whatever beer down to shame.(this place is at la baroque at chimjes. the old china jump.Go there and try the beer)
with the best beer i ever drank, a little tipsy, jus a little, and there i was looking at one of the few singers tht actually caught my eye for a live band or even perhaps the hottest i ever seen, and not to mention my fav songs and also her great voice. i was in cloud 9.
eventually the live performance ended, so i went to sit with my fren. and you know, i saw the lead singer buying some drinks at the counter. well, this is the do or die time. i jus picked up my courage, get jus beside her and ordered a beer. and then i turn around and jus said, you sing very well....... yada yada yada...
and now the story is to be continued. of course i didnt get reject la, if not no more story. ;).
jus a few days ago, wanted to blog how my poker is getting shit man. by the 14th i was up 7.5K sgd, and 3 days ago i was down to profit of 5.5k sgd, had a really bad run of cards. and mannnn, how things can change so fast sometimes. with a profit of 5.5K, i tilt quit badly yesterday at the 5-10 tables and lost another 400 usd. being tilty, you become brave and i ended up with the sharks at the 20-40! was down another 400 usd in the first 10 min.. man, the profit for the month, it can get so bad(anything below 5K a month is bad for me)... thk god, somehow i managed to get out of the rug, and came out a winner with net profit of 700 usd at the 20-40tables. so in the end i was up 300 usd for the day........ and you know, jus woke up today. got to choose some games to play.. saw the 20-40 games.. somehow alittle itchy... hmm.... and somehow, sat down at the 20-40 tables again. FUCK, i made 1450 usd in half an hour!.. i am out of the bloody table. current profit for this month stands at 9000 sgd from poker only. side business another 1000 sgd, and referalls for poker + etc is another one grand. so effectively i am up 11K sgd for this month. :) cool.
still i aint gonna spend over my budget(2K a month), the rest will go to my savings for my up coming business. need lots of capital for it. ;)
Andry at 6:15 AM for the uneducated eye:
its true that perhaps playing poker and winning for days, you tend to be egoistic about it. i dont suppose there is anything wrong about it. playing full time, making money from poker, and going to EUROPEAN POKER TOUR and gets invited to play in london, aint i suppose to be a little proud of my achievments since i played full time for 6 months? and if you lose for days, you will tend to feel like the worst poker player. those who plays poker will know what i mean. if anyone would like to know, i just lost 1.3K sgd today, and the feeling totally sucks big time. i do feel sad and feel like a shit player now, yet i must learn to accept what i am going thru. even though i have been in this job full time for 6 months, i still find it hard to accept the flunctuations that goes with it.there are bad days too, and good days, but i tend to blog my better days, cause i dont want this site to be negative.
i dont blame the general public's perspective though that poker is gambling. poker players will know that its is a game of skill where the best will win in the long run. there are many reasons why one go broke gambling etc etc. i aint gonna get technical with it. if you would like to know why there are big losers in gambling, its simply because people are playing games in the casino's favour. but poker is always in the favour of the better player. e.g, are you saying casino is GAMBLING to earn their money? definetly not simply because we all know that in the long run they will win all the money. its the same for poker. in the long run, the better players will get all the money and likewise as the casino they will have some losing nights.
before going full time into this job. i met quite a lot of obstacles. when i first bought my first book ever from borders, i got laughed at. for spending 70 dollars on a book, of all books, a POKER book. When i told my frens about going full time online, some snigger. the general stigma: you cant win everyday, and are you going to stay at home everyday and stare at the computer screen all day long for the rest of your life without socialising? even when i was winning for a few months straight, it was still deem, "yeah, your bad time will come, better save money, or else you will lose everything" ...
but at the end of the day, i am the one making more money that i could ever imagined i could. i certainly didnt socialise much, but i did get to meet alot of people during live poker games. some of which is investment bankers, civil servants, etc etc. and i am going to get a good deal from HP for my laptop simply because i got to know some guy who is working in the company from my poker session. yeah, i stay at home most of the time, but thats becasue i dont need to move my ass to work. i work when i like. and i get to party anytime i want instead of the usual saying "i cant go, i've got work tmr". and i get paid very well per hour too.
and yes, there has been talks that this job has no prospect. what if one day you cannot make a living out of it? haha.. i am in the process of changing my future. i am using all my money to invest in some business idea i have.
are you gonna work 20 years to save 100K in your bank and then start doing your business OR work 2 years, save 100K and do my business? u get the idea now!?
and if someone were to asked me if i deserved what i get. i will say yes. i didnt go through hardship to get where i am today(not implying i am fuking successful, i jus doing better than the average guy at my age now), but i went through lots of mental obstacles to get where i am today. the stigma of gambling, etc etc.
for your information, the amt of money i make from poker, is very minimal as compared to other full time poker professionals. so there is nothing to be proud of. and btw, this is what i do for a living for now, therfore, this is what i have to blog and its always natural to blog about what is exciting, and to me making these kind of money sometimes, and going to the European Poker Tour is an exciting thing to me.. it havent quite settled in me yet(if the readers need to know as again,7 months ago, i am penniless, cant afford shit) . readers should jus get used to it. Go to www.fullcontactpoker.com and screw him if you would like to(are you gonna screw him for saying he makes around 20K usd a day, lol)..
and of course, i also have read articles from poker professionals themselves that when most girl hears about a professional poker player, they will run as far as they can. i read this even before i decide to go full time. but thanks for your excellent advice still. i have given thoughts about this too, and how i will do to get what i want, simply by getting at least the 5cs, and hopefully my business will florish. by then, being successful, HOPEFULLY that stigma will be gone.
"now i am jus still nobody, who is hoping to make his mark in the world, with a little success so far, but still a long way to go to reach the top." - this is my sincere thoughts about myself.
Andry at 5:43 AM was browsing through my emails. and saw lots of previous emails of to and fro. its been only 20+ days that i have had some important thing going on. but from there till today, wow. fucking fucking so many stuffs happen that you jus feel that its been a year ago.
firstly, i have been proposed a stake in company for a price of 10K usd for 10%.
met 3-4 new pretty chicks, but it jus ends there.
won a freeroll after coming home drunk and somehow one way or the other, i won more tournaments, and i qualified for the European Poker Tournament(first prize of at least 300K usd!!) but due to visa problems, etc etc etc, decide to fuck it and go europe another time.;)
got invited to play in london for a tournament. still awaiting confirmation. first prize of measly 25K usd though.
My poker has reach new heights. i really can feel the improvement in my game. so much tht i must say, i starting to feel a little bit egoistic about my excellent poker skills. this month, couldnt be better, today is the 12th, and i am up 7.2K sgd... average of 650 sgd per day.
Andry at 11:25 AM since the past few entries. many things have happened.
if any of you wondered how did i fare in the EPT touronment. i got 4th. jus one rank off to getting the tics to the copenhagen event. i won 1200 usd instead.
i was pretty upset. ALL-IN preflop with aces and got called by pair 9. lost to pair 9. if one would like to know, the chance of PAIR 9 winning pair AA preflop is only around 18.1%. and i lost tht, thts how i was kicked out and won 1200 usd instead of a package tournament to play in the prestige EUROPEAN POKER TOURNAMENT worth 6000 usd.
i am so disappointed that i sent an email to their poker manager. and knowing him quite well to a certain extend... begging him, saying how well i played throughout the whole tournament(which is true as i was the chip leader for most of the last part of the tournament.), how i was outflopped with my pair of aces.
guesss what. he OFFERED me the package to COPENHAGEN!!!! YES!!! i am going this january!!! i am going!!!! yes!!! there is a catch, i will have to forgo my current prize money of 1200 usd, and also whatever profit, its 40/60%. they get to keep 40% of whatever prize money.(as i blog, i jus won another freeroll, first prize. 300usd, gotta share 50% with my brother though, its his account!).. i am a fucking happy man now!.. hehe... its gonna be an experience of a lifetime.
jus had some live game. crushed the game so badly one of them even said tht i should perhaps leave the game. keep winning people's money. hehe.. ;).. thts what a professional poker player suppose to do right? i won 1400 sgd off them in a space of 5-6 hours.
life is looking so good for me now. there are more interesting news to spill out actually, but i shall tell you guys these stuffs for now. goodnight people. ;)!
POKER POKER POKER POKER!!!
::my biggest live game pot::
my biggest pot of the live game: under the gun limps in, so does everyone,seeing pocket 77s, i limp in, until small blind, who raise to 10 dollars. big blind calls, everyone else calls including me. pot is 70 sgd, flop is 9s 7s 2h(i flopped trips), with flush draw. raiser bets 20 dollars. big blinds calls, another player calls, (pot now is 130 sgd) i call and raise another 250 sgd(i didnt want any callers).player behind me folds, preflop raiser folds, BB calls after some long hesitation. another player thinks for a while and folds(he knows he is beaten even though he has 2 pairs pair 9 and 7 to be exact). i put BB on flush draw. turn came the ace spades making possible flush. big blind, all in. i call(he is shortstacked). i know i have lost at that point.he opens for a nut flush with Ks 2s, and i showed mine with a set(777) now the board looks like this 9s 7s 2h As.. river came 2. i got full house. he has nut flush. i take giant pot of 900 dollars home with my last hand of the night.
Andry at 6:30 AM thinking back about some stuff in life. some things changes very fast. for me, i remember 7 months ago and now. was jus aiming for my 1000 savings by dec. this amount, have increased more than i could have thought.
internet has created many opportunities. i know of one who has a similiar story. its a good thing.
and been doing very well in touronments these days. tonight is the EPT touronment with a buy in of 600usd. i won an entry during a freeroll out of 700 entrants, and i came in first.
today gonna be tough, one of my biggest touronment. the top 10% of the entrants will be going to denmark to play the european poker touronment with an entry fee of 6000usd. it will be quite a dream come true for me to be playing there. and think about it, when i jus started playing poker, this is like a dream come true. jus like how footballers wish they will end up playing for premier league one day. well, i suppose i would jus say i am the equavilent of being the s-league now, BUT there is still much more room for improvement, and perhaps one day, i'll make it to the espn. :)
but to think about it, i am very pleased with my progress with poker. played full time for 6 months, and the progression made, its enormous.
the one thing great about this job is that, you really will see your rewards if you put in efforts and its instantous results, unlike how some company, even after you putting effort and you will not be promoted until later in your career and maybe, by then you will be jaded. this poker thing is like, i dont know. i jus love it come to think about it. i play very little a day, i enjoy my job, and i get fucking paid highly for the per hour rate. and the promotion scheme couldnt be better if you get "promoted". i cant think of any better jobs man!
yesteray went to a live game at a frens place. made a killing there, won 420 off them. was up 700 at one point, but my pocket kings, 2 times, lost to Ax off. and i reraise them preflop. so wtf! went on a little tilt and made the worst play of the night. dont even talk about it, tht pot, i lost 350 sgd. in one hand. yeap. thank god, i kept my cool and didnt tilt further. :)
wish me luck for tonights ept touronment.
Andry at 8:58 PM 2006 resolution:

get 6 packs out of my flabby tummy. :)
have 100K in total assets by dec.

::my biggest live game pot::
my biggest pot of the live game: under the gun limps in, so does everyone,seeing pocket 77s, i limp in, until small blind, who raise to 10 dollars. big blind calls, everyone else calls including me. pot is 70 sgd, flop is 9s 7s 2h(i flopped trips), with flush draw. raiser bets 20 dollars. big blinds calls, another player calls, (pot now is 130 sgd) i call and raise another 250 sgd(i didnt want any callers).player behind me folds, preflop raiser folds, BB calls after some long hesitation. another player thinks for a while and folds(he knows he is beaten even though he has 2 pairs pair 9 and 7 to be exact). i put BB on flush draw. turn came the ace spades making possible flush. big blind, all in. i call(he is shortstacked). i know i have lost at that point.he opens for a nut flush with Ks 2s, and i showed mine with a set(777) now the board looks like this 9s 7s 2h As.. river came 2. i got full house. he has nut flush. i take giant pot of 900 dollars home with my last hand of the night.
Andry at 6:30 AM thinking back about some stuff in life. some things changes very fast. for me, i remember 7 months ago and now. was jus aiming for my 1000 savings by dec. this amount, have increased more than i could have thought.
internet has created many opportunities. i know of one who has a similiar story. its a good thing.
and been doing very well in touronments these days. tonight is the EPT touronment with a buy in of 600usd. i won an entry during a freeroll out of 700 entrants, and i came in first.
today gonna be tough, one of my biggest touronment. the top 10% of the entrants will be going to denmark to play the european poker touronment with an entry fee of 6000usd. it will be quite a dream come true for me to be playing there. and think about it, when i jus started playing poker, this is like a dream come true. jus like how footballers wish they will end up playing for premier league one day. well, i suppose i would jus say i am the equavilent of being the s-league now, BUT there is still much more room for improvement, and perhaps one day, i'll make it to the espn. :)
but to think about it, i am very pleased with my progress with poker. played full time for 6 months, and the progression made, its enormous.
the one thing great about this job is that, you really will see your rewards if you put in efforts and its instantous results, unlike how some company, even after you putting effort and you will not be promoted until later in your career and maybe, by then you will be jaded. this poker thing is like, i dont know. i jus love it come to think about it. i play very little a day, i enjoy my job, and i get fucking paid highly for the per hour rate. and the promotion scheme couldnt be better if you get "promoted". i cant think of any better jobs man!
yesteray went to a live game at a frens place. made a killing there, won 420 off them. was up 700 at one point, but my pocket kings, 2 times, lost to Ax off. and i reraise them preflop. so wtf! went on a little tilt and made the worst play of the night. dont even talk about it, tht pot, i lost 350 sgd. in one hand. yeap. thank god, i kept my cool and didnt tilt further. :)
wish me luck for tonights ept touronment.
