SuperDonkSeb – The Blog
The adventures of an average (at best) poker player

OK, if all goes according to plan, I won’t be playing too many games (in terms of volume).  I am going to play in $5 the heads up tourny (and actually play), plus the $26.00 – $32,000 GTD.  Its going to be my first GTD tournament, so I want to give it all my attention…well maybe throw a cash game in there…we will see.  I will keep you all posted.

So…as you can see from my previous posts, I had a rough start to my session today, but it got even worse.  Exluding one tournament in which I played terrible, I was getting in good only to be beaten.  However despite all that, I don’t think I tilted once.  When I tilt, it can become pretty bad, and I have been known just to keep playing bigger limits trying to win money back.  Today, I kept plugging away,  knowing I was making the right plays more times then not.  And with that I won my final $11.00 45 player SnG of the night for a total of $171.00…for the second straight night.  And it helped me reach a second straight winning session.

  • Current Bankroll: $269.10
  • Since Blog Start: +$103.60 (7.43/hr. – 13.9 hrs played)
  • July: +$219.10
  • All Time: +$219.10

Oh and no awards tonight…its 1 AM here, and I need to be up at 6…I think I am going to do awards for the week on Friday…then daily awards for Saturday and Sunday.  Sorry everyone!

Off to a great start.  In addition to the sit out, I just had my nut straight lose to a two pair on the flop that turned into a full house on the turn, the a 4 of a kind.  You know…for good measure.  Poker is so much fun!

Remember me playing in the $5.50, yeah so that didn’t happen.  Which is fine, had to walk the dog…didn’t mind at all.  But forgetting to unregister, yeah that was the problem.  Hopefully I can make it up.

OK, so everyday poker players come across idiots…its true.  It is my opinion that the lack of responsibility of the internet is what leads to some stupid plays/comments.  Well, I am here to put that to rest.  Here are the awards for July 20th.

Best Poker Name:

  • poundthatas s

  • Nothing much to say…just awesome.  What a fantastic name.

Stupidest Comment:

  • Here we have a little discussion about AK, and how this individual doesn’t like to raise with it.  Yet he called an all-in with K7 a few hands later.  Plus you got me shamelessly plugging my blog.  I need visitors.

Worst Play/Bad Beat:

  • I actually had a nice little photo of someone calling an all-in with K7 and sucking out on QQ but I lost it…so just imagine it.  It was spectacular.

Well, there you have it, my first day of blogging.  See you tomorrow around 6:00.  In the evening of course.!

So I ended my first day of this wild experiment up $31.90.  Kinda ho-hum I know, but the way that the day started and almost finished, I should have been down over $100.  After taking a few bad beats, losing some coinflips, and making some flat out bad plays (I am human) I was down to $26.40 left in my entire poker account.  But after getting in my final $11.00 tournament of the night (terrific bankroll management I know), I ended up winning it for 171.00 bucks.  .  And here is some proof:

Here are my session stats (by the way, I am using CheckYourBets.com to track my sessions.  It is a free online software.  Anyone know of any better free session trackers?  If so, leave them in the comments!):

  • Since Blog Start: +$31.90
  • July: +$147.40
  • All Time: +$147.40

Here is a little bit more about myself, so you can understand where I am coming from in terms of poker.

What is your goal in poker?

Well my goal, like everyone elses, is to make a butt-load of money.  What is a butt-load?  A butt-load is the amount of money that you can fit in your butt.  Apparently that is a lot.  Also, my goal is to improve my game.  I consider myself average at best, but I feel with enough studying and experience,  I can keep improving.

What is your favorite game?

In order, No-Limit Hold-Em (of course), Ohmaha High, and Razz.

Where can I find you online?

You can find me on FullTilt, with the name of SuperDonkSeb.

Who are your favorite poker players?

Gus Hansen, Huck Seed, Phil Ivey, and Phil Laak

What’s going on everybody.  So I guess I have decided to start a blog.  If you couldn’t figure it out by the title, my name is SuperDonkSeb, and you can find me on FullTiltPoker under that name.  I am not a pro player or a big name online poker player, just a 21 year old who loves hates loves poker.

So why am I starting a blog?  Well for one, I plan on using this to track my daily poker sessions, and (hopefully) I could use this as something to look back on when I have success playing poker.  So why should you guys be visiting this blog?  Well I think that I can be funny somewhat entertaining, and I also plan on sharing what little knowledge I have with regards to poker.  Also, along the way, I will be showing you, the reader, some of the best names, worst plays, and stupidest comments that I come across along the way.  It should be a fun ride, and I hope you all enjoy it with me.
