    Brag

    Beat

    MTTs never happened.

    Variance 

    Cash did. 

    ----

    I've realised already, with only a little exposure to intense exericise, that running is a real burtal battle between body and mind.

    My body throughout todays run was screaming at me to stop, only the power of a determined mind could resist the almost irresistable urgers and continue. 

    Real agony, from a long way out. 

    Still, it got done, and whilst it was extremely painful, it wasn't as bad as this mornings poker efforts. 

    Hopefully a 9am start on Saturday and some overcast conditions will help me improve my time from today. 

    I know I've got the 5k in me, just got to go and do it now ! :)

    Want to get my money back off those Belerussian Bosses first tho. $£$£$£$£$£

    Smashed it, well done :)

    As I'm sure you're well aware 3.2 miles = 5.15km, your park run will be exactly 5.00km.

    Absolutely correct. Just about everybody, no matter how unfit or overweight, has the physical ability to run 30 minutes eventually if they really want to. Not many have strength of mind required to win all the inevitable battles between body and mind they'll encounter on the way. You did, congratulations.

    Ok, the weekend didn't go to plan.

    The aim was to...

    Completely relax Friday

    Complete the Park Run Saturday.

    Win at Poker Sunday.

    What happened was....

    Walked 15 miles Friday.

    Got drunk and lost at poker Saturday.

    Spent Sunday in bed.

    ----

    ayahhhhh.

    ----

    So it all started going wrong when I saw a dog I really liked at the rescue kennells whilst walking on Thursday.

    It meant I had to rush through again on Friday (and then walk the 13 miles home) to introduce our current 1 (Bonnie) to the potential new 1, Bryan, to make sure I got him before anyone else could reserve him.

    That left me absolutely nackered, and I'd already decided by mid afternoon on Friday that the run wasn't happening.

    Back we went on Saurday for a 2nd introduction, and brought the big guy home. 

    He's a little under-weight but he has come from rescue, and that wont be the case for long here. <3

    ----

    So after the busy day dogging, I decided to have a beer or 2 for the England match.

    Which was fine.

    What wasn't was the 5 or 6 I necked afterwards and the £50 or so I spewed at 20nl whilst doing so.

    Grim reminder of the dark days, waking up on a Sunday feeling awful and then remember I lost money to boot. 

    Grim.

    Sunday was wasted, and even this morning has been a struggle.

    Hopefully that wont happen again. 

    ---

    10nl over on the dollar site has been up and down since the last roll update.

    Here is a graphical representation of what has been happening

    http://imgur.com/kErBrpM     **proper image there now!**

    $43 profit = £30.33

    Minus the £49.51 I donated to the 20nl guys on here.

    = a loss of £19.18 since last roll update.

    New bankroll is £2306 exactly.

    Not going to lecture you on your hopefully 'one off' wagon fall. Try not to be tempted again during the Euros and please focus on all the good work and effort you have put in so far mate.

    Bryan & Bonnie should keep you out of trouble now anyway!

    As for poker....you are the only one who can control that.

    Ive seen a few episodes Bonk. I think it's very good.

    A few cringe bits, especially when the birds voice goes so high pitched. Reminds me abit of enthusiastic 14 year olds in drama class trying to put expression into their voice and going ott. 

    But it's funny. Which I guess is the aim. 

    Kay very good. 

    He's done some really good stuff then some utter tripe with that Geraldene thing.

    Just here to update yesterdays poker anyway so I dont duplicate results using the tracker. 

    Played another 2 small sessions, 528 hands and 513 hands, making $17.91 and then $16.93.

    = $34.84 = £24.59

    Roll = £2330.59

    Gd'arfternoon. 

    Nothing much to update of late. 

    2 weeks and 2 days into my challenge to lose a further stone, and I'm down 4 lbs. 

    That means I'm down exactly 50 Pounds since New Yrs Day. 

    ----

    Poker has been slow this week too. 

    Huffed and puffed alot and lost 5 books. 

    ---

    It's just a mystery to me poker.

    When I first started playing and then for the 4/5 years after that, the buzzword was always "AGGRESSION"

    "AGGRESSIVE" players are "a nightmare to play against".

    If you bet and raised alot, you were said to be good. 

    We watched the likes of Durr and Ivey on TV running $400,000 (CASH) multi street bluffs in cash games with 7 high. 

    Nowardays, even at low stakes, if you try to get 3 streets against a winning regular you're pretty much bluffing with hands that'd previously be considered the nuts.

    And don't you dare even think about making semi-hero call downs! :) 

    ---

    I played a short 600 hand session yesterday, and these 3 hands all happened. 


    1)

    This opponent was kind of new to me, but he'd started playing tight, as is the norm at a new table. He's played 8% of hands over a sample of 40, but we cant read too much into that.

    Good Morning.

    I've not been around to post alot lately. 

    Well I have, but didn't feel like it.

    Had abit of an upsetting time irl, and didn't fancy writing about it. 

    Still don't, but there is some poker results to update!

    ---

    First running/fitness/health.

    Getting better!

    Last weekend I finally got round to doing my first park run.

    I was very weary of failure, so I ran well within myself, and completed the course in 32 minutes and 57 seconds. 

    My first mile took 11mins 24, second mile 11 mins 23, and the final full mile 9 mins 36.

    I felt like I had plenty left in the tank at the finish line, so now I know the course. and have a better idea of my capabilities I'm confident I can shave a decent chunk off that PB in the coming weeks.

    You guys were right, it was an excellent event. 

    The enthusiasm of the volunteers/organisers made it such. 


    Spot the speedster / Wheres Wally. 

    This week I've ran continuously @ 5.5 mph for 40 minutes, which is a new high.

    This week I aim for 50. 

    To complete a half marathon I'd need to be able to run for well over 2 hours @ 5.5 mph.

    I'm beginning to think this may be out of reach by September 11th. In fact I'm pretty sure it is, wp Dad & Geldy, u were probably right :(

    Although I'm not giving up. And if I'm not ready for the target date I'll aim to get there asap. 

    * Weight loss total for the year now 4st & 4 lbs. 

    ----

    Poker...

    We've moved up to 25nl this month. "Finally"

    Mixed fortunes so far, but overall positive. 

    This is the party/bwin Giraffe. 


    I'd prefer the bottom line to be a tad closer to the top one, but it's nice to run good at all ins when moving up a level. I'll take it.

    I also played abit of 20nl on sky 1 morning, just 1 table whilst I couldn't get alot of bwin action.

    And dropped 50 quid. 

    So overall up about £135 for the month. Also within a gnats knacker away from a £32.50 'rakeback' payment which is a pleasant bonus. I aint used to getting rakeback! 

    ---

    Roll = £2441

    Congrats on your Park Run success. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. Sounds like you did a great job with the pacing. I see a sub 30-minute Park Run in your future :)

    As for half marathons, it's definitely better to wait until you feel ready than to rush into one too soon. In September I'm now almost certainly going to be running in the Bridgwater Half rather than the New Forest Half. Then the Cardiff Half and Exeter's Great West Run in October.

    I'm entered into the Exeter 10K on July 20th. It was my first 'race' when I returned to running in 2014, I crossed the finish line in 50-43. In 2015 I did it again, 49-39. This time I'm going to have a crack at getting that down to about 48 minutes.

    The most impressive number for me in this update is your 4 st 4 lb weight loss in 2016. That is an incredible achievement, must have made a massive improvement to your health and well-being. I hope it's helped get you through whatever the upsetting real life stuff is.

    Thanks Gary. I'll be disappointed if I don't crack 30 minutes at my next attempt, which was due to be 2 days ago but an unfortunate family incident @ 2am put pay to my 7am alarm and I couldn't make it, which was disappointing. 

    I'm not quite as used to the early starts as you are! :)

    Good luck with all your runs, if readers are interested in supporting GaryQQQ in his running endevours he's attempting to raise some £ for a great cause, you can read about his challenge here https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Gary-Qualter.

    Some of the justgiving links I read are pretty 'meh' imo. Always good causes but often the challenge is pretty easy. That can't be said here, 3 big runs in 3 countries inside 5 weeks at the age of 50 is some achievement if he can do it! glgl. 

    ----

    I've set a personal 40/40 challenge of my own for this week, running Monday - Sunday midnight. 

    I want to aim to play 40 hours of 25nl ($), or 20nl if I include some sky.

    And also run/walk 40 miles (with a minimum of 20 of the miles being 'run') 

    I'll be using my pokertracker to record the grindage, and the Runtastic app to tot up the mileage. 

    ----

    After posting here on Saturday morning I fired up a 25nl session and dropped 7 buyins within 90 minutes. 

    Spent all day grinding it back, 7h and 30 mins later I finished + $0.14.

    It felt good. 

    As I said to a friend, if nothing else it was a useful exercise to build up my swings tolerance :)

    Also the added bonus of unlocking £32 worth of rakeback. 

    http://imgur.com/a/rUWLw

    So +$51 = £39.54

    +£32.22 Rakeback

    - £14.51 from a mini sky 20nl session (ill win on here 1 day)

    = + £57.25 for the weekend. 

    Roll = £2498.25.

    ---

    Unusual 'quirk' of the site I play on. 

    When 2 people are all in pre flop in a cash game, the hole cards aren't revealed until after the community cards are dealt. 

    I 3bet a very solid regular who opened the cutoff when I was on the button. 

    I had pocket Aces, of course. Nobody ever 3bets without them right.

    He came in with a 4bet. 

    I put all the money in, hoping he had a hand to call, and that it wasn't the other 2 aces.

    He took a while to decide, and then called. 

    Yes. He doesnt have the other 2 aces. 

    The board ran out KKQQJ. 

    I didn't even look back at the table to see his hand revealed, just wrote off the 25 quid. 

    fml. 

    Wish he had the other 2 aces :(

    Any excuse for a bad beat story. 

    ----

    40/40, time to get productive. 

    GL this week all.

    Day 1 of 40/40 challenge down. 

    I decided the best strategy was to try and put a dent in the mileage. 

    A 7 day challenge gives me room for 4 intense exercise days and 3 less demanding/rest days inbetween which will be used to chalk up the bulk of the 40 poker hours. 

    So yesterday I walked 5 miles exacty and ran for 5.1 miles exactly. 

    What is most pleasing was the 5.1 miles were ran continuously, which blitzes my previous best. It took me exactly 1 hour. 

    I am so chuffed to have achieved that. Much of the route was through wet woods too, so I was constantly navigating puddles and mud which would've effected the time. 

    I reckon if I'd pushed myself to the absolute limit, I could've eeked out another 2.5/3 miles of running.

    That means I have 5/6 more miles to find to be able to run 13, by September 11. I'm starting to believe it's possible again, if this rate of improvement continues. 

    ---

    Got in 2 x 1 hour poker sessions either side of the exercise. 

    Had success on sky for once (although I've already lost all that back at the start of day 2 :( ), and down a little on bwin. 

    + £51.93 sky 

    - £15.92 bwin 

    = + £36.01 day

    Roll = £2534.26.

    Miles completed = 10.1 / 40

    Hours completed 2/40

    Day 2 = grind.

As you said judging by rate of improvement since you started gotta be feeling optimistic,  surely it's less of a task than what you have managed between when you started and now.

    Oh, mbn Ben!

    Getting up and out running would be alot easier with that Park on my doorstep, I loved it there on my 1 brief visit. 

    From my experience walking through the suburb there is no shortage of exotic takeaway options there either. 

    All sorts of tastes and cuisines catered for. It was pretty surreal for someone as poorly travelled as I am. A real experience <3

    May struggle if you fancy a standard English chippy though :)

    ----

    How's the HU going?

    I'm finally, (and it really does feel like FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYY) starting to get some confidence in my mind/body, enough to move up and start playing some semi-serious poker again. Now that that's beginning to happen we will have to finally get round to doing that bit of HU work. 

    Any sort of real study/poker work has felt pretty pointless thus far, given the off table struggles. May be getting there though.

    Yeah seems really nice round here, only just moved from Essex so don't really know the place very well but has defo increased motivation to exercise by a huge amount, people seem like 3x times more friendly as well a welcome change. Yeah sure always up for discussing/working on game, don't go on skype much these days so just pm me on here. HU is going well thanks just turned into an emotionless robot the last few months :), thinking about doing some work on spins over the next few months to add them to the grind seeing as stars seem to be pushing all the action that way these days, you considered them/played any at all?

    Spins sound like the worst game for me Ben. 

    I've played a few micro ones and during the spin I'm half hoping I don't land a big game because I'll get too scared :D

    Making an error in a game on a huge spin after waiting days/weeks for that 1 single game would just destroy me.

    Day 2 of 40/40

    If I can learn to fold again I'll be alright on sky. Totally different game to what I've been playing.

    total hours played = 10h 20 mins /. 40 total miles = 12.82 / 40
    5 days remaining. ----- Getting the swimming trunks out again tomorrow for early risers :) It's been 10 years since I last swam. I hope I can remember how it's done. Then a long 10 mile walk home is the plan afterwards. I may have to bail out at some point though :/ Then I guess poker after! Lots of work to doooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    Spins are boss.

    I've been grinding them for around 9 months. There is so much variance built into them that you have to be able to cope with swings. But upswings in them are beautiful.

    New strategy spots, recreationals who are very recreational, big spinning wheels... what's not to love?

    Pretty good day today all round. 

    Managed 30 lengths at swimming, which is ok for a first shot. And is probably going to hurt alot in the morning.

    The walk home was only 6 miles, so I added a 2.7 mile tonight to get over halfway with the mileage part of 40/40. 

    3 and half hours of poker too, plain sailing for most of the day but ruined at the end by me trying out a microgaming site and getting pummelled. 

    Wasn't a fan of the software, couldn't get it set up right and get outplayed alot too. Not a pleasant experience. 

    Sky = + £11 

    bwin = +$85.16  (£64.85)

    Microgaming = - £32

    Total = + £43.85.

    Exercise...

    Finished off this weekend with the park run yesterday, recording a time of 29 mins 30 seconds. Or thereabouts. 

    Kicked for home a mile out this time. 

    1/4 of a mile out I was wishing I'd kicked for home 3/4 of a mile out.

    Pain.

    Then 8.5 mile walk this morning, thinking that was enough. 

    Got home to record it, and realised I needed another half mile to top 40 miles, so went for a 1am stroll this morning. Cannot be defeated by a poxy half mile!!!

    Total rest day tomorrow from exercise, then on Tuesday I'm going to set off jogging slowly and jog and jog and jog until I'm absolutely flat out and cannot go another yard. 

    And see how far that is. 

    Then make a decision on how realistic this half marathon goal is. 

    I'd really like to raise some £ for the rescue kennells I've been volunteering at. Each time I go there I'm impressed even more by the passion and commitment of the staff and management. And the positive impact dogs have on peoples lives makes it, imo, a great cause. They rely heavily on public support, so if I can make them a few bob as well as volunteering my time that'd be great. 

    Need to get fitter though!

    First, toast and bed :)

    Very well done on the "fitness regime" & sorry to hear about the life issues.  
    Pretty awesome life changes over the last year....keep it up.

    When I first joined sky poker your essay on cash poker (which was about 20 pages long) 
    was one of the first things I read.  
    Most of it went totally over my head of course (at that time I knew zilch about poker) 
    but I remember thinking ...this poker thingy can't really be THAT hard?

    How WRONG I was!!!!

    something fantastic for you.

    since january 2014 there have been 14,768 major tournaments on sky poker.  well over 50,000 players in them with 4,792 players playing at least 100 games.  the meaningful result amongst these is the percentage of games cashed. 

    You are the 12th best player on Sky Poker.

    Well done, you have a fine game.

    That is indeed awesome Aussie, thank you. 

    I've been sent at least 1 version of your tables at least once a day every single day since you began doing them. 

    You may (or may not) be surprised how popular they are. 

    So for me to appear on that 1 proving I'm the 12th best player on skypoker and probably in the world has made my day.

    Obviously the 11 above me are just running good.

    Ty for the kind words phantom & Pad. 

    "that poker thingy" as you put it Pad, imo, gets harder and harder the more you try to learn. 

    It's really messing with my head at the moment. 1 day up, the next right down. What a challenge it is. 

    aghhhhhhhh

    Cancelled the run today.

    The weather gave me an easy out. 

    Maybe tomorrow.

    You're probably at least the 12th best runner on Sky Poker too. 3+ minutes faster over 5K is a massive improvement, very well done. When I said I saw a sub-30 in your future I wasn't expecting you to bang it out just like that at only your second attempt.

    The all-time average Parkrun run-time is 27-43 (see the stats at the bottom of their homepage). You'll probably go faster than that too if you keep the training up.

    Haha maybe 1 day Gary. For now I'd be happy with best 1212!

    Not long in from my third park run this morning. 

    I was in 2 minds about going, I played snooker with a few or 6 beers on thursday and felt it on Friday. Then I woke today with a little tummy trouble. But forced myself to get myself up and out and clocked an official time of 29mins 16 seconds. (although my own unofficial time was 10 seconds quicker, I always start at the back of the pack with the old codjers, it takes us a while to reach the start line :)

    The first race I took part in, towards the end I got involved in a race to the line with some random young lass, from about 400m out she kept looking behind her and doing just enough to hold me off. I could not get past her, didn't have it in my legs. 

    It was a good battle, gave her a hi 5 at the end and told her i'd get her next time! :)

    Anyway 'next time' I didn't see her during the race at all. After checking the results I saw that she blitzed me, (and her own PB) by over a minute.

    Today I was coming up to a bend on the course during the final mile. I was sure that I saw her coming out of the turn I was about to enter, about 200m ahead of me. 

    Decided to steadily increase the pace until I was on her shoulder with about 400m remaining.

    I knew I didn't have much left, so I tried really hard to stay out of her peripheral vision, if she saw me she'd speed up for sure. 

    With about 200m left, I decided I had to go for it, and put in a full on sprint to blitz past her. It was a big gamble coz I was out on my feet. 

    Luckily it paid off, I think the speed that I passed her at put her off the idea of trying to re-catch me. Even though I was basically at walking pace for the last 100 yards. 

    What a thrill :)

    Ok it was 'only' a kid. and a girl. but fu! haha. 

    Mo is next!!!
