Poker tales from Monkey Island: October 2009
http://truthans.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Poker tales from Monkey Island. Tuesday, 27 October 2009. Visitors from Germany and my Performance Review. After that first bit of action they brought back the scooters and decided to hire a car instead, which turned out to have been a wiser choice. So the rest of the holiday my mate was on a lot of painkillers and vodka but he was ok. I asked for pictures and hope to get them at one point. All three of them are really nice blokes and one of them actually is the bass player of the last band band. Sunday ...

Poker tales from Monkey Island: Getting ready + Hartmut
http://truthans.blogspot.com/2010/07/getting-ready-hartmut.html
Poker tales from Monkey Island. Friday, 23 July 2010. I am getting picked up for the 700 Euro tourney in Marbella in one hour and am pretty excited. I guess this eagerness for an upcoming tourney will often result in even bigger disappointment but I just hope that my run good batteries are fully loaded. I just need to remind myself of a few things:. Don't get fancy play syndrome. 95% of players in the field do not have the capability to do sophisticated bluffs. Some ranges can be wider than you think.

Poker tales from Monkey Island: A different rythm
http://truthans.blogspot.com/2010/07/different-rythm.html
Poker tales from Monkey Island. Thursday, 22 July 2010. So I haven't played Poker for a while now and instead I found the motivation to do some sports again. So I joined the gym around the corner and started to work out. Currently I seem to be going to the gym 5 times a week and am finally motivated enough again to watch my eating habits a bit more. So I guess there is a fair chance that with an ongoing strong will I should be able to lose weight again before I get married. Other than that Gibraltar had ...

Poker tales from Monkey Island: May 2010
http://truthans.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Poker tales from Monkey Island. Monday, 24 May 2010. Despite Munich losing the Champions League final to a very clever playing Inter Milan it was a very good weekend. I crushed the game on Friday and on Saturday for almost 1k GBP in total profit. This takes my total offline poker cash game profits to 7.317,50 GBP which with today's courses is exactly $10.590,50 and I have therefore surpassed the magical $10k mark within pretty much exactly 11 months. Wednesday, 19 May 2010. Well done me (serious brag).

Poker tales from Monkey Island. Monday, 26 April 2010. 147 star is a sick man. Massive, massive congrats mate! Friday, 23 April 2010. My Wedding is getting closer and is only 4 months down the line. With the proximity of this event now I started getting nervous about a lot of things. In the end it's a big decision which in the ideal case will be made affecting the rest of your life. I have set a deadline for end of May for confirming attendance, so whoever hasn't done so by then will have to stay at home.

Poker tales from Monkey Island. Wednesday, 11 November 2009. Our long time German friends which we lived together with in the UK for a while are coming to visit us here in Spain for a week.
