http://willtheeaglesoar.blogspot.com/2008/11/yikes.html
When will the eagle soar? Thursday, November 20, 2008. Favorite hand of the night, AA utg, raised to 4xbb, shoved on by button with AK (who had me covered by about 40 bb). Aces held. Two hands later AA again, re raised same players raise who shoved remainder of stack, I called of course, and he flipped over QQ and my Aces held again. Hope to see him again soon. Good luck on the felts! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an error in this gadget. A Cardschat Golden Archive. Why can't I win?

CANADIAN DREAM: December 2008
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 27, 2008. It's so easy getting caught up with the daily, weekly, monthly swings. I know you and I have heard it a fucking million times, but all you should be concerned with is the hand.at hand.and the results will come in the long term. A year is a good long-ish term, and I really can't be disappointed with how things have gone. Past my wildest dreams considering where I ended up, but I did pretty damn good, and am pretty proud of myself. I have no doubt that my current situation is t...

CANADIAN DREAM: August 2008
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 31, 2008. August results, September goals. So, August results:. Coaching is going well, though I should ship him a few more HHs. Played almost purely 6-max. Didn't fix speedbag, didn't skydive, survived birthday binge (which was a marginal 7/10 vs last year's 9.5). Next month is pretty simple. More hands. Seriously, MORE FUCKING HANDS. I'll be coaching at the very least one person from CC, so that will take up some of my time. Saturday, August 30, 2008. Ignore, this is a brag. Some of the ...

CANADIAN DREAM: October 2009
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 10, 2009. Trip report: Niagara Falls. Fallsview hotel: sick looking room, nice TV, but the internet connection sucked, and they didn't even have wireless. At like $150/night it was too pricey imo, thankfully we split it 3-ways though.). I ran pretty good - should have noted some hands in my ipod but I was just too lazy. I remember playing pretty snug for a while, but loosened up once I got reads and found some spots to value bet thinner and bluff. Some hands, from memory:. Soon after, I...

CANADIAN DREAM: May 2009
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 23, 2009. Expekt and the Gnuf bonus. Just a quick note. My expekt deal (ipoker) finally went through. I get a certain percentage through the site, and a certain percent through my rep, and it adds up to %50. First full month I get more than that though since my rep wants to make up for having it delayed for so long. On the other hand, I'm 5500 points into clearing my gnuf $1k bonus, and I'm not sure it's more worth it to stay there and grind it out or to start hitting up the ipoker tables.

CANADIAN DREAM: March 2009
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 30, 2009. Why haven't I been posting as many reviews? Well first and foremost I'm lazy. On a serious note. So instead of looking at each hand individually and separate from others (with metagame considerations obviously), we look at the results of our session; "FUCK, today I lost $X, and it's going to be harder for me to win $Y on the month now". Of course the results of each month are insignificant and arbitrary, and the important thing is simply playing each hand as best you can. I have n...

CANADIAN DREAM: July 2008
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2008. 2000 hands, $170 profit. Think I'm going to have a short post here, but I think I'll have a lengthy sit-down with myself to seriously think and write about tilt and how it's affecting me in the next few days. It'll be mostly for myself, but I'm sure it could help some others who have tilt problems too. For what it's worth, Taylor/Hilger's The Poker Mindset. Knowing it was probably on the horizon (and here it is! It's just not worth it. Sunday, July 27, 2008. I guess it was thursda...

CANADIAN DREAM: June 2009
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Long time, no post. Every once in a while you kind of need to take a step back and evaluate what's going on in your life. Right about now would be a good time for me, and where better to do it than this rarely-updated archive of boring shit some people call a blog. I guess we can start with poker. To do and which spots. But applying it all with the proper frequencies. That's nearly exactly the same actual dollars and EV at $25,000). Though, than I ran good. This year I'd literally...

CANADIAN DREAM: The great depression begins
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2009/10/great-depression-begins.html
Thursday, October 1, 2009. The great depression begins. Toronto winters suck. I mean the only thing I look forward to in the winter is watching and playing hockey - aside from that, Toronto's nothing but a big depressing pool of dirty, salty slush for like half the year. It's only 8C and I'm already busting out the box heater and blasting it on full. (That's right, I don't even have proper heating in my house). Oh, this is a poker blog, isn't it? Looking at it now, I actually played 20k hands in Septembe...

CANADIAN DREAM: February 2009
http://chucktscanadiandream.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 21, 2009. Basically since Valentine's Day I've dropped about two grand and my nice start to February flip flopped into an ugly downswing. Even so, I feel great. For the most part it's because of Jared's videos and the small session I had with him. To reiterate what he wants me to work on:. Tilt management (paying close attention to my emotional level in-game, keeping reference cards on-hand, etc). Nor have I done any organizing! I figure my ideal schedule will be something like:. Get b...
