Stake Update Blog Etc.
So I hit a small rough patch early and have ripped off about $18,000 in wins the past few weeks and hopefully this continues. I have been killing all of the limit 6 max and ring games and have barely played any heads up at all. Some days I open Merge and I can't even get revolution open because I have 3-4 tables going at a time right off the bat! I actually sat at some 25c -50 c NL the other day to show a family member how online poker worked on Thanksgiving and stacked some guy for $25 with my qq vs his JJ and we made $50 in that game!
Anyhow here is where we stand as far as bankroll is concerned. While I was killing Merge I was running bad on Revolution and dropped to about $3,000 on there but have worked it up to $5,000 or so over the past few days and the 8-16 and 10-20 games have been good.
Before I went on a sick run on Merge I was getting low there as well but have since run that up to as high as $26,000 but we now sit with about $24,700 there. That is a lot more than I would like to have on any site right now but the bottom line is there is nothing I can do when I am winning so fast and the cashouts are not instant but I will continue to move funds offline like I always have and keep us in the best situations possible.
So poker has been going great and everything else has been good as well. I knocked out A LOT of my Christmas shopping this past weekend which is good and can't complain about much else going on in my life accept my exercise routine. I just can't string together more than a 2 or 3 days at the gym. I wake up every day and jump online and play poker but I have to change this. I need to get back to a 6 day a week to the gym routine and I am starting that now! I keep making excuses."Ah it's too late","I dont have enough energy " or "I'll start tomorrow" . Getting back to the gym now before I start using the it's too cold excuse. Time to shed some serious lbs and get back to where I was 2 years ago!
Off to the gym!

$38,425
Short break turned into 8 hours of sleep! So anyhow I am heading for a workout soon and might play a bit before I go. But for sure will be grinding all morning and afternoon.
Probably be playing like 2-7 am Saturday and Sunday but will update when I play

$37,056 done for night
$37,224
Played for a bit this morning and booked a small win. Over next 2 days I will be busy with life outside of poker and will be away from the command center but will have my laptop with me and if the situation presents itself to get in some hands I will do that. So more than likely I will put in some volume and will update if I do. But more than likely will be passive on the action over the next 2 days.
Anyhow we are sitting at +12,224 and I am very pleased with that number through 1/3 of the stake. BCP is moving on the 3rd to winning poker network so I will be grinding there now as well as merge and revolution. They have a fast cashier as well so I should be able to start ripping off 3k-5k per week.
So since BCP is moving to a new network that means I have to play on a new Merge skin. In preparation for this BCP move I started loading funds onto a new skin and I have enough to get started with play there after the switch. We also have another $750 bonus at the new merge skin as well which I will start playing in a couple of days. I will let you guys know that screen name when I start play on it.
Have a great weekend

BIG GAME ON MERGE IN THE VERY EARLY HOURS OF TODAY. 15-30 AVG POT 327.00.PAIR OF 4 WON A 528.00 POT.6 HANDED GAME. THE NIGHTSTAKER AKA CHINA MISSED THIS EVENT BUT EVERY BODY NEEDS SOME TIME OFF.IN THE POKER WORLD ITS VERY HARD TO GET A WEEKEND OFF. THEY WERE NEW PLAYERS IN THAT GAME. BUT THE REGS GOT THE MONEY
Took 2 days and feel great. Will be grinding BCP, Tops and Merge today
New screen name on merge is chinamanistacks
also had to change BCP sn because someone on network had 1cool1
now chinabrainiac
$34,259
Took a little bit of a beating today, in a very short span today lost Nut flush to straight flush, 2 set over sets and 2 straight over straights and just got clobbered all around everywhere
Anyhow we are now playing 3 sites.
Intertops- Have a good sized bonus I am clearing there
Merge- Have another good bonus I am clearing but took a beating there today and dusted most of what I loaded. Hopefully can run it back up so I dont have to re-deposit
Bcp- My entire merge roll was just moved to this network. This is good cause starting tomorrow I can start unloading funds off of here. And I can try and pick up some action in the process. I actually got some decent action there tonight.
Back for more grind tomorrow
Played yesterday and maybe lost $100 in limited action so roll is roughly the same as last update
Had to catch up on some sleep because I played most of the day Monday from 10 am to 3 am , 15 hr session and that was my longest in a while
Started about 45 minutes ago and I am up about $1,000 playing heads up today so far :)
Will update throughout the day

I am exhausted right now to the point of no return and need rest
Yesterday for the first time in a long time I really felt burnt out. I played some long 15+ hour sessions this week while doing other projects online during dead time. When I woke up after ****ty 5 hr nights of sleep I would start work instead of going back to sleep and getting rest that I needed. I would pound a couple of coffees and just get back to the grind.
Only yesterday it REALLY caught up to me. I woke up with a minor headache due to working a 3rd 18 hr day in 4 days and sleeping only 6 hrs. I pounded a coffee and it did nothing. I pounded another and it did nothing. At some point in the afternoon I felt really worn down and was having trouble focusing and I felt I couldn't play or work any longer.
So I fell asleep at about 6 PM and caught up on sleep.I slept about 11 hours total and feel much better today. While lying in bed I told myself I need to start working out first thing and I have to start sleeping a solid 8 hrs every night. That's where I work my best and it will prevent burnout. But this week was a little different than most. I had a pile of work outside of poker I had to handle and while I knocked it all out it broke me down a bit. One thing is for sure I am def taking a vacation after this stake ends.
The merge games are still great but this week I have hit a HUGGGGGGGGGGGE rut there. Just seems every time I flop Ax8 with 88 they hit the ace on the turn we get in 5 bets then they pair there other card on the river. Or When i flop Qxx with qq in 4 bets pots pre some guy shows up with a run run gutter with 45.
Mehh , variance, I am not worried about it. After winning about $20,000 in the merge 15-30 games over the course of a few weeks I knew I would have some losing days like this so I am not complaining. On the other hand I have been running real well on Revolution so things are ok overall. And since BCP moved I have got little action there but I have taken the big step of moving a good portion of all of the money I won when they were on Merge offline. By the end of December I would expect to have a lot cashed out and will update when that happens.
So for the weekend I will be spending time away from the office but I will have my laptop with me. I will grind when I have opportunities and will update.
Played a little HU today and lost about $50 so roll is roughly the same. Great things are about to happen. Time to run this thing over $40k
