Planet Rock

So I've discontinued the other poker blog. plan9 is a much better name. I wish Stars or FT would let me change my name.

I now officially have a coach. Yay, we haven't scheduled a session and I have yet to pay him but he's mine. Don't know how to say this without sounding like a dickhead but here it is: He's playing lower than 1/2 according to his blog. This might mean nothing, it might mean everything. I don't really understand how he can hope to help me beat 1/2 if he's not even playing it? We'll see. Obviously, if he sucks I'll have to fire him. I hope he's good for both our sakes.

Oh, this blog will be almost exclusively poker related. Um, I'm on another break. Might break until...whenever. I don't care. Also, PLO is off limits for now. Sure, I'm getting better but the variance is sick. Think I talked about the KK23 v. 8764 on AK485 board. He called PSB 6way with 8-high FD, turned two pair. On the river, when I hit my wheel, he took an eternity to raise. That might have been a slowplay but I think, more probably he didn't realise he had rivered the nuts. I'll say it again, calling two PSBs with an 8-high FD is retarded. IDK, maybe his turn call is okay given the straight draw. His two pair is junk. His FD is junk, although it was live against my exact hand.

Wii stuff: Wii from Scotland should come on Friday, as should Zelda & Red Steel from Amazon. My VGA transcoder was out of stock so I cancelled that order and got one off ebay. Um, I just hope it's as good as this more expensive one. The only thing I care about is 480p. That too should be here by Friday.

Anti-tilt: BBC's Planet Earth. "Seasonal Forests" has to be my favourite episode, I think. The diary was hilarious too. Watched "Ocean Deep" as well. Kind of a meh episode. The diary on that was fierce, though, diving unprotected with white tail sharks. Balls of fucking steel.

Still need to make video. Probably add "Pixies - Where is My Mind" as an intro. It seems appropriate.
