No fear and no loathing...

by Jose Acosta Comments 2

Hey everyone,

Blogging here it is and (pending my visa) Vegas here I come! My name is Jed Acosta, 26 years old, and I've been grinding it out for almost 3 years now. I have managed to work my way up from online freerolls to now playing middle limits both live and online. Looking back, I must admit that I was never really impressed with my learning curve and yet when I think about the things I know now and didn't know two years earlier... it has made a world of difference! I feel like my game has never been better but at the same time I realize that there is still so much room for improvement.

Winning this seat after finishing second two weeks before in the same tourney just made it twice as sweet!Cheers Coming in second was my worst bubble result and the win was the biggest to date. Aside from playing even more poker, I plan to do a lot of reading and hand analysis in the coming weeks. I have asked some friends to be my dedicated sweat partners both online and live at least until l fly out of Manila . In my "spare" time I want to watch some videos of recent WSOP main events. I am also thinking of getting some much needed excercise to help with my stamina for the gruelli ng hours to come in the main event.

Congratulations to all the the other team members! I look forward to meeting you all at the party, getting drunk and maybe playing a friendly SnG! Laugh This is goin to be massive!

Cheers,
Jed

Same stuff happen to me on Titan, a month beofre i finished 4th and i was so upset at mysekf for getting lured into an all in with only top pair ace kicker. That time when i won the card where flowing my way only to give me the nuts while sitrting on the big blind against my opponent. I was playing so tight that checking made him go over the top while i only call him nexct card was a miracle he hit is ace so he put me all in to find himself beat by my staright. Gratz to you to make it the extra miles and looking forward to see you in vegas mate
