July Results

The games have been pretty bad the last half of this month. Additionally, I really don't feel like playing ever any more. Poker is just not really fun to me right now and I kind of wish I could be doing something more productive with my time.

Yesterday I played with Crazy Mike, this regular in the $100/200+ LHE games at Bellagio (goes by MrGatorade on 2+2). He bought in for $5k at a $1/2 nl game and was just pushing blind every hand, bragging about how the money was nothing to him because he was the best LHE player in the world.

He started yelling about how he would play anyone in the room/world in a LHE freezeout for $10k. Then he picked up and left because the floor tried to fill a seat next to him and he didn't like people sitting next to him.

The table offered the new player $70 to pick up and leave to keep Crazy Mike in the game and the player took it and ran, but CM left anyway. This got me to thinking a couple things:

1. I make no money comparatively to what I could be making
2. It is sad that I have to take the excess money that Crazy Mike doesn't care about to live off of
