Here we (Sit and) Go again: Germanys next grindette is back with SnG, PLO and HOT stuff (chilis)!

I´m a limper now!

Well guys, back from training: injured! Everything went fine and I played well, until I felt a stinging pain in my calf. And then I noticed that I can´t run anymore, I could barely walk.

Coach immediately tried to help and tried find out what´s wrong, it´s probably a pulled muscle. So that was it! :facepalm::rage: Can´t walk, I´m limping! My calf is totally blocked and feels heavy. Oh man! That sucks! Big time! So, guess there will be no sports in the next two weeks. Let´s see it in a positive light: A lot of time to relax, to read books, watch movies and for poker. ♠_ugly:

We all like to punish limpers, but we will make an exception for you.

Get well, grindette.

Well, sometimes I guess it's OK to limp.

Nice blog. Have a speedy recovery and good luck on the tables ♠_drink:

Thank you and

Thanks guys,
seems not so bad. Seems to be a pulled muscle. The weather is poo poo here anyway, so time to relax and recover.

We had even hail yesterday....

A little winning and a BR transfer ..

Today things looked a bit better, even though I still lost many hands versus 3-outers (like QQ < A3o, KTs < T8s, etc.). Decided to ditch the DONs and as there is good traffic in the 2 $ SnGs on Partypoker (and they are super fishy), decided to try out those. So, on Partypoker I played some 1 $ and 2 $ SnGs and on Stars some 0,5 $ and 1 $ SnGs. Glad to tell you that I won one of the 2 $ SnGs and got second in the other one. ♠_biggrin:♠_thumbsup: Today there were much more ITMs than yesterday, even though running under EV still, but some nice hands made it, so that I could take another first place in a 1 $ SnG on Stars and the rest were unfortunately 2nd and 3rd places, but hey, better than nothing. A promising result. Had to look at the BR, because of the BR transfer and there was a 7€ winning. I have hopes that I will get the nice "giraffe"-graph which I used to have in SnGs back in the "old days", as soon as I´m running a bit better. ♠_smile:

As I would like to play those 2 $ SnGs on Party, I transferred some BR from Stars to over there...

The DONs on Party are independent of your stack size. You only have to survive the bubble, all survivors get the same amount of money, no matter whether they have 5.000 chips or 1 chip. It´s 6-max or 8-max, and in the 6 max, the first 3 get paid and in the 8 max, the first 4.

.

I see they are also starting at $1. I think I should try them.

I used to grind them back in 2016 until 2019. Played a lot of DON back then, mainly on iPoker (back then we Germans could play there), but also played a lot of them on Partypoker. In my opinion they are boring. Not for me. But maybe they could be for you? Try it out! ♠_thumbsup:

Let me show you some HOT STUFF!!

Another little Trinidad Moruga Scorpion

1,5 to 2 million Scoville Heat Units - second hottest chili in the world

CAROLINA REAPER!!!!!!

Over 2 million Scoville Heat Units - the world´s HOTTEST chili!!!

(Another) Trinidad Moruga Scorpion

Aji Charapita

Zimbabwe Bird´s Eye

Hello! We have moved!

Sarit Gat (spicy)

Partner: basil

Jalapeno

Partner: basil

We´re comfy in the winter garden

Turkish spicy pepper

Partners: basil and coriander

The unknown one

Partners: basil and coriander

Had forgotten to label this little one, when I moved it to the winter garden (living room) last year. We will see what it is as soon as the fruits will grow....

.

Some of my chilis I sowed very early, already in January, others I just sowed a couple of weeks ago. Some are going to stay pure indoor-plants and others will be moved outside in May (after the "Eisheiligen"*)

* The "Eisheiligen" can be translated as the "the icey saints", this describes a weather singularity which shows up around May 10th. Often, around this time, the weather gets briefly cold for about a week or two. There may be even frost and snow in some regions.

They are very good for clearing bonuses.

Some bubbles, some wins!

Was a bit of a mish-mash session today. The good news are: Some hands indeed held up (AK vs AQ, AT vs A3 and such), the bad news: Kings didn´t.
They couldn´t withstand Q8s (lost vs runner-runner flush) after being jammed on the flop.

They still seem to be snowflakes, the queens did much better!

They are my favorite poker hand anyway. ♠_love:

Could take some nice wins today and some second places and two 3rd. There were also some (frustrating) bubbles. ♠_ugly::rage: So, guess we ran pretty break-evenish today...

Best to get dealt four Queens in Badugi, bluff everyone out of the pot, then show.

I think you did pretty well today, your luck wasn't so bad anymore either. You probably made a small profit.

Hilarious hand Harrier!

Okay, now I know where my luck went ...

..not to the poker table but right into my skin. Had to check a strange skin lesion at the doctor. Our family doctor was shocked when he saw the lesion and directly sent me to the dermatologist. There, the doctor exaimined my lesion and found that it´s NO CANCER!!

It´s so called actinic keratosis, which can be a precursor of squamous cell carcinoma, but it´s not cancer. And it´s still a very early stage of actinic keratosis. So it only has to be removed and then it´s all good!

There´s my luck! Exactly where it´s needed!

Lucky me!
