Hey guys,
Been putting in some more volume. Internet's now fixed so that's not an issue anymore. Put in 110 games today in 5 hours, -$194. AA < KK for t55k and the CL with 11 left. So it goes. The roll's growing, which is nice and I'm working on watching some DC vids and really starting to think about poker (more than 15bb's deep...weird, I know).
I finished "The Great Gatsby" the other day and didn't find it that great. Everyone raves on and on about it. I started "Slaughterhouse Five" which is supposed to be really good too but I don't really like Vonnegut's writing style. It's really casual and sometimes he just comes across as stupid, or, at the very least, overly simplistic. I actually have a pile of books I want to read but haven't. They include:
The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Mind Gym
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
A Clockwork Orange
Ender's Game
There are some others but hopefully I'll get through some of those this summer.
It's sort of annoying having put in 570 games 1/3 of the way through the month and have -$200 to show for it but that's the nature of playing mainly 180s. I did 888 last month and had 2k prof. so you can see where I'm coming from. Just gotta keep grinding.
Reasons pointed me toward a thread (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/36/stt-strategy/account-hacked-529537/) about a guy who's been a regular in the STTF forum forever. Apparently he's a really nice guy, plays for a living, and got hacked on Stars for 14k. He has a wife and daughter, etc so obviously this is devastating for him. People on 2p2 usually piss me off (with super short, unhelpful responses like "ez call" or just by being dicks) but SSTF has been surprisingly good about this. Everyone has expressed their condolences and they're organizing a 10+10 tourney (where the 10 in rake goes to kevstreet, the guy who got hacked). I'll be playing in it, so will Reasons. If I can't make it, I'll ship him some money. I just can't imagine what it would be like to lose 14k, especially when it's money he relies on to support a family. Just brutal. Check out the thread and the tourney.
Gotta watch the end of Airforce one. Also, congrats to wbmustang on 10k prof. Nice work.
Later,
Yodaddy
