Quick Bio

After many years of going to school and saying no to drugs I graduated with a degree!  Little did I know it would lead me to being beaten into the ground at the hands of a soulless corporation.  After 3 years I quit to play poker professionally.  I've now been full-time over 7 years, yet revenge is still in the air.  It's crazy to look back and realize I started this blog as I was simply 'pumping myself up' to quit the real world and go full time.  Now I also do some writing for fun as a 'day job' (some freelance and paid, but an insignificant sum compared to 5/10 live) and airbnb my place when I don't feel like playing as much.

Day of Freedom: 10/22/2010

My corporate employment offically expires 10/22/2010, I got it exactly the way I wanted it.

DAY OF FREEDOM:  10/22/2010

I wanted to really leave on good terms, which I will be doing.  My boss wanted me to stay until the end of the current project, which I agreed to do.  It’s beneficial to her because she doesn’t have to hire a new person and try to train them for a month.  By the time she trains him the project will be over anyways. She has time to plan and wants me until the end because I know exactly what needs to be done to close this project out.  It’s good for me because I leave on mutual good terms.  I can also take the extra two weeks as an extended transition period as I begin moving stuff up to New Jersey (and of course playing live on the weekends).  So in the end it looks as if there will be no big explosion, no grand exiting scene.  I will simply drift off into the unknown and pursue my own passions.  There were no hard feelings and I think that’s important when everything is said and done.  It's good to leave with maturity, class, and respect no matter the situation.

It’s also good to have the specific date set and I can’t help it, I'M SUPER EXCITED right now.

I only played about 7 hours online this weekend, but won just over $500.  I’m on a small winning streak online (6 out of the last 7 sessions) and I like where my game is right now.  Everything is clicking, it’s just one of those weeks.  I’ll leave it at that and won’t run on like I usually do. 

The beginning of the end is here!
