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.

March Updates (3/13/2012)

I've managed to quietly start off the month of March above average. 

I've played 60 hours up just over +3k.  I haven't had any real break-out sessions, but I have been close several times.  However, I'm playing well and just not making the mistakes right now.  I've lost 3 out of 8 sessions this month, but for VERY small amounts (-$110, 3 hours; -$50, 4 hours; -$165, 8 hours).  The 5 out of 8 wins have all been substantial (+$650, 4 hours; +$605, 18 hours [lol], +$1060, 9 hours; +$335, 8.5 hours; +$795, 5.5 hours).

I'd rather be logging steady grindy wins then having two ridiculous positive session paired with crazy swingy losses, it's less stressful. 

This current week I'm really not going to aim for a ton of hours.  Maybe 25ish?  I have friends visiting Wednesday-Thursday so those days are pretty much gone from the work schedule.  Also Tuesday is worthless, I normally take that day off.  My only definite plans this week are to log 8 hours on Friday and 8 hours on Saturday.  I feel like a slacker when I do under 30 hours in a week, but having one week with low volume won't kill me.

I'm also planning to go to Florida the weekend of the 23rd.  I should be there at least a week to close out this month.  Going with poker friends.  Definitely a business trip, I will be playing a lot.  But I'm also going to attempt to enjoy myself.  It's too cold around here, I need a fucking mental break from AC area.

Might update soon!
