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.

Strong Week (4/16/2012)

Baglife Inc shares had a positive fluctuation this week, investors seem somewhat happy for once.  Analysts have upgraded the company to "HOLD" from "SELL FUCKING NOW".

I ended up winning just over 5k in 38.5 hours this week (24 hours of 5/10 and 14.5 of 2/5).  On the month I'm up just under 4k so far.  The week before this one was one of the worst stretches I've had in a while (Florida where I first jumped into 5/10 games) so it takes the pressure off slightly.  During the past week I had all of my wins on week nights.  Friday and Saturday I combined 8.5 hours and actually lost -$45.  Sunday I got back in the green winning $900.  At this point I'd probably rather find a good game during the week, rather than Friday or Saturday.

Despite the great week I feel incredibly unsatisfied at the moment.  I'm not quite sure what is wrong with me.

Changing subjects, I've had a great business idea on my mind, and I want to start getting a plan together.  I think it has serious potential.  I already talked to another family member who thinks I should go for it and said he would invest first.  It's something in the back of my mind, but I want to start committing time towards this weekly.  Still a tough task because I'm fighting hard to stabilize at 5/10.  Grinding hours and hopefully money monthly still needs to be my first focus whether I like it or not at the moment (I think).   

This upcoming week I want to log at least 32 hours.  I'm going to the beach tomorrow to relax.  I'll most likely aim for a sessions during the nights of Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
