A point-by-point update of life and poker
Ok so I might have sucked you in with the title. There’s not a ton of new stuff to talk about but we’ll give it a go. I’ll break it down into categories as promised:
Hokie Football:
I went to ATL for the VT/Alabama game. I know alot of guys aren’t into college football or anything other than poker, but if you can’t handle this chatter move onto a category that interests you. We managed to lose the game barely but we really should have lost by 30 pts. Our offense is a joke and we just ran hot to be able to force a turnover and run back a kickoff. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been on the board. It was a blast though. Let me say however 8 hours of tailgating is too much tailgating. I’m going to be going to several more games this season especially since I don’t have much else to do and my drive to play poker this month is just none-existent (see later).
Bengals Football:
Kill yourself bengals. I hate watching your games because I know something bad is going to happen.
Kanye West:
Poker:
As mentioned above, I really have no desire to play this month for some reason. It would seem I am getting a ton of invites from people I haven’t seen in awhile to go out and get drinks and I’m really enjoying it. I will likely get back on the horse and play cards for some amount this month. Currently however, I’m about breakeven on the month and 12k hands in. I can’t seem to get anything going and can’t seem to run good to save my life. The only reason i’m breakeven on the month however is that I really brought my D game for the first few days of the month. I let me non-sd winnings just slip into a ski slope. That’s the one crappy thing about being a poker player, if I show up to work half-assed… I donate my bankroll off. Be happy you don’t have to pay your boss when you do half-assed work some days.
Life:
Nothing too new on the life front. I have really bored recently, and still need to pick up a new hobby. I have really fallen in love with guitar again, and have been learning a new song basically daily. I need to start graduating to some harder stuff however, I just keep playing acoustic songs that are fun to sing to like “If you could only see” by tonic and “All for you” by sister hazel (no homo). I am thinking about picking up some zepplin tunes and trying to nail down some sweet solos which I rarely have the patience to learn. Drums are coming along well too. I am about 20 beats through this DVD and starting to feel pretty good about my drumming skills. I think i’m above average now, but still totally suck and it definitely doesn’t come as naturally as it should when i’m rocking out.
I have also been working out a ton. I am starting to make progress however I’m still lifting puny weights by normal guy standards but you gotta start somewhere. Hopefully within a year, I’ll have changed my body from blah to awesome. Working out everyday should help that along.
here’s another kanye moment:
