today was the first day of my challenge (as mentioned in last post) and started off pretty well. i played for about 3 hours, so i felt pretty good. i ran great, no complains. but i can def tell that my v-betting has been improving tremendously. increased hand reading not only lets you know when you're beat but more importantly lets you bet accordingly to get thinner v-bets.
anyway i reflected upon my life as it's career fair here @ uf and am pretty pissed with myself. i pretty much got a worthless degree and am somewhat resentful towards uf for even offering such a major. i feel swindled to be quite frank. i really wish i had tried harder in college but imagine every human being goes through this.
i've been thinking about what i wanted to do with my life since graduation (may-ish) and have been waiting tables and sitting on my ass for a long time. i guess it's kinda like those high school summer breaks. where i stayed home for like 10 straight days and slept/eat/tv did absolutely nothing. u get so sick and bored to the point where you go out and get shit done (like getting a job, making money, partying). i feel the same way now. i'm so sick of having such a bleak future and am ready to do something about it. after thinking about it for a really long time, i think i want to go to law school. i hear it opens up alot of opportunity and that's something i wanna have.
while were talking about colleges here is a small list of useful degrees in no particular order:
electrical engineering (any engineering in general is a nice degree and is much more versatile than i thought because it's intertwined with business these days)
pre-pharm/pre-health
finance/accounting
main point though is to try hard because that really does leave all doors open in w/e degree you choose.
running about 12 bi below e.v. nothing terrible you don't have to tell me. small sample size. ok you're right.
been working part time waiting tables while finding my kid brother a foster home. it should be finished by the end of this week. been getting really tired of my part time job waiting tables at a Vietnamese restaurant. I guess life is getting pretty serious for me and really fast. Been going through some pretty bad mood swings/depression concerning my p.o.s future.
I've never really played poker "full timE" and only really play like 50-60 hours a month tops. But I guess to force myself to play more I'm gonna issue a last 30 day challenge. My goal is to avg 1 buy in every day (lol, semi-pathetic). I play nl100 so it should be fine and amount to 3K. I work about 30 hours a week and will also be finalizing some details with my kid brother and foster care.
Anyway if i can't win a measly buy in/day I think I should just quit poker and go back to school or find a different path to success.
Although good luck to me, my heart feels benevolence to everyone. so good luck everyone.
does anyone know if there are decent not so expensive driving schools to learn drifting and stufF?
and before i get flamed for being a poser, or w/e it's just something i like and a hobby i wish to pursue. people spend money on golf and stuff, so i don't see why spending money on cars is any different.
i didn't realize it till a few days ago, but i've become extremely complacent with my poker progress. tt has lp in an interesting craze kinda reminds me of willy wonka's chocolate factory where everyone is trying to get the gold ticket, and kinda made me think of Lottery Ticket (which is gonna be awesome).
anyway i've come to realize taht hand goals and daily hour goals are all kinda dumb, at least for me. instead my only goal is going to be playing better poker and reaching a new goal of perfect poker.
i'm prob gonna start posting a lot of hands and would love all and any feedback in the future.
if i upgrade from 22-27 inch with same resolution there is no advantage in multitabling right? the same amount of tables will fit? hardly an upgrade? pixels are just biggeR?
