Hey there LP
Been a while since I wrote in this here blog - it's been a busy summer, so here's an update:
Non-poker stuff
Done a bunch of traveling this summer. Here's where:
- Utah - climbing in the La Sal Mountains and went riding in Moab.
- Washington DC - friend's wedding
- Colorado - climbing in the Denver area, and climbed Crestone Needle at 14,000+ feet elevation.
- Wisconsin - family vacation on a lake.
teh pokahzzz
Poker has been going really well. I had a sick downswing last spring which was a combination of a horrible tilt-induced failed shot at 600nl and...a drunkament (what else?). Then, I cashed out $4k from my significantly diminished roll to live on like the baller that I am. So, I have done some rebuilding this summer - BUT, I feel like I am playing my best poker ever. I have been playing both short-handed and full ring games, and for the first time ever I feel comfortable in both, which is nice.
hrm, goals?
I just started playing 400nl again recently. I think the game is noticeably harder than 1/2, but still very beatable, especially on weekends and stuff when the fish are out. Anyway, my plan is to stay here for a while and try to double my roll and then.........try to figure out that weird game where you get 4 cards. So, if anybody has really good ideas for how to learn PLO please ship them my way. Otherwise...just watch for me and take my monies when I start, cuz that game is so confusing compared to NLH. But w/e, should be a fun learning experience.
In other news, I successfully made enough FPP this summer to get a TV and another monitor from PS, so ship the electronics my way. I've been playing more this summer than ever before, which is awesome. Here's a graph of the last two months. This is mostly 100nl and 200nl, with some 50nl and 2/4 as well.

lol, I also recently had this happen - it was pretty goofy: http://www.liquidpoker.net/informatio...ation_definitely_worth_a_mention.html . In other news, I'm about to move to Eugene, Oregon. Any LPers from that area?
Oh, one last thing. I've got to say - railing myth at the Sunday Million final table was about the most fun I've ever had watching somebody play poker. All of you railbirds were just INSANE and hilarious - I was sitting there just laughing my ass off. My roommates would walk by and be like "what's so funny?", but I couldn't really explain it. Anyway, props to y'all for making LP the sweetest poker community out there - it is seriously kick-ass, and the FT railing was a perfect demonstration of the dedication, hilarity, and insanity that makes it so awesome. Cheers!
