Not played a great deal of poker this month, due to being very busy in my Real life. My job is quite stressful as its a tough climate to be in Sales. There's days I am waking up and going into working feeling physically sick. It cant be good. But I gotta grind away at this job. I sell/design mid to high end kitchens/bathrooms/bedrooms/offices. And with the current recession going on, its pretty grim. But its funny, my job is very much like Poker. I have a basic wage but its pretty basic, I make my money by earning commission. So when your selling, times are good, and you are getting a nice fat pay cheque every month, but when times are hard, times are hard. Its like Variance in Poker. Very up and down. So just have to think more outside the box to succeed in my job.

During Feb I had moved up to NL25, and had a downer of 8 BI's. Some horrid bad beats. So I am back on NL10. So my goals this month;

- Beat NL10 again
- Make Silverstar VIP

Going to a Live Poker tourney this Monday, but apart from this, I wont be playing any Tournaments this month.

Oh and an interesting thing was, that I met a "Poker pro". heh. A friend of a friends, met in bar, turns out he played pretty high stakes. He had been traveling for past year and is getting back into the scene again. Also turns out he was one of the players that was in the tourney when the Cavandish place was Raided by the police few years back (http://uk.pokernews.com/news/2006/2/northern-ireland-poker.htm) Interestingly, he is going on Monday. Not seen any proof of this, and didint get his online aka. Will have to find out. Maybe he will do some coaching if he is any good.

Oh and Ireland > England in Rugby yesterday. Fuck yeah

Close game

Dont you get better vpps at silver star? I mean I should have had it in Feb, but wasnt able to do enough hands. So I think i should be able to do it this March without really aiming too, cuz I am just putting in more cash game hands in this month.
