This post is probably going to be somewhat long thanks to a lot of adderol, valium, and pot. Ill show my progress this year so far and discuss the results so far. Ill also talk about my goals for March. Ill probably talk about some school and fraternity stuff. Lastly ill post some youtube vids of my latest favorite jams, as well as a shout out to my compadre joeyp.

This year has been pretty good as far as poker is concerned, or at least my results have been good. The only bad thing about the year so far is my lack of grinding. Overall I feel I was running pretty well, but also played pretty well. I have been on a 10 buyin downer the last 6k hands, but I am not too worried. If I drop ~5 buyins more, I will most likely grind 50NL for awhile to maintain sanity. I will likely move up once I make 5k more, and cash out 1k of that to my savings acct. Here are screenshots of Jan+Feb:

Lately I have been trying to talk poker more with people I know from 100/200 nl to help me plug any leaks I may have (pm me if you dont have my AIM and want to talk shop). I am also going to try to create a video (or a few for that matter) to have people critique. I may start looking into coaching, for a few sessions at least (if you know anyone good/cheap, pm me). I also am considering signing up for bluefirepoker since jman is like my hero. As far as cardrunners and leggopoker go, who are you guys' favorite 100-400NL pros?

School has been going ok so far. I am definitely not trying as hard as I should be, but I should at least nail a 3.0 this semester. My Psychology internship has been pretty fun so far. Its really cool working with professors and grad students away from the classroom. I have to give an IQ test in compilation with the experiment, and being curious of my own intelligence, I had a grad student give me the test. To my surprise, I scored a 131, which I guess is pretty awesome? I guess I havent killed that many braincells yet

The fraternity has been pretty bleh lately. Next year is our chapters 60th anniversary, so we are really trying to be the best we can over the next year in hopes of recieving some financial gifts from out alumni. Once this semester ends, I will be stepping down from Director of Academic Affairs, and will be taking over as Treasurer. I was Treasurer my first year here and it royally sucked. Despite my distaste for the position, I am going to be running for President 2010/2011 and need to learn all the financial changes that have occurred since I was last Treasurer. This should make the transition fairly easy as I already know and understand most aspects of the fraternity. 2010/2011 will be my last year as an undergrad, and I am actually going to stretch my last 18-21 credits across 2 semesters. I want to make sure we continue the progress we've made over the past semester.

There was one major incident in the fraternity when our deaf member (he has a cochlear implant so dont feel too bad yet) sent a text to national headquarters instead of his friend whos name was next in his contacts. What did this text contain you may ask? It stated "Yo, u kno where I can get keg, need good deal!", followed by "Oops wrong person LOL!" once he realized his mistake. No one has any idea why he was even looking for a keg in the first place. After the incident, chaos insued after national's response. Rumors and speculations pertaining to the future of our chapter. It was definitely a pain in the ass worrying about a Phonarch coming through and possibly crippling the chapter via expulsions and social punishments, but in the end everything was fine and no punishments were given.

Other than everything I have stated above, I have simply been living the dream, enjoying an arsenal of friends, women, music, booze, and drugs. Speaking of music, I wanted to talk about some of my latest favorites. Most of the songs arent new, so save the "thats so 1999" comments.

First ill start with who is definitely my favorite lyricist of all time. I chose not to say "rapper" due to the fact that his words and message are brilliantly put together. He does not rap about your typical hood bullshit, which I really admire. He goes by the name of, Lupe Fiasco. My favorite songs as of late are the following:

Dumb it Down - This is a great example of how he differs from the rest of the rap industry

Daydreamin' - Oldie but goodie

American Terrorist - severely underrated song

Put You On Game - Lupe's darkest song imo

Lil' Wyte - Doubt Me Now - As far as straight rap goes, I have really been loving this song lately. Its one of those songs that makes you feel like a b.a.m.f.
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JNQ96bqhzro&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JNQ96bqhzro&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Explosions in the Sky - Your Hand in Mine - One of my all time favorite songs, its so sick I cant even describe it.
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/36U4ez7AzKA&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/36U4ez7AzKA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

 AFI - Death of Seasons Big change of pace lol, I really like AFI a ton, and this song is one of my favorites by them.

Lastly, I wanna give a shoutout to my homie JoeyP. Hes an awesome dude, and a genius when it comes to music. He rocked out last night for a bunch of us at a party and everyone was mesmerized. Here is his website, as well as a live performance of his song "Hydrogen." Biggie ups compadre

Until next time, keep on keepin' on

P.S. I am currently looking for a new laptop for poker. Screen reso must be 1920/1200, and it must have a 7200 or 10k rpm HD(dont think anyone makes 10k's for laptops tbh.) Other than that, it does not really matter to me. Obviously the cheaper the better. Please ship some suggestions, thanks

i dedicate this one right here to all my homies out there grinding.
lupe and ludacris were at my school last week, but i couldnt score tickets :/

my spring break is coming up, i'd be up for swapping some sweat sessions if youre interested. currently recovering from a shitty shitty february (like 3.5k below expectation), playing a mix of 100nl and 200nl on stars.

keep on living the dream imo

Goals for March and April are 40k hands/month. If I run ok, I should be taking NL400 shots by May :D. Thats only ~2.5 hrs/day 6 tabling (giving myself some leeway as far as getting games going). I actually went through and summed all the hands/hr for 100 and 200nl, then divided by the total # of tables to get hourly hand averages.
