Happy Birthday to me..

Well on Wed it was my 22nd birthday and man do I ever feel old. I remember when someone asked me how old I was I thought I was 21 for some weird reason, I never pictured myself ever becoming 22 ever...

I ended up watching Transformers 2 on Wed and the line was ridiculous... heres a picture of the lineup:



When Amy and I got to the theatre (it wasnt opened yet) there was a massive line up just to go in! It was pretty ridiuclous and it took like 15 minutes just so everyone could buy their tickets. I heard that buying the tickets online were completely sold out and when we got in practically all the showing times were sold out too, and the theatre just opened! it was pretty crazy. Good thing we got our tickets online a few days before!! The movie was actually really good, I liked it a lot despite what movie critics/reviews say. It was similar to the first one, but with a lot more funny/cheesy lines and 10x more special effects. I have no idea why the movie review for this movie was so low, probably because there really was not that much acting and a lot of special effects.

I also got a new 27" Samsung Syncmaster 275T for my birthday! This monitor is absolutely PIMP!!!!!! Now I dont have to have a bunch of tables crammed on my 22" which hurt my eyes. The coolest part about this monitor is that it doubles as a TV! I hooked up my xbox directly into the monitor and now whenever I wanna play xbox it is right beside me!!!! It's the coolest thing ever!

Anyways, since June is practically over I am going to wrap it up on a very good note. I am finishing June on Lock +2.5kish (so far) at 100nl over 20k hands. I didnt play much at all this month but hopefully I can log more hands next month.

What's going on with me

Its been a super long time since my last update, but basically I've been really busy w/ school the last little while and havn't really had that much time to blog. In addition, May turned out to be a pretty crappy month and I ended -1.1K mostly from playing bad. After a lot of thought I decided to stop mass multi tabling and begin to work on my game from the bottom up again. Ever since I moved to stars all I did was mass multi table to a point where my game just deteriorated so much and I was more concerned about making fast decisions as opposed to good decisions. I dropped down to 100NL and I am going to rebuild my game and come back bigger and better.

So anyway, my first plan is to get one of the best 200NL players on FTP to rework my game. In June I started coaching sesh's with Kush789 and all I can say is I am very glad I did. We set up a shared percentage profit coaching deal and I have been playing on Lock Poker (on the Cake network) since then. The first thing we fixed up was loosening me up! I have been trying to loosen my stats up for a long time now without much success, however voila I now run 17/14ish! Always a good feeling.. I am actually really glad I decided to drop down and rework my game because it turns out there is a lot of small leaks that I needed to plug, which so far consists of some preflop leaks in marginal spots. In addition were gonna be working on imporving my post flop player especially in 3bet pots which is something that I have a lot of trouble dealing with. I am confident that after this I will look back at my old 12/10 style and see how much progress I've made.

Anyways, last week was my first week of playing on Lock. It was a very big first week and I incorporated everything that Kush has been telling me and the results really showed that. I played 10.3K hands at 100NL and ended up +1.3K. It was the first winning week I've had in a very long time and I was definitely super happy.

That's all for now!
