Football Nasty

Last weekend I decided to go back to Tennessee to witness the Vols play the Gators. Bought some tickets and only stayed for 1 quarter because the blistering heat was melting me in the bleachers. I was disapointed because one of the main reasons I went was to enjoy the game atmosphere at the stadium but GG to that idea. Other than the game, the weekend was awesome. Got to see all my friends and it was complete obliteration. Monetary wise, it was not very good, but worth every penny. I will probably go back for the Alabama game because you don't always get the opportunity to see the #1 ranked team play.

On another note, the damn Longhorns lost today and I have never seen a more pathetic performance. I was embarrassed and actually took my jersey off and changed the channel. I don't even want to get started on them so I will stop there.

Poker has been great this month. Been playing FR Rush 100NL and 200NL and the results have been very encouraging. The graph is here and the heater at the end has been very refreshing. There was one little 5/10 tilt session but ended up getting it back. I don't know why I did it, but it was a lot of fun (ups). I am going to try and play some more tourneys, I've final tabled a couple small ones but got 7th in all of them so there were no big scores. I am just going to keep grinding these stakes because I am enjoying it and I don't have to put in many hours with Rush.

Next week I am going to Austin for work and coincidentally the Red River Shootout is next weekend. Looks like I will be going up to Dallas and praying for a Longhorn victory. It could be a potential Shipshape trip if people can make it up, but either way it will be lots of fun. I wish I had more stories but I feel like a boring person these days. Who knows, maybe next week there will be a months worth of stories for me to share. GG. Shipshape. I'll Pay You....You don't want me to get nasty!

NOLA trip

I promised I would keep writing so here I go. Well the entire shipshape crew went to New Orleans this past weekend and words can't describe what went on there. The group dynamic plus a casino and Bourbon St. just equaled absolute madness. Overall it was definitely one of the best trips I've been on and I was happy I got to fly home and not drive hungover like everyone else.

Poker wise, the Mini Ftops are upon us and I don't really think I will be playing many. Instead I staked some players in the series and hopefully we can all get some run good and bink multiple wins. I've been playing a decent amount of Rush this month and after starting a good amount in the hole I've been on a nice heater since then. You can see the nasty graph and I'm glad its going well since last month wasn't as profitable as I had hoped.

I'm going to Vegas this weekend with my parents and I guess I'll be taking them around to show them a good time. Hopefully I will grow a pair and finally buy that new watch I want, but I will probably chicken out and just keep looking at it. For the mean time, shipshape and get nasty.

Blog is Back!!!

Alrite, I know it has been forever seen I've written on this thing, but due to fact someone tried to hack my g-mail account to get to my FTP I did not have any access and I just have not had any time. I guess I'll fill everyone in on what has been going on since my last post. First off, work has been taking alot of my time up and there has not been much time for poker. I actually took a long break from online because playing online and trying to go to work is tough. I've mainly been playing live games in Atlantic City. I will go in more detail about live poker games with pictures and the whole 9 yards.

I moved into a pretty nice 1-bedroom apartment here in Maryland. I am about 20 miles outside of D.C. which isn't too bad, but I hate riding the metro to go out there. Sometimes I just feel so tired from work that I sit in and play Call of Duty all night.

For work I have traveled all over the U.S. the past couple of months. I've been in Jacksonville and Austin for over a month, Reno for a short period and I have many more trips planned in the near future. The work is good, but it's still work and puts a drain on you. When I was in Austin, it was almost 7 days a week for 40 days straight. That's tough for me aka the laziest person in the world. Enough about work, lets get into the poker part which is what this blog is supposed to be about.

Almost every 2 or 3 weeks I have been heading down to Atlantic City to play in the live games there. I've found this much more satisfying than playing online on the weekends because I get the full poker experience and I've had the opportunity to meet many other players just like me. I've been sticking to the $5/$10 no-limit deep stack games and been running really well.

I don't want to bore you with everything but the main thing is that the blog is back thanks to Rivermeplz motivating me to get back into it. O and did I mention....NOLA this weekend....ups
