I haven’t played above 2/4 in a couple weeks now and the results that I’ve had at .50/1.00 and 1/2 have been spectacular.  This week I earned ~3,300 and have earned ~6,500 in the last 3 weeks.  Hopefully, I’m able to continue grinding these limits and resist temptation and not play any higher.  Hailey and I are going on a cruise this weekend, so I’ll be playing a lot from now until Thursday evening.  Tomorrow we’re going to dinner with Jerry and Jolean (sp?) and Hailey will be sweating me a little at either 5/10 or 10/20.  Hopefully, she’s not completely bored.  I should play 5/10, because I hate going into a vacation after having a bad week at the tables and probably shouldn’t risk that happening.  The 5/10 is amazing anyways and is very profitable and obv worth playing.

I’ve also been sweating SpaceGravy’s prop bet.  I declined to bet until a couple days into the wager.  I wagered 2,000.   I sensed that this was going to be much more difficult than he had thought and wagered 1,500 v. 1,000 against McShove and bugstud.  After 4.5 days, SG is +15 after 2,316 games played.  His prop bet is to earn 40,000 in 30 days playing only $60 SNGs.  At this point, I’m certainly a favorite, but it’d also be very painful if he ended up coming out ahead.  He’s a phenomenal player.  I lost 2,000 last time around when he demolished a prop bet to earn 25,000 in 30 days.  That was playing only STTs.  In this prop bet, he’s permitted to play STTs, 18s, 45s and 90s.

For now, I’m going to sip on a few Coors Lights and sweat DubbleStuff, a friend from high school, at the final table of the $55 (70) on Stars.  Glgl Ali!

Although it’s not that wet outside, the few drops that I heard from my bed were enough to keep me from going to school today.  This will be the first day of school that I’ll miss this semester and obv won’t be the last.

I’ve gotten into a really good groove on Poker.com and have beaten 1/2 and a little .50/1.00 for a shy north of 3,200 this month.  Yesterday alone I beat it for about 2,000 across three spot session.  In the last session, I was down 700 fairly quickly, but I was able to grind it into a 850 winner.  I played this session alongside the FTOPS.  I played the tournament very well until I got crippled a couple tables out of the money after I reshipped w/ A7hh after a player with a chip stack slightly less than myself raise/called with 99 from the hijack.  He turned a full house and left me with less than a big blind.  I went broke the next hand when I called ai from the button with Q6cc.  I was hoping that the small blind had the fold button already clicked, but he didn’t.  I actually had the best hand until the sb rivered a flush.  In retrospect, I should have used the time bank, folded till we were in the money and then hope for a miracle.

Nick and I are going to grind the day away over here.  He’s going to head back to Kansas tomorrow.  I’m probably going to Commerce after I drop him off at the airport.  A lot of my friends are in town and I’m craving to play a little too.  Hopefully, I’m disciplined enough to stick with the online regiment that I’m done so well with this year.  I didn’t play until after the first half of January on Poker.com and have managed a 6,200 winner thus far.
