Small Rebound
July 20th, 2010 Posted in PokerI took quite a few days off but I played a session today and finally had a winning day! woot woot! I’m still 6 buy-ins or something below EV for the month but it felt awesome to run good for a change.
I’m definitely still improving too, which feels nice. Each session I pick up on a couple more things. And only playing 9 tables at a time is definitely helping me.
I’ve played 25.8k hands this month and I’m shooting for 40k which I should do fairly easily. And depending on how the rest of the month goes I may take a shot at 50NL or I may just stay put until I’m crushing 25nl through a larger sample size and while playing more tables. I really feel like watching Verneer’s climbing micro mountain series could help me plug a bunch of leaks but I’m too cheap to pay for a membership when I’ll get one for free after this month.
I’m really not sure about what to do about my eyes either. I can’t play for longer than about 3 hours because looking at the computer screen for that long puts so much effing strain on my eyes. *brag* I have excellent vision too, better than 20/20. ~20/13 vision meaning I can see at 20 feet what a person with 20/20 needs to be 13 feet away to see */brag*. Could I possibly be causing long term damage to my eyes?
My girlfriend and I saw Toy Story 3 over the weekend and we both loved it. We were both crying by the end. Those Pixar guys are amazing. I watched that special on msnbc or cnbc a couple weeks ago about Pixar and it was pretty incredible how they got it so right on their first try in a media that had never been done before. Toy Story was their first full length film and it was a home run! Nay, a grand slam!
I’m also hearing some incredible stuff about inception that’s peaked my interest. It’s supposed to be “mind blowing”. I’ll definitely have to check it out.
