Poker has been a real roller coaster for me lately, but right now I'm on top. I have cashed out 10k from pokerstars since the beginning of 08 and I have a healthy bankroll. What's really saved my ass is my ability to start off with a small bankroll (ie: $200 like I did last night) and increase it 10 fold by playing hu with someone who has a ridiculous amount of money compared to the limit he's playing (ie: $700 on a .5/1 table) and just taking it all from him. It would be nice if I could just do this every time, but lately, I pretty much have, so I'm not going to complain. But enough about poker, let's talk about my life a little bit... I've been sick for about a week (special thanks to ierdna and draks bg) but I'm feeling good now. Unfortunately I have to continue taking antibiotics so I can't drink. That's okay though because I have a big Tres es Rey match on Saturday so I'm just gonna save myself till then and hopefully tear it up. School is kind of fucking me right now, but I'm going to try to pull out a 3.25 gpa. I think I can do it, but just in case I don't I'm probably gonna use my training money now and play a chess tournament in cancun over spring break with my friend (Happypoto). This is actually really convenient because I was planning on going to Mexico the next week anyway with my family, so now I can just stay there. Dallas can be really boring some times so it should be nice to get away. ...back to poker: I have had such huge swings lately (ie: 1000+ in one day) so I think I am going to stick mainly with .5/1 hu and continue my strategy of finding ppl with way too much money. As long as I am on a hot streak though, I reserve the right to move up.
