Update

Played really bad the last few days, but ended up ok. Started playing badly today but I really got back in the zone in the last 110 against RiceStud. He won 2 virtual flips to end up winning the game, but I feel I dominated the match in every way and was playing my A game.

I played a 4 man 3300 FPP sat to the Sunday Mil. Wow is that a value, I ended up losing the second match but the competition was ridiculously bad. Here are the two major hands from my experience in this.

After this the guy let me blind him out for 2 hands or whatever, and the two games ended up going 11 hands total (including the 2 "sitting out" hands). Not bad timewise, just horrible players that love to gamble in these. If you decide to play these after reading my blog, please do not sit with me in them, I would prefer to keep playing these kind of guys.

Here's the hand I lost on, this guy was pretty horrible and was donk-overbetting flops often from what I saw (I caught the 20ish hand match he played against the player before) with weak hands. Definitely think I'm ahead of his range as it is mostly made up of 2-3rd pairs and overcards.

So I will continue to play these to help boost my bankroll and my "rakeback" from these vpps. Definitely happy they are here.

Gf's dad is back in town, so playing will be rough the next few days. Usually it takes a few days for him to really annoy me (us), but he's only staying until Sunday morning so I should be fine.

Saw the new Showtime show Californiacation the other day. Great potential, David Ducheveny or whatever from X-Files is the main actor and I really enjoyed the premiere. Some other shows I've been watching lately are Flight of the Concords and a staple since season 1, Entourage. A lot of people seem to think Entourage has gone downhill, but I disagree for the most part. I really love season 1 of Entourage, and I disliked the whole Mandy Moore thing in season 2. Season 3 was average, but so far I think Season 4 has been better than 3. I could probably summarize those last 4 sentences in like 5 words, but basically I do not think it is any worse than it was the last two seasons, it might even be better.

Last but certainly not least, the husng.com coaching site is nearing completion and almost ready to open. Lots of good stuff to go along with that, I'm currently messing around with the test server that the site is on and organizing video creators so that we have a good collection of videos for the opening. Registration is free for the site and we're going to kick it off with a few free videos for players that register with the site. Also going to do a freeroll for a free month membership. More on that later.

Bankroll $3,783.57
Goal by the 19th = $6100
