Ah, I day off

After last nights pretty mediocre session, both in how well I played and results (broke even), I decided to take the day off to relax. I put in plenty of volume fighting back to even, so it was sort of deserved. Went and saw "Red Riding Hood", dear god was it hideous. I'm guessing they filmed it in about 2 weeks, I wonder what the editors were thinking when they cut the actual film. Probably something like "nothing can save this, so why even try". No big deal, was good to get out of the house and hang out with my girlfriend Danni. Definitely need to start going to the gym again though. My whole "I was an athlete for 5 years I deserve a break" excuse has definitely run out. So it's time. Anyways back to work tomorrow, GL everyone.

Mission Complete

Finished off the last of my downswing today! Pretty psyched, got a tiny bit greedy playing some really bad players and lost 2 buyins at the end JJ < KJ obv. Still in an awesome mood regardless. Excited to watch the Celtics game tonight, even if its just Charlotte. So close to getting Shaq/JO back, hopefully all of this anticipation isn't spoiled by them sucking when they actually do get back. Good luck everyone!

Recovering Nicely

Pretty psyched about this recovery. Had an extremely tough day today, played a ton which is awesome. Ended up playing 74 games for +545, yesterday I made 920 off of 36 games. Overall I'm back ahead of 30 games a day pace (300,000vpps for the year). After some money made for coaching and the last 2 days, I'm only down about 1k of the 3k downswing I endured with out counting the fpp's I've garnered through out this endeavor. Pretty happy with how I'm playing, hopefully I can take care of the rest over the next day or two. Good luck everyone!

Birthday Downswing!

Sighhhhh! On a little 2300ish downswing from my birthday...LAME. First one of the year though, so I really can't complain...maybe about the timing lol. Anyways, working on recovering it now. Depending on whether or not it goes well, I might cash my fpp's for $1500 to ease the pain. It's not that I need the money, but it helps me mentally when I erase debts. Anyways, gl everyone!

Happy Saint Patricks Day!

Had a hard time getting out of bed this morning (afternoon) for some reason. Was able to eventually crawl out and get in a quick session before I meet my girlfriend for a celebratory drink. Went 7-2 for +505, no one that I played seemed drunk though, except maybe the one 230 I played. Was hoping for easier games :). Still, was able to play well unlike the beginning of yesterday where I quickly dropped 1k. Luckily I focused myself and looked at it as a challenge rather then an annoyance. Cut it to 500 then took a break to eat, came back and finished it off. Then on top of that, played a night session and went 5-1 for a +440 profit for the night overall. Enjoying the fact that I haven't had to deal with any significant downswings yet this year, but I'm always prepared. It's pretty impossible to avoid throughout an entire year. Anyways, have fun tonight everyone and be safe.

Grindddd

Turned out to be a great day, definitely took some work though. Ended tonight going 24-16 with 2 chops (split) for a profit of +785. Pretty psyched about how consistent things have been. While I'm always tempted to play higher, I have some small goals I'd like to reach before I do anything out of the ordinary. Good luck to everyone. -maxv2

Visitors and some fun events

So my girlfriend had a couple friends up from home the last couple days, and I had a friend up from UMaine. Was a really fun time overall, I was even able to squeeze in a decent amount of poker as everyone was pretty respectful of my job. We showed them around the area (mostly Delray because the actual surround area of our neighborhood is boring). We also went canoeing at this place in the everglades and hung out with some Alligators. Here's some photos.

Wake up and start fresh

Last night I just got destroyed. Not terribly as far as $$$ goes, but definitely took a soul beating. I played 78 games going 38-40 for -610, everytime I got anything going I'd lose a succession of coin flips and be right back in the hole. Eventually I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer and decided I'd try and make back my losses in an early session and play another one later in the day to try and make a profit. Pretty hilarious that last night that -610 meant so much to and in literally 40 minutes I woke up and went 6-0 to cover the losses completely. Just goes to show, sometimes you just need to get some rest and go at it again the next day. Going to take a break for quite a bit and get myself ready for a session later tonight. Good luck everyone.

Great day

Ended up going 21-10 for +1055. Glad I got in 30 games...and of course happy with the result. Still have a lot of catching up to do this month however, haven't put in nearly enough volume. Hopefully everyone else is running well too, gl all.

King of fish!

Love starting off a session playing mostly regulars...losing to all of them like a retard...then going 8-0 against straight fish to get back over even. Definitely feel like I need to work on my play against regs, today was badddd. Anyways, final stats 13-11 (3 chops for -110 on sharkscope) for a total of +85. Nice!
