I like keeping the FTR blogs alive and kicking, so just writing a post to let you know what I'm up to (as if you care, right).
What am I doing? Not much. Shortly after I wrote my last post, I played a few 6 max sessions and lost a lot of money. I figured it was only fair though because I had run really nicely for the first few hundred hands I played and it had to even out sometime
Still, who likes losing money ...
Haven't really played since then because of school. We had a big snow storm in Vancouver this past Sunday/Monday (first time it's snowed in November here for like 20 years! ) and I had a final lab exam postponed to this Friday. Since I wasn't ready for that exam at all (I was probably gonna fail it), I figured I should use the extra time I've been given and have since been studying like mad.
I did play some poker on Monday night after a day of studying. I considered playing cash but then I decided not to because I just wanted to play for fun for a bit and relax for a while. I decided to play just one MTT, so I played the $5k on AP; my theory was that I would bust after one to two hours and then I could go back to studying. It didn't work according to plan, I had some really nice hands hold up, I sucked out at the final table, and ended up placing third. Actually really disappointed in third 'cause the money sucks so much more than first and second, but if I don't think of it that way, an extra $600 is kinda nice
Next week I have more final exams, so I won't really be playing anything relevent until the week after. It sucks because all I really wanna do is have some free time to play poker. Ohh well.
Good luck to those with finals.
