Could I really be a 2-7 prodigy?

I decided on a whim tonight to play a 2-7 tourney and played pretty well and actually won that fucking thing. Hell yes, that is 6 buy ins at my current level. Screen shot provided. Anyway, off to bed, until later.

kind of a large update

A lot has been going on with work and poker and Kung Fu so I haven't been posting much. I am going to put a lot in here I think.

I almost got a new car the yesterday, I had been talking to a car guy about getting a 2003 Nissan Altima 3.5 SER. It is a very sweet car and I really want it. I decided to not get it, the rate is really high and the bank said that they were going to charge me an extra $2k. I am going to wait and try to find a better deal I think. I am getting a decently large commission check at the end of this month I might just hoard that and try to get a better deal.

The other day these two customers almost got into a fight inside the store, I was hoping it would have happened but it didn't. One was a big guy and the other guys was just a big mouth who didn't even have any reason to jump into the conversation. I was really hoping to see the big mouth guy get crushed.

Work has been going well but I am really tired of being the floater. I don't really ever know where I am going to be or what I am going to be working. I really cant wait for my year to be up I will then take a hard look and see what I want to do. What avenue I want to take with the company or possibly going some place else.

I got the word from Sifu today during the test that I was helping out at that I will be testing on November 15th. I am really pumped and cant wait, I have been at this level for awhile and I think I am ready to move up and learn some new stuff. I am have been thinking about certain things and really trying to work on the small stuff. It is the small stuff in Kung Fu that will really make you better.

Poker this month has been decent. I have played a lot of hands and am winning for the month over a semi large sample of hands at least for me. Last night I decided to play and got stuck early when my AA got cracked by QJ on a QJ4 flop. I wound up like 9 buy ins stuck, but I buckled down tightened up and made it all the way back up to win a buy in. My win rate went way down after the session last night but I am still up almost 5 buy ins for the month.

I think that is pretty much it. Until later.

Birthday post and other stuff.

I have really been slacking off on this thing, my last post was August 30th. Today was my birthday, I am now 28 years old. I am very close to 30 and I am not quite sure how I feel about that. I have given a lot of shit to other people who turned 30, I know that it will be a pretty vicious turn around.

I luckily had the day off today and tomorrow for my birthday. Melissa was also off so this morning she made me an awesome breakfast skillet smorgasbord. Eggs, sausage, potatoes, and all other stuff, it was AMAZING. I slept in till about noon got up and had my bad ass breakfast, we had a bunch of stuff to do today so we were kind of rushing around all day. We have tomorrow off together as well so we can just relax and take it easy.

We went to the Apple store to get some stuff for our Iphones, that is right I said it, Iphones. I got Melissa and I both one on Monday. I took my number from T-mobile and it was still under contract so I had to start a new number to finish out my contract. I am going to let Kate pay the bill so that way she can have a decent service instead of shitty MetroPCS.

Myra's birthday is next week so we went ahead and got her present today and gave it to her when I gave Kate my old phone. We got her one of those small bikes, it has all the Disney princesses on it. She loved it. I have photos on my phone and I will post them later. She is such an awesome little girl and Kate is doing such an amazing job.



The Apple store in this area is pretty new and today was my first time to go to it. I would love to have a mac but they are overpriced and I just can't justify the money spent on it. I am still very happy with my thinkpad, it will be awhile before I have to buy a new laptop.

Tonight the Avett Brothers played a show at the Granada Theater and it was amazing. I brought some friends to the show and they loved it. Honestly it wasn't as good this time as it was last time. The sound was a little off but we were off to the side as opposed to being dead on so that might have something to do with it. Also the one of the brothers Seth was having some issued with his voice. It was still amazing and was over much to soon. They are hands down my favorite band right now and it is weird because they don't really seem like something I would like.

Poker update: Nothing much has been ging on I have been putting in a lot of hands and I think I am making up a lot of ground. Hopefully soon I will be able to move up to the next level. It is too early to tell though.

That is it for now, I will work on being more consistent.

Until later.
