So I have been playing a lot of hands, probably about 8kish hands since we last chatted, I had a great run at SHLE and it is very fun, but the swings are brutal. Until I can get my bankroll up to a comfortable level I am done with it. It is amazing how much rakeback you can earn playing it though. I mean you could make a fortune just in rakeback from playing it, but it makes you want to slit your wrists seriously.

called me down with a pair of sixes and then hits the two outer, but this is the norm people will call down with any pair heads up in a pot. It is great, the only problem is you are pushing much smaller edges in limit than you are in No Limit so the variance is much much higher. My bankroll is still in building mode so I am going to have to give this game up until I can get some more money together, to be quite honest NL is a much easier way of making money. So I think I am just going to stick with that, SHLE has a serious gambling aspect to it, it is an action game...
I have found also that it is so much easier to tilt in limit than it is in NL. When someone pushes you have to call off all of your chips it is much different than when you just have to call one more bet. And in SH those bets add up FAST!! So for now we are done with SH, it was a nice break from NL but I can't afford to learn a game like that right now.
NL is going good I am up about $150 after starting off the month with a rather large downswing, Since I was playing a lot of short handed limit, I only have 8k hands of NL played, and with all the limit action I am down about $77 dollars, so if I had played NL for that many hand I probably would have about $300 dollar month thus far. Which would have been nice but I needed a change for a little while.
Anywho I am coming closer and closer to finally finishing the bonus at Doyles room, I am not sure if I am going to leave doyles room, the games seem to be a lot softer than Pokerstars or on Fulltilt, I am going to get some money back on Fulltilt so that I can play some more stud, I have always rocked at that game, and it is a big money maker/ rakeback maker.
I think I am going to try to get people to come and play poker games at my place as well. If I can get a few people that want to have there home games at my place once a week I think I can make enough money doing that. If that is the case I think I will be done at Circles shortly. I really just can't stand that place and now that I have a way to make that extra money I will be all set. If I can get 36 hours worth of business in a week than I can make just as much money as I would at Circles. Anywho that is what I am thinking, I really should post something on FCP but I want to wait things out a little bit.
Anywho I should get out of here somehow I killed about 30 minutes writting this thing. So far I am up about $250 this month including rake back, I think by Valentines day I am going to be done the bonus. I might just cash most of that out and get everything paid up and then start over once again. Only time will tell.....

Wowza
I have been on quite the roller coaster over the last few days. I have played 4353 hands and I have made $87 dollars in play, another $25 in rake back and I am up to 40854 action points for my bonus only another 121k to go and I will be in the money.
My play has been pretty good but I made two big calls that have cost me a lot of money. I think I made these calls too because they came after I lost a big pot on a bad beat. I am going to try to post many of the huge hands lets dig though poker tracker and see what we have.
One good thing about this run is I have yet to lose with aces. I have gotten them 17 times and I have won every one of them.

SON OF A BIATCH!!!!!!
god I hate set over set.
So yea going well.... I think I am going to keep plugging along, I would post a graph (I am sure it would be sick) but the graphing program isn't working properly since I converted my database to PostSQL. I am going to have to figure that out now. All in all i am just glad to be up on the bastards. I think this week is going to be poker table week as well as new aquarium for Krik as well. So it should be a good week. I think my mom might be coming down to bring the rest of my Christmas gifts.
Anywho I gotta go do laundry then take money from the fish.
PS also Kyle and I have been consistently working out. Maybe I will have that Bowflex body after all.

A few different things going on in my life
Alright so first things first, poker is going well. I have cleared another 1715 action points today. I also added $50 beans to the roll. Also generated a few dollars in rake back. All in all a good day.
As for money. I am trying to save money. I have a serious problem with spending it and I don't really have a ton to spend. One way in which I have been saving money is no not eat out. I did break this rule a few times but I have been much better lately. My friend Kyle has a great system for saving money, some people like to save change well Kyle saves dollar bills, he actually never spends them. This also comes with an interesting little point, in order to purchase something I am going to have to spend at least $5.00. Anywho I have $17 dollars in the dollar bill fund. I think I am going to save the money up until I have $300 dollars and then take it down to Foxwoods and try my luck.
As for losing weight. That front isn't going so well... as soon as the diet book arrives we are going to start that. I have been working out with Kyle probably 2-3 times a week, we are going to try to step that up.
Goodnight all
