Summers Out for…School

Hey all, to my 0-3 loyal readers

First off, to get poker out of the way, I played a disappointing 14,000 hands in August, So I guess 1000/hands a day since I got back.. I did well in those hands and ran about ~4k below expectation, which I can live with compared to some of my other months.

School is starting on the 2nd for me, and I wish I could say I was more excited but unfortunately I’m not . I’ve lost touch with alot of my friends from earlier years in University (my fault / not putting the effort in) but maybe I’ll put an effort into meeting a few new people in the Commerce program.. I really hope the courses are exciting otherwise this is going to be a very long, long year, with lots of different lifestyle changes.

I plan to bring more balance to my life now that school has begun, I highly doubt I’ll be able to play much Poker, so when I do play I’m going to make sure I try to play well but more importantly, leave my emotions on the table once I leave the table. I think this is the most important part for it to work, if it doesn’t I might have to take a break from Poker.. I don’t plan to play much higher then 10/20 when in School because I really don’t want to take the stress/downswings associated with it.

On the lighter side of life, Prison Break is starting up TONIGHT and I cannot wait. I’ve been rewatching part of the 1st season to get me back in the mood after it was on a hiatus for so long, and finally, in under 12 hours it will be back on T.V.

So not much has happened since my last update, I don’t really have any September Goals but to try to have lower variance for September/Start school off on the right foot.

GL to anyone reading.
