We Used To Vacation

What it do?

January has been a roller coaster ride for me. I started the month on my biggest downswing ever. Since then I’ve almost completely recovered, and knock on wood, i’ll be back in the black in just a couple days.

I did a couple sweat sessions with my main man GrantKropf, who is a wicked good poker pro who lets me chat it up with him. We both had been struggling with a bit of runbad, so it was good for both of us to discuss situations and hands and be like ‘ya, that makes sense’ or ‘whoa, what, you’d do what there?’ and then hash it out.

I played my biggest pot ever in a HUPLO match, the hand is at the bottom. This villain was super aggro from the BB and 3bet a lot. I ended up getting crushed against him when i lost another 450bb flip on the flop… also posted.

I saw Avatar earlier this week, and I can saw without reservation that it was the most visually stunning movie I’ve ever seen. I would have loved to seen it in IMAX, but i had to settle for 3D, but also awesome. If you haven’t seen it, I think you should.

Not a lot else of import to discuss, i dont think.
