Well I totally blow at poker. I just can't focus, and don't even try to focus. I get way too preoccupied doing other things. I barely played over the weekend because I was busy with other things, but today was a waste of time. I played some tournaments I wasn't rolled for, and then I played some cash in a complete haze.

I decided to 4-table to try to focus on the tables, but then I'd just open up the internet my other monitor and go on facebook, play stupid games on 2p2, and do other pointless stuff.

Next time I play poker I'm turning off my 2nd monitor. I've also decided I'm not going to play until I watch at least 5 videos, and make a serious bankroll plan. I love tournaments, but I don't think I'm profitable in them. I mean all it takes is one big score, and I've got close, but I always seem to fall just short. I think I'll make some sort of tournament schedule that I'll stick to. Or reward myself by allowing me to play in x buy-in tournament given that I do y amount of hands. Either way, I need to figure out a bankroll plan and stick to it. Even if it's not super strict, I need some sort of guideline, because right now I'm all over the place.

I think I need to workout or run first thing in the morning. This should get me feeling good for the rest of the day and feel mentally alert rather than in a daze all day. Today I woke up and was in my pajamas the entire day until 930pm when my friend called and we went out for a pint. I even blew off some chic that I met on the dating site I mentioned in my previous post because I felt like crap and didn't want to meet her for the first time in such a state of disarray. I told her I was taking care of my little cousins tonight, lol.

She looks smoking hot though and we're going to go out tomorrow. I don't know what we'll do yet, but hopefully it's fun. I haven't gone out on a date in a while. I'd say I'm about 70% excited, 30% anxious. Here's a pic of her, she's hot.


I put a video up in Members Videos section of the forums. It's about 45 minutes of me playing 50NL at Stars. There's no commentary because I don't have a mic, and I was hoping to have it reviewed by Probability, and he had requested no audio. It's 339mb which someone mentioned was too big a file and I needed to downsize it, but I didn't know how to do that. The video quality is quite good.

I'll report on my weekend charity game, my home game, and the date in my next update.

Stay classy
