Stars is down for me right now for some reason. It's pretty tilting b/c I had a plethora of fish at my tables, and was just starting an epic 2hr Saturday night grind. Games have been crazy good on Stars. I'm still putting in 5+ hrs/day, and my results are slowly getting better. I'm having about 1 session per day that I run terrible it seems. It's frustrating thinking I'm going to put up big numbers, and then my last session cuts my winnings in half. It hasn't been from lack of focus or burnout, I've been extremely motivated and have enjoyed playing a lot. I should hit gold star tomorrow (would've been tonight if it didn't crash), and I'm nearly 2 days ahead of pace to hit platinum now. I've put in 24.6k hands so far which I'm pleased with.

I hit 5k posts on Leggo the other day which is somewhat cool, but sad. I'm closing in on Vitas for #2 all time, but Probability will probably always remain ahead. He has .11 more posts/day than me, and has been around much longer. I've been replying to just about ever HH in the Micro forums, and also posting ~2/day myself. I've noticed a few new ppl contributing, along with some returning members, and coaches. If you're a micro player, you should def get involved. Who knows, Aejones might even comment on your hand (he's been posting a few times as well).

Aside from poker I haven't been doing much. I am planning a trip to the islands in late January. Matt and Jordan are going to meet Kesky down there, and it seemed like a good opportunity to see some stuff. Right now it sounds like Phuket, Railay, and Phi Phi are on the agenda. That's also about the time I need to make a career decision about poker. I'll be running low on cash, and I pretty much told myself if I don't make money over the next 80-100k hands I'm going to quit. That won't happen though.
