CARDRUNNERS

Following up from last month's success I have started off this month well also- primarily playing 400NL Full Ring. In fact, I'm almost as much as I was all last month combined. I haven't even really ran “great” either as I'm up less than a buyin according to PokerEV on all in luck before the river. With FTOPs coming around, yet again, this bankroll booster couldn't really come at a better time as I can now play in more events without feeling really negative about losing. But I will think more about that when the time comes. Hopefully I didn't jinx myself already.

While I am writing this at around 10:30 P.M., I'm waiting for my friend Justin to call on whether or not he's going out tonight. If he don't it looks like I'll be staying in unfortunately. One of the weekend nights I want to go out and it is looking like a no go. I have a couple ideas on things I could say wherever we go, if the opportunity is right, whether or not I'd actually use it is another question entirely.

UPDATE: It's 10:53PM and appears we are not going. It's not worth it at this time now anyway. Time to get unchanged. One rare night I was in the mood to go out too. I really really don't feel like going to this one place tomorrow night as apparently a crap band is playing there which means you'll need the usual sign language and lipreading to communicate. So I have no idea on what to do now.

Big game this weekend. It's going to be really tough- much more so than last week. One thing that concerned me last week is after moving the ball, we couldn't get it in the endzone. If that happens against the Giants, chances are we won't win. I was hoping to win tickets somehow but that did not come to fruition. As for the other games, I'm thinking Panthers will crush the Cards by at least 20. Titans and Ravens could go either way as I really wouldn't trust Flacco or Collins against either of these defenses. For the sake of not picking all favorites, I'll go with the Ravens. For the Steelers game, I'm always concerned about their line giving up sacks but I don't think that will be much of an issue in this one. I also can't imagine Turner outcoaching someone two weeks in a row.

Well its been a year since i really starting playing lot more aka since graduating. This year was doing great till April-my first losing month of the year. And lost I did. Between taking unsuccessful shots at 1knl and running horrendous at 400plo, I was down 12k.  I really need to get myself focused soley on 400nlh 6max. However, I am also going to incorporate some HU when I find a good table as well as play some more tournies. I think I was getting a little too spewy during some of my losing sessions, so I need to make sure I stay calm and pick out good spots. I dont need to pick out every spot...but just some to get a nice mix.

I will also be heading down to AC again from May 10-13 as the Harrahs Poker Open is down there and hopefully it will attract some more fish to the cash games as the WSOP circuit did back in March.

As far as NFL draft goes...I love what the Eagles did. Got a top 10 talent in Maclin, a top RB to help bwest, a great value pick TE in Ingram and accumulated some picks for next year.

Wow to that Manny Pacquiao punch.

Sixers went out one and done again in the playoffs. They couldnt even get close to selling out game 6. The organization is in trouble right now as no one goes to the games and there is no real hope at contending. They might as well blow it up and hope to land a top pick and a franchise guy some year down the road. mediocre is the worst thing to be in the NBA and thats exactly what they are. I'm a firm believer in Red Aurebach's superstar theory but no one else seems to "get it".

I was going to go on and tell a story involving this girl I been hangin with and craigslist but maybe ill just save that for the offtopic boards on CR.
