Still only posting totals, had a rough week or two with Mansion's bonus playing out and hitting an "all time low" but pulled it back up in the past few days. If you played me this last week and had 2-3 outs you would hit. If I had QQ you had KK, if I had KK you had AA. Yet that is what poker is about, and with all the training I have done this year so far I understand that it happens... next tourney.
Pulled my left hamstring at baseball this week just as my quads on both legs had finally almost healed... all that is next is for me to pull my groin and the season will be full filled. Cheers! It hurts worse than the quads and I have to keep my leg up with a couple tensor bandages tightly wrapped to be able to "hobble" around. I am going to the Dr. to have him look at it tomorrow and set my "return" to full time work date.
No home poker games this week mostly just playing on Mansion late at night when the kids are asleep. Baseball was a "blow out" this week losing all 3 games. The kids had a great time at there first soccer game. Swimming lessons are going strong for them too, my wife read some stuff and saw some stuff on T.V. which made her a little "paranoid" and we signed them up for a summer session as well, but they used to get the summer off and swimming lessons on in the winter. Yes we can go swimming in Canada in the winter, it's due to a revelation called "community centers" with indoor "heated" water... Cheers!
Videos for training on PokerVTand some on Poker strategy, as I have moved up a level, "gold" have also taken a lot of my training time.
Movie night consisted of Star Trek which was really really good. JJ Abrams had a lot to do with the production and I sense that after LOST is over this year that anything he is involved in will be totally amazing. I am going to rent Star Trek and watch it again as soon as it is available. Of course I am going to buy the 5th season of Lost when it come out as I missed a few episodes.
David Jr. is set for an operation in October and we are looking into his eye surgery. I finally got my college loan "crap" figured out and received a 10K reduction of the balance due to my grades when I was in school and paying all payments on time for the last 8 years! Cheers

Sharkscope only seems to record SnG results and not MTT's which I have done well at in my very few attempts.
Estimated totals of all games in 2009- 35
SnG total games played in 2009, according to sharkscope-10
Mansion: falenangel, last update $231.82, currently at $320.82
It was a tuff week and a bit with a lot of variance hitting me in the face, but not the kind I like!
Tournaments played: Buy in of $10 or less. It was even tougher to record all the tournaments and game success I was having as I barely broke even, if at all, and thanks to bonuses got extra cash to make my bankroll look as if it was doing better than I had thought.

Between all sites I was Bubble Boy a total of ? times in the past week. I think I might stop paying attention to bubble boy stats... I mean it's basically meaningless. Cheers!
Hours spent training and improving my poker game: average of 2.5/day
Hours spent watching WSOP live stream: 1/day
Hours spent watching other players at my buy in levels: 30 min./day
Hours spent working on blog: 15 min/day
Hours spent playing: 3.5/day
Day off: Wednesday and Thursday. Lots of T.V watching UFC and deadliest warriors as well as some older movies that were on and a whole bunck of late night poker viewing..., Poker After Dark, WPT championsship and HOCKEY! I am totally unhappy that Detroit didn't take it down, but figured that it would go to 7 games when it was tied 2-2.
Quitting smoking is starting to go well, in fact I am almost mentally at the stage where I am accepting the idea to quit as that is needed before I actually try to quit physically. I have set this Friday as my stop date and am telling as many people as possible as to let them all give me "chit" if I am seen smoking after June 19th.
Favorite movie watched this week "Star Trek", I did watch like 2 rented movies and not some T.V., and of course whatever the wife is watching before she prepares for bed each night, I am a celebrity get me the hell outta here was kinda interesting.
Need to finish watching all the new video content on PokerVT, which is rare to take me so long through the week, and catch up on the strategy available to my new level on Poker strategy for tournaments and SnG's, which will probably take me over 3 months to watch it all and fit it into my weekly routine... just an overload of training videos but I am happy to have too much as compared to not enough. I also have 2 new poker books I still need to start reading. I am almost done reading the end of "fooled" and will start the new books when I am.
Best of luck to all at the tables and I wish everyone and there families total success in all your endeavours. I am also including a few families in my prayers at night and wish your mother's all the best in there recovery!
I wish all the PokerVT and Pokerstrategy members and pros all the best at the WSOP in 2009!
Cheers and Shambone!
