going anywhere? nope.

well i've got a little bit to talk about i suppose but a little more let down than anything else. ill start with poker since i feel ive let myself down in that more than anything. so my first session for the month went decent and i won 3 buyins which was good. the next two sessions i ended up losing 1 and 2 buyins resulting in a break even week for me. pretty lame. the last 2 days i litteraly just bairly turned up the aggression and felt like it went to shit. i got pretty frustrated over this last week that my preflop opening range out of position is going to be slimmed down to see if it creates any difference. the 10nl on merge is a bit softer than the 10nl on stars from what i remember. the 10nl on stars had a decent amount of regs on it and you knew who you could play back against. the player pool on merge is pretty bad which results to having to play pretty much for value and if you step to far with the agression than it shows and thats how i felt this week. playing for straight value is fine and dandy but its a bit boring. mix that with only playing 6-8 hours a week and you might see where the frustration builds. i feel like ive been tickled with a feather the last couple of months. pickup went alright for what i did. i ended up going to the state fair one last time and did a couple approaches but didnt get anywhere and this weeknd i did 2 more approaches but didnt get anywhere. its starting to get pretty slim in anchorage. today its 50 degrees and sunny so its starting to get chilly and all the girls start going into hibernation. im still glad im out approaching anyways and keeping me fresh for when i move to cali in november. so far this month has been a bit frustrating. work is moving along but its getting to the point where its lost its spark and im starting to get tired of it. ive got 7 weeks left and the last 4 are going to be grueling but well worth it. poker and pickup have been going really slow but i cant expect a whole lot after working 12 hours a day im more focused on being able to practice both before i move and start trying to get decent results. kinda lame this week but thats how its going to be for the next 7 weeks so just bare with me and then we'll get into some real excitement! but untill next time cosmonauts stay tuned :)
