been awhile + funny column

yes, it has been quite some time since i last posted here....it feels like the old days with once a week posts, but nothing has been quite worth posting here....

saturday- grad. party was fun....thanks to everyone that attended
sunday- doubleheader against mt lebanon = 2 victories....it was so hot all day but we won the game and we almost started a fight with them after the game(we almost start a fight with every team)
monday- something of non relative importance i'm sure
tuesday- i think today was poker day...in the holdem tourny i didn't even make it to the final 8....my pocket 9's were beat by ace rag when an ace spiked on the flop....oh well....afterwards i was pulvarized in side gaming....i'm not sure if it's a lack of skill or something, but i am consistently losing in side gaming....part of it is that i think and the other part is that i can't complete a draw....oh well, i got 100 online and by the end of the night i had doubled it playing 2/4 limit
wednesday- got up feeling like a million bucks....started at the 2/4 limit and put in a hard 1.5 hour session leaving me up like 55 bux.....bradburn and i hung out and by the end of the night i had gotten courageous and leaded to 5/10 limit....now there's a rush if you've never felt one....ended the night at around 350....
thursday- it's funny, really, what happens when you get up a lot of money....you want more of it....granted, i gave away 70 to cass and 50 to ben, i was still at 230....it started by me losing 20 and the 2/4 tables....then my instincts tell me "move up, move up to 5/10", so i do....i'm just getting crushed up there, those guys are fearless and quite masterful at their trade(most of them are professional players) and i'm down to 80....then i hit a 30 minute monster rush to put me up to 340.....i should have quit, seeing that i knew that their skill was far superior to mine, but i have a hard time stopping when i get up that much....yikes....the next hour i found out why being a pro poker player isn't all that it's cracked up to be....i got annihiliated in almost every pot and yes i couldn't hit many draws, but winning in limit poker is being the guy who plays the marginal hands the best....and those guys were surely better than me....the storm started to brew and i was down to 150....then the only thing that saved my last 12 dollars was this huge lightning bolt that had to be no more than 20 feet from my window....i was like, okay, im done, and i shut off the computer....i went to war of the worlds and saw carmelo there, the movie is scarier than i thought it would have been....good movie though....that night, i decided i was back....i finished first, then second in consecutive sng's and my bankroll was somewhat secure....
today- so i get woke up this morning at 10:25(on 6 hours of sleep) by my dad with the phone....nayhouse calls and we decided to go to breakfast....it was good, i'm not usually up for my favorite meal of the day but it's always nice to be....after, we went to best buy and i got chapelle show season 2....then we went to nayhouses and played mario tennis for gamecube and then went to pick up his little cousin(may i remark that his little cousin's sister is pretty hot imo, just thought that i'd add that in there?lol) so after that, we watched chapelle show, got something to eat, went to my brother's game(congrats to drew who hit a grand slam and his team just owns everyone, they are representing baldwin well) and then home....tonight....well first, congrats to cassidy(chris cass) on his 17th place finish in the 20+2 NL game this afternoon....get used to these finishes poker world, the south baldwin boys are here to stay(i know that sounds extremely homosexual) but in general i feel that as a group we are playing such better poker than a year ago...games are tougher to beat but the crew is still entertaining as always...tonight i started out well on online poker....i just absolutely crushed a table, it was the best poker i played in my life that i can remember...next, bradburn and i did an sng where i took a tough AQ v AJ beat or i would have surely cashed...simoultaneously(sp?), i was playing another sng where my 33 got busted by 22 for about 5k and that would have secured first place....oh well, those kind of beats happen....then i just got crazy and went to 2/4 limit and instantly lost 20....went back to 1/2 limit and battled for a 6 dollar profit....
current bankroll- 42 + change
current profit- 92 + change
it's a hard way to make an easy living, you can say that again....

so i decided to end this post with a column of funny comments i've been collecting for about 5 months....i have found all of these comments humorous....i've had to take out some comments for privacy's sake so if you want to see these comments, IM me....these are all from people i know and many of the jokes most of you won't get, but some of them are quite good
