Hi guys! Haven't been blogging in a while, mainly due to uni stuff. Just thought I'd give a short update of what has been going on.

Poker is still going steady and I am very glad with my results for this month so far. I think I'm at about 10k hands for this month and up 7k. If everything goes according by plan I'll be taking some stabs @ 3/6 soon. Unluckily I haven't been playing much HU so far, but I haven been getting in some FR hands. Full ring is a nice change of pace, but most of the games that have been running lately haven't been anything special. Somehow I've still managed to get into big pots with the fish and hold up. I'm surprised @ the high amount of FR nits that just seem to be waiting for the big cards.
I've been doing more maths behind the game lately, I think it really hepls with deepening your feel for the game without playing a ridiculous amount of hands. After I am done reading Elements Of Poker, I'll definetly pick up my copy of Mathematics of Poker and start reading it.

Non-poker wise, I went snowboarding yesterday for the first time this season. I had some friends friends that I know from Spain come down and they were motivated to hit the mountains, so that's what we did. It was actually quite fun and I'm glad I dug out all my stuff to go. It was fun meeting some New Yorkers and I think I'm psyched to go to New York sometime soon and check out the city. They say it's very Europe-like anyway.

The other day I got a call from UB and the lady on the phone informed me about the new bonus system @ ub, which seems promising and encourages long term play like all the other sites, however when she ended the call she ended it with "Thanks for your time honey.", which made me laugh :P.

When I have some more time I'll post some hands that I've been playing.
