I've got my xdsl all setup now with a router and all and it's really nice. It's very fast and it's a flat rate.
I'm a little bit behind in the hands I should be playing, but this is not entirely my fault. I have been very busy running around and trying to organize things for uni, plus one day I didn't have any internet, because my ISP was down and another I wasn't feeling well. Basically I'm trying to catch up now, by playing more than 1k hands when I can. We'll see how that turns out. Poker in itself is running very well though, my results are good and I think I am playing well, but not great. I'm also sure now that I'm running above expecation, because I'm getting it in with a lot of coolers for my opponents.
I'm not playing on iPoker right now due to their VIP system. Basically I will be playing there soon again when the reloads come back for February. I'm trying to maintain my Absolute VIP level for the meanwhile. I still get a lot of rakeback there, although I guess it's around 10-20% less than when I first joined. I contacted support and they claimed it was a little bit too much rakeback they were offering. It's however still decent for a VIP elite player. I think it's in the range of 60%, maybe I'll do the maths sometime.
As far as non poker related topics go, I'm training right now to get accepted into sports management. I'd consider myself to be an athletic person and I'm interested in how the human body works etc.. It'll be good for me, because I need something to aim for, to keep me motivated when I train. The trickiest part is 200m freestyle. We have to do it in 3:50 which isn't ridiculous by any means, but since I rarely ever swim I still need to train for it. I hope that turns out well.
Even though I am on holidays I'm still running around all the time doing stuff for uni etc :/.
I'm also reading the book Elements of Poker from Tommy Angelo. It's an interesting book as it gives you some insight of a lot of other aspects of poker that are rarely covered, but are very important. I'd say it's a mandatory read for any serious poker player.
