Busy Week Ahead

I write this after having the most frustrating 10 minutes of my life. One of my students in Thailand set up a session for 3am EST for a review of some hands he has played since he has made the transition to $50nl. As im still normally awake at this time and the games are usually beginning to die, its a perfect time to do a session. However, third world Thai internet didnt want to cooperate and our calls on Skype would drop every 20 seconds.... beyond frustrating.

Ok rant over... This week should really be a busy one for me on the poker front. Since I am heading up to Cleveland to meet up with Nfeugo and Vizer next Monday, I really need to put in a lot of volume this coming week. As Nfeugo, despite playing for a living, never plays poker anymore I think there is a 5% chance that I log any hands during my time there (four days). As I would normally play about 15k hands in that time, I need to make them up sometime and before I go seems as good as any.

This means I need to be hitting about 5500 hands a day, which would be fine if I wasnt a little busy with other poker related things. On Tuesday, I've got the podcast to record and three hours of coaching to do and on Wednesday, I've got a live poker tournament in which there will be a $1000 splash pot along with 25 players ponying up $100, so thats a no brainer to attend. All these little things add up to me needing to maximize my time. So I thought I would make a post so that when I come and check back on my blog later in the week I will see that I need to be playing and not randomly wasting time on the world wide web.

On a side note, I seem to have conquered my calling station demons, through four days of the month I think I have pushed the demon back into the closet and firmly shut the door, only time will tell for sure.

Good luck at the tables to all.
