hope to keep this run through aruba, leave in 2 days!

back from atlantic city

Atlantic city is a shithole of a town. We stayed at Borgata for like 12 nights or something retarded like that. I ran okay in cash... paid for my buyins for donkaments. I cashed the 770.00 in like 23rd when I rejammed A10 over a jammer and he had 69off and binked a 9 on the turn. fml. In the 3500.00 main event I've never been so card dead in my life. I think I folded for like 6 levels or 7 hours straight. It was gross. Never saw KK or AA the whole 2 days. I ended up jamming 99 and got called by AQ, flop QQ10 and that was it for me.... I did meet a lot of cool people, but overall I broke even on the trip. Very disappointing. I leave for Aruba in 9 days which is exciting. Today I wanted to start off the grind but alas, it was not meant to be for me today... at least not yet. I shut it down after this hand...

August Results and trips are booked

I ended August with a huge bang making 4150.12 yesterday and ending the month +20.6k which I'm super pumped about. I put in a ton of hands and played every day except for one. I struggled through May and June so this helps get me back on track to my goal of +200k on the year. Right now I'm around +108k.

We have our trip to Borgata all booked and ready to go so winning a million there will surely boost me over my goal. :) We get back from Atlantic City then a week later it's back to ARUBA. weeeeeeeeee. We booked our flights there yesterday as well as 12 nights. 3100 for the hotel and 1200 for flights. FML, but gonna run better this year and win a million there too.

Just giving you all a preview of what is to come.... peace out.
