VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:42:16 PM): it was pretty rough in the beginning

VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:42:41 PM): so then i win a few more pots and get back up to like 350 again

VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:42:49 PM): and then this hand comes up

VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:42:53 PM): i limp early with 47h

VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:44:28 PM): turn T river J

VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:44:36 PM): he has ATs so i win

unEn Erg iz Ed (2:44:48 PM): good

VaNiLLa ChAoS 01 (2:44:55 PM): then from that pot i just grinded up to like 1k and then we left at 6am

Eng was able to pay me back some so now i have a solid BR again to play 1/2 with. I gotta cough up 1k for my mom for this month's credit card bill + a little extra for "rent".
I guess I don't mind really paying for rent since 1. that will prove to her i'm ready to be on my own and 2. If i need her to cover a month or 2 of real rent in the future when i'm living somewhere, i'm sure she'd do that for me.

I found a game in Fort Lee that me and Joe checked out last week. We played 1/2 and i finished +$386. Joe got pretty unlucky and busted out. It's a house game and seems pretty safe. They mainly do a 2/5 and higher but it seems like a good connection so i'm happy i found that. I also found a small 1/2 game in SoHo that gets together a couple times a week. I'm not worried about that place getting robbed or busted since it's only 1 table. Hopefully i'll be able to get in a few more sessions before 2008.

Peace.
