Rocky, Rocky, Rocky!!

I'm just working my way through the Rocky box set, currently at the end of my favourite, Rocky 4. Jesus some of the quotes are awesome! Cringe.

'During this fight, I've seen a lot of changing, in the way you feel about me, and in the way I feel about you. In here, there were two guys killing each other, but I guess that's better than twenty million. I guess what I'm trying to say, is that if I can change, and you can change, everybody can change!'

'He's worried! You cut him! You hurt him! You see? You see? He's not a machine, he's a man!'

Inspiring stuff!

Anyway, here's a short life update.

I've not played a huge amount of online poker over the last few months. Just a few tournaments on Full Tilt, but no STT’s. On Pokerstars I’m stuck on 81k in VPP’s, and after missing two months I lost my Supernova status. I need to rake the extra 19k in VPP’s by the end of the year or I lose out on a fair few bonuses this year and next. I’m pretty sure I’ll be very fucked off with myself if I don’t manage to achieve SN status for next year. Therefore that’s going to be my goal over the next 7 weeks. I need to play an average of 80 $16 STT’s a day for 40 days. This gives me a few days off which I’ll need as I doubt I’ll be playing much on Christmas day. Although I’m going to be in London for Christmas for the first time in quite a few years I don’t want to spend too much time playing poker!

In terms of playing live poker I’m going to try and limit myself to playing only once a week. Although I much prefer it, it’s just too time-consuming and hitting Supernova has to be my main goal. I’ll be playing the GUKPT Champion of Champions event. I also really want to play the two NLHE events at the player’s championships at the International, but unless I manage to sell 50% of myself then I won’t be doing it. I’ve currently sold 30% so I need to sell another two £60/10% blocks. If anyone’s interested then PM or email me.

I've been out with a couple of girls since I got back from holiday. Both are nice, but I think I like one a little more than the other. Not sure whether she’s that into me really though, we'll see. It's typical that it’s the one you like least seems to be the one who phones and texts me regularly. Anyway, knowing the way I run, i'll still be single this time next year! GG.

Weight update. After a rather heavy week I’ve gone back up to 97kgs. FFS.
