- SCOOP results, other results, and fast-approaching trip plans

Hi people,

The SCOOP tourneys and p5s OT prop bet are done. We deeeeefinitetly didn't win that one. Disappointing that the one night my team got really deep was the only night I really should have been with my buddy that was fixing my car. All the other events were pretty standard tourney bust-outs. The one silver lining is that I've started to take an interest in some of the non-HE games around. While playing one of the PLO events I realized how much I suck at anything other than nlhe. Maybe I'll pick up a book.

Even though the internet sucked causing me to miss the entire first week of April's sngs, I'm having a pretty huge month. Yes, the lethal combo of decent variance and playing well help a lot, but I can't discount the "vacation time" I got from March 30th-April 8th. Sngs with a clear head are much easier (duuuuuh). We'll see how much the pseudo-vacations help over the next couple months (gone for a week in early May and a week in late June).

Like I said, it's been a banner month. I'll post the results at the end of the month when there's a sample size worth discussing, but for the time being, I'm just happy to have rent/food/airfare/etc. covered. Hopefully I can get enough socked away this next week to really soundproof the crap out of James and my rooms.

Angie, I know you read this - if Jake's got spare time over the weekend, I'll try to give him a call to talk for a few mins about some stuff I'm looking at (by the way, I hope the baby's not giving you too much trouble. Boll and I always love pickle-mango-pizza-tacos-ala mode, too - and we're not having kids yet).

Alright, I'm all hopped up on Mountain Dew! It's actually a workout supplement called NO-xplode (basically "healthy crack"). Once it kicks in I start to bounce of the walls a little bit...which means it's time to go to the gym.

Fatty time.

I read it too late! And you didn't call! (I checked with Jake) It's okay, I still love you. I only crave normal things, like cheeseburgers and raspberry iced tea. And not cheeseburgers dipped in iced tea.

Glad the poker is going so well. Jake did find a sweet idea for you to try with the sound proofing, but it will probably take another banner month of poker to afford.

Call this weekend -- he'll be freer. And I don't think that Colio, Jr is coming anytime soon.
