Bad times. Only 6 1sts, 13 2nds, and 13 3rds. Not (obv?) moving up now. I think I’ll try to play my next 100 in the next 24 hours, without losing my cool or my mind. My next post will be how that goes. Wheeeeee. Something for you to anxiously await….
was the first CD I ever bought. What can I say? I liked Amanda.
Spent a long weekend in Boston. It was great. There are plently of friends I have a good time with, but hangin’ with Heather and my parents is about as good as it gets.
3 bowls of chowder (although surprisingly not one trip to Legal)
1 win at Careers, a couple of cribbage wins, a 9 to 1 win, a couple Taboo wins, and lots of good times.
1 trip to a very cool Harvard Stadium to see a WPS game (0-0 tie, but cool). No trip to Fenway this time.
1 whole boiled lobster, eaten looking at the ocean in Maine.
1 trip to the best breakfast place evah, The Golden Egg in Portsmouth, NH, followed by some shopping.
3 trips to the best ice cream place evah, Richardson’s Dairy in Middleton, MA
No Foxwoods or Mohegan Sun
A quick layover at LaGuardia, reminding us we need to do NYC sometime.
Probably a lot more I don’t remember. But, a great, great trip.
If you have any that you’d like me to discuss ‘on air’, or better yet, that you’d be willing to discuss with me ‘on air’, please e-mail at thejimsheet AT hotmail.
Thanks in advance.
I haven’t won (1st place) in my last 40 sngs. Wow.
I don’t understand how people grind so much. I run bad for 15 sngs, and I’m furious at the world.
Ok, lol, I feel better after writing that. Somehow, it takes it out of my head and makes it real, and in the real world, running bad for a few sngs isn’t too bad. And, I just flopped a boat with J5o in the bb in a mtt.
Back to the grind.
Haven’t written much, and probably won’t again for awhile. I’m headed to Boston on Thursday for a long weekend with my parents. I’m definitely looking forward to it.
thejimshow had its second show this week. I thought it sucked, but if you’re interested in my take on the final table, it’s available at bigstackradio. I will be recording episode 3 on Tuesday night to be released by Saturday, to keep the rhythym. This week’s show will be basketball centric. We’ll see.
Poker. Finished another 100 sngs a couple days ago and haven’t played since. Despite a long cold streak in the middle, I managed to be itm 45 times (13 1sts, 14 2nds, and 18 3rds). I’m debating moving up a level, but will probably hold off. We’ll see.
Ordered Showtime on Thursday and am falling deeper into the world of Big Brother. No big surprise that I enjoy the escape of it.
My workouts are almost non-existent. I am heavier than I have ever been. I think I’m still probably more fit due to the residual effects of my 37 weeks of workouts, but I need to get back on it, or quitting soda and cigs isn’t going to mean much.
That’s it for now. See y’all soon.
I have a case of the blahs.
I also have heartburn. I remember a couple years ago, Tom, Alan, and I were riding bikes and Tom was having trouble due to heartburn. At the time, I didn’t even know what heartburn was, but I understand now. It sucks. I have been getting it pretty much every night. I just looked up heartburn prevention and it mentions cutting out nicotine and caffeine. Ummm, well, I already did that. Whatever.
Blahblah. I just don’t have anything else to say.
Since I’m not playing much, I think I’ll start including some commentary of hands I see on TV.
This year’s WSOP should start on Tuesdays starting July 28. That first night will be the 40k nlhe, which I’m interested in because I was there sweating it live for the second half. Then, the next two weeks will be the Champs Invitational and Ante up for Africa (blech). Then, it’s 13 weeks (every Tuesday August 18 through November 10) of Main Event. Obviously, I’d love to see non-nlhe on TV, but we don’t always get what we want blahblahblah.
I have lost touch with the WPT, but will try to rekindle that romance.
I enjoy the NBC HU championship, but it’ll be awhile.
Speaking of NBC, I do watch PAD almost daily, even the repeats. This week is one of my favorite lineups, and it’s cash, which I prefer. Nets v. Vets or somesuch with Benefield, South, Caby, Brunson, Elezra, and Kaplan. I recommend it, homies.
And, of course, HSP, the best poker on TV (ok, maybe not good poker, but entertaining). Maybe I’ll go back to season 1 and watch them all again online while I wait for a new season.
You can e-mail me now at thejimsheet AT hotmail, homies.
Taped the pre-official premiere episode of thejimshow. If it’s not already up, it should be shortly on bigstackradio. Then, had some dinner with Funhouse boys before we did our show. That should also be up shortly, although I’m sure all of you listened to the live stream.
We went and saw ‘Bruno’ afterwards. I won’t go into too much detail, as I don’t want to spoil it, but I will say I was a fan of ‘Borat’ and was disappointed enough that I won’t be recommending ‘Bruno’.
For a long day, that’s not much writing. I need to catch up on my Main Event blogs and then hit the hay. Later.
