Operation: $$ accumulation

Hey Daven. I've said this before and I'll say it again: I'm a huge fan of your nomadic lifestyle. I'm pretty sure this is exactly what I said the first time we spoke. I truly respect that you go out there and live the way you want. I've recently been trying to do exactly the same.

With that, good luck in poker. Own it so you can continue to live on your terms.

cheers boog.

yesterday was a bit of a running milestone. I talked to a reasonably serious runner about what would be a good door-to-door time for a circuit I run (@mark if you read this = KEC on stuart -> moana pool -> queens drive -> ross creek reservoir -> laps of reservoir -> back the same way). He figured 1hr 10 would be solid. I smashed myself and came in at 58mins. Absolutely stoked with how my body responded between the 30 and 45 minute marks, although I still have a lot of work to do on post-hitting-the-wall. I'll head out for the first 2hr run of this training kick sometime in the next week, base is getting good so it's time to mix long runs in with some speed/interval work. Psyched.

poker is just fine. Made my monthly withdrawal and promptly lost a few buyins. Bankroll is still well north of where it was at the start of the month. I'm getting into some silly wars, last 10k hands I'm 54% fold to 3b, 28% 4b and it's time to calm that shit down some. I think I've made my point by now. It seems that I'm going to be clearing FTP bonuses forever. I'm getting through the $5k black card bonus, by the time i clear it I'll have two $600 ironman medal bonuses to clear, then the midyear $600 ironman bonus, and by then i'll have close to enough FTPs to get another $5k black card bonus. And so it continues. I'm mixing in a few MTTs lately, still haven't had a decent score but I'm getting slowly better - I need to do a bit of work on bet/shove spots in mid-game and on late game calling ranges. Maybe time to run a bunch of turbo sngs.

life's good. It's Saturday morning. It's raining outside. Maybe it's time to grind. 60k hands so far this month. My volume is laughable.

A circus freak friend sent me a cool link of some acrobalance madness, i'm impressed
