UPDATE ON LIFE (AND A BIT OF POKER)

So, it turns out I'm actually still alive, but have been extremely busy with things away from poker at the moment. Mainly, I decided that I should actually get a job! After applying to the Big4 for different positions, I have attended a few interviews and assessment centres over the last month. Actually been offered a job with KPMG starting September 2007, but not entirely sure if I'm going to accept it at the moment. I have still have interviews and/or assessment days lined up for my other potential jobs, so I will attend all of these before making any kind of decision.

When I have played poker, I've been a little naughty and just played whatever stakes (within reason) have taken my fancy:

NL CASH - $50NL

Hands (Total): 2038 (19105)
$ won (Total): +$125.73 (-$147.47)
Current BR: ?

NL CASH - $100NL

Hands (Total): 409 (409)
$ won (Total): +$238.77 (+$238.77)
Current BR: ?

STTs - $12s

Games (Total): 12 (145)
$ won (Total): -$45.00 (+$285.00)
Current BR: ?

STTs - $24s

Games (Total): 39 (39)
$ won (Total): +$73.80 (+$73.80)

Current BR: ?

MTTs - $?

Nah!

Total BR: ??????

No idea where my bankroll stands as I've spent loads recently, although a lot I will get back in expenses for trips to and from interviews. The plan is to fanny about and play cash games and STTs throughout December without really caring about results in between interviews and other fun things I have to do. Then, sometime very early in January, I make a new plan and blog it again. Something similar to this but maybe without the MTTs as I've very quickly learned to despise them!

Think I will probably start a new blog for my new 2007 challenge. I will post the address of this new blog on here as soon as I decide to start it.

Apologies for the lack of updates if anyone was waiting for some, which I'm sure many many people were. Oh, and England make me sad in the ashes, but Sheff. Wed's ridiculous run of form in the Championship dries those tears.

Laters,
