Lazy, Busy or a Combination of the Two

I don't know why I don't update much in the summer. I think it's a combination of good weather, family time, work and poker. I sometimes will sit with the intention of, but then get distracted by things, such as right now when RustyBrooks sends me an AIM message. But tonight I'm updating and will not be deterred.

So my last post was a test intro(which I removed) for my entry into the Insomniac contest put on by DeucesCracked, which was to basically draw up plans for an 8 episode video series and produce a pilot episode, all within 24 hours. I made a PL/NLO8 series called In a Nutshell and my submission won! It was released as a regular DC video, which can be found here: http://www.deucescracked.com/videos/1006-INSOMNIA-training-video-festival-Winner-1
I received some DC gear, a sweatshirt, a couple more shirts and a DeucesCracked rubber ducky. I also was informed that a full series will be produced and I'm to talk to Krantz about it some time this month. He also invited me for a few hours of coaching and cameo on Two Months Two Million if i could make it to Vegas. Unfortunately it was such short notice and I had something that had to be done, I couldn't make it. Hopefully a rain check comes of it.

I've played hardly any O8 in the past few weeks, I've been mostly focusing on the new 7 game mix at Full Tilt and that's been generally going well. Was a little tilted yesterday and managed to still break even. I find that I almost always have an edge in 5 of the 7 games, sometimes 6 and a few times I think every game. This hand did bug me a bit, primarily the river and what the best line realistically is. Villain was a bit more laggy, but iirc was tilted a little bit.

I don't know if check/call is better than bet/call or bet/fold.

Last thing for now, I'll hopefully get to some interesting hh's from 7 game, is TilterRick set up 2 daily forum gatherings on Sunday, both HORSE and said if anyone wins boths they get a buyin into the FTOPS Main Event that evening. Well, I had to go ahead and do that, but of course the second one ended about an hour after the ME started,lol. So thanks to Rick for making the offer and shipping. I might play a bigger buyin MTT, definitely going to stake some more people, we'll see what else.

I'm off for now, as usual I'll try to keep up with this a bit more, but we'll see.
