Finding the other grind

April 11, 2009 | 10:23 pm | superfluousman

I played a little poker early on this month.  Got tantalizingly close to big scores in a bunch of MTTs (a couple final 2 tables in the stars 100r, final 3 tables in the sunday brawl, final 2 tables in the ftp sunday 150r, getting fairly deep in a couple SCOOP events) but didn’t really [...]

Ain’t it beautiful to be alive?

Just because jealousy and immaturity forces me to steal the spotlight from my BFF JCarver, I feel compelled to write a blog post.  Don’t expect much from this, it’s more a preview of what’s to come soon, when I devote a bit more time to writing down my thoughts on here.
If this were a Bad [...]

An interesting couple of weeks

Since I last wrote up an entry, much has happened.  Let’s see…
I took three more law school exams:
I kind of studied for, and likely passed, all of Contracts, Civil Procedure, and Criminal Law.  I actually think I did well on the last two, but that is likely because there were no word limits on them; [...]

This morning, I somehow managed to wake up at 7:45, drank one of those 6-hour energy shots (which tasted like sweetened ass, felt like a kick to the stomach and resulted in the temporary hot feeling/red skin “niacin rush”) and completed my first law school exam (in torts).  I think I did alright, but because [...]

Doctors, Determination, Dread, and Dreams (part 2)

December 2, 2008 | 1:18 am | superfluousman

Since the last post, my dread about exams has subsided a bit.  Perhaps getting back to the law school and seeing that some of my competition peers seem to struggle with some of the material (despite likely putting in more work than me) gives me hope that I can still luckbox my way into a [...]

Doctors, Determination, Dread, and Dreams (part 1)

December 1, 2008 | 5:30 am | superfluousman

Alright, this entry was originally going to have “Motivation” in the title, but it seems I’ve sacrificed precise diction for alliteration.  Without further ado…
I’m sure this has been discussed elsewhere on the internet since last Tuesday, but I never promised originality here.  The House prediction I was referring to in my first post wasn’t that [...]

EXCITING POKER STORY!!!

November 21, 2008 | 6:05 pm | StefanProdan

I have a friend who is in law school at Chapel Hill, and there is a guy who wears salmon colored shorts in one of his classes who was seen playing poker on POKER STARS DOT COM.  My friend asked him if he was making any money and he said “YEAH DUDE I USED TO [...]
