Day 2 (526 to go)

Beginning of Day Bankroll: $51.88
Needed: $9948.12

Today I started playing around 6:15 and have made 20 bucks (it's currently 6:48). That's when I realized instead of setting it up such that my life revolves around my hours of poker play, I will instead organize my goal around dollars needed per day. I have 526 days left (375 if using my 5/7ths rule) and need to make 9948.12. Therefore I need to average about $18.91 per day based on 526 days or 26.53 based on 375 days left. Back to the table... I'll update at the end of my poker day. Download the song Bluebird Wine by Stoney LaRue.

Time: 7:28 pm
Song: Coldplay, Fix You... reminds me of freshman year of college
I'm now up $35 on the day. I'm playing tight-aggressive and it's really working well at these loose tables where guys can't let go of Ace-Nine pre-flop when you raise him 42 bucks. What the hell did he think I have? Anyway. Short break and I'm back to the table.

Time: 7:32
Song: Cross Canadian Ragweed, Alabama
MY LEGS ARE COLD I'M PUTTING ON SOME LEGGINGS.

7:33
Back to the table...

7:34
Is that the right term? Leggings? It's like checkered pants that are fuzzy. If you ever lived with me you know I wear these all the time (I have them in blue, red and diaper color). I've been known to wear them to college along with a skin-tight shirt with a huge fish on it and a Longhorn beanie and a Longhorn snoots in. God I miss it.

7:37
This is just something that bothers me... If you are a beginner, quit being surprised when you watch your decent-playing friend play and they fold a hand that happens to include an ace. You don't need to play A-3 or trash like that if you're first to act. You can play it all you want. Just quit being so surprised when I fold it.

8:26
I knew it. I got extremely distracted after I watched Mayne Street on ESPN.com and I'm pretty sure I called a re-raise with Ace Ten and hit my ten for top pair only to lose more money on the flop and turn before we checked down the river. Player held JJ. I'm still up like 15 bucks on the day but I seriously need to concentrate if I'm gonna do this. Oh and don't drink.

I may be done for the night.
