Not much to report, I took like four days off, not really by design, I just somehow didn't think of fitting poker into my day. Friend of mine is switching jobs and doesn't start till the 18th, so we're hanging out a lot and playing tennis and video games and drinking excessively. It's pretty boss.

I began looking for rakeback deals at other sites because at this point, I think it's fairly obvious that I'm a breakeven player and need a little extra boost to make me feel better about myself. Sadly I didn't find much. I had a deal on Absolute for rakeback, but Absolute blech...however, I never played on Ultimatebet, which is funny because it's just as shitty and shady as Absolute probably, but hey I get 30% rakeback and an $1100 deposit bonus. Course in 1000 hands so far, I'm down over $100 on my intial deposit and only cleared $10 of my bonus money, so yknow. Who knows where this will lead. I can't really picture myself grinding through the entire bonus because the software and site in general just tilt me to shit with how crappy it is. The games seem incredibly soft though, almost PartyPoker-esque way back in the day. Deck isn't helping me much, but I do see some potential profit long as I tighten up and don't do anything too stupid. Also doing FL now which is a heck of a lot better for clearing bonuses. Sadly (though no real surprise) the traffic is pretty low for the most part except in the evenings, so I'm playing pretty much any tables I see from .50/1 to 2/4, and playing many of them to try and grind through bonus. Funny how last post I had was in a completely different direction, scaling back tables and trying to really improve my game, and here I am 8+ tabling FLHE to grind a bonus. I have no discipline. Or direction. I suppose it's no wonder then that I continue to be average, heh. Obviously I'm not working too hard at the moment to get better! It's alright, I'll take free money over that, even if it will take >150000 hands to clear. Gross. I should do a prop bet for how many hands I make it through before I crash and burn. Takers?
