Mement Mori!!!!!!

Hey guys, again it's been a while since I've updated the blog. Nothing really too interesting has happened and it's just slipped my mind lately. I'm not doing too well poker wise since my last blog. I totally bricked FTOPS again which is fairly depressing. I'm also having a pretty terrible month all together in cash and MTTs. I'm not too worried though. I'm playing fairly well at least.

I've started to coach which is pretty cool. I'm a verified coach on 2+2 and have had a ton of interest for students. I've been really lazy about it but I've made a few videos for students and have done some group sweats which were pretty interesting. Coaching is going well for the most part. I received a PM from someone from a small training site. Hopefully I'll be making videos for them soon. It should be fun at the very least, and it'll be free advertising for my coaching business.

I was in Connecticut/New York for a couple weeks. It was pretty fun overall. I expected a little bit more but it was alright. It's nice to get away from home sometimes. I went to see a Yankees game while I was there which was spectacular. The new stadium is amazing and really well ran. The Yankees won in the bottom of the 12th or 13th with a walk-off double. It was a super exciting game and definitely the highlight of the trip.

On a lighter note, I've switched backers yet again. This one not for the same reasons as the last. Matt G was a pretty good backer overall, but I really didn't feel the friendly element with him as I did with other backers in the past. Also he was somewhat misinformed in some aspects of the tournament world. He thought some tournaments were tough when they clearly weren't etc. I received an offer from mement_mori (youcanhaveitall on 2+2) which was much better. I'd be playing pretty much every online tournament I could possibly imagine playing. This means I'd be playing the $2500 FTOPS, $5K WCOOP, weekly $1k's, $100r's, the works. He's also a really cool guy and we get along really well. I really think it's important to be friends with your backer at least in my opinion. It helps things operate more smoothly as a whole.

School is starting soon which I have mixed feelings about. Usually I'm pretty upset and want summer to last forever, but part of me wants to go back to school. I kind of want a regular thing again where I'm waking up in the morning. Seeing all my friends is fun, and some aspects of school are fairly fun as well. I have a feeling it's going to be a good year. Junior year FTW!

Thanks for reading,
