'Tis the Season and Poker =)

Hello readers. I love this time of year- the week before Thanksgiving, all the stores getting ready for the holidays, planning presents..there is so much excitement in the air, its almost electirc.

I wonder, if because my energy level is so positive and high in Nov and Dec, if that is the reason why I seem to excel online repeatedly each time of year at this time. This week, I finished in the top 10 of UB's MTT Tournament Leaderboard, with 7 out of 11 cashes. On a sidenote, I have done well in the few sngs and satellites that I have played. Maybe I just run good the second and third week in Nov =).

Last night was frustrating for me. I managed to final table the UB $8k $30r at 3pm. My goal was to play four or five tournies to boost points on leaderboard in the event that I cashed. I ran QQ into AA at the final table- if I had more chips, I couldve folded however, I was down to less than 8 bbs.

This week has been great. I caught up on a bunch of work, we got a new TV for the bedroom, I got an awesome new monitor for the desktop- 22"- it makes playing online so much better, although I still prefer using my laptop.

I cannot wait until next weekend, I am going to decorate for the holidays. We are getting our tree the middle of December, and going to see the tree lighting on Dec 3rd. It is going to be wonderful! I already started holiday shopping. I dislike wrapping the least out of all the holiday season activities, but even that is not so bad! I am going to decorate in all silver and blue, since Jonathan is Jewish, I think it is important to incorporate aspects of both holidays in our life.

Lastly, a huge shout out to Jonathan who took down the 8pm 20k on UB last night---goooo babes! So cute that he won, I am so proud of him!

Also, I want to take this time to thank my old dear, online UB friends- tater h0, hazy cat, kryptic, sonofanh, heyzeus, arjun7777, mr sgb, big savage, mooknam, and michele1024 and my new UB friends, jbc_78 and abatnic for all the railage and support the past few weeks, you guys are awesome- I hope we all win a ton of fking tournies in 2009!

Good money and peace,

Lucky C and Ace.
