Hi everyone! November has been a very exciting month for me and Jonathan. On halloween, I ended up chopping the $33k knockout on FTP for 11k. Jon drove to Biloxi with his friend, Dragon on Halloween. I met up with them a few days later after a very annoying and drama filled plane ride. In Biloxi, I bubbled 2 out of 3 tournaments I played, and did fairly well in cash games. Jon almost won a WSOP circuit ring. He ended up 2nd after going HU for the ring. He was dominated by hi opponent in chips, 5:1 so he would've had to double a few times to catch up. In any case, he did great! I am so proud of him. Harrah's is in a few weeks and I hope to cash in some tournies there as well.
Online the last few weeks has been a bit tough. I did final table three tournaments since Nov 1, but variance in general has not been on my side. Especially the last week- I feel like every flip I take, every time i have aa v kk i lose and then i get it in kk v aa, and lose, its just torture. But I will remain focused. I want so badly to finish the year at +100k net in poker; I have a lot of work to do to get that done (another 26k or so). I will let you know how I fare in this.
In other news, my niece Nicolette is such a little cutie pie, I love her so much. I go to see her as often as I can. Thanksgiving was wonderful- we spent it with Jon's family and then went to my family for dessert. Jon and I also spent a few days with my grandma, Nonna Carmela cooking and learning recipes- i liked that a lot. It was very nice to spend time with family. I like that Jon is close to his family like I am to mine.
Work has been busy; my partner Cesar got married this weekend- the day after thanksgiving. He will be away on his honeymoon, which means it will be a little busier for me. Jon and I went to look at a beautiful townhouse in Port Jefferson this weekend- I want it sooo soo bad. I really hope it is still on the market when our co-op finally sells. It may take a while.
That's it for now, hope you are all doing well.
xxxooo good luck at the tables!
Connie.
