1 down, 2 to go!

Could've gone a lot worse that exam, could've gone better though :P I managed to (sort of) answer all the questions and with our 74% Presentation mark and (hopefully) a 2:1 in the practical exam for that module I should get a decent mark in it overall :)

Back to revision for a few hours now, then i'll take a short break, surf the internet for a few hours and play a session Unfortunately i've got to get back on the revision all tomorrow and Sunday :(

Wow, absolutely loving this SH game It's so damn fun!

Played just under 1k hands tonight, first session was really short as I got coerced into playing FIFA for a while so cut it short, but ended that nearly 300bb up thanks to running super hot. In the 2nd session things didn't go as well, I spewed off one stack stupidly (Need to fucking cut that out!) and then started running pretty badly. Made a sick read against a fish, I had AK in 3bet pot (He was calling all 3bets with anything), flop was 88T or something and he snap shoved over the top of my Cbet. I tank called and he had J6 Unfortunately he turned a 6 and took the pot.

Anyway, things went well towards the end, a few of my tables broke so I ended up playing HU vs some fish that joined me whilst I was sitting all alone. First all in of that little HU session I lost a stack after getting sucked out on but I kept my composure and valuetowned him, and took my stack back and then his So in the end, after being nearly 300bb down that session I brought it up and ended just over 50bb up

So the month has started pretty well in poker terms:

Hands Played - 2046

Profit - +$144.24

Profit With Rakeback - +$144.24 + ~500FPPs

VPP Earned (Monthly) - 322

VPP Earned (Annually) - 17,412

Back to revision tomorrow though :( Might just squeeze a session in tomorrow night if I can ship a shitload of revision during the day. I want to have at least 10k hands under my belt at NL25 SH before I think of moving up to NL50, and a BR of at least $1.1k.

I have 10% of a friend in the Sunday Million tonight. ONE TIME, PLEASE ONE TIME!

As for me, i'm revising (slowly) for my exam tomorrow. I need the right questions to come up otherwise i'm screwed.

I also played a session last night, won again _cool: I've now played 6 sessions this month and profited in all of them Running at about 27bb/100 And my BR is back over the $1k mark :)

Wooo, friend just doubled in the Mil :)

Oh dear, I revised until 4am last night, slept for 3 hours, got up and revised some more for my exam at 9.30am this morning. "But Wriggers, why are you back so early?" I hear you asking, well, this is how it goes.

I head off to my exam with my flatmate, we're meant to be in the same room for it. I get there, my module code isn't on any of the sheets outside the room, oh dear what is going on? I check my exam timetable on one of the workstations outside. Yep ty gg my exam is tomorrow.

So now I have to decide whether to revise for my exam tomorrow, revise for my exam on Wednesday, or go to sleep for a few hours and revise for both of them later on :f_mad: :f_mad:

Well, when I eventually got the right day for my exam is seemed to go pretty well :) Decent questions came up and i'm sure i've at least passed it Unfortunately I then came home and slept for 3 hours, which means i'm way behind on my revision for tomorrow's exam. Fortunately we got given the questions a while ago and the 2 i'm going to pick are things i'm quite familiar with. But I basically have to write 2 essays now and remember them Off we go, and back on the felt tomorrow (Unless I go out and get fucked up! )

Certainly not standard. Yeah in our last lecture our lecturer gave us the questions as he said he's tried it both ways, not giving them and giving them and in his experience, it makes not one bit of difference Apparently all it does is make the ones who understand it shine, whereas the ones who don't understand still won't understand it. Hopefully i'm in the former category

It's over... Undergraduate degree finished. I did obviously turn up late to the exam because my timetable was wrong :f_mad: :f_mad: But only 5 mins late, finished with 2 mins to spare and proceeded to uncontrollably smile at the fact I can come home and not revise

I'm in, i've got a beer open, i've got dubstep blaring, and i'm going out to get hammered tonight. Life. Is. Good.

Glad to hear it _cool:

Back from the pub to get a shower, then we go out and have a quadruple celebration. I've finished Uni. My mate has finished Uni. It's my other mate's birthday and he has just secured a job placement

Celebrations ftw _cool:

Sooooo hungover! Quality night though, we went to a house party, didn't take any beers, just spirits :f_biggrin:

Btw, Creme de Menthe mixed with Amarullo is THE best tasting shot you'll ever have! It takes like melted mint choc chip ice cream

Then off to the trebles bar we went, where I proceeded to stay for the whole night, drinking treble vodka + red bulls and chatting shit with randoms in the smoking area Oh how i've missed that.

Eventually the trebles bar closed, so off I jolly well trotted to the casino, and sat at the NL50 table. Don't remember much of this, I remember pulling off a bluff with QJ on a Txxx board for about a 50bb pot. But it would seem I doubled at some point, as i've got £120 in my wallet

Then got a doner wrap like a balla and walked home

So god damn hungover today, just have to hope I recover by tonight so I can grind
