So two weeks ago we had what is called "Carnival" at Carnegie Mellon U. It's a shit show for 4-6 days where all you do is drink and party (I say 4-6 because carnival for me starts on Tuesday while the rest of CMU starts carnival on Thursday). Every party had a theme and every theme was awesome. Wednesday we had the 3rd annual Tom Selleck mustache bash (which was pre-themed by ribs and 40s), Thursday was a Luau, Friday started with us at the Pavillion all day (The pavillion is in a park where we killed about 20 kegs) and then went to Acapulco Nights where we had an ice luge which looked like the devil from Acapulco (Taking shots from this thing might have been one of the greatest experiences of my life). Saturday was our 3rd annual Alumni Golf outing followed by Boom Booms (a local bar). All and all it was a great time. It is nice whenever a big academic school like CMU can party like a state school.
Oh Poker...I won another tournament last weekend. It was one of the big daily doubles on Full Tilt. I happen to like all the daily doubles on FTP. The structures are very good and most of the people who play on them are not very good at all. They either play too fast the whole tournament or they play too conservative for too long and they get blinded out. It is hard to balance those two styles in order to get optimal play, but it is something that I have worked very hard on and it seems that my style is paying off in tournaments. On the flip side of that, I think that my cash game skills have deteriorated a bit from playing all these tournaments. Before I go to Vegas this summer, I am going to need to watch a lot of videos and read some NL cash books so I don't get destroyed in cash games at the RIO.
Well that's all for now. Hopefully I can post another win or two before I go back to Cali.
