So I just finished finals last Friday and it feels so gratifying to be done. But more than just feeling good about finishing, this year I actually left the tests feeling good about my performance. Meaning I felt that I could of possibly got a 100% on one of the finals that I took, which is incredible coming from a guy that started his college career with a 1.22 GPA. With that being said, there is no guarantee that I got A's in any of those classes because I do not know what any of the curves are for the final grade, but as long as I am close to the 3.0 mark I am happy about my performance.
I think that most people go on a binge for a week or two after they finish finals (when I say binge, I do not necessarily mean they go out drinking every night, more of the idea that they become lazy and unmotivated when their finals conclude). After my last final on Friday, I went out drinking and then did nothing productive on Saturday, but yesterday I went to the library and I continued reading Scott Fischman's book, "Online Ace." I want to make my Vegas trip very productive and it is obvious to me that the only way to do that is to spend a lot of time preparing and studying for the WSOP. Binging from now to the time I go to Vegas would be the worst thing that I could possibly do.
So, I am going to set my goals high when it comes to preparation. For just this week, I want to watch 30 poker videos and finish reading the Harrington on Hold'em series and also finish three other books that are more directed to the psychology of poker. I think that I am going to read and study until I get back to California at the end of the month and then put as much of that information to work and play in tons of live MTTs.
