Hoopy stops procrastinating

I've been sailing, playing sport and generally spending loads of time outside in the sun relaxing and meditating. Not very conducive to playing poker but I love being outside.

Bought + read "Elements of Poker" and "Theory of Poker", will post thoughts on them in a few days.

That few days turned into a month somehow.

Life has been hectic recently (for me at least). I moved back to uni about 2-3 weeks ago and have gotten nicely settled in the new house. Seems decent bar a few minor things though I think it's going to be cold in winter due to not having much insulation.

Tried some different society's during freshers week but I'll probably stick to badminton and football and start going to the entrepreneurs society. There is a poker society though it only runs a turbo gamblefest MTT (40BB stack, 20min blinds and bad players). Hopefully they'll be some home games set up soon.

Also promised a friend I'd try to learn bass over the course of a year as they really need a bassist for the band, not exactly sure how it's going to go but I managed to pick up a surprisingly decent acoustic dirt cheap. If it goes well I'll look at buying a good electric + amp.

This year I'll need to have self discipline as I only have 9 hours weekly +Mon/Frid off. Big project this year all to do with Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation.

Anyway I played some poker today, one interesting hand, guy is a random unknown. 2 streets is too thin here? Sizing?
