| Currently Playing: | Dissidia: Final Fantasy (PSP) |
On Saturday I crossed the 800k VPP mark, clearing what will be my final milestone bonus of the year. This one is worth $7,200, $8k minus the $800 worth of FPPs is costs to purchase.
Unfortunately, the month so far has been as bad a stretch as I've had in my poker career, including what I believe to be my worst downswing ever (or at best, in a tie for that honor). It would be really nice to occasionally get the money in as a 5:1, 10:1, or 19:1 favorite and win. I was able to get all-in vs fish with no pair no draw (max any of them had was an overcard, so 3 outs or less) five times on Saturday, and lost all five. It's so sick to see a fish flip over K9 on an AT2r board versus my TT and know I'm a huge underdog versus the back door straight draw.
My last hand before shutting down my session on Sunday, I got AA in vs QQ on an A high board (most of the money went in preflop, he was a 50bb stack and really couldn't fold any flop). Of course, runner runner perfect perfect quads meant I can't even win as a 989:1 favorite.
Outside of poker, I've been playing a lot of Dissidia lately and thoroughly enjoying it. There's a ton of unlockables to work towards, and I'm starting to get quite skilled playing Cecil and Terra, my two favorite FF protagonists (technically I'd argue Terra isn't the protagonist of FFVI, but I digress). I've still got Black Sigil for the DS waiting to be played, and Disgaea 2: Dark Hero days for the PSP will be coming out soon. On top of that, Aion will launch on the 20th, and will likely eat up a bunch of my gaming time. I guess I can't complain about lack of options.
