Outright Win in Sunday Mulligan

by Shannon Shorr | Published: Jan 11, '09

Pretty decent Sunday online. It's about 1:30 a.m. central time, and I just outright won the Sunday Mulligan on Full Tilt Poker for about 49000 dollars. I had 3 other cashes on the day including a 20th place in the 200 rebuy on Stars. The Mulligan win felt really nice. I played an outstanding young player name Scott "stpauli111" Hall heads up and was fortunate to have a 2:1 chiplead when we got to that point. I ran pretty hot too, which is obviously a necessity. It's really nice to post a nice win after my miserable showing in Nassau. I won the Mulligan some 18 months ago as well. Thanks for those of you who were on the rail supporting me.

I'm writing from Birmingham. Tomorrow, morning I'm gonna head down to Tuscaloosa and start getting prepared for my Tuesday classes. I have to get groceries, pick up all my textbooks, and do a bunch of other random stuff. I look forward to challenging myself with another semester. Also, I'll begin a strenuous workout routine tomorrow. My buddy Mike Katz and I have organized a gym prop bet through March 31st. For the pro-rated month of January, we'll have to get 12 workouts in. For February, 16 workouts are required. For March, 18 workouts are required. If either of us does not get his required workouts in each any then we'll be required to pay the other a substantial amount of money. Without stating the amount, it's a number that will sting if we have to fork it over. I'm also hoping that this will help me cut down on my alcohol intake significantly. That's all for now. More updates soon.
