Since I got back in Alabama a little over a week ago, not much has been going on. I spent a couple days in Birmingham hanging out with my dad and then headed down to Tuscaloosa to begin work on my online finance class. As I mentioned, I waited until the last minute to begin the work on this class, and I have to have everything completed by next Friday. This week I managed to take 15 quizzes and 2 exams. I averaged like an 85 on the 2 exams, so that's pretty satisfying. I have two more exams to take next week and then I'll get 10 days off before the fall semester begins.
The only other activity I've taken part in lately is the 7 game mix cash games on Full Tilt. For those that don't know, this cash game is a rotation of 7 games that include NLHE, PLO, LHE, Stud Hi/Lo, Razz, Omaha Hi/Lo and Stud in that order. I've been playing the $40/80 game ($10/20 blinds in NLHE and PLO) mostly and likely won't play any bigger for a while as I'm trying to gain as much experience possible in the other games for as cheap a price as possible. I was actually up slightly until a couple of horrific last two days. I'm not exactly gonna become a grinder, but I will spend some time over the next several months playing these games. NLHE is really dead right now, so it can't hurt to get good at these games.
I've gotten a few emails asking if I have a link to the WPT Championship Final table episode on which I appeared. I do. It can be found in 4 parts:

That's all I got. Blogs are probably gonna be pretty boring and pretty rare for a while as there won't be much going on in my life.
