And networks in particular. Been spending the last 6 hours or so trying to get my fucking computer to access the internet. It all started a few days ago when I couldn't get out and I had to fuck around with static IPs and crap to get it to work. This might not sound much, but when you're totally worthless with technology to the point that your roommate hardly lets you use the remote to the TV it's hard as hell. Now a couple of days later my computer decided to refuse to acknowledge the existence of that weird thing that's more commonly known as "the internet". Two trips to the computer store, a new network setup and some very annoying bitching with my (very aggressive, rude and overall not very trustying) firewall later I've got my internet back. My guess is that the problem was the the old network was set up by some really fucking stupid 17 y/o (me, anno 2003) without any computer knowledge what so ever and the motto; "If you can't solve it with violence, try more violence. Or duck tape". You'd be amazed of what kinds of cables you can fit into different kinds of sockets using a decent knife to prepare them.

Good things: Ended in the green as far as hold'em goes. Like 800€. Played a ton of hands (60k) and will probably get like 6.5k-7k in rakeback. Think I lost like 4k in donkaments and omaha though, almost bustoed my FTP account. Got a jacket and a hat from FTP for my FT at that FTOPs thingy though. Had a brutal downswing mid month (25ish bi?), then a big rush and in the end it was just a lot of swings. I think I ran a fair bit over ev in allin situation but when you get into a couple of cooler situations and run cold at high stakes it doesn't really help. My shots at 10/20 (really good games) lost me a fair bit of money but nothing to big. I think I'll try to grind only 3/6 and 5/10 for this month unless I hit another heater. Would me nice to pad the bankroll at little bit more before I try to get up to higher stakes. I'll grind my ass of next month too and I think I've might've figured out a concept that will allow me to increase my profit/hour pretty nicely.

I also think that I'm a slightly better pokerplayer now then a month ago. Hadn't really learned anything important in a few months but this time around I feel that I've gotten the hang of a few important things and am on my way to discover a couple of others.

Overall I feel pretty good about poker in general. I've started working out a bit too again and I finally feel that I'm on my way back to be as strong as I was half a year ago. Got sick mid month and that fucked things up a bit but now I'm back on track again. Really looking forward to seeing Transformers 2 tomorrow too. That movie feels like something really sick, even though the critics hasn't been kind. I am, however, a simple man and I don't need more then the essentials in movies, or in life for that matter. A frind of mine once said that all he needed in life was "Hem, Hona och Hagelgevไr" (Home, Female and Shotgun) and preferably adequate protection against feminists and zombies. Lately I've been thinking of that and even if I'd personally put it in other words it's a pretty nice way of looking at life. Sure you want to spice it up a bit and see different countries and such, but in the end it'd be nice to have it all figured out at home.

Also, I can't post hands for some reason, anyone else have problems with that?
