Wake me up when September ends

September is all finished now and so I figured I’d give a little update for how the month went.

Poker wise it was okay. When I played I generally did well although the volume continues to be my biggest enemy. I did play 4-5 live sessions which count for hours but not so much for hands and actual volume. I also booked several coaching packages which are both profitable but also really fun/keep my game sharp. I find coaching to be a pretty valuable way for me to think outside the box about certain things and always be critical of how I’m thinking/playing the game to make sure I’m relaying good information to my clients (and friends). Online went fairly well too, I won when I played. Besides breaking even in tourneys where I missed out on a couple deepish runs I’d say the month, poker wise, was a success minus the volume being lackluster.

I’ve really decided that this month there will be no booking wins or anything like that, just sit down 4-6 days/week and grind my 4-6 hours.

Outside of poker I have been doing alot of reading. I read daily, though the amount each day varies. I’m closing in on the end of “endgame the calling” by Frey. It’s quite good and I’m looking forward to the next installment. Reminds me alot of the hunger games type of series. Once that’s done I’ll have to evaluate what I’ll read next, but I think I’ll take a look at some top 100 lists and get cracking on those.

Sports wise the Patriots are looking amazing and I’m really hoping for a repeat. I think they’re the class of the AFC and Brady’s start to this season has been absurd (he’s the clearcut MVP frontrunner as of now). Other then that the NHL season is set to start on the 7th. Pretty excited, although I don’t expect amazing things from Philly this year. Once our plethora of D prospects gets a bit older and into the bigs I think we’ll be a team to contend for years to come.

Katherine’s Birthday was a few days ago and was overall a good time. Pretty crazy how fast these last three years have gone, and I definitely wouldn’t trade them for anything.

Halloween coming up as well which means Halloween haunt at wonderland! I think we’re doing Most interesting man in the world/Dos Equis bottle for our costumes this year, but it’s not set in stone.

Otherwise not much else is new, just a recap of the goings on for the month.

See you soon
Jordan
