A little clarification: I know <a href=\"http:\/\/www.studioglyphic.com\/blog\/2004\/10\/cashing-out-again.html\">I said<\/a> I was swearing off online poker, but really I&#8217;ve sworn off playing ring games at Party. I&#8217;ve got a few dollars in my Pacific account and play a few low buy-in SNGs now and again because they require only an hour of my time and I need the practice. So all you nit-picky bastards should piss off! That&#8217;s right, I mean you, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.glasstrack.com\/blog\/\">Glasstrack<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eight23.blogspot.com\/\">eight23<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Talk about getting off-topic. I meant to go on about how I would ideally devote two-three hours every night (120-180 hands) to playing poker, but it&#8217;s just not really feasible at this point. My degree program has a 400 hour internship requirement, and since I didn&#8217;t do jackshit last year, I need to max out my internship hours from now until May to make sure I get it done. So far I&#8217;m just shy of the halfway mark, which means that I should have it cleared by January. A triumphant return to playing poker regularly would make a nice birthday present. Of course, as I&#8217;ve said before, winter break should give me a nice block of homework-free time (for better or worse) to devote to pounding the tables. Until then, it&#8217;ll be the weekly game, the blogger tourney, Vegas, and the occasional Pacific SNG here at StudioGlyphic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This self-imposed no-poker bullshit is driving me nuts.
