Take the good with the bad

Well, my 2 main sites i use are going in opposite directions. While my pokerstars account keeps going up, my fulltilt account keeps shrinking. Didn't play too much today, but came in 2nd in a 45 man sng on stars for $100 ( i lost heads up to a guy whos sharkscope was comical!! He had like a -45 ROI, and was currently on "super tilt", i got it all in pre flop twice with the best of it, both times was sucked out on, and just couldn't recover). Also won like $120 playing cash games. Bascially won it all on one hand. UTG made it 3, i had QQ in middle position, i just called, and the button re raised to 5 (i won't even start on how bad of a play this is). Flop comes QJ9, but all hearts. UTG checks, i check, button bets pot (i'm no longer worried about him having AK of hearts seeing he bet so much), so utg folds, and i make it 75, button goes all in, of course i call, he has AA, but with the A of hearts, somehow it holds, and i took down a monster pot. It's nice when the bets hand actually holds! Fulltilt on the other hand....was stuck like 50 playing cash games...if it weren't for the iron man system that i'm trying to qualify for, i would literally take a week off of fulltilt, but i only have to earn 100 points 3 more times this month, so i should probably stick it out.

Off topic but i think its just hilarious at the gym when u see a guy in his 50's, who in his prime, was probably in pretty good shape, if not a tank, but now, he's just fat, sloppy, and in terrible shape, BUT he walks around the gym like he's Arnold at the peak of his bodybuilding days lol There is this one old guy who i see at least once a week who fits this description to a tee!! I swear if you look at him the wrong way, he'll probably try to fight you. He wears a tanktop which he looks AWFUL in, puts WAY too much weight on the benchpress just to pump out 2 cheat reps, while screaming, and he has his socks pulled up to his knees (with shorts), like he's getting ready to go play baseball. Anyway, i think there is a guy like this at every gym and it's just sad!

Ok, got the Michigan/Illinois game and the baseball game on now...a great tv night!
