Hi my name is Sean, and I’ve been lurking Lp.net for about 3 years now. I really enjoy reading the hand histories, and seeing people get flamed on a regular basis. A little about myself; I am 22 years old I recently graduated from SUNY Cortland (upstate NY) with a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology with a concentration in Exercise Science as of May. After working at a sleep away camp in Maryland all summer I’ve moved back home with my Mom in Eastchester, NY, which is 20 mins from NYC. I am taking 12 credits at a nearby community college to fulfill requirements for Physical Therapy Graduate School.

Home life has been a lot different from College life. In College I lived in a house with 14 other male swimmer teammates. We would throw parties every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. At home its quite different most of my friends from High School stayed home and went to either a community college or got a full time job. Me, being 5 hours upstate and living a different lifest<x>yle lost touch with most of my old buddies. Now I’m home and life has been a lot less entertaining. I recently got accepted into the AmeriCorps, which is like the PeaceCorps except you do projects all around America. I will be stationed in Denver Colorado starting February 4th for 10 months. Since I’ve been home I decided to really hit the weights harder than I do in the off-season of swimming because I signed up to Firefight in Colorado. So, I’ve recently started going twice a day 6 days a week at the gym.

As for poker, I’ve been playing for about 3 years not very much however; I’ve probably made around 2k from playing 25nl. But since I’ve been home and dead broke, since no more money from throwing parties at college I decided to put the little I have ($200) on poker. I’ve been playing .05/.10 9 tabling 6 max since the beginning of October. I’ve played around 20k hands, but today I hit a –6buyin downswing. If you look at my recent hand histories, you’ll see that I put my money in every single time when I was ahead, but was drawn out. Oh well, that’s poker but at least I feel as though I’m playing well even if I end up in the red for the month.

As for today, I played about 2 hours, and now I’m going to the gym for the second time today with a friend then going to see the movie “Dan in Real Life” or something… the one with the 40-year old virgin guy. Then I might go to the bars or back here not too sure yet. But I will try and keep this blog updated if anyone is interested. And I will post some pics of myself shortly since I think it’s nice to have a blogger with a face. So stay tuned for that shortly
