Ready for Take-off
Done pretty well this month. Think I've only had 2 sessions where I lost more than a buyin, and I've been running very well on UB: my rating on MPI has jumped from 0.70 to 2.35bb/100 in just 2 months, which I'm very happy with. Also happy that I've been able to tangle with a few big fish, like the one who doubled me up over the weekend. I had JdJs in the big blind, and this fish first called an UTG raise, and then a preflop re-raise from me, holding.... the mighty 9h3s offsuit!!! I check-raised him on the As 2s 4s flop with my J-high flush draw (which he gladly called), and he called my allin when the 8s came on the turn. Amazingly his straight-flush didn't arrive on the river. Ship it.In other news, I've bitten the bullet and registered for the latest HUC, organised this time by the illustrious Alan. Now, I've only ever played HU when I've had a few drinks or the stakes have been small to tiny, but as was recently pointed out, how can I call myself a pro and not enter this competition? So I'm going to brush up on my HU skills and see what damage I can do to all the players I've come to know and respect in the blogosphere. Today the HUC, tomorrow the world!
Only 3 days left at work now though, and am more excited than something really excitable in an exciting situation. January has been a very successful month, and I'm ready for lots more during the rest of the year. Bring it on, I'm ready to go.....

Not to rain on your parade but I guess if you're gonna try to grind a living, you're gonna have to learn to take criticism too (not saying you don't... I'm just saying). You're gonna hve to do much better than 2.35bb/100. Make sure you watch some videos and do a lot more hand analysis. You need to be consistently getting PT 5BB/100.
HU rules - I hope I draw you in round 1 ...
Thanks for the comment Alan, but please don't worry. Over 2 big bets/100 should be enough for now: I've been averaging between $50-100ph for the last few months, and long as I don't dip too much think this will pay the bills and grow the bankroll.
Fuel, I'm gonna make you rue the day. I hope.
I am watching your Pro Career from the sidelines. Good luck!
