Day One of The Education

Off to a decent start - I spotted some WSOP coverage on ESPN and at the same time played a bit on the Kindle.

Playing: 30 minutes, WSOP app
Reading: none
Watching: 2 hours 2102 ME coverage on ESPN

While watching, I came up with a couple items I need to work on, and which I am going to work on during the next SFPT tournament (which I consider to be a step closer to reality than playing online for fake money). 

10k update: 71.75 online play-money hours, 201 total hours

I have decided that when I am permitted to play online for real money, this will constitue a separate column in the 10k spreadsheet.  It may be that once that day comes (probably years from now), I stop playing for play money altogether, but who knows.

An aside: I do have some hope that with NJ set to go live with real-money poker in the fall of this year, NY might not be too far behind.  One of the state reps (King) is known to be a proponent of online poker, and there is also (I'm hoping) a bit of the big brother/little brother dynamic that won't allow Little Brother to have something Big Brother doesn't have.  Additionally, since the governor has long been in favor of brick and mortar casinos (making him clearly NOT anti-gambling), there is chance he may be swayed in favor of online gaming by the revenue it could bring.
