Hectic week over, but upcoming hectic week just beginning

Well, I haven't updated this blog in a while. Mainly due to my school studies. Midterms and project flying left and right, I had no time to play poker. But after completing my last midterm for this week, I still have one next week, I was able to get in some poker. I lost a $20+2 (180 man SNG), a $10+1 O/8, and then a $20+2 nightly. I then start doing some other things, and next thing I know its 3am, and the $10+1 is starting up. Having nothing to do, I jumped into it. I then signed up for the $1+0.10 PLHE to get more tables going. I busted out before the break in the $10, but continued to play the PLHE. After playing pretty well for the next 3 hours, I was at the final table with second in chips. I never looked at the payout, as I didn't want it to effect my play. I eventually got HU agains the chipleader (him holding a 5:1 edge). The HU match lasted about 30 hands, one with me going all in the flop leading and him calling his up and down, only to have it go runner runner straight chop (I was ahead on all streets). The final hand was me SS potting ATo pf. He called, I pushed T6x flop and he calls T6 GG me. I checked the payout, $45 (4500% profit), but still -$20 ish for the day :P
