Carbon Poker Cash Games not as Juicy anymore

Ever since April 15 when Full Tilt & Pokerstars shut out USA players due to the FBI (see post from April), Carbon Poker Cash Games have gone downhill. It used to be easy to find a table with an average pot size of around 20$ for .5/1 NL, now they are all around 12-14$. I assume this is due to the cash game players migrating over from FT and PS.

Compressed course + lazy prof; not a good combo

So I had my first compressed course experience this summer. going into the 40% exam, everyone only knew 27% of their mark.

Now the prof says he will mark it by Monday (which actually means he might mark it by Sunday). We have also submitted 3 assignments that he has not marked....and may not mark at all. So this 27% of my mark really does not reflect my performance in this course, yet he might weigh it a lot heavier than it is just because he won't mark the 3 assignments that are worth 30% of our grade. Luckily I think I aced the exam.

What to do..what to do...must influence the prof that the part he didn't mark is awesome
