Can’t say that I’ve been all too happy about the timing of starting a new career around Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. Fortunately, I fully intended December to be the ‘test’ month. My schedule is coming together and seems more ‘normal’ as the days go by.
Played a crazy session at Garden City tonight. The highlight [...]

Wednesday January 20th to Sunday the 24th. This will be my first ‘bidniss trip’. There are a couple conventions in town that tipped my decision for these dates: International Builders Show and the Shooting, Hunting, & Outdoor trade show. That puts 100,000 more tough guys in Vegas than normal. I’m hoping that makes good tables [...]

Sorry. I didn’t play poker Sunday. Oh, wait, late Saturday night becomes Sunday, no? Holy Shit!! I stand corrected. I played poker Sunday. Now, let me think….where was it…..oh yeah, Casey’s house for our regular WSOP league. I’m doing well in the league and will probably get a seat to a $1000 event in June….but [...]

Back in ‘04/’05 when I played limit poker I’d gone to Garden City many times. I remember the first time like a little kid remembers a Christmas tree. To a two and a half foot kid any decent sized tree looks like the biggest [...]

I wanted to do a review of Garden City in this episode. I still could. But I won’t. You wanna know why? Because I fucked up. I should have known better and this is part of trying to become a professional poker player that I’m simply going to have to come to terms with.
If you [...]

Poker is going well. I’m still grinding out online with expected results. I’m working on improving my volume now. It’s harder than I thought it would be to get the number of hands in per day that I need. After ten years of working on a schedule that was defined for me, I’m back to [...]

The only thing I really have to write about at the moment is my new computer. Before that, I’d like to mention that:
iPhones are the fifth limb. And Pandora has no equal. Seriously. Like music? Get an iPhone and install Pandora. Life is complete.
I went to a small tourney/cash game tonight at Casey’s. We played [...]
