Random September Thoughts

In an effort to retain my membership in the poker blogging community (Vegas is looming after all), I thought I'd put up a couple random thoughts. So, in no particular order:

  • For the first time since I started playing poker seriously (and was I really ever serious? Discuss amongst yourselves), I'm positive for the year and it's September! Of course, there's always a chance I'll dump my profits before Vegas. My Vegas trips for the WPBT have always been profitable despite never having cashed in the tournament, so look out.
  • I'm also profitable online on both FT and PS, although my PS BR took a big hit. I may have been drinking at the time.
  • I played one session of live poker where I ran so hot people were bidding on my seat when I vacated it.
  • I've gotten many interesting hands before, but this one was especially interesting. I was two tabling LHE Rush poker on FT. Both held up.


  • I've lost over 10 pounds in the month of September. No, I didn't cut off a body part. I've basically eliminated carbs and I've been in the gym at least 4 times a week. I'm even thinking about doing a duathalon in a couple weeks.
  • The Wife just got back from a week in Texas. During that time, I actually cooked several meals for the family, and they were all well received.
  • My marinated salmon steak was especially good.
  • Now that she's back, I will go back to eating and washing dishes. Cooking while she's here is way too stressful.
  • I'll be in Vegas at the end of October for continuing medical education from the 27th to the 30th. Who will be entertaining me when I get out of my conference?
  • I took this picture on my last FOG drive (FOG = Ferrari Owner's Group). I'm no photographer, but I'm especially proud of how this one came out. The cloud reflections are very cool. If possible, look at it full size.

You may now resume your lives.

I owe you and Bammer a REAL shot of scotch in Vegas. We'll partake perhaps before the tourney at Aria?

You're a wimp for not cooking when I'm around . . . I want some of that salmon.

I need to make sure I get to Vegas this year. In part for the whisky.
