I am back from another trip

Well I have certainly neglected LJ these past several days/weeks. I had great time at Barge visiting all my great RGP (rec.gambling.poker newsgroup) old and new friends. And I did decently in the cash games and in the NL HE main event (8th place finish out of 218 entrants).

And last week I flew with Debbie to Texas (Corpus Christi area) to spend some time with her parents. They just bought a new fifth wheel and a nice big Dodge diesel truck to haul this new home. It was a fun time had by all. Lots of good eating and a fun side trip to San Antonio's Sea World park. I must admit that I had fun but I am damn glad to be back home in the Las Vegas valley again.

Today I was back at the poker tables trying to make a few bucks. I won $899- in about three hours playing $2-5 No Limit Holdem at Bellagio. I am still wondering if I can make this a profession or not. Only time will tell if I can make enough at poker or not. For now I am just calling it a test run until I got enough data...

Additionally, I just switched my primary LJ email addy to see if that fixes my LJ auto replies or not. I must admit that when I switched to my primary personal email address I was not happy when I stopped getting my LJ replies automatically. I figure if I switch to my secondary hotmail account this might fix the problem.

Finally I am glad it is almost time for the regular college and NFL football seasons to start as I am just love football!!!

Thanx for the heads up SK! And good luck with your new life after the divorce... Ever since I have known you this decision seemed liked it was going to happen. You have been added to my friend's list now.

As your friend I just want to see you as happy as you can be Kristi!!!

Feel free to email me privately if you feel the urge - and again best of luck.

If my observations during BARGE are any indication, Adam, you can easily make a living in LV playing poker. The NL games all appeared to be gold-mines for hte patient / aggressive.

Some time when you are up a bit, try playing a week or two of the Bellagio 2PM $500+40. The final table had one (1) person I could clearly identify as knowing what he was doing. Holy overlays batman! (I got 7th, paid 5 when my A9s ran into KTo - poker, blech)

Steve,

It was great seeing you again at Barge! Thanks for your vote of confidence. I do plan to play in a few more tourneys after I build the old bankroll a bit...

Good plan my man. I doubt you'll have any trouble knocking them dead. Just remember to make it fun for the tourists - you are in the entertainment business now. :)

It was great seeing you as well at BARGE. As I was leavingn I regretted all the chances I didn't get to share a meal and chat with my friends. Obviously you were among them.

I am hoping to get to Vegas some time before next BARGE and I will obviously look you up when I do. In the mean time, winning hands to you my friend.
