Not really sure why, but I created this blog today. It's not like there's ever much that I really feel all that compelled to write about.
I did just get back from Vegas last Friday after a week of poker and beer, so I guess there's a story or two there (not that all will be told here
). The best part I can tell about was coming back with as much money as I took. Considering free eats (via poker room comps), I guess I was actually ahead for the week. Not bad considering the last two years in Vegas were less than stellar.
Here's something that finally sunk in this year....most poker tournaments out there are impossible to have consistent success with. Between, the blind structures and uber-donkeys you're playing with, it's better to just go sit at the cash games and wait for a couple "gambling tourists" to get in the game. Per my observations, patience is the key, because it's only a matter of time before they are separated from their chipstack. Granted, occasionally they're going to get lucky and bust someone up, but those times are usually the exception to the rule and even if they do get lucky once or twice, they'll still give it back in the long run.
That's all I have for now. I think my brain has gone on vacation now that my body has returned. I think that getting a paid week off to recover from a vacation in Las Vegas should be law.
