Mixed emotions.

Chilling out in Vegas as I write this blog. It has been awesome yet I have had to deal with the emotions of being seperated from my family for the 1st tie in a real long time. To add to that we just moved in together and my son was just growin used to seeing me every morning and night. The hardest thing has been knowing how much he is missing me and not being able to do much about it. The only thing keeping me together is knowing that he has the best mom in the world there to keep him together till I get back.

Ok enough emo, how about Vegas? The place sucks. I mean that too. I mean it is awesome under the right cirumstance but at my age(27) with a family back home it isnt the same. I have over indulged in the food department just in time to get fat for my trip to Hawaii. The best part is the house and the housemates. It has been an amazing experiece and I have been fortunate enough to meet some real cool fucking dudes. The best part of the trip and the thing I looked most forward to previous to arriving was meeting Jason and his family( http://blitzpoker.blogspot.com/ ). They were kind enough to take 3 of us to heir home in Lake Havaseu Az and take us on an amazing boating trip. Hands down the sweetest boating experience I have ever had( http://dodgyken.blogspot.com/2008/06/boating-with-luckysob.html ).

In the poker department this month has been decent, 2/4 is going well thus far though it has been over a small sample. I havent been able to grind to much while mout here as I am on my 13 inch lap top whic isnt very good for playing on. I did crush a 2/4 session and had a long boring losing 1/2 session. I dabbled in some PLO today and will most likely continue just to add to my arsenal. Well thats all I got. Not the greatest post but I will try and make some more descriptive posts of the highlights of this trip when I get back from Hawaii.

10K at 1/2

I ran hotter then lava till my -7BI day today to close out the 10K hands. How fucking sweet it is. I am quite disgusted to be honest. The good thing is it will catch back up with me on the move. YEAH. Now for the graphs.

Quick update and a few hands.

So I have been playing my Laggier style down at 1/2 and fine tuning my leaks which I acquired at 2/4. I am stealing more and generally playing more aggressive with position. I am table selecting like mad obv and am back to 4 tables only(ok sometimes 5). I am looking forward to posting a nice update in 5k hands with some graphs and shit. Hopefully that will be by the end of the week or early next. One last thing I have semi decided is that I wont be playing much weekend poker anymore. Instead I will be hanging with my family and enjoying life. Poker is good to me during the week.

OOPS, we had been battling and I took a stand. I had decent equity anyways.
