You don't always have to move all-in...

Life is always a gamble. Sometimes it doesn't matter if you win or lose, but it's about the thrill, the action and making sound choices in life. So far, great choices, average results (imagine 60/40 decisions with 40% results).

Hot time....summer in the city

Yeah yeah, it's hot all over the US this summer. You know what? There are few places that are as hot, for as long, as it is in Houston, Texas. Friday, I take off 1/2 day to play golf and it is just a struggle to slap it around for four hours. We played out at Meadowbrook Farms and it was good golf with good company. I actually smacked the crap out of the driver that day, scored decently (OK 91 is good lately), and nearly got another hole in one (2 1/2 feet long on a par 3). Yes, I made the putt.

The sun took so much out of me that I didn't even go out that night.....however, I did play poker (of course). The inital 2 Sng's worked out great, a 1st and a 3rd. The rest of the night was par, netting a slight loss on 2 busted Sngs and several NL ring games. After many glasses of wine, I did fire up the crack machine again (much to Andrea's chagrin) and after a mighty loss (of epic proportions) I crawled back to par while betting $60/hand on a nice run. Yikes, that crack machine is not good, but I love it.

Actually, cashing in those inital 2 initial Sngs, I crossed the threshhold back to the black for the 1st time in quite a while. I'm grinding away at the NL cash game level as I really ran bad the 1st 6 months of this year....I can do it, but I've got a long way to go in the cash games.

Limit? I never play limit online anymore. I only play limit live at home or in Casinos. I'll certainly play a lot of 1-2 NL when I go to Vegas at the end of the month.

Yes, I'm going to Vegas at the end of the month. It's a fraternity reunion where we'll have 15-20 people convening on Vegas for a fantasy football draft. I'm staying 4 nights, so I should get in a lot of cards....

The rest of the weekend you say? Saturday was filled with watching Clerks twice (directors commentary included for prepping to see Clerks 2), doing domestic shopping, a nice meal at Spaghetti Western (check it out), and a visit to see PJ with a good amount of wine involved.

Sunday was a bit of the same, going to the club to have lunch and run some errands with Andrea. Maybe get in to see Clerks 2 (snoochie boochies!), or that Decend horror flick that has a trailer for SAW III.....I love that franchise.
