Catching Up
So, for the unlucky few who read this blog on a regular basis, my apologies for my absence. It’s been a busy few weeks: 1. We moved into our new house, which definitely turned into a much larger project. More to come on this….
Let’s Fight Cancer (Subtitle: Lance Armstrong Continues to Amaze Me)
My friends know I’m an unabashed Lance Armstrong fan. I was amazed that, after years away from the toughest sporting event that exists, he was almost able to win it again this year. This encouraged me to go back to his website and do…

Tour de France
I have developed a passion for the Tour de France over the last 10 years. It started with Lance, but now extends to 30 or 40 riders in the field. I sometimes listen to David talk about horse racing in a way that shows…
OK, I’m Ready For This Week To Be Over

WSOP: Bust
So, I busted shortly before the dinner brk. Lost most of my chips AQ vs KK. Managed to double up next hand with AQ. On very next hand, in BB, folded to button. He’s been raising a lot, and goes to grab raising chips….
WSOP-2nd Break
The last 2 hours saw me switch tables twice. Treading water with 5300 in chips. First new table was crazy, happy to have moved on. Second new table seems passive, which should be good. 50 tables to break before we move again, so I…
WSOP 1500K Event
So, decided to play the 1500K event today. We started with 4500 in chips. In the first two hours, I was as high as 6700, as low as 2400. I laid down top pair on the turn, which felt like the right decision at…
