July=New Start

After the horrible month that was June I am looking forward to July & new beginnings.  Selfishly I have not blogged in a while because I was steaming too much & didn't feel I had too much to share.  But after meeting some of my "fellow" bloggers at both the AVP Meet & the TBC Meet I have decided to get back at it.

I want to blog more about my mental state in poker as well as general goings on around Las Vegas. I would like this blog to be more theraputic for me personally, even though I am putting it out there in public.  I have been reading Jared Tendler's book in an attempt to get more in touch with why I tilt & want to berate other fish for their awful play, which lately has ended up losing me money.

A quick update of the month of June, which I want to forget as soon as possible: ended up losing almost $900 in play, along with my expenses made it a terrible month.  Bankroll is still strong, around $13k, so I'm not completely stressing yet.  I was going to start taking shots at 2-5 at $15k but went back on a losing streak.

Anyway, thanks for your patience and jump back on the bandwagon!

    Yeah, this is pretty therapeutic - you have to think through what you write... ;)

      Wait-wut?
      You have to think about what you write?
      I've been doing it wrong all this time.

    Question that may serve to distract. Have you joined the various player clubs and do they earn you anything interesting?

      I am a member of the MGM, Caesars Entertainment (CET), and Wynn clubs. Most places offer $1/hr. of play, though Aria & Wynn offer $2/hr. MGM properties are casino-specific and CET's are CET-wide, so even though I might play at Harrah's I can use the points at Earl of Sandwich in Planet Hollywood. So, if nothing else, I usually get free food at Aria and CET properties.

      Um, no, not like someone else we know. Mine is securely in a bank.

      One day I'm going to try this Bankroll concept that you all seem to talk about all the time.
