Just thought I'd share a bit of what I've been up to lately. As I've mentioned I've been playing the cash games here. I haven't had a losing session thus far. In fact, the last game I got into, I was a 10.10$ winner before the game broke. Wohoo. Men the "master" was there again. Talking to a young Frenchman about him while Men was in the bathroom, he believes Men is busto. Hasn't been showing up to the games in Vegas lately.
No ****. Poker has changed, and the old timers are getting left behind. Players like him and Sammy Farha had what it takes to beat the fat businessmen 10 years ago but they cannot compete in today's environment.
Just saw an interesting Ted-x about poker here

The information presented may not be new to those of you that are poker pros or that have studied game theory but it's spoken well.
Began studying Vietnamese. And it's not at all easy. In fact, it's quite difficult.
Bought my first Graham Greene book today, the Quiet American. Though I'm not familiar with his work, Graham Greene is cited as the inspiration of several of my favorite authors, so I imagine he's a skilled writer. This story takes place in Saigon, so that adds to my interest in it.
I'm moving into my new place tomorrow. I've had enough of staying in this hotel.
Still working on getting up and running on Pokerstars and Fulltilt. It takes too long to get verified IMO. Still, I should be up soon. Got my bank account here all set up and everything.
Still haven't bought a bike. Haven't found the perfect one. Maybe I'll import something stupid like a Ducati. Nah, I should be practical, I think, and get a cheap moto. Anything nice will just get stolen probably.
The coffee here is awesome. Get it iced with milk. Or hot and black. Very strong, bold flavors. The Caffeine can become addictive though.
Been missing Vegas lately, so I tried getting back into Fallout: New Vegas. Unfortunately that game keeps freezing on my laptop. Can't tell if it's my laptop or the game's fault. It never happens on my desktop, which is in Vegas
Whatever your political affiliations are, the elections appear to be good news for online poker. Though it's not very in depth, this article explains more
