Poker, Podcasts and WSOP Planning!

Save for Later

Wow, things are getting crazy busy. The year started of pretty good in terms of poker, butting it lots of volume and had a couple of decent scores. Finally shipped the Nightly $60 on Merge which is a tournament that seems to give me fits late, so it was nice to get that monkey off my back.  But then things kind of went south and I went on a bit of a downswing. have turned it around lately with some decent scores in the Winning $22 6max and the Nightly $33 on Merge, but still need to play better and run better if I’m going to meet my 2014 goals.  Getting in good volume, so I am happy with that.  Just need to keep working to improve my game.  Been talking a ton of poker with Marc “aznAllin007” Alioto and that seems to be helping my game a ton.  Plus we talk each other off the tilt ledge on a regular basis.

In other news, Tournament Poker Edge just launched a new podcast called “Midstakes Living”.  Very excited to be doing this podcast with Matt “theginger45” Hunt. He’s a smart poker player and, as I discovered after we recorded episode one, a natural interviewer. So he should make my job on this new project pretty easy!  Check out the first episode with MTT legend mement_mori.

We are also deep in the planning process for this summer’s WSOP.  We have re-booked the same house we had last year which was especially awesome because of it’s close proximity to The Rio.  I’ve started putting my schedule together which will include the Main Event for the first time ever!  Could not be more excited about that!!  In the meantime, I will be playing 4 events at the WSOP Circuit event in Cherokee, NC.  Really enjoyed my time there last year, so looking forward to getting back again this year and hopefully shipping something!  If nothing else, at least I will get to hang out with Loxxii!

Good luck everyone and see you at the tables!
