Well I finally feel like I am back to playing great poker.  I realized I was playing too many hands out of position, not re-raising enough, and calling too light on the flop.  It feels so good to put in enough time and energy and actually be able to figure out what I was doing wrong- and then apply it.  I have been on a pretty good rush on FullTilt.. up about 23k this week and up about 2k on UB.  However, I wasn’t just playing 2/4… I have played almost exclusively 5/10 and I have played some short stack 25/50; which was probably a bad idea but every time I have gotten it all in, I AM WAYYY AHEAD.. so I am up pretty good for the short stacking 25/50.

I am really enjoying my time out here in Vegas.  I am not sure if I could live out here exclusively or not but I might look into getting a place out here and keep my place downtown as well.  One thing I don’t like about being on the road is that the only time I eat is during a meal, that means like NO SNACKING and every meal is like a stomach stuffer, which is fine but its not very good for the diet. 

I am going to try to play one of the NL events at Caesars before I leave but I’m not sure if I will have enough time since Emily is getting into town today and I don’t wanna leave her hanging.  My friend Jeanine Deeb is a half Lebanese and I guess we are all going to a Lebanese restaurant Tuesday for Emily’s birthday which should be interesting… I really have no idea what I will find there to eat.

I’ll be home on the 24th and probably stay there until I head to New Orleans for the WSOP circuit event.  Hope everyone is having as good of a week as I am…

Good Luck,

Matt
