I have posted for a while simply because I've been so damn busy. So anyways, here's the lowdown.

School is done and about time.

Now I can work and play poker all summer.

On the poker front, I've had a great few weeks and have been tuning my game up really nicely, thanks much in part to poker tracker and some good books.

I'm playing in the no limit $25, $50 and $100 games now. Been making about 18 bb per hour.

Not too shabby, I believe my success has a great deal to do with game selection.

I'm thinking to myself the other day, a typical $2/$4 game has blinds of $1 and $2. The online nl $100 game has the same blinds.

I'm thinking about never playing limit again unless nothing else is available, or for fun only. At $1/$2 blinds and a full table you can wait for monster hands and try to cash nicely when you do get them.

Plus you have more leverage to avoid suckouts if you bet correctly.

I'm going to vegas at the end of july, new york in the middle of july so the whole summer looks to be busy and fun.

Vegas 3x a year? Sure why not!

By the way if you like great, dry humor, get "the office" from the bbc on dvd. Its excellent, funny and smart and a nice little dvd nugget hidden on store shelves.
