How you doing? Oh yea? That's great(or not great, depending on your response). Me? I'm amazing!
I finally took some time off for myself. This past year has been a majorrr grind. I've played a seemingly endless schedule, and have probably had more trips this year than I have total trips combined for all other years of my career. It was fun, exciting, profitable, and exhausting!
Now, after a year+ on the sicko grind, I've decided to treat myself to a trip. Right now, I'm en route to some great destinations by way of cruise ship. I stop at San Jaun, St. Thomas, Sint Maarten, and the Dominican Republic. I have some amazing excursions planned....
...scuba'ing with sea turtles and in the beautiful reefs in St. Thomas...
..fitting in some tax-free(a poker player's favorite) shopping in St. Thomas...
... a dolphin encounter...
...and a 5hour long ATV/culture tour of the Dominican Republic...
I'm so grateful that I'm able to enjoy such things. I'm so grateful for where I am at in my life, and in my career. All the little pieces are slowly coming together, and my hard work is starting to show the payoff.
Along with all the travel and game play this year, some other great things have happened. More recently, a new opportunity came a'knockin' at my door... an opportunity to give back to the poker community that has so generously given to me as I've learned and grown within the game... an opportunity to train poker players. Not only have I taken on some private instruction with a few players, but now, I have a chance to dip my foot into the live training arena.
Thanks to Mr. Lee Childs, I will be a guest presenter/trainer in his upcoming course at The Borgata. This will be an amazing opportunity, not only for myself but also for those in attendance, to learn from myself, Lee Childs, and one of his staple trainers, Jason Young. I will be a guest presenter for Lee's One-Day Tournament Training Session, which will be held at Borgata Casino, Hotel and Spa in Atlantic City, NJ on January 14, 2013(one day before the start of the BEST series of the year outside of WSOP, the WPT Borgata Winter Open)
