UPDATE ON MY LAST SIX MONTHS

I've been doing a lot of traveling these past few months and I haven't had time to update my blog or make many videos. So, I'm sorry to all the fans for the delay, but I'm back online with new news. I broke even this summer for WSOP. I bricked all the tournaments but two of my horses, Jonny McGowan and Steve Levy had some good final table scores. I also played in the European Cash game again this season. For the majority of the European cash game, I played really well but made two thin plays against Andy Black and failed. I ended up down 17K Euros at 50/100 so it wasn't too bad. For more information on the European Cash game, check out this link:

After my disappointing experience at the European Cash game, I flew home for a week then back to London again for WSOPE. I finished 10th running QQ into Jason Mercier's KJcc while short. Flop came down AcK10c so I couldn't even get a sweat lol. A lot of ppl give Jason shit for running good, but I'm glad I busted to him because I think he was by far the best player left. While I was there, me and my horse Evan and a bunch of liquidpoker guys MezmerizePLZ, Fazi, Twistedecho and the Hansen brothers stopped by Jalouse, which is one of London's hottest nightclubs. We ordered two 2 foot tall bottles of Belvedere and had a sick time...I ended up diving off the elevated dance floor and smashing my head, but that didn't stop me. Needless to say, it was a good night.

I then went to NYC and had the most expensive meal I've ever had at Masa for a $1.5k dinner for two. While I am aware that this might be a bit pricey for miniature slabs of raw fish, it was insanely delicious and worth every dollar. Chef Masa is a culinary genius and a genuinely nice guy; he explained everything we were eating and where the fish came from. I highly recommend Masa to anyone who loves sushi.

Right now, since I've had a recent small downswing and my horses are not doing so hot this year, I've decided to multitable 5/10 for the month. My goal is to play 100k hands and make $100k. So far I've played about 20k hands and made $75k, so I'm a pretty much on track in terms of number of hands. I'm excited to see how much I can profit at 5/10 and hopefully it will be a boost for my confidence.

I know it has been a while since my last blog, but I will definitely be updating a ton more from now on.
