Lots of fun stuff going on in my life

0

There's a lot going on in my life right now. I'm proud to say that Skjervoy and LearnedFromTvs baby www.nutblocker.com went live last week. This is a project I've been helping with over the last six months but Andreas and Tom deserve all the credit. I won't get into explaining the site as its schedule for its official release soon so stay tuned. There's going to be a lot of content from some of the smartest people in their fields. In the mean time you can explore some articles that have been posted and a bunch of "Poker Player Snapshots". The PPS format will be the same for all the people involved with NutBlocker so visitors can get to know everyone. Here's the link to mine.

With one interview down I have one to go. My friend Krissyb24, a SNE girlfriend of our very own Fishbones11, went on the QuadJacks show PokerEh! last week. The show is co hosted by my old WSOP roomie EVhero from www.EVhero.com. Anyways I came up in conversation during Krissy's interview and he asked me to do an interview March 8th. Its a Skype based show and goes for about an hour. I have no idea what the interview will be about but I'm looking forward to it and will post the link when it goes up.

Moving away from poker stuff I want update a little bit on my life. I just spent the long weekend in Toronto with Sophia's family. I was treated to a bunch of different Indian meals and had a very relaxing time. Her parents live right in the middle of the Asian suburbs and because of this we ended up at a hole in the wall place called Akina Sushi. This place is $15 all you can eat sushi within 90minutes. I knew I was in for a treat when the place was packed and I was the only white guy. The sushi had massive pieces of meat with little to no fillers. It was by far the best spicy tuna or salmon I've ever had. Our first order didn't seem to have as much sushi as we expected so we reloaded. BIG mistake as all of it came at once when we were already stuffed. My second order of spicy tuna and salmon came on a 20 piece plate. This was followed by 24 more pieces of various sushi. FML death by deliciousness! In the end the four of us powered through the sushi and went home to have food comas.

Last but not least I want to mention my birthday party April 9th in Montreal. My actual 27th birthday is the 5th but this is a party to top all parties Bal en Blanc. One of my staples of grinding music Armin Van Buuren will be headlining along with Ferry Corsten, 1/3 of SHM Steve Angello and Fedde LeGrand have been named so far with other yet to be named. If Deadmau5 make an appearance I might just die of happiness. If you're within a 10 hour drive I highly recommend you make it to this night. If your single I quintuply urge you to make it out as French girls + big name DJs + all white party + drinking + ????? things people do + all night = Profits. I'm going with Sophia so I'll be on people watching capacity only but its going to be one hell of a birthday.
