Thought You MIght Enjoy

For those that have watched JimmyLegs "Brain Fail" CR videos, here is a link to the special bonus video from this week's episode. I am shocked that this series hasn't gotten more love in the general poker community, it's really quite different than anything you'll see in any poker training video anywhere. It's not going to teach you how to make millions, but I'd be surprised if anyone that watched it didn't think they learned something (about poker or otherwise) and also didn't thoroughly enjoy the series.

I don't care who you are, micro grinder or nosebleed player, watch the brain fail series and you've got my personal guarantee that you will not be disappointed.

Here is the bonus video from this week's episode (this part is not educational, FYI):

I'll cut this post short for now as this post really isn't about me. Quick update In case you were wondering, I'm alive and well and in Las Vegas. Yesterday I played my first event ($1500 NLHE) and got knocked out a few minutes before the dinner break. I'm planning on getting on my grind out here so hopefully I can do some damage in some events. I never thought I would say this but I would really like to win a bracelet. Obviously the money would be great, but I would really like to be able to say that once in my life I won a World Series of Poker Event. If I could do that then I would have played the biggest games on the internet (well, not 500/1k), played in a televised cash game and televised final table, and won a bracelet. As far as meaningless poker accomplishments go (meaning non-monetary accomplishments as I've always treated poker like a job), those are some of the big ones out there. It'd be gratifying to someday look back on all this and think that I've really been able to accomplish a lot as a player and otherwise. Maybe I will be fortunate enough to win a bracelet but if not I'll at least be able to say I gave it my best shot.

Good luck, I'll talk to you guys soon. Oh, if you're reading this today (June 3), feel free to come out to the CR Happy Hour tonight at Stripburger at 5pm. You gotta be a member and we will be checking, but you can come drink on the house and hang out with some CR Pros. Andrew and I will be there, pretty sure Hastings will be there, and I'm sure random other people who I don't know about. See ya.
