Hey everyone! Sorry again for the long break in-between entires but I guess that my blogging is just doomed to be a monthly sort of affair.

Since last time, thankfully not a lot has changed - still living the good life in San Diego.

Poker-wise, I'm still on a pretty sweet heater in the local 300/600 mix game. It's getting to the point where other regulars groan when I show up to the card room so I'll take that as a sign of flattery and keep doing what I'm doing :).. Which is mainly just running good!

You know things are going well when the biggest concerns that I have most weekdays (game runs M-F) is whether I want to build my chip stack pyramid outwards or upwards.

Though I like the orderly, neat look of the upwards pyramid:



.... there's something to be said for the vast power of the 6X6 blob:



And for those times when I find myself on the short-stack, here's a pro phallus intimidation maneuver:



So all on the poker front is going well.

Life, otherwise, has likewise been excellent. I've been golfing/beaching/exercising plenty in-between the poker sessions and recently had a few friends visit from NY and went to a bachelor party in Cabo, Mejico.

From the girls' visit (unknowingly right in the middle of the west coast blackout):



And as for the bachelor party, obviously what happens in Cabo stays in Cabo but it can be pretty easily summed up by three pictures:







Ah, memories. (Or lack thereof).

Hmm, I remember a time in my life where the number of words on my blog actually outnumbered the amount of pictures. Oh well, pictures retain a fondness that words sometimes can't quite describe. Maybe next time I'll actually include a few of my thoughts, but hopefully you guys enjoyed the pictures as well. 'Til next time.

Cheers,

Mike
