Post Black Friday.

 Since the day been labelled 'Black Friday' by those of us involved in the poker community, I have lacked the motivation to really play poker to be honest. First there was the panic, I of course like many other europeans thought, yep I need to get my money off Full Tilt as fast as possible. I ended my previous backing deal off the back of my most profitable month online when that shit hit the fan. Then there was the realisation that it seemed like everything was going to be alright for the foreseeable future on this side of the Atlantic. However, before I was playing RODs (Rush on Demands) and the games were just loading so slow. Even 2+2 seemed dead. So I took a short sabbatical away from the game, bar the odd live donkement here and there.

Now, I've decided to play again. So I'm creating this blog to keep myself motivated. I have just entered into a new backing deal. And for the first time I'll be playing on stars, because although like I mentioned above Full Tilt seemed ok, clearly was never the case, as they have lost there license to operate. The client is at a complete stand still. The only positive I can give is, I live in Dublin where the HQ for Pocket Kings is (Run by Full Tilt). I have talked to 4 or 5 people who work there, and there has been no knee jerk reactions, there sitting around doing nothing all day, but importantly they still have there jobs for now. So Full Tilt clearly believes it will get the client running again in my opinion.

Myself and a friend (plays 180s fulltime) are planning on relocating around Novemember to Spain to play full-time and live the life in the sun. I wanted thailand, but he won't commit to it, so whateva. He wants me to learn how to beat the 180s, so starting at the bottom. The 2's here I come. I also am going to use to blog to hopefully post updates about progress in the gym, because that is something I seriously need motivation for. The last thing I will be doing is trying to create the ultimate grinding playlist. So hit me with any suggestions.

I got ambitions.
