Feeling inspired...

It's been a very long time since I wrote anything. I am doing well.

The reason why I feel inspired to write is because of people's stupidity and their stupid rantings at an online poker table. I am playing at www.worldpokerexchange.com (WPEX), a rake free site! I play 5/10 Limit because there aren't a lot of 10/20 Limit games at WPEX. It's a bit lower than my normal 10/20 but so far I'm doing stellar so I don't need to go to 10/20.

Here is the convo between two guys... (readers beware: a lot of swearing and name calling).

By far, Astroglide is the better player. I always find this amusing.

Stats right? I've been tracking again especially for this new site http://www.worldpokerexchange.com/. What is this site I'm raving about? It's rake free! You play your normal game, the rake is collected, then the rake is returned to you every Monday. On average, when I play at 5/10 the rake collected is $26/hr. I get all of this back. If I could put in 30 hours and break even, I still get to collect $780. So for the last two weeks, I've put in 40 hours, +2202 in profits, and $1049 in rakeback! Amazing numbers! I think I could do 30 hours a week.

I've missed qualifying for two major WPT tourneys: The North American Championship at Niagara Falls, and the World Poker Finals at Foxwood. There are two more major ones... one is in the Bahamas and the other is in Australia.

My travels? Been to the East Coast of Canada Oct 7-15. Spent 9 days driving from TO to Quebec City to NB to PEI to NS and back through the US side to TO. East Coast Canada is beautiful! I delayed my Costa Rica trip because I didn't feel like a vacation yet. Kinda missed the cold and snowy winter in Toronto. It's my first winter in Toronto since leaving for Harrisburg on December 1st, 2000. Long eh? Anyway, I am loving it here. Upcoming trips? Going to Peru to visit the Inca Trails Dec 25-Jan 1. Costa Rica Feb 1-15.
