Some random thoughts and events since my last post for my legions of followers:
My Q1 run of play was certainly positive. Unfortunately, all the MASSIVE profits quickly went toward bills and expenses, extinguishing my temporary roll. I think I know this song.

I’ve played only one session in the last couple of months. Was in Vegas for a trade show a few weeks ago, and scrounged enough money together for a 2/5 no limit session at Bellagio. For what its worth: ‘scrounged’ is an excellent word choice here. I remain undefeated in this particular game over the years, which, no matter how incredibly awesome a player I am, is a statistical improbability. It helped that when down to my last few hundred I flopped quad 8s, and got matched up against Aces full AND a guy intent on calling everybody no matter what. Another statistical improbability.

Speaking of statistical improbabilities: why is it that while I played high stakes all of the statistical improbabilities I encountered seemed to benefit my opponents?

My wife suggests that we find a way to get me playing more. Assuming I do, will I be able to cope with this kind of pressure?
