A very brief update

I wish I could post more regularly but I'm not in the best of moods.

Argentina is cold now, typically just a couple above freezing at night, maybe 15 degrees celsius in the afternoons. I really should switch hemispheres but my private life is hampering my travel plans.

I've also been getting a severe spanking at the poker tables this week. Poker can bore me at the best of times, but it's mind-numbing when you can't win a pot.

It's a holiday weekend here (May 25th = Revolucion de Mayo). The history of this relatively young country makes quite interesting reading (naturally it's littered with examples of Politicians screwing it's people left, right and centre), maybe I should summarize it one day.

Chau for now.

Hi, great blog. Sounds like you live a great life. Do you travel and play poker to support yourself??

hang in there.

Poker as a living is tough - but it will have those highs once again.

Perhaps a short break in style, playing a tourney or two; play just one slightly higher stakes table, or some such change might help.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Amatay: yep, you basically nailed it. I am also trying to support myself (and now my GF) via a website or two.

BFU: you're spot on. For me the temmptation is to play for even more hours to recover the losses, but I'm taking a couple of days off, and then will play some NL cash (micro stakes) and the odd sitngo, just for fun.

Let's just say I'm looking forward to the correction.
