Time Constraints

As you could probably tell from my last post, time has become a somewhat exhaustable commodity. Basically, I haven't had much spare time to play or write about poker. The PLO experiment is going fair at this point. I do have mixed feelings about it do to some reading that I've been doing on the game. It would appear that many authors have very diffrent approaches to the best way to dominate at the tables. Which is one thing that I haven't been doing. Bankroll is back down to approx. $1,100. I can say that I haven't got much play time in of late and I may have played a dozen or so sngs in the last three weeks. It does lead to a somewhat meloncholy state of mind. Yet, then again, the small break is giving me time to do a few other things that have been somewhat neglected.

I've been able to take a more acedemic approach towards philosophy. Of course, that in it's own right, can be considered both + and - ev. I had forgotten how long it's been since the material I was reading had some sort of intellectual challenge. Harrington On Holdem isn't exactly a literary masterpiece. A gold mine for the novice poker player- yes, but literature and the pursuit of truth tend to go alittle deeper. I can say that the texts on acedemic logic have been a great source of learning, especially along the subject of poker. Funny how Jung's theory on syncronicity can apply to so many diffrent levels.

Well, just wanted to leave a note to anyone who is following the project. It is alive and well, although in a small state of dormancy for now. Hopefully I'll have more time this month to play or I may have to wait until after the holidays. Guess only time can tell that. Good luck at the tables everyone!! Until next time...

Thanks for the recent comment. Been a while for me as well. It always seems this time of year gets a little crazy. I notcied your post about good reads and a short one that did me some good was "The seven Spiritual Laws of Success". It's a short read like maybe 120 pages or so but definitly helped me out in thinking about the Big Grand Picture. Well I hope all is going well with you and you break out of this recent downswing.
