I went to a barbecue at an ex-workmate’s house today and during a good old-fashioned game of backyard cricket, the demons of my slothfulness arose to torment me. You see, it’s been a while since I’ve hit the gym, I’ve thrown a few kilos on due to the excessive consumption of sugary and fatty foods [...]

Our good friend James ‘Splitsuit’ Sweeney has just released his first book: ‘Dynamic Full Ring Poker’ through Daily Variance publishing, I plan to start reading it today. There’s been a bunch of good reviews, and the general feel is that it covers most everything you need to know to get solid at the micros and [...]

I think I’m a pretty logical guy. I can take emotion out of most things and break it down to the factors that count, and use those factors to form an opinion of, or base a decision upon the topic at hand. There are some things in the world that completely boggle my mind, but [...]

Finishing up at work, the last big job I was supposed to do got cancelled, so I got to have a lazy day. Today and tomorrow basically involve cleaning and preparation fro 2011. It was nice though, relaxing and saying goodbye to everyone who won’t be at the end of year get together tomorrow, lots [...]

So I’m making the jump. It was about half way through October Skelm and I decided we were going to move back to Queensland. We’re looking at the Gold coast and we’re looking at February.

So I got a few letters from Telstra saying the phone line that our net runs through was overdue to be paid. So I logged on and paid the bill, right? Well apparently I didn’t, the payment was accepted but must have failed somewhere during processing. I didn’t get any more letters, but apparently they [...]

I’ve had a bit of a dry spell lately as far as poker’s gone. Been doing a lot of writing and video-making, but not as much poker as I’d hoped. Luckily for me I’m pretty good at obtaining something when there’s a concrete goal set in front of me, and this house project is as [...]

So I have a few hobbies, as we all do, you know, refreshing things that we enjoy and can progress in that have benefits outside of money, fame, and the wimmins. I like playing video games (Guitar Hero/Rock Band drumming would be what comes to mind recently), I love drawing and animating, and also telling [...]

If I have any sort of image in the poker community, which I doubt I have, I’d be known for the guy who won’t shut the hell up about TableScan Turbo. But I don’t think I can really put enough emphasis on how awesome the program is. It utilises a bunch of innovative features and [...]
