I'm working my sorry ass off!!

No time to do anything except work and try to get 6 hours of sleep!!


And this will be my sorry schedule for the rest of the year and the first several months of 2008!!


Not only that, but I'm moving into a 550 square foot apartment this month!!


At least the apartment is clean and fairly new, with a dishwasher and garbage disposal


But I'm putting myself through all this bullshit because.......I'm rounding third base, heading for home!! I'm in my Final Stretch Run for Vegas!!




I'm tired




But I'm almost Home

What am I missing, here?

Working like a dog until about the time YOUR SUPER BOWL XLI CHAMPION INDIANAPOLIS COLTS win their 2nd consequtive Super Bowl, moving into a 550 sft apartment...

what do either of these things have to do with going to Vegas???

(I get the working to get the $$ for Vegas, but until FEB '08???)

I`ve been working my sorry ass for 27 years at the same job........10 to go till that big retirement day

Not only that, but I'm moving into a 550 square foot apartment this month!!

My master bathroom is bigger than that

AKA the "jerk-a-torium"

Kurt, I'm working through this year because I'm building up my second source of income, which is the forex market. When I hit Vegas, I will no longer be working a regular job......my income will be the market and the craps tables. My earnings from the craps tables are tax free!!

So I have to make damn sure I have PLENTY of working capital when I quit my job here in Tucson and move to Sin City. I quess I could leave right now with the money I have.....but I don't have the balls or the stupidity to leave a decent paying job just because I'm impatient. I've waited this long, I can wait a little longer and do it RIGHT, which has been my plan all along.

But of course....if I were to LOSE my freaking job, then I'd say FUCK IT and GO FOR IT RIGHT NOW!!!


Believe me.....it ain't easy forcing myself to stay here. But like I said.....I'm rounding third base and heading for home


Cravn.....dude, my fucking walk-in closet in this house is bigger than that shoe box apartment I'll be moving into around the first of the month That apartment is shaped like a......shoe box. Like a coffin

Barry, if you already have that much time into a career, then that's how you'll finish it......safe and steady, eh?

But 'ol mighty_colts is not that!! I'm feast or famine.....I'll either go ALL THE FUCKING WAY, or I'll CRASH AND BURN





But if I do screw the pooch.....I won't have any regrets. I'll always know that I followed my dreams and took my shot

LOL go for it Mighty...

What did Jim Kelly say? Don't be scared to chase a dream, you might just catch one...


Actually I'm getting ready to try and make my way to Vegas myself for World Series week..(poker not baseball... LOL)

My uncle Tommy was a poker dealer in Vegas for 40 fucking years and he taught us all to play (the right way) when we were very young...and continued my "mis-education" all my life.. He actually offered to stake me up when I was 22 to see if I could make a living at it, but I wasn;t interested back then... Now of course I would kill for the chance to play cards for a living...LOL

My bankroll is growing on full-tilt right now though... Shoot I was pulling in anywher from 100-300 a day on PP before the big fat IRS dick got stuck to me and I used the money to pay my taxes...I was up around 8g then...Then of course the damn governement started their shit with the stupid poker ban..(I LOVED pp, but they don't welcome US players anymore) BUT I got back on at Full-tilt this week and I'm starting on getting my roll re-established and making a run at Vegas or AC... Ceasers has a decent Poker room down south on the boat..I pulled another 5g out of their rooms last year the 2 times I went (on the $1,$2 tables at that..LOL) But I know the biggest whales are at the 2 poker capitals of the world...

I think my plan is to start with a $150 deposit and play the 1,2 tables there until I hit a G then play the 5,10 tables and see what happens from there...

I was observing the 200,400 tables on Full-Tilt 2day...Now thats the kind of action I would love to build up too... average hand was about 7g...WOW.

You know what they say about a big master bedroom right? Overcompensating for something that is much smaller elsewhere! haha

I wish I had the time to go to the WSOP. I want to at least play one of the day tourneys, maybe too. No way I can stay a full week though, the business would go south in a hurry. Maybe next year...damn it!
