Hey guys,

So I have had a few whiney posts lately to vent about running bad.  Well, I have been running good lately *knock on wood*, so I feel like I should at least mention that too in the blog so all the poker talk isn't complaining.  As usual, I am very excited to play poker since i have been running good.  I will do my best to play a lot in the next couple weeks as I will end up having to take some time off.

Unfortunately, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 is an outstanding game.  I say unfortunately because it makes it hard for me to do much besides play that game when I am not pokering/socializing right now.  I have a decent amount of other things to do for life right now, so hopefully I can spend a few hours away from a computer/TV screen over the next few days.  I am really addicted to that damn game.  When a game is good, I feel like its an insane value.  I have no idea how many millions were spent on the development of the game, and I am sure they are making an obscene amount of money on it, but I think paying $60 for the amount of hours of enjoyment I get out of this is a great deal.

I have been coaching more lately than I have in the past, and I am really enjoying it.  A lot of it is due to the fact that my current students are very smart guys and are very knowledgeable about poker.  I think I am going to start maintaining a steady amount of coaching in my schedule next year.  Its a great way to mix up the daily poker grind, and I am sure it makes me a better player as well.
