So I finally get to blog from the comfort of my home! After a month or two of relentless traveling It is so nice just to chill around the house, play with my dogs, and just lead a nice a simple day to day life. I have been playing a lot of poker this week , but with very little success. I have been playing the cash games and cannot find a winning session to save my life. Coolers all go the other way, beats have been hitting on me, and I am just not in a good mindset about it so I probably am not playing my best. I wish that was the worst news for my bankroll though… My stable of horses have been getting brutalized even worse than myself. I have 11 players that I currently stake and the are down about 150K in the past 2 weeks. Every deep run in a tournament just seems to end badly for them. I am quite sure at this point that I have cursed staking money 
Hopefully things will turn around in the coming weeks because the stress of watching my players struggle like this is really getting to me.
Outside of poker things are going great. I went out to Lake Mead for labor day yesterday and had a blast. We had a group of about 20 people and rented 3 boats. The weather was outstanding and the company was great. Obviously I am a moron though and I lost a pair of expensive sunglasses and also jumped into the lake with my Iphone in my pocket. You would think I would learn my lesson after going through about 8 phones from jumping in water, but you would be wrong. My girlfriend told me I am very smart in some ways , but can often be a complete “scatterbrain” as she put it. Im afraid I cannot argue her point
I am off to biloxi for the gulf coast poker championship on friday. I am really excited for the trip since I know a lot of people down there and also think it is going to be a great shot at winning a tournament. The borgata is runing a big tournament at the same time so I think the east coast grinders will just go to that. That leaves myself, my roommate, a few good southern grinders and a bunch of southern gamblers. I like my chances
