Slow-Rolled ... plus Bloggers Gone Wild

There isn't too much going on right now in terms of poker, nothing worth writing about that is. But it seems I've developed some loyal readers, which I'm extremely grateful for.

This is actually a nice little break, and I think I needed it to rest up for a strong end of 2008. One of the more important things I've learned is that when things aren't running so well don't force it, so I'm not.

I'm going to try and improve my online game a bit, but not much as I'm not a huge fan. I would like to win a seat to the PCA (PokerStars Caribbean Adventure) though because I hear that trip is awesome!

I'm flying to Tennessee on Thursday to watch my boy Rock cage-fight UFC style which should be pretty cool ... He better win!

After that it's on for the PokerListings Run-Good Challenge. The first round is Sunday the 23rd and from what I've heard it's like Bloggers Gone Wild, which should be a good time.

My birthday is Tuesday the 25th and I'll be happy to see my family for Thanksgiving.

I'm trying to figure out my living situation as in where to live?? I have some money set aside for a down payment on a condo or townhouse whatever; just trying to figure out if it is going to be close to home in N.Y. or out in Vegas.

It's a pretty big decision I think and I honestly have no idea what I want to do. After traveling the world, taking care of my family and running cold for a few months, it looks like I will have to consider some of the backing options that have been thrown my way.

I want to get a place and have a little breathing room for at least a year or so or I would never forgive myself ha!

RGC: Like Bloggers Gone Wild, but with more man boobs.

So anyways, after the fight, and the birthday shenanigans which I'm sure will be plentiful, I'm pretty sure I will be fired up to play some live poker.

It looks like I'm heading for Bellagio first week in December to play some prelims and satellites. After that I will catch the tail end of the WSOP stop at Harrah's in Atlantic City.

Hopefully I'll get in another 10 tournaments before the year is over and I expect to end the year with a bang!

As always feel free to send any questions or comments to JYoungPoker@hotmail.com.

I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving.
