Spring Has Sprung!

It's been a while since I wrote about poker, so I guess it's high time I do!! After I tell you about my latest trip!

Had a blast in AZ. Spending time with my dad and brothers is always fun. Throw in some partying, and some riding, and it's even better! The week in AZ went too fast, I could have dealt with the warm weather a little longer! I did get in a round of golf while there! I smoked my little brother, witch drove him nuts, since he has been golfing for longer, and pretty much used to beat me pretty handily! I took him for $9 playing a $1 a hole skins, and beat him by 10 strokes!! I did manage 3 birdies, and 7 pars, not bad considering it was my first round of the year, and I was using rental clubs!!!

Camping in the desert sounded like a lot of fun, and it was, but it gets frickin cold at night!!! I wasn't prepared, and froze my ass the first night!! The 4 wheelin was awesome! We spent a good part of the time riding up and down a river, seeing who could get whom the wettest! We did some exploring too, and talked with some gold prospectors as well!!

On the poker front, I've more less switched to Stars, even though they are rigged! I'm really struggling to get a decent roll going there! Really I'm getting my ass kicked, and dropped a bunch playing 18-45 man SNG's. It's driving me nuts! I flip bad! So I switched back to the 9 mans, and at one point I had cashed 20 of 32, only to follow that up with 5 bad sessions where I cashed 19 of 80! I'm still getting used to multi tabling them, so I know the cashes will come, if I just give it time! 16 tables at a time is not as hard as I thought, but it will take a little while getting used to playing that many! I'll post some numbers, when I get to 2k played!

I also got my younger bro playing on FTP! I'm trying to teach him how to beat sng's, which is funny since I'm having a hard time with them myself!! Not that it matters, because he doesn't seem to want to listen to me anyway! But in my defense, he couldn't even figure out how to sign up for them, so he definitely has some learning to do! I got the RTR and FTP referrals though, so beyond that I really don't care too much!
GL at the tables!
