mia

It's been a while. I haven't been playing much. I cut back to once a month at the casino and hardly ever online.

I've been working on other projects and I decided to focus on those projects. For a while I was feeling that I was losing interest in poker and that troubled me. As poker has been such an important part of my own psychology and self identity for several years now.

I did play this week. My in laws were in town and my dad and brother in law mentioned they were going to the casino. They asked if I wanted to go. This was on a Wednesday but I had Thursday and Friday off work.

So we went. I wasn't sure how long the others would last at slots so I was expecting a short session. I ended up playing a couple hours which was nice. It was a good session. I felt good playing. Alert and rested. Not distracted with texting on and off again girlfriend. I'm single now and free of that distraction from good play.

The table was pretty good and I enjoyed myself. I feel I played well and ended up booking a $17 profit. It was good to have a winning session for the first time in three months.

So those projects I mentioned are starting to get finished up so I'm looking forward to getting back into live and online play.
