In the past two weeks or so I’ve played poker once. It was a 6 person SNG on Party and I bowed out 4th if I remember correctly. I’m not missing the game and my overall attitude has been a lot better because I haven’t been playing. Poker can drain the life out of you…or at least it can for me. I’m having a lot more fun golfing, working out (and losing weight), and doing other things instead of sitting in front of a computer for 2-3 hours a night. Of course I won’t make $15,000 like I did last year, but there are more important things to enjoy. For instance…I’ve lost 15 pounds in the last two and a half months and I’m feeling better physically than I have in a couple of years.

On a personal note, I have a pretty big announcement that I’m hoping I’ll be able to make in a few days. Stay tuned…
