Weekend Warrior

Here we go again! Another post you lucky people. The distinct lack of postings on this here poker blog is because of the distinct lack of poker being played. Summer time and a busy old schedule have made me something of a weekend warrior on the felt. That will all change as the nights draw in and the recreational players return for the winter. The few sessions I’ve put in over recent weeks have all been “ok” but I’m a little rusty.

So what’s been keeping me from the tables? Well kids stuff has taken up some time. Youngest is mad for his football so that accounts for a good chunk of time (training, matches and the inevitable “Daddy lets go to the park” kick-abouts). The second youngest starts her clubs and stuff this week too. I’ve also been kicking on with the study towards my qualification. Aced the last exam. Go me. The snooker and pool seasons are about to start again next week and I’ve kept my arm in by playing a couple of county games for Buckinghamshire. Just in their ‘b’ team, but that’s been kind of fun (I was an 'a' team regular until I stopped playing 5 years ago). I said I’d play the remaining fixtures and with a couple of wins the team will qualify for the nationals. I won't have played enough to go to that though unless we apply for dispensation. Got to get there first though...

That, folks, is about that. Watch this space for reports of my poker volume going back up and that first million rolling in.
