Back in Las Vegas

We're back at our house in Las Vegas about 20 hours later than we expected. We actually got lost on our house boat on Lake Mead and weren't supplied with a radio or compass in the boat. We were relegated to sleeping in a cove overnight last night, since traveling in a houseboat at night is illegal. The nine of us had a really great time complete with lots of grilling out, alcohol and swimming. We'll probably relax the rest of the night. I think tomorrow is Sunday, so I'll try to take down a tournament or two online. I've decided that I am going to reside in Vegas and continue playing poker through the 2007 calendar year, atleast. I'm still enjoying it for the most part, and I just moved all of my stuff out here in April. I'm not ready to pack up and head back East yet. There is a fun International WPT schedule that is lined up for the rest of the year, so I'll likely continue traveling the circuit even though I no longer have the bankroll of 1 million dollars that is recommended for doing so. I'll also take some time playing live NLHE and possibly LHE cash games at Bellagio when I'm here in Vegas. There isn't anything coming up before WPT Legends in Los Angeles in late August. I anticipate going home to Birmingham to visit my family and also taking a vacation with Stephanie before departing for LA in mid-August to play cash games leading up to the main event. Blog updates will be infrequent. Thanks for reading.
