World series of poker

I have been in Vegas for 15 days. I am one small cash for 15 tournaments. I am playing well and I still have 10-12 more events including the Main Event so I am feeling good.

Vegas can pray on peoples weaknesses in terms of nightlife and of course gambling. I am and have been committed to being disciplined in my diet, taking daily walks and saying no to too much nightlife.


In 15 days I have went out late one night so I feel good about that. I'm going to keep on playing my best and focusing and I believe good things will happen.

I wish everyone a great week on & off the felt :-)
