Well its been a long time since ive posted anything.. to be honest i kinda forgot to even check into LP for a few months, but im glad im back and caught up to date on rofls..
Ive been working in downtown Portland, OR doing graphics design for a software company for the last year, i moved from my small town up to portland around october.. i think sometime around then i went up to BC, Canada to visit with clay and doomer, we all had a really good time, it was fun to catch up with those guys and get some degen time in..
So anyways, life has been good, I obv havent been doing anything with online poker, ive played some 1/3NL at the casino in the beginning of the year, but once work picked up and i moved i havent really had the time.
Last week i messaged a friend from eugene who i used to grind with a bit, and he said he was still in the game ( we hadnt talked in almost a year i figured he would have gone back to real work ) anyways he told me he was grinding out limit and NL here in oregon playing live.. and after losing my ass to taxes i figured it could be fun to hit the tables again... so i took my christmas bonus to a casino that only has limit and realized im shit at limit... i won but i have no idea what im doing, but even with being so rusty, the players are terrible.. So my next plan is to take my christmas bonus and use it as a BR and start at 3/6 limit and get my grind on for the next month and see how i feel about it... Id really like to take some shots at 5/10 and 10/20 limit and see where it takes me.
After getting a standard ass job and just living, shit isnt really as interesting.. its all about just move up the ladder and find a GF and get married and bull shit, so i guess you could say i miss the poker lifestyle a bit, or at least not knowing what the hell was going on.. That was kinda fun in my life not knowing if i would be busto or robusto in a month. But the job is deff good, im getting things that ive always wanted, and my family is happy and proud of my successes, i guess i just dont really care too much, or see a huge difference, i think poker was about 3 times more stressful and at least 4 times as hard, so I think I was alot more proud of every dollar made from poker than I am from working. Also its kinda cool making your living from winning it from another person rather than just getting a check cuz someone was too lazy to learn how to do something on their own..
Anyways im rambling, but thats the whole point of blogs i guess.. to get your rambles out... but to summarize, im having a great time, im excited to see where my new career takes me, and im also excited to step back into the poker world and see if it can become a fun hobby for me to do in my spare time.
Oh one last thing, ive been launching sites like crazy in the last year, but i think this new one might be cool for some people on here.. its called http://rorzo.com and its just basically a place where i put up some movies and tv episodes for people to download for free.
Hope everyone is having a good time and some happy holidays.. Peace

Cool sites although I'm sure you're smart enough to leave the TV/movie one off you resume for potential employers lol. The working life isn't so bad and it doesn't have to be about marriage, kids, etc. I know that graphic design doesn't pay particularly that great but it seems like you're interested in web so if you get really badass at Javascript and something that can be used server side (Ruby is pretty hot and collaborative, PHP is always in demand but 95% of jobs are slightly boring, Scala is on the rise) you can make money that would make you laugh at anyone trying to grind out NL200 or even NL400 for a living. |

I guess i must not have written very well, i already have a job, ive been working at a software company for almost a year now, and im lucky enough to be making a very good living for my skill level and age.. almost double anything i ever made in poker. Portland right now is pretty booming for tech people and being able to develop for iphone and mobile web is in really high demand so im all good.
The site rorzo is just another free shot im taking.. it doesnt cost me anything to make a new site and its just a nice way to make some side money tax free. |

actually didnt know about the acronym for it, but i found out just now... and yea if that act is passed ( which im pretty sure it will be based on what happened today ) ill have to check into it more and most likely shut the site down. |
