Random thoughts, proving I’m nutz!

Text Box: 08-02-10
Since my trip to the WSOP, I’ve had little to no desire to play. Actually, I’ve had little desire to do anything since I got back. After seeing my daughter with my own eyes and getting a hug from that special someone, I sank into a depression for a while. I know it’s just the lack of adrenaline after a couple months of heart pumping excitement, but it’s never easy to settle back into a “normal” routine. However, thanks to a former (and possibly future) employer of mine, it looks like I’ll be able to start getting into that type of rhythm again soon. I think it’s just what I need. More to come on that as it develops.
Now, back to poker. I’m hoping to make it to the Indiana State Poker Championship for a couple events during the next month. Nothing set in stone, and I don’t even know which events, but at least I have the “itch” to get back on the felt. I’m also eagerly anticipating the opening of a new club in Marysville, Ohio. The owners/operators of this club are making sure all the details are taken care of, so it looks to be the only club in Ohio that will have my endorsement (for whatever that’s worth). The last club I had anything to do with had some serious issues with their idea of fairness and interpretation of the rules at times. I’m done talking about that club, and now I look to the future and the operations of the new club that will be opening soon.
For now, that’s going to be about all I have. I’m still trying to work on a few reviews as the Columbus Poker Examiner, and hope to get them posted soon. More to come soon.
One last note, if you’d like to submit a guest blog, feel free to email it here. If possible, I’ll get it posted for you here on the site. Please make it relevant (Or at least entertaining).

I really don’t have a lot to mention at this time, but when I was asked about running “Monkey’s” blog, I thought it was relative enough and wanted to make sure it saw the light of day. Names were not used, and I did not censor his work other than asking him to NOT name names. I left in his clues, so it’s easy enough to figure out where he’s talking about. In fact, I haven’t been to that club in months and I even figured out who he was talking about.
On other notes, I hope as many people as possible will subscribe to, and keep reading the series of articles that I’m starting on Examiner.com. I plan on posting reviews of private clubs, home games, and player thoughts about the poker community in the Columbus area. With the casino set to open in 2012, I think more and more players are getting excited about the options that are around. So for now, I’ll see you on the felt.
