just got back to boston. going to have all of the pics on the pc tonight and should have a blog post to follow.
happy halloween!
I'm a former college baseball pitcher who quit my job to become a professional poker player and try to make it in the ranks of professional baseball. Baseball didn't work out but poker is going strong. The best part about it is that I haven't had to sit in a cubicle since late 2007.

In Buenos Aires for first leg of honeymoon, pics to follow
city is very cool, and the exchange rate is ridiculous. had a huge 3 course lunch with wine and coffe for $10 yesterday. Dinner was massive last night with coffee, the full dessert tasting menu, and a bottle of wine and it was only $55 for me and the wife. crazy.
the only downside to things so far is that they just ended a sanitation workers strike so there is piled garbage on almost every street corner. meh. but the rest of the city is great. The parks are beautiful, and originally I had planned on posting a bunch of pics I took today, but apparently the blogger image uploader is down for maintenance.
oh well I'll get back to it tomorrow. Staying at The Glu Hotel in Palermo. Really awesome place with cool rooms, fantastic breakfast, and a jacuzzi on the roof. I'm sitting on the balcony right now watching yankees rangers while drinking wine and typing this post as the sunsets. life is pretty good.
hope the grind is good for everybody at and away from the tables. see you guys soon.

short update, more to follow
just wanted to let you guys know that I'm still alive and almost out of the DS. The poker gods have finally started smiling on me again and I've just about recovered from the 50BI downswing that I went through.
Also I've been really busy with wedding stuff since the big day is only 5 days away. It should be an awesome time and I'm sure it will be a blast to have all the friends and family in town. Went to city hall to get a marriage license last friday, and I've been piecing together the final parts of my tux over the last week.
but that is just the tip of the iceberg of work we've had to do, and katy has been putting in a lot of time and hours. lots more stuff I should be covering but I'm pretty busy with wedding stuff. I'm going to end the post now and try to get some more written up later.
hope everything is going well for everyone at the tables.
