2nd September -

I have been accepted into Copenhagen University to study English and am in the process of moving to Denmark and finding a place to stay there.

I have not played much poker this last month, but hope to get settled in Denmark as soon as possible so I can start making some money again. Yet this will most likely take most of September to accomplish.

July 24th - A short update.

Friends are home on vacation are off work, so I have been busy hanging out and having fun. I have had some time do play some poker now and then and it has been going really well. I am up about $7.000 so far this month.

An annual festival is coming up here in Faroe Islands and it usually features several days of partying, so I doubt I'll amass much more from poker these last days of July.

August might see me back at a more regular pace. Setting myself some good goals again and getting some discipline back.

July 9th - Lazy, but still kicking

I am still alive. I have just been lazy doing updates and playing poker these summer days. Some of my friends are on holiday from work, so we have upped the fun and games this month.

There is no vacation pay when it comes to poker. Being your own boss has its merits for sure, but it is hard to keep a good work schedule when I don't have to work and there is always a party to go to.

Despite my laziness I have been doing good this month. I've been playing on Party Poker and Full Tilt and the games have been juicy. I assume some of the regulars are out grinding in Las Vegas, with the World Series going, so my theory is that the pro vs. casual player at the tables is a bit off for the time being.

I am up about $3.500 so far this month. I would like to make that $5.000 so I guess that'll be my goal for now. But if the cards keep coming and the games stay juicy, the sky is the limit.

July 2nd - Doing good.

June is over and I made a killing online since I got back form Vegas. I ended up $5.750, so I've made the money the trip cost me back, with some leftovers.

I have been playing good most of these last days and running good as well. I hope to keep doing well in the months to come, so I can back into being a $5/$10 regular and pushing my way back into $10/$20.

I don't know what goal to set myself for July yet, but I'll think of something before too long.

June 28th - Back home.

I got back home to Faroe Islands a couple of days ago. I know I had big plans for giving a running update in Las Vegas, but I decided to drop then when I got acquainted with the wretched internet connections offered by hotels.

My trip set me back about $5.000 and I hoped to win some of that back playing live games in Vegas. Unfortunately I ended up just a few hundred dollars.
The trip was a blast and I enjoyed every day. I also learned a great deal about live poker, not the least of which that I don't play it nearly as well as I do the online variant.

I have still got a few days left of June and I plan to make up the rest of the $5.000 online. Hopefully using whatever I picked up playing 100 hours of live cash games and a newfound energy to build on my game online.

Thanks for all the comments.
