My first Blog:
Think I might start bloggin some in 2010 to kinda evaulate everything as weeks go on, and maybe even help me keep my focus. I just finish ending my backing arrangement with Ryan "gutshtallin" Welch, up on the stake, and in great terms with him since the only reason I was dropped b/c of personal reasons with him. What Ryan has done for me and my game is more than I could ever imagine someone could give me and for that I thank him for the opportunity and support he has givin me for the almost 2 years we have had a deal. It feels good to end the stake with both parties coming out with money and not for the other reason. I am now awaiting to hear back from another backer on possible new deal, should be gettin called first week of january (will announce who if deal works out).

2010 Goals:
1) Crack P5s top 100 (Illinois top 5)
2) Get 100k in Bank
3) Win Major
4) Travel to play poker somewhere I have never been
5) Play 10+ events in WSOP 2010
6) Buy House (25% downpayment)
7) Enjoy Poker More
8) Gain More Respect from Poker Peers
9) Show more consistent results
10) Be a Winner on all sites by end of the year

In meantime, since I'm awaiting to hear about new deal and really cant afford my normal fulltime schedule which is basically everything minus 100r and 1ks (which I play if I could sate in) Sun-Wed. I'm going to grind some smaller stuff and some 180s until I can find new deals. Looking forward to 2010, my game is the best it has ever been and I'm really excited as to what this year will bring.
