I have been super busy all day. Woke up early, worked out and then had a dentist appointment. I need to have a root canal re-done to this tooth I already had one done to. I scheduled it Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Hopefully it doesn't interfere with my Thanksgiving dinner! After that my nephew and sister came by because she had to show me something. My nephew who is almost a year old is now walking and taking his first steps! It was pretty amazing to see him walk around here and there. He's growing up really fast. Just last week I could play with him and he would hold objects and not be too rough with them but now he's throwing them around. It's really crazy how quickly things change for babies.

Yesterday I played a bunch of tables and had a couple shots. I got 3rd in the 55r and took a couple nasty beats at the final table. I lost JJ vs A4o three handed which would have had be heads up about even in chips. I am playing well for the most part (when I can focus on individual tournaments.) I am excited to play more and more poker. I played one tournament today, which was a $33 rebuy PCA qualifier to win a seat to the PCA. I didn't win. After that I got back to editing video footage and handling a bunch of other stuff. It's now about 5am and I am just about to head to sleep. Approaching 20 hours of being awake.

I have had some people contact me about the last blog and I really appreciate everything everyone has said. We will see if anything works out. Those that have suggested something or sent me an email I really am grateful. Hopefully with all this work I am putting in recently I can help Brian get a job somewhere. Tomorrow I have to upload more game footage for him to the youtube page we created. Then I am going to attack the professional basketball world. They better watch out. I have done it before but this time I'm coming harder and won't stop until I have set out what I plan to do. Here's the new highlight reel from Brian's camp in Germany a couple months ago. He was named one of the Top 5 players at the camp. He's #20 in case you can't tell.



Youtube link in case the video above doesn't work.

I'll keep everyone updated on the progress and let everyone know how it goes. Thanks again. I will probably play some poker tomorrow and definitely a bunch this weekend. Maybe I will write another blog tomorrow too. I tried to pump this one out since I just finished editing his video.

some of those highlights were more impressive.

You should try and zoom a bit in some places even if it lowers the quaility a little.

Also start it with a picture of him/ position and height. I am guessing he is some sort of combo gaurd.

Thanks Raider, good suggestions. I had been editing that footage for so long on my OLD computer and it took forever. I finally switched it all over to my laptop and we were able to edit it quickly.

I am going to upload like 3-4 more videos today that should help his stock even more. Not just highlights but real footage so people can see how he plays in game. Highlights can make anyone look good.

friendly suggestion, when i played ball in college we would have showcase days with 100's of scouts, the most common advice was have him introduce himself in a way that would show his physical attributes (size\stature) in contrast so there easily measurable by the naked eye. then show what makes him special, ie his strongest tools. and finally some live game footage that showes hustle and heart all while keeping the entire video brief. good luck!
