Thailand sorted

Well I have booked the flights for me and my mate to go. I found an amazing flight for just £90 one way from London to Kuala Lumpur so the money I have saved booking that I might go to Vegas for a week during the WSOP if anyone else goes.

So I leave in September and go to Kuala Lumpur for a few nights then fly to Bangkok and taste the night life there for a few nights, off to Pattaya for a week or so then in October I go to Ko Samui for 4 months to live like a King hopefully.

Really am so excited as I have never been before so its something new for me. Usually when I am waiting for Florida I am not bothered as I have been there so many times now. If I like the place I am 100% buying a villa out there.

I have been on a diet now for about 3 days so far so good, to help me through it I have got some appetite suppressants to stop me craving food. Started some light jogs at night to get me back into it then eventually I will be back in the gym and will get in shape in time for my holiday.

I still haven't touched a drop of alcohol now for 3 weeks and have not even wanted to drink any. I feel a million times better for it and so does my poker as I am having one of my best months so far.

Will post a final update at the end of the month.

Thailand villa and update

Poker has gone much much better this month, in fact I have made more this month so far in just 9 days than I done in the whole of last month - a much welcome up swing.

I have not drank now for 3 weeks, when I went to the doctors the first time he asked me, "when was the last time you went 3 days without a drink?". I really couldn't answer him. It is amazing how much I have based my life around it. Go out for a meal - have a drink, go out for a drink - obviously have a drink, get bored at home - have a drink, go bowling - have a drink everything is just based around drink.

I feel so much better for it and now next week I will start jogging again to get back in shape as poker has took its toll on me over the past few years. My cholesterol came back as 7 which is high, I have to go back in a month to get another check.

As for Thailand, booked for 4 months so far, every day that goes by the more I think about booking longer. I will definitely buy a place out there if I really enjoy it. Here are a few pics of the 2 villas I have booked so far.














This will mean that I am in Thailand for Xmas and New Year which will be much better. Sitting outside in the sun or on the beach on Xmas day with no stress over the usual shit... can't wait!!!

End of month review

Well what a terrible month, probably my worst so far, well not my worst but one of them. 2 weeks I went just going up and down up and down not sure if it was down to tilt or not playing proper or concentrating.

Ended the month $4800 up thanks to my last 3 days though where I have got back on track and have started to get some nice profitable days.

Betting started off the month great, ended up shit taking a break from it and focusing on poker only.

Thailand is booked, 2 months so far maybe another 2 months if poker is better next month. I go in September and can't wait the villa I am staying in looks amazing.

Ill post something else when I am more happy and motivated.
