For the last week, I've definitely been feeling the after-effects of the WSOP - namely, a lethargy and inability to play anything poker-related, especially after Watts' win (mostly unhappy that I wasn't at the Bellagio for it. I really have the best timing this year.) On top of that, I also managed to completely destroy my foot in an ill-timed encounter with the wet floor/bathroom countertop at 4 AM - no stitches, but I've been more or less hobbling around the whole time and don't expect to walk 100% pain-free for a few more days. Oddly, I wasn't even drunk; surely my chances to cripple myself were higher had I stayed for the Bellagio?

At any rate, there's nothing about poker I really want to put here. The little I've played this week has been a bunch of bad beats, including a hilarious 3/6 PLO spot where I ran top set into a guy who decided to bet/call the bottom end of a gutshot with no redraws and got there. Okay, whatever, but does he really have to leave the game 5 minutes later before I've won his bankroll that night? Dammit.

What I do have on tap are a couple of side projects I won't talk about yet, a trip to Fresno to see EdmondDantes (kinda following in Bond's footsteps; expect hilarious drunken pics and random Celebrity Donkament bustouts), 60 Minutes/the Washington Post at , a couple of CR vids [these should be decent] and playing a lot more on Cake as opposed to everywhere else. Everyone else has 27 free TV's, videogame consoles and Ipods from poker per year; why shouldn't I?

Resolution: the next update is going to have some actual poker in it.
