3) Motivation / drive not really there and lost mojo.

4) Games are so much harder - NL1000 is just so hard these days.

TRIP OVER BACK TO GRIND!!

Ok last day of our awesome 2 month Asia / Oz trip today and the journey home starts at 1030PM tomorrow night - Direct from Perth to Dubai and then Dubai to Newcastle. I had ringfenced some money I had made from poker for the trip and the good news is my budgeting was pretty much spot on, the bad news is that we were not under budget hence I will have limited resources when I get home. I have to say I have really enjoyed a break from poker and have played less than 100 hands in November. Cheers to Ben / Brenos for the forget poker advice !!

I come back to a new role within the company i work for which will be my priority, however I need to start to think what I am going to attack at poker as will be first time for many a year when I do not have a decnt roll for it. My current thinking is just to hit a few multis on the night I play and try and pick up a score before Xmas.

Anyway looking foward to the cold and rain and ice .....

OZ RACES AND CASINOS

Ok for fishes like Amatay.

1) Casino complex at Sydney is immense (Star City). Even bigger than some Vegas offerings with about 50+ poker cash tables on the go starting from AUD 1 2 (0.5 1 GBP) upwards.

2) Flemington racecourse - Melbourne Cup - buy better tickets than I did (General enclosure) else as one of my mates phrased it - its like Newcastle plate day with sun (too busy cant see).

3) Crown casino Melbourne - home of Oz millions = looked good but not a patch on Sydney offering - also won 100$ in Sydney buy lost 20 Melbourne !! - nearly got ejected for taking photo of poker room!!! Loads of electric cash tables (not popular) to reduce dealer time.

Off to fillies day tomorrow at Melbourne - laters.
