Cambridge/Charlestown/Davis/Fanuiel Hall


I had dinner with Andy at Cambridge Common a couple nights ago. I originally planned on talking to him about San Francisco because I plan to visit and possibly live there starting in June. We ended up talking about poker, my recent success (pros and cons) and about his job. After seeing John for a minute, we met with June at Grendel's. Solid time.

Last night, June and I checked out The Burren for a folk night they run on Sundays. They had a band from Minneapolis playing on stage in the back. They were really fun. There was a band that set up in a round booth in the front. I really enjoyed them a lot and plan to go next Sunday in hopes to hear them again. It was a really unique atmosphere. I love that place.

While watching Mystic River with June (we've been on a Sean Penn bender), I noticed that some scenes were shot on one of the mail routes I would frequently deliver to in Charlestown. Pretty sure June thought I was crazy until I drove over to Russell St and proved myself.

Tonight I had dinner at the Union Oyster House. My 3rd favorite restaurant (and the oldest in the country). I had the fisherman platter. Sounds lame, but the fried seafood at this establishment goes unparalleled. June ordered the lobster ravioli and that was equally as delicious.

Oh and I'm riding quite a heater. Aside from the graph, I'm +$900 on Cake. Playing well and running well.

FTP Red Name Pros

As you can see from the chatbox, Maciek Gracz refuses to play me at small stakes. Maciek Gracz is a "Full Tilt Pro." I find satisfaction in this.

Ideas


I haven't play as much live poker as I would like. All of the clubs around here, spread 1/2-2/5NL and never have any LHE. As a result of this, I've decided to fuse an upcoming vacation with a solid couple sessions. There are a lot of spewy 30/60 games in LA, but I really have no desire to visit there. I'm still trying to piece together what I want to do. Regardless, I intend to play the 20/40 at Foxwoods on a more regular basis. I haven't played much at all this month but this is my graph thus far for the year. 2009 gogogogogo.
