Prepping

I did two things today to prepare for the San Diego tourney this Sunday. First, I went and got some new specs at LensCrafters. It kind of felt like that scene in Color of Money when Paul Newman is at the eye doctor. Second, I picked up a few poker books : Super System II,
Zen and the Art of Poker, and The Tao of Pooh (which someone emailed me about earlier today). Going to try to get them all read before the tourney this weekend.

I've been in touch with some most of the backers and got the payment. Still have a few to solidify before Sunday. It's more work than I thought to juggle more than ten backers for a single event. I really feel like I'm in a good place to play this right now, though. I've been focusing 100% on this thing and I'm really hoping for good results. In a lot of ways it's the most important tournament I've ever played.

I got a lot of supportive emails about my last post. Thank you.

My mom sent this audio clip to me that I thought I'd share. It's worth a listen because it's funny as hell.
