are appearing, at least in relation to my own fiscal downturn.  It’s no secret that the year has been pretty torrid for me with some large negative numbers from high stakes cash games, a chiplead in London blown early on 2nd day and a general doubt creeping in as to whether I was over the hill.

Newcastle GUKPT last week was encouraging (good positions nearing bubbles) while being cashless (wrack up another -£2k ).  Also the laughter when I suggested that I may not be attending this years WSOP was heartwarming.

I got back on monday and played the $109 horse on stars.  $2k win.  Played again on tuesday.  5th for $400.  Wednesday and Thursday.  Win and win for $1850 a pop. 

Fri and Saturday were busts but not a bad run.  I also busted 2 $216 HORSE tournies and a $700 wsop sat to eat into the weeks recovery, but I guess I can live with that as the $270 bodog sat was a success.  Ship the WSOP seat.
