Out at the top

So I want to update my blog but I can’t think of anything I want to write about….so this is going to be riveting. Built it up haven’t I…can’t wait to read more can you….

Okay so my new theory is that when someone is completely magnificently brilliant at something we need to wait until their powers ever so slightly then have them killed. I mean nicely and quietly and in a manner of their choosing but basically they’re not allowed to continue living and tarnish the beautiful image of them we have in our heads. Maybe that’s harsh maybe there’s a get out – they can do a Bobby Fischer the maverick genius chess player that became a hermit near the height of his powers.

I’ve just hear Michael Jackson’s “new” song and it’s utter rubbish. Not that that’s a surprise I mean he only produced rubbish for about 15 odd years. Around 1989 he should have been quietly ushered off the scene and we wouldn’t have to had endure any of the um…..tricky stuff…..

Same applies to pudge ball Maradonna, Woody Allen and on and on – the great ones need to be frozen in time.

It’s because of this that I’ve decided to retire from poker at the peak of my powers……or not – though maybe if Hellmuth or Johnny Chan had in 1990 it would have been good

I’ve just finished a really busy period of work and I’m mercifully quieter over the next two months. So I’m gonna work on some stuff I love like writing my book and so on but also setting some goals for poker play in terms of number of hands to play and so on. I’ll blog them and fill you in on my progress.

In the meantime I’m off to Dublin this weekend for the IPO – should be fun hope to see some of you there.
