London/Xmas/New year/My Bday :D

Yoyoyo. What is going on in the world of poker? I feel a little distant at the moment.
I am back on the road again after spending a messy Christmas over in my home City of London. I am so excited to be getting back out but also going to miss my London people. You guys are my world and I will always be representing London wherever I go. I am currently in Vancouver after my quick stop of in Oregon. I am just getting settled in this little studio apartment in the Downtown area. I am so fortunate to have moved a few blocks away from a friend I made in Costa Rica, Duncan and his girlfriend Ellen. I have had big internet problems and they have helped me out so much, I am very grateful guys. They also introduced me to a couple of 9man grinders which is well cool to see still going on after all this time. GL Aaron and David.

Xmas
I won't go into full detail about the Christmas because to be honest I don't remember a whole lot of it given how intoxicated I was over the time. I have had some massive swings both in my favor and against, they were really enjoyable grind sessions but felt like I had developed a few leaks in some of the games due to mainly reg warring and having some fun with the game, to be fair it was the end of a sick year and I am allowed to have some fun :).

New years
I have had a lot of time to think about my life, career, choices to be made in the beginning of the new year and seen as it is the new year it is time for those deadly new years resolution which we all make but no one sticks too.

1) Poker to be my main focus in 2012. I spent a lot of time wasted partying and bullshitting in 2011, I enjoyed every minute of it but I think the tone I want to set for 2012 is 'hard work.'
2) Get SuperNova elite by 2013.
3) Get more involved in social media. I have been speaking quite a bit to Hokiegreg, someone I have looked up to in the heads up world since the day I learned how to raise my button. He has opened my eyes a little in what I need to be doing. Check out his blog here: www.hokiegreg.com
4) Have my video blog up and running by the end of Jan, this will be a You Tube page and will go week to week with me and what I am up to.
5) Play more live events and this years world series. I will be selling action when the schedule comes out, if you are interested in buying some action I will have a post on here explaining all my mark ups etc.
6) Network more and more. I am always interested in networking with the games best and last year I certainly did that, this year I want to do it a bit more organized and have more of a reason than just 'grind' when meeting up with people. Although I do love those grind houses and will be down for a couple trips of just grinding :D.
7) Put a lot of work into personal relationships in my life. I find it hard to make time for everyone because of how busy it can get living the poker players lifestyle but now I am here with some time to myself it really allows me to see what's important before money and success and that's family and your relationships.
8) Make a lot of money :) :) :)
Ok so I lumped in my Original new year goals in with a couple of new ones I made sense. 
Sunday session lads?

Anyone fancy a game of poker?

My Bday:
It's not like me to celebrate my birthday but this year is the first year I felt I had something worth celebrating.
I had the best year of my life being 22 so wanted to have a big night where the people I got pure love for could get together and get really messy together. It was also a bit of a leaving party as I am not going to be back in the UK for a while now and wanted to say good bye in style :). I would just like to give a big thanks to everyone who turned up, the night was amazing. Sorry about the stupid door people who are really just pissed of with the world.

Last note, GL to the newest member of the HUSnG crew from London Donk King1 out in Australia with his chick. I wish you the best on your heads up career, if you do what I think your capable of doing I think you will go far in the hyper turbo world. I would like to give you this one piece of advice. It's not a sprint, it's a marathon but no ones pace is ever the same but everyone ends up in the same place as long as you finish the race. Peace.
