Someone posted a question about the site that tracks your tourney results
and that prompted me to take a look back to this summer before I took my
little vacation....

In less than 2 months from the end of June to the middle of August I won
$14,500 in just online tournies AND I won a seat in the WSOP.....AND I
HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT. NOTHING.

Someone post the sound bite of Rick James from the Chapelle show saying
"Cocaine is a helluva drug."

thanks

Does it say how much you paid in entry fees? One number isn't relevant
without the other.

Cash won in live play and side games online more than paid for the entree
fees. I just can't manage money.

A saying I once heard was something like this . If you cant live on 1000
a month you wont be able to live on a million a month. The meaning is if
you cant manage your money it doesnt matter how much you have. I have a
similar problem. Come to think of it a lot of gamblers do too. Can we
say Character Flaw?

There is no way in the world I could live off of 1000 a month, fortunately I
don't have to.

I could, have, and sometimes have to, though fortunately, very
infrequently.

Here in the mountains of virginia the cost of living is very cheap. Hell
there is one place that has $100 a month rent. A lot of people across
the country live on less than 1000 a month. I dont have to either, but I
could do it.

Yeah, I really ought to move. I have a very good deal for where I am, but
I am in pricey country in a tourist beach town. I just somehow got
settled here. I am sure I could increase my standard of living elsewhere.

If he hasn't already paid on it.  He doesn't owe taxes on the WSOP seat, that
was a satellite to another tournament, and just brings the cost basis for his
tournament down to the cost of his satellite.  (Warning, not a tax expert or
accountant, that is what I remember Russ Fox writing once, and he IS an expert)
