Hello world!

I have not updated this blog in years and really did a horrible job updating it back when I had it running anyway.  This time around, starting in 2015, I plan to have much more consistent and in-detail updates.  As I've stated above, I have lofty goals in 2015 and am more determined than ever to make them happen.

In this blog, I'll write things about my life, poker, travels, and exhilarating/awesome experiences I may have.  Currently, I am in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico and just arrived here about 1 week ago.  This is my first time traveling to PDC since I was a little kid, it's definitely a really interesting place with a lot to do in a cultural beach town with a lot of character.  There is a dance music festival called BPM festival that I attended with my girlfriend, who also plays online poker and travels/lives with me... and many other poker-playing friends that are currently living in PDC or visiting it for this particular festival.  It's been such an amazing time and experience, these are the kind of experiences I am going to remember for the rest of my life and know am going to have some amazing stories for in the future :)  These festivals and shows bring people together unlike anything other things i've ever seen in the world, and I feel lucky to be able to travel and be a part of them.

More importantly though, 2015 is not dedicated to partying or anything.  I have been putting massive study, training, and HH hours into my poker game... and I am feeling as good about my game as ever before.  I have been coming close in many trnys but have quite frequently been coming short of the top 3... My ranking on pocketfives.com in online MTTs currently is #65, but I WILL get to #1 in 2015.

Let's get ready to rumble! VAMMMOO
