So, the second part of my 5/10 series will go up on Thursday I believe. Although I think the first part was unique in all the great discussion generated from a few plays I chose to make (you should really read the thread HERE if you haven't yet), part two was more of the standard/"boring" me making plays that make you guys go ooh and ahh . So, definitely check out part two when it comes out.


In other news, Danielle and I arrived in sunny Mexico yesterday for a vacation! She had some time off from school, and we have both been working a lot, so we decided to take a relaxing vacation. We were able to get a good rate at the Excellence Club resort at Playa Mujeres, about 25 miles north of the Cancun airport. This is going to be the first trip I've taken in a while where I won't have to worry about putting in work hours, so it'll be really fun to just get away for the 5 nights that we are staying.

So far, the resort perfect and seems to focus on the things that Danielle and I really enjoy (qualtiy facilities, cleanliness, great food, activities, variety, relaxation, pampering ). I'll get some pictures up when I get back. Last night, we ate dinner at an Italian restaurant (they have five restaurants exclusively open for dinner so we are going to try them each once -- eight restaurants total), and they gave us the most amazing dinner coffee in the history of the world. They brought a pushable stove top out, and the chef set some brandy on fire in the cups. After heating up some other ingredients in our glasses, he began to pour various alcohol ingredients back and forth between two fountain pouring cups about two feet apart. Oh, the liquid was literally on fire. So, picture fire flowing back and forth between two cups as the chef lifts one and then the other. I don't have pictures because we didn't bring a camera to dinner, but that will definitely be changing for the rest of the trip! The end package seemed to be coffee, brandy, kahlua, vanilla ice cream, and maybe something else I didn't notice.


I haven't played golf in years, but Greg Norman designed a course here so I'll probably saddle up for half a round. Danielle can be my caddy!


I'll still be online during the week, but obviously not with the frequency of which I am now. I've been spending a lot of time in the middle stakes and small stakes NL forums of Leggo, so post some hands and I'll give them some answers! In fact, I've posted a thread requesting SSNL players to list some of the concepts they struggle with. I promise those will participate will not be disappointed!

Well, back to the beach for me.
