For those of you who might be having trouble knowing what a BLOG is or navigating a blog (Richard), here is the first installment of the 2008 World Series of Poker Senior's Event blogging chain. So, you can practice keeping track of the Sippl Legends of Poker (R) All Old Guy Gambling Team. We leave for the Rio, and its convention-center-turned-into-the-world's-largest-card-room, tomorrow.
Much like when a world class athlete approaches, say the Super Bowl or perhaps the Olympics, we are in training. I just finished my Raisin Bran and granola with skim milk for breakfast, and I am about to leave for the gym. Sportsman must focus, and champions must get in the zone. (Whether I should drink martinis tonight at the birthday party I am going to is a good question though.)
I have been reading books (OK, really just ONE book) on poker have been watching DVDs of past tournaments while I ride the exercycle during rehab. I have carefully analyzed many strategy hold 'em articles in magazines. I have this conclusion. You can't go into a world class athletic competition like this with only one strategy. You need two strategies, a short term strategy, and a long term strategy.
Short term strategy: Don't screw up.
Long term strategy: Don't ever screw up.
I am ready now.
