Guess who's back

8 weeks in the States sounds like a long time but it went by in lightning speed. Still, it feels great to get back to Berlin and sleep in my own comfortable bed again. Most likely I'll be spending all of August at home before my next poker trip to Barcelona in early September for the EPT. I haven't put much thought into my EPT plans for this year but I think I'll usually just decide spontaneously if I feel like traveling and donating another buy-in shortly before each tournament starts.

The nice thing about being away so long is that I always come back extremely motivated to put in a lot of online hours. The weather has been crappy these past few days (I even picked up a cold) so I'm hoping to really get in a ton of hands over the next month. The action on Boss seems kinda slow so I'll probably need to spread out to a couple new sites in order to get enough action.

In other news, I just finished watching the Sopranos and I'm pretty bummed that there are no more episodes for me to watch. When I get some time I'll write up some reviews of the TV series that I have watched so far (I have wayyyyy too much free time). Most of the great series that I have seen have been recommendations from friends so maybe I can pass on some good TV advice.

In closing, here's a pic from my recent skydiving adventure in Las Vegas. Notice the view of Lake Mead!

The Sopranos are just epic! Although I listed to the german audio line (shame on me!) I really enjoyed watching every single Episode.

The next TV Series i have in my mind in The Wire. Do you already have a verdict on that one? Many people say it is the best that money could buy...but i am not sure about it since the language includes a lot of slang and is hard to understand even as an native english speaker.

BTW: Your blog is really nice! Keep the entries coming!
Atm so many other poker blogs die off or get very boring...

The Wire is by far the best series ever created and every positive thing you've heard about it is undoubtedly true. Sopranos is awesome but does not come to the level of The Wire.

The language will potentially be an issue for a non native speaker (I always watch with English subtitles so I don't miss much) but I would recommend starting in English and seeing how far you can get.

Thanks for the kind words about my blog!
