October update - MMAsherdog Blog

The month started off pretty slowly, probably a delayed WSOP summer effect, but it eventually picked up.
The month wasn't that swingy, which I really don't mind as a highstakes poker player who's seen variance take a year to outrun.

Now, the games are juicy again, with some special VIPs showing up daily.
Regardless, I'll be streaming twice a week, doing my coachings, so I'll be plenty busy.
And to reward myself for the hard work, I booked a 7-day trip to Hawaii next month.

I'm off to a flying start in November, so let's continue the good run!
