Back from 7 day Carnival Cruise

Gonna keep it short cause I'm tired, but it was a pretty good time. We went to Cayman Islands (and drank all day at Senor Frogs), then went to Roatan, Hondurus and did some ziplining (thumbs up) and played with some monkeys and I got to pet a deer which was cool. Very nice island. Then we went to Belize where we did some cave tubing. You get these tubes and hike like an hour then tube through these pretty cool caves in really cold spring water. It was cold and we lost our guide but it still ended okay. Belize is a really poor country and these little boys like 10 years old were selling stuff on the side of the street. We bought some hand made vases just to be nice. After that we went to Cozumel Mexico. We've been there before so we just went and got wasted at Carlos and Charlies after some shopping for the wife. We checked out diamonds international, but the guy wouldn't budge on some baller items for me or the wife, so I walked away. My bro bought a nice watch though. They had 1/2NL 300 max on a "poker pro" electronic machine where I played a few days and won like 2500 because people suck at poker. Craps was up and down and I won like 1K at blackjack because I'm good at counting a 8 deck auto shuffler lol, nah, I ran pretty good.

The pit bosses ended up calling us by names because of our degeneracy and we basically drank for free in the casino (hey, this isn't Vegas!)

The day before we left, I won the 100rebuy 60K Guar on Full Tilt for 16.2K which really helps the recovery of this nasty downswing I am in precruise. I played the Bodog 100K and lost a flip on the bubble blind vs. blind 1010 vs. AQ, and I played the UB200K where I lost a flip 1010 vs. AK, then chopped AK vs AQ and ended up shoving Q10 into QQ and AA in pretty standard fashion finishing like 50 out of the money. I played a guy at 2/4NL HU while playing the UB200K and built up a 2800.00 stack on him before my luck changed and I gave some back. I think I ended up 1700.00on him after a good 2-3 hour match.

My friend jon won his seat to Aruba so I can't wait to drink with that clown. Good job man! Only 3 months away from that :o)

Well, I still feel the rocking of the boat which is pretty dumb, so I'm gonna do some laundry and rest up for the pro grind. Hopefully we run awesome!!!
