Barcelona
The usual hiccups (wifi issues, electricity conversion problems, mayhem at the casino) have occurred, but all the major problems appear to be out of the way now and it's time to get down to business, then pleasure. The tournament starts tomorrow.
I'm not comfortable yet. It always takes me a long time to adjust to a new situation. Who knows, I might never get comfortable for the entire seven weeks I spend in Europe and then remember why I vowed to cut down on travel.
Spain appears to be paradise for degens. Everything gets going a few hours later than it does in the U.S. People eat dinner at midnight. The tournament doesn't start until 5 in the afternoon tomorrow. These conditions and the jet lag have us on a real late schedule (we woke up at 5 PM today) which might continue for the two weeks we're here.
Wish me luck tomorrow.

Good luck...I genuinely wish I was out there right now.
I heard if you take pictures and share them with your poorer friends you run better

Rolled up aces over kings. Check-raising stupid tourists and taking huge pots off of them. Playing all-night high-limit Hold'em at the Taj, "where the sand turns to gold." Stacks and towers of checks I can't even see over.
See if you can play your way onto Barcelona FC's basketball team. I heard they even took Paul Shirley. Also, do they still call it Texas Hold 'em?
