Welcome To Good Karma Kid!!!
I used to blog just about poker, but recently decided to write about everything of interest to me. I love to travel, enjoy good food & restaurants, drink some wine, and take pictures of my adventures. I got my nickname about 10 years ago when I used to play a lot of poker in Washington State, and guys used to tell me that “I was Lucky.” I always replied “I’m Not Lucky, I Have Good Karma” and a poker friend starting calling me “The Good Karma Kid”. Hope you enjoy the blog, if you like a particular article make sure to leave a comment ![]()

My wife and I are expecting a baby boy in October, and my wife kept dropping hints about going on a “Baby Moon”. It would be our last chance to spend time alone
and that whole song and dance. I was getting a little burned out on poker, and could always use a vacaction. I’ve been playing poker professionaly for almost 6 years now and the truth is I can’t see myself doing much else. It can be pretty rewarding, both financially, and personally. You have a huge amount of independence and freedom that jobs and owning your own business don’t afford you. BUT, as great as poker is, its tough to stay motivated some time.
Anyhow, my mom has a timeshare which is good at several different location around the U.S. and Mexico.
The condo at Lake Tahoe has been booked solid for the summer for months, but we got lucky and their was a cancellation so we were able to reserve a room for three days starting on the 8th of August. It should be a lot of fun, I’ve heard lots of great things about Lake Tahoe, but never been there.
Be back on Thursday,
