Poker hiatus continues. I've yet to play a BBT4 event. I also have some Stars tickets gathering dust. A lot of it is a perceived time crunch, but like most of my issues it's really all in my head.
I've spent the evening doing some reading. I picked up a book by a sociologist on how society has gotten to where it is today (using the 50s as something of a baseline). It's interesting stuff and thought-provoking in ways that my usual "diet" of internet and historical non-fiction isn't. Of particular interest is the casual way that the term "ponzi scheme" is applied to various aspects of our economy. We may be witnessing the unraveling of those very things at internet speed.
This is a time of high anxiety for a lot of people, and I'm certainly no exception. I have serious doubts that I'll make it though unscathed.

although BBT4 can be the painful at times, it's still worth the mental agony if you ultimately get your seat into the TOC.
you can't win if you don't play.
