Well it’s been a few days now of being home and reflecting on the experience. I think one of the hardest things is my philosophy in life has always been I see a correlation between what you put in – and what you get out – of most things. Politics has been true, parenting has proven true and poker .. well it still seems to elude me.

I’m okay with my play and the experience and I believe any time I learn something all is not lost. I learned what it is I WON’T do again which does put the focus on what I will do. So I have to look at that.

Last night I got an email out of the blue which brought me back to center to why I play. It’s about the message and it’s about the cause and in many ways that greatly overshadows the poker. That great article Rebekah Mercer authored (which will be on the site soon under Articles) must have hit home with more than a few people. Read below. Thanks to the author of this, unknown to me, as it reminds me my true purpose in this gig. If I hadn’t been at the World Series there wouldn’t have been an article. And without the article there wouldn’t be light on a subject which will be my calling from here on .. so thanks WSOP. All is cool.

Hello Nancy, I’m a big fan of poker, read your article, sorry for your loss, not just for cancer, our medical system focus on disease and over treated many medical conditions such as Hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol. Medical school never trained us to focus on health, but used us as a medium to deliver legal drugs to the general public, as result we build more nursing home so people can die without dignity. This is the reason why I can never practice medicine. please keep up the good work on educating others regarding to our fake medical care. Best Health and inner peace. Dr. Mia Ha
