What's Your Edge
Cole South : Poker Blog So instead of Vegas for my birthday, my gf and I are leaving Virginia today to spend a week in San Diego with some friends (Martin aka alexeimartov, TJ aka TJ, David aka thatpfunk and his girlfriend). I'm excited, we've never been there before. We're planning on hitting wine country for a couple of days, going to a Padres game, flying in a hot air balloon, going to the zoo, and relaxing at the beach.
After San Diego we leave for Vegas for four days or so and I will play the $10k heads up and the $5k plo rebuy if I lose early.
Four days in Vegas should be plenty for me until the main event so we're flying from Vegas to Anguilla! I'm really excited about this, the island looks awesome and we're going to get our scuba certification.
I close on my new apartment on June 27th and then I'll get right back to Vegas for the main event. I'm definitely looking forward to that being over though because I'm not a huge fan of live poker and I'm psyched to get my new place set up and get into some semblance of a routine.
There hasn't really been any good action lately so I haven't been playing much poker, but Ariel won me a bit of money in the $5k mixed event. Unfortunately he was chip leader for most of day one and day two but it started to fall apart after a big bluff got picked off. He's not a sixth place type of player, he's either going to get a ton of chips or bust early so hopefully he can run hot and take one down this summer.

If you like burgers, make sure you go to Rocky's in Pacific Beach. You will thank me later. (Note: 21 & over)

+ev destinations, i am from/still live in san diego and have been to anguilla...... i must agree w/ above about rocky's but i'd be eating cali burritos..... and when in anguilla, make sure to make it to bankie banx's dune preserve..... sip on a duneshine and take in life for a minute, or if they have webz now (not a chance in hell), stay for the rest of your life!

Enjoy the San Diego Zoo, it's a pretty cool place
Make sure you see the polar bears, the elephants, and the meerkats
If you get really lucky with the polar bears, they'll swim right by the glass (the side of their swimming area is glass and you can go underground and stand next to it) and you'll literally be inches away from a gigantic polar bear. They're really really big, they could eat your face right off, it's crazy
The elephants do funny things
The meerkats are nuts
And obviously you should ride the skyfari over and over again, it's a lift suspended on a cable that flies over the whole zoo
The lines for skyfari can get pretty long during peak hours though. Just explain to them that you're CTS and I'm sure they'll scoot you right through

you guys have to try the frisbee golf course in balboa park. it is some sick shit. it's run by hippies and everyone smokes joints on the course. you can't go wrong in balboa park; it's probably the coolest outdoorsy spot in san diego. the stone brewery in san marcos is also worth visiting. just a few ideas. have fun man.

im pretty sure san diego was actually discovered over 1000 years ago by the germans. I think it means whale's vagina, dont quote me.
