Cool stuff, congrats on your lasik. I am considering it myself one day. You did scare me a bit with the whole face clamp thing lol.

I would have medallion sewn onto the jacket, then don a Pokerstars had and wear them out everywhere, raving at anyone who'd listen to me about how "I'm Adam Fucking Junglen, Sunday Million champion and EPT All Stars. You wish you were me huh?"

Be careful not to strain your eyes in the beginning. The truth is glasses will be a thing of the past with the way technology is going. As long as your doctor is not a DUCK! Nice jacket!!

Let us know how the Lasik goes. I have wanted to get it for a while. Then I found out I had diabetes a few years ago, so it's probably not an option anymore.

Nice little toys!

Well, yesterday I had my Lasik procedure and it ended up being a bit more of a hassle than I thought it'd be, but it ended up working out fine.

At the moment I'm recovering, so my vision isn't 100% - but I can see pretty well considering I just had the procedure done. I can do most things (after all, I am typing this blog), but things are (expectedly) a little blurry. I should be 100% recovered within a few days. It's very weird not using glasses after having to use them for so many years. There was a moment where I put on my glasses, just by habit, and they made my vision much worse, then I took them off and my vision was much better. Reminded me of the scene in Spiderman when Parker firsts wakes up after getting bitten by the spider and did the same thing.

Anyways, the procedure itself was somewhat of a struggle. I have some eye-twitches and other subconscious movements that I tend to make with my eyes, which ended up messing up the procedure in the post op room. It actually took 3 tries, but I ended up just fell asleep the third time in the post op room, allowing the flaps of my cornea to heal and for me to go home and rest.

The actual Lasik wasn't a big deal at all. It was frustrating to have to repeatedly go into the operating room to seal the cornea, but the actual Lasik wasn't too painful. I'd say it was similar to getting a cavity done. Once you have the shot to numb your mouth a cavity is a breeze.....well, once they setup the clamp on your face so you can't close your eyes, it's easy.

The last few days I've gotten some goodies in the mail from PokerStars. First, I got the Sunday Million jacket:





Then, I got a cool medallion type of thing they give to those who final table EPT's. This is the first year they started giving these out. This comes from my 6th place finish at EPT Barcelona of course.





That's all I got for now.

Later,

Adam Junglen
