At least I got my buy in back....

Monday and Tuesdays.....run into aces every tournament and get knocked out....lose races and get knocked out....always Mondays and Tuesdays. At least I knocked out one of the 10 million Full Tilt Red Pros to get my buy in back....

Then this happens....you have to get stacked to go far in this donk-fest....so instead of taking the easy cash I push with QQ (the worst hand ever) into A-Ko and lose the race....I end up bubbling but at least I'm not playing like somebody who wants to cash....
I am going to post some nice race-losing HH's now.....nah......

I got this email....I guess this is the first time i've busted a pro....thought I did that before but I guess not....

Pay it forward good blogger!!!

I imported a new list to the blog list. I wanted the feature that shows who updates their blog and when. If your blog is missing then let me know....Yes this means YOU! I also had a nice lady contact me through email and made an offer I couldn't refuse. I told her to make the same offer to everybody on my blog list because I wanted credit for being a nice guy and also giving something back to the blogger community...or what's left of it! So.....it DOES PAY to be on my blog list NO? Now check the blog list on the right side and let me know...GO NOW...DO IT....STOP WASTING TIME AND MONEY!!!!

Edit : Speaking of paying it forward. The good people at UpForPoker have decided to get PokerStars to open up the generosity door for THIS. Ummmmmm. I am wanting to be there....I just don't know if I can be there. I'm sure if I will be there it will be a last minute thing.....and I will need a team for the Last Longer Challenge. I suggested team MassHole for people from Massachusetts...but maybe that could be expanded to New England....since everybody hates our sports teams. Last time I was there was '07 and this guy was nice enough to show me around. Just where is BDidde/Biggestron anyway? I'll have to put out an A.P.B. on him.....

Never forget

9 years ago. Never again. I am so sick of hearing about this Koran burning stuff. It's basically taking over as the story of the month. I don't care what happens to the book of hate. I care about what this day means to America. Never forget...and never again.

Stupid way to die......

This is today's stupid way to die.....the former ELO musician is rumored to have said "Hey...." before getting crushed by....well.....Hay......

Second Fawkin' FiDDle!

Ouch...last hand as follows : (I knew the guy was tiring and I knew he was going to push anything if I called so.....the summer ends with a semi-bang)
