Finally made a day 2. Still pretty far away from the money with 122 remaining and only 36 pay. My chipstack is 34,000 going into 800/1600. Played too many hands today to remember. Pretty much every table had some recognizable pro. Played a bit with Hoss at the end of last night’s play and it […]

Busted both of these pretty quickly. Event #13 was the weekly Saturday $1k with two day 1s, like 4500 total entrants and only 3000 in starting chips. I don’t think I’ll play any more of these because much like the plo events the starting stacks are just so shallow you really have to win your […]

It’s been a busy couple of days. I just got back to Seattle from the Indy 500 on Sunday, and then flew out to Vegas on Tuesday to my first wsop event of the year today. May ended up with me losing $27k which is not so bad. I really just like to think of […]
Edit: mean’t to send this out before my trip, but ran out of time. Just deal. For me anyways. I plan on playing pretty much every event I can under $3k that’s not 2-7 or PLO8 as those games I have very little experience at. I’m getting pretty pumped and while I know I’ve been […]

I wrote this up right after my trip way back in mid December but lost the file and just refound it today and thought I’d post it finally. Better late than never right? I had a blast during my New Jersey/Philadelphia trip this past week. The trip started off with a trip to Atlantic City […]

My pops e-mailed my this one and I got a good laugh out of it. Thought I’d pass it along… The IRS decides to audit Grandpa, and summons him to the IRS office.. The IRS auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney. The auditor said, ‘Well, sir, you have an extravagant […]
Got my own 7 game table over at ftp a couple weeks back and been meaning to blog about it. Come play with me! I just got done playing a session there in case you are wondering why I’m not sitting in the screenshot. No video today, but I’ll leave you with a quick article […]
