Damned if I’m not already three weeks into the LOA and I’m nowhere. All those plans, right down the tubes so far,as if I’dfallen into a ‘blush tank’, gotten pig drunk and couldn’t figure out daylight from dark and assholes from elbows.

PokerStars 150 seats guaranteed tourney
Kee-rist! I won a $16 satellite, re-buys available, on PokerStars and invested $32 big bucks to take 20th place, that’s all I needed for a $370 buy-in to this baby. It starts in about an hour. Right now there are only 5,681 registered players with a prize pool of $1,990,800. Yippee! I’ll post on this later. I’m ‘PokerWorks’ there if anyone wants to sweat me. And if you’re going to sweat me, cross your fingers, toes, legs, arms, hair (all body hair – that includes pubic), and anything else you can think of, burn a candle, visualize, chant a mantra, that I win a seat…PLEASE!
Cruisin’ the WSOP on Friday
After a strange week of no rest and confused frustration, tamped down with irritation, double doses of ‘nothing is going as it should’, sprinkle daylight glare and heat over the top of everything, bake in the heart of molten lava for two months, then simmer while pouring in mega doses of ‘Kee-rist!’, served in tidal waves; I finally made it back to the Rio and Poker Land USA. Continue reading Cruisin’ the WSOP on Friday
Sleep!
Damn! I finally have the picture thingey figured out – I think. And I managed to sleep a whole seven hours straight. Life is so much better right this moment. The next step is to sip through my first cup of coffee. It’s on the menu right now, just waiting for the Mr Coffee to finish doing its thing. Continue reading Sleep!
Crap!
Right this minute…oh…where was I? Kee-rist! I’m so tired my brain has given up trying to resolve my issues and allow me to sleep. Or is it circumstances that create the problems and not ‘my issues’? I give up. I can’t figure out if there is a question for the answer. Continue reading Crap!
WPBT – July 8, 06 – Caesar’s Palace II
*Post Continued*
I’m cranking on the next phase of the Blogger shindig – and I’m tired – and I’m learning another phase of a Word Press upgrade. It’s a little bit mind shredding at times but the programmers I work with are the greatest. They’ve helped me on every step that I almost faltered on…sweet! Serge – Sarunas – Niekas – and the latest one that came to my aid – Bilikas. Thanks you guys – you’re the ‘stone nuts’! Continue reading WPBT – July 8, 06 – Caesar’s Palace II

LOA – my ass
Leave of Absence from what? I have barely had a breath to sit down and skulk through a glass of wine or another blog or even think about doing anything besides catching up. Thank God the Time Clock hasn’t been on my menu too. Whe-w-w-w! Continue reading LOA – my ass
Spinning off the charts
Everything in poker is raging in Las Vegas. The WSOP is in full swing and brings thousands of people into all the poker rooms around the city. Then add my favorite event – the WPBT is coming – Saturday, the 8th, a hoard of us will fill Caesar’s Palace to listen to Howard Lederer, Phil Gordon, and Michael Craig, before we try to beat each other’s brains out and outrun the power of The Hammer. Has anyone charted The Hammer’s rating in these tournament events? Like where does it place in hand rankings? Group A? Continue reading Spinning off the charts
