Happy Bird Day to all of you in the US – and all of you in other countries too if you share our traditional turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, pumpkin pie and whip cream until your about to burst idea of a cook all day and eat for three good time. I will sleep through the gorging and be at work when the grazing begins. Believe me, it’s better that way. I’ve had invites but I like to sleep too much…just in case I have to deal my full shift. My day of too much food and family (never too much family)will come on the weekend. God Bless!

Bellagio’s Gardens
Anyone thatvisits Bellagio, and goes anywhere other than the casino floor, sport’s book, or poker room, knows the gardens are a sight to behold. A few months ago there were trains running through all different terrains and climates, using the Banyan tree in the theme. Now fall has arrived and with it the scent of cinnamon spice is in the air. That’s one of the most sense delighting facts about stepping into the gardens, the fresh change in the air and a climate change, usually a little more moist, removing onefrom the dry desert atmosphere, and now it smells like cinnamon spice too.

The Blog Father Cometh…
To tell you that I can be totally infatuated with a person would be a slight understatement. I can do it with females or males and really never have a sexual twinge or thought about their physical being. I fall into the mesmerized thingey with people from time to time and I really love it when I find people to feel that way about. After all…I’m in the poker industry where I watch people at their very worst, and I know before they open their mouth what they are going to say, and I suppose I could be called ‘jaded’…so WTF! Call me jaded! Do whatever makes you happy! But I’m completely, deliriously, ‘helium balloon in the sky floating to the sun’ happy that we have a new blogger at PokerWorks.

Playing Around
Sounds slightly promiscuous, doesn’t it? That would be playing poker around town type of playing around. Since I’m the resident slacker of Bellagio’s poker dealing staff, I’ve managed to spend more and more time on the playing side of the green felt. Marie manages to spend quite a bit of that time with me. Gary and Marie play poker pretty much on a daily basis. Gary likes the $20-40 H games at The Mirage and plays $30-60 H at Bellagio on occasion. Marie plays the smaller limits, like me, and we manage to meet up at the tables, usually two to three times a week. We try to play in different rooms, check out the crowds, watch the action, win a few $$, and just enjoy the fine game of poker. Continue reading Playing Around
“HI! I’m Sincere!” II
*post continued* Perhaps I’ve not mentioned lately how much I enjoy playing poker when I have no stress to do anything, like a clock in my face, or some other issue that needs tending NOW! Back to the game that had me in stitches. I found out that the 9s’s name is Ryan. Stephanie pulled out her handy dandy instaconnect to the internet phone and looked it up on Google (or The Google as President Bush referred to it). Ryan translates to king. They had more than a few words on that subject. Continue reading “HI! I’m Sincere!” II
“HI! I’m Sincere!”
I’m sincere when I tell you I laughed my ass off through most of my play in a $4-8H game at Bellagio last night. Sometimes you just have to be there to get the full effect, and for the most part, that’s exactly the way this is but I’ll try to paint the picture so you get half as big a kick out of it as I did. Continue reading “HI! I’m Sincere!”

Is it my cruel streak or is it ok to laugh?
Of course I’m a lunatic about titles on Spam and the way they try to hook all of us in to opening, and reading their drivel and slop, that they should be shot for (through the legs so they can’t walk) and be forced to sit at thecomputer from hell for the rest of their lives, answering SPAM. Of course regular readers know my views on Spam as I’ve posted more than once about the non-stop slop and most of it’s sexual in nature…like there are women waiting to meet me…pshaw! Get out of here! Continue reading Is it my cruel streak or is it ok to laugh?
Project City Center VI
I may give up the Roman numeral system of Project City Center updates. The project is so far ongoing that I may not be able to figure out what the next one is at some point. Ok…now for all of you absolutely brilliant people, you can send them to me in an email or in a comment or send me theURL where I can bookmark it for future reference. Speaking of help, I’m wondering where my possible future husband went to. Marriage proposals, no questions asked, and then *BOOM* nothing. Perhaps someone else caught his eye… Continue reading Project City Center VI
The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act
Over the last week or so I’ve become more and more distressed with the ban on internet gambling being signed into law. I have hated the idea of it for quite a long time, way back before a lot of internet poker players even had any idea that such a shitty little wrinkle was on the horizon, I protested the event and asked people not to allow it to take place then. It’s not just poker that’s at stake, it’s ‘choice’ *freedom* that’s at stake. Continue reading The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act
