I just can’t get here.  A lot of it is the time factor, the minutes speed by as I try to catch them – laughing at me as they skip off over my shoulder never to be captured or seen again.  I feel like I’m in the middle of some huge life dilemma but I can’t put a finger on what it is and I can’t pick a direction.  That’s a bad thing for a Taurus to have to admit.  I still have my center, the core of what I am and what I believe in, but the life dilemma is hanging out there, waiting for me to make up my mind and make a positive move… Continue reading For some reason →

It’s an imperfect world ran by imperfect people!  If I can’t, I should be able to because it’s how I feel about life.  Rather than trying to fill my thoughts with the frustration of the repetitive, destructive cycle of most of mankind, I honestly try to think about better things.  But sometimes it just drills a hole in the space my third eye is supposed live in and BOOM!  It gets ugly.

I started out in a $2.20 NLH tournament on PokerStars last night.  Go ahead and click the link and sign up if you want, while you’re doing that, I’ll tell you a little story.  It all started with hand #37.  In the BB, I had 10c-3c, no pre-flop raise, and flopped a four flush.  We were at $25-50 blinds.  I checked, the immediate player on my left – robotron714 – bet $200, everyone else folded and I called.  The turn was a 7, I checked, so did he, the river a 7c, giving me a flush, I checked, so did he.  I won the pot.

I played one hand of the Two 1/4M on PokerStars today.  I looked down to A-A on the first hand.  It’s a bad sign.  You can almost feel the air around you turn to ice and start pressing in on your chest…you ain’t gonna win this hand.  I didn’t.  I raised it to 320, got two callers; flop 8d-kh-3h.  I bet 740, got raised all-in by the Jh-10H…yah, I’m a fish.  I called.  No waiting, 8h on the turn and 2c on the river left this little fishie flapping on the rail.  Fuck em, that’s all I have to say about it! On to other things. Continue reading CRIPES! →

As I got ready to head out of Las Vegas on Thursday, I stopped by the old digs and picked up Riot for a few days.  It created a small dilemma.  I had also planned to pick up my media pass for the WSOP and I knew I could take Riot down the hallways of the world’s biggest poker extravaganza but I didn’t want to trip into the media area with him to pick up the pass.  I called Jennifer Newell and she agreed to stay with Riot for five minutes in the hallway while I got the pass. Continue reading Stopping by the Rio →

Dentist survival rule #1, take a drug before you go if you have one, if not, ask for one from a friend that has their own supply. Continue reading Hola! →

Tomorrow it’s up and on the road.  The Rio is going to be one of my stops as I check in for my media pass, but it’s not my primary reason for going to Vegas.  I’m checking into a hotel tomorrow night so I can make the 7 a.m. chair at the dentist’s office on Wednesday.  If all goes well, I should be back at my hotel by 3 or 4 p.m.  Maybe even sooner. Continue reading The WSOP and Vegas on the horizon →

My blogging team member, Dr. Dad AKA Clearspine, wants the rain to leave.  I want her to come back.  This little angel face turned one year old yesterday and cut her first tooth all in the same day.  She’s a beauty!
