On the Third Day of Biggestron

Biggestron says to you:
3. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukka and all the Best of the Holidays to you.
May your Festivus pole stand straight and tall.
If I were clever I would have had the 12 days of Biggestron end on this day.
Most likely it will be done sometime in mid-February.
A post I never wrote
And a [...]

On the Second Day of Biggestron

Biggestron says to you:
2. The Post I Never Wrote
It is appropriate that I interrupt the flow of my 12 days of Biggestron while putting this piece of information into play.
I played in a $1500 event in the 2006 World Series of Poker.
Maybe not too big of a deal to most people, but it was [...]

Play at FullTilt

This is a paid advertisment.
A favorite site of mine is Full Tilt Poker. The interface is great, the action is always hot, and there are tournies for players at every level. On top of that, you never will know when you’ll find yourself in a sit&go with a pro like Howard Lederer or [...]

Losing Your Mojo

There are a few incidents from last weekend that stand out in my mind. I talked about the Rooster’s Dutch Boydesque tour of the IP poker room in the wee hours after the tourney in my last post. Here is another one.

2007 will go down as the weekend I got even.
As in every dollar I spent I managed to win it back somewhere else. Most of the winning was done at the poker table, where I booked smallish, but consistent wins. The game didn’t matter – NL cash, NL tourney (18th for my second [...]

The Zen of Vegas

Flipping through the 50-odd blogs I browse on my oh-so-nifty google reader I was feeling inspired to dig up some of my old posts and link back to myself. After all, this is my third winter event and 5th trip-to-Vegas-just-because-some-bloggers-are-there trip.

Drizz, All Your Aces Are Belong to Us

I love this quote on the possibility of the Twin’s Santana donning a Sox jersey next year:
