At least until next year.  No more play this year unless it’s Tripoli, a kids game for pennies that combines poker with a couple of other games that I don’t exactly remember until we play it each year.

Down around $460 or so tonight playing $15/30 LHE, and this definitely doesn’t help the cause.

I met Haley this summer at the WSOP as we both slugged away trying to crank out stuff and keep some sanity.  She often didn’t have a good place to sit, wandering around the Media Room until the second Media Room was opened up.  She always had a kind word, and I tried to help her if I could (which wasn’t much).

A late night of work as we prepare for our trip in a few hours, so I’m multitasking hitting a $1/2 LHE 6-max table when I catch lightning in a bottle twice.  Maybe I am still one of the greatest poker players around today.

Hope everyone is having a great holiday so far.  We have a brief break between Sweetie’s family here in the ATL and heading to my family in Memphis.  I think I did fairly well with her parents, and it was really great seeing marshman88 if only briefly as he hustled back to G-Vegas to see his lady friend.

This comment thread is from an excellent response to the article by Blinders.  (link to article http://pokerworks.com/article-735.html)

cmitch and newcomer VinNay fought for an hour or more HU, cmitch coming back from a 7:1 chip deficit to take the final event of the year, a nice prelude to hopefully a great trip to the Bahamas.

My sleep is all screwed up now after staying up until 6:00AM this morning not playing poker.  Plus I got berated by my dentist for not having my wisdom teeth out.  I’m done with the work for tonight, just trying to win back my losses for the evening after running into a weak/tight guy that couldn’t lay down his made hands.  Jerk.

I got to watch Justin Timberlake host Saturday Night Live this weekend, one of the funniest episodes in recent time. It will be hard to get this song out of your head after watching the video.
