Shooting Craps..

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

 The poker wars continue. I still can’t get past Go in any tournament, let alone actually cash. It is all a crap shoot played with cards instead of dice. I really suck at craps, so my chances of beating 14,000 crap shooters are slim and none. (more…)

Fundamentals of Fun

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

Even though I hate the Card Fairy, and I want to chop up a deck of Kem Cards and light them on fire as I blast them out of a cannon, there’s really nothing wrong with my sense of humor and the poker groove. I just do not catch cards - no human card rack here - no matter the game, I pick up the opposite of what I’m playing. Holdem finds me drawing 2-3, 6-4, 9-2, blah, blah. Razz finds me drawing J-J-10, A-K-Q, K-K-J, and the cycle doesn’t change much. (more…)

Moseying Along

Friday, June 27th, 2008

I wish I had something truly earth-shattering to say today, but I am afraid there is just the same old moldy and dusty textbook on my desk.  The title is “How To Do Nothing With Your Bankroll in 7 Months.” (more…)

Poker and the Toad Pond

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

I have no idea what has been wrong but I haven’t felt like playing. I have played maybe 20 minutes the last few days.  Late on Tuesday (or early Wednesday morning) I jumped in a Stud H/L 3/6 game on PokerStars and promptly dumped $50 and quit.  I got in a 2/4 late last night and won back $25 of it and quit.  Nothing has looked good until today… (more…)

The romance is gone

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

I’m beyond sick of it. It’s the typical ‘never win with a pair of aces’ even if you had a fucking bazooka shoved up their ass and told them you were going to pull the trigger if they called you. (more…)

You Gotta Love It

My husband told me when we were dating, “Stick with me and I can promise that you will never be bored.” (more…)

Here’s how it’s been going

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

I’ve obviously been playing. It’s not been very pretty. I’ve had the run from hell and managed to sit card dead for years and never even put any money in the pot other than blinds and antes. One tournament I played 2 hands in - obviously they were no good, 10’s one hand and K’s on the one that ousted me. Don’t think that means I think I’m a great player because I waited for skill cards, I don’t. But when you snug up for the long haul, you just can’t play anything marginal and I haven’t been. I think I went through over 20 or so tourneys without a cash. Poor baby bankroll. (more…)

Play Time…

Sunday, June 22nd, 2008

 There hasn’t been much of it lately….time to play that is. And when I have time the games are nothing enticing. I have bounced in and out of a few Stud H/L games and picked up a few chips. I missed today’s $100k event on PokerStars, dumb me just forgot! (more…)

Wham, Bam, Thank You Ma’am!

I jumped right in to the Ultimate Bet 9:15 p.m. Freeroll with a pocket pair of Aces.  (more…)

Hit & Run…

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

 Last night (Wednesday) while watching Linda in a NLH tournament on PokerStars, I put my name up for a 1/2 S H/L game that looked pretty lively. The first hand I played was after pitching about 12 hands. I picked 3 hearts and called. (more…)
