Memories,

Thursday, January 31st, 2008


Like the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were.

Harrah’s is no more

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

At least the public version with audited everything. Last night finished the company’s public front. No need to expect major changes or any form of reporting. (more…)

Variety is still the Spice of Life

Monday, January 28th, 2008

It was the $50K HORSE that set a lot of people on the path to the world beyond Texas Hold’em. That did it for me. I never really got a handle on the high-low side of the game. Or if I somewhat did, I wasn’t enamored with it that much. I guess it plays with my mind more than I like. (more…)

A typical weekender

Sunday, January 27th, 2008
Got this as an email. Interesting, I guess. It is one of those things we seldom pay attention to and, when we do, we can make it more important than it is. Suitable for one of my weekend post. Sorry about the gaudy formatting. What can I say? I guess to lazy to clean it up. (more…)

Frank, Iggy and the Cast of Thousands

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Iggy’s blog riles against Absolute and the fiasco in the wings that online poker has staring it in its face. Of course it’d have been better if it hadn’t started out with a replacement for Jim Garrison being quoted. But, the topic is a dieing one that deserves legs and I invite other to join the witch hunt.

Smart Limit

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

<> is programmer talk for not equal. As a programmer, you deal in absolutes. Computers are designed to function in such a manner. At the limit tables I am frequenting, the decision tree is far more obscure. I try to avoid getting into the oxymoron argument in this one. (more…)

Low Rent

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

God we are smart. If we aren’t, well, a book or two will get us there. We learn all about implied odds and post oak bets and the check raise. We see ourselves as level 2 or level 3 thinkers – and maybe we are. (more…)

Lookin around

Sunday, January 20th, 2008

I’ve got another post about poker that I am working on. In the meantime I’m reading the site. We’ve got some good stuff up. On the weekends, traffic – for me a least – tanks. If you’ve had a great weekend without visiting, be sure to back up a bit and check out the posts that hit since your last visit. (more…)

It is the Weekend

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

 

And, it is caucus day in Los Vegas. The Unions are supposed to have rigged the caucus activity so that they are happening right in the casinos. Got a joke in that area in the email. I’d throw in a couple of political ones too but they are getting as nasty as the candidates. (more…)

Maxi-Venting

Friday, January 18th, 2008

A young player is trying to get a handle on freerolls in the Chasing Chris blog here. I think she’s making strong improvements. Today, she vented on the unfairness of it all – AKA The Card Fairy. (more…)
