Where Did the Moron Go?

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

Instead of reading this post with the mind-set of “Jesus, Speaker’s talking about losing at poker again. I can’t stand it,” it might be more palatable if you enjoy the fly on the wall aspect of watching lousy people play lousy poker and laugh at them, as I eventually was able to do after brief Incredulity Tilt.

Or, if you want, I can just sing for you, the same way I serenaded several dealers later in the evening. I don’t know when it happened, but I now tend to sing when I get drunk.

You’ve been completely warned.

Mea Culpa

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

I signed on to Full Tilt last night to check out the action in the Battle of the Bloggers Freeroll and…well…I’m an addict, so I decided to play some myself, since I didn’t qualify for the A-List Tourney.

And I ruined it for everybody.

Running Bad: The Pop Culture Edition

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

For about a month now, I’ve been searching in vain for some results at the poker tables. My play? Comes and goes. Good and not so good. But the results?

Locals Only

Congratulations are in order for the charitable Jerry Yang for his win in the World Series of Poker Main Event. By all appearances, he provides a nice counter-point to last year’s champion in the humility department.

He’s also from my neck of the woods. IE! IE! IE! Oy! Oy! Oy!

Joe Speaker’s Raw

Friday, July 13th, 2007

I’m about ready to snap. It’s been a terribly difficult week for a number of reasons and right now I feel like my nerve endings are poised for a freak out of monumental proportions. One I’ll be very embarrassed by later.

So I figure I’ll just ramble here for a little bit, since this won’t be my first embarrassing moment on teh intarwebs.

Where Everybody Knows Your Game

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

The Gold Coast is less a casino than a corner pub. Vegas locals leap from table to table, greeting the dealers by name.

The usual, please.

My New Toy

Sunday, July 8th, 2007

Those of you who have read me for a long time will know that I’m all about the group. Selfless. Community-oriented. Unlike other (read: better) poker players, I am not about to keep a good thing a secret.

Which is why I get my as stuffed in blogger tournaments, because I’ve told everyone how I play. You’re welcome.

Pay That Man His Money

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

Erick Lindgren is insane. When the Hall of Fame for Prop Bets is erected in Primm, NV, that golf course stunt should be at the center of everything, with all lesser wagers emenating from a gold pantheon.

Okay, maybe that’s a little extreme, but still. That was awesome.
