About damn time I'm back in 4 digits. I'll have a tournament summary when I get back from camping on Sunday (maybe I'll play some sats to get into the Sunday Million too.)

So close to 100nl aka the Aquarium, and I'm playing better than ever before.

keep it going keep it going

running bad

I would post every 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, 80/20 and worse that I lost today, but it wouldn't make sense to some of you, and the rest of you have seen it all before.

I missed the FT in all 30 tournaments I entered today.

blahh

No update on the raccoons. I guess that's that for them. My mom is going to get a chimney plug soon.

Here in Saint Paul, I'm working full time, running, and hanging out with friends. It unfortunately leaves little time for poker.

The World Series of Poker recently announced that the final table from this summer will be played out in November like some sort of reality show. While I think it's a very poor move on the part of the WSOP, I'd like to wish luck to Tom, Gabe, and Joel regardless.

A few weeks ago, a doppelganger sat to my right.. He proceeded to stack me on the second hand that I played, KK < 99.


Hopefully no more R2D2's show up today when I play tournaments.
