Ug. That's about all I can say about tonight. I was hoping to ride last week's performance into something better this week, but it was not to be. It was one of those nights… Read More

Things actually went well this game. For the most part. Although I think the key hand was quite a bit of luck. Very early on Jason S is the short stack at the table and goes all in. Jason… Read More

So I've decided I'm no longer any good at poker. In fact I'm pretty terrible. I have no reads on anyone. Every time I try to take a stab at a pot I get raised, every time I'm tentative I… Read More

So, yeah... That stuff I mentioned last post about not playing scared trying to eeek out each point. Nevermind. Still playing like crap. Things started out well enough, but after… Read More

I've been slacking on my WSPL-GtV updates. I'm not sure how interesting summaries of small tournies actual are, especially when I'm not to happy with my performance. So lets talk about… Read More

So even though I didn't qualify for one of our league's WSOP entries, I decided I'm going to go anyway. I'll be entering the 1500 NL Holdem event on June 8th. Hopefully I'll do… Read More

Week 12 was fairly anti-climactic. Mark and Rich were almost guaranteed to go to Vegas. Aaron had a chance to knock Rich out if he won and Rich finished in 6th place or worse. I… Read More

We're playing twice this week since the last game was scheduled to be the day after Noah's wedding. Of course since we made a special game for him, Noah managed to not show up. Things did n… Read More

And things get a little more interesting...I had just about resigned myself to the fact that Mark and Rich were going to be the top two finishers in the league. They are in the l… Read More

Mark and Rich are pulling further and further away from the pack, and I have to admit I'm getting pretty frustrated. I've been playing real poorly lately and I think I'm starting to get int… Read More

Week 7 was interesting. For the first hour or so, the short stack couldn't lose an all in. It took over 35 minutes before our first casualty. Aaron and Shane went out around t… Read More

Much to say this week. Not that I have much to say most weeks, but I was watching the Illini/Miami game while this tournament was going on, and I'm a bit disappointed that Illinois did… Read More

To say week 5 went poorly for me would be an understatement. My computer crashed just before the tourney kickoff so I started out alone at the second table. Shane, then Jason tha… Read More

So week four was weird. I don't know if it was the daylight savings time switch that threw everyone off, but something wasn't right.First off, only five of us made it by the tourney st… Read More
