When my wife and I moved out here, it was supposed to be temporary. My wife and I have always maintained that when we started our family we would venture back home. Well life has finally come full circle, seven years later, two kids, a dog and some other stuff, we are finaly going back home....

So last night I played 3 SNGS. It was truely a horrible experience. The first one I was card dead the whole time. The blinds were fast approaching 100/200 and I had about 700 in chips left. I picked up AA and of course as always I didnt get any action. The very next hand I picked up JJ. I bet 300...

Not the TV show, but the marathon Friday Five last night. The evening started just as the sun went down, and ended just before the sun came up. It was truly a grinding experience. Ten people descended upon this week’s Friday Five, it was a who's who of Weston Pokers elite corp. We had two 4 time ...

After 3 months of playing limit poker, I have decided to go back to NL. Why? Well in the last 3 months I have actually lost money, but with bonuses and rakeback I have only lost about $600. In the first 5 months of the year I won 5K playing NL, so its time to go back to my roots and push my bankr...

I have been really busy lately and my blog has suffered. I will try and get back on course this week and post every couple of days, with that said, I played in the DSOP this last Friday night.

Have you ever played the game called Slap Jacks? It's a crazy fun game that I played often as a child. The object of the game is to accumulate all the cards. Everyone is dealt a card in succession until all the cards are dealt from the deck. Once all...

I'm back. I spent the entire 4 day weekend with the family, well not the entire weekend, I did go up to choctaw Friday night, but I have not played any poker since then.

Last week wasn't very nice, I busted out second at the weston poker tourney on Saturday and then ran up to Choctaw and lost $200 up there.

So first the tourney, the hand that did me in was KK vs QQ. I had KK and Crown called me down to the river with QQ. He ended up rivering the flus...

Well this week has been rather disappointing. First we lost both softball games this week, that hasn't happened in a long time. We couldn't get the bats going and gave up a bunch of runs on errors. Disappointing.

Last weekend I had the privilege of being invited to play in one of the DSOP’s Friday Night events. Let me first say they have a pretty nice setup, they have 4 tables nicely spaced apart. They have non alcoholic beverages that you make partake in and during the first break they have someone cook....

I'm trying to qualify for the quarter million tourney on absolute. Its  completely free and first place gets 50k, not to shabby for a freeroll. In order to qualify you must play in a satellite tourney where everyone at the final table gets an entry. Absolute runs these qualifiers 3 times a d...

When Rocky was chosen to fight Apollo Creed, he trained in the streets. It wasn't until he caught the chicken that he was ready to fight. When Rocky became the world champ, he got complacent and eventually lost to Clubber Lang. Rocky however learned from this defeat, with the help ...

Cy young's 511 wins, Nolan Ryans 7 no hitters, and Hank Aaron's 755 home runs are among the greatest sporting records of all time. As Barry Bonds closes in on one of those recoreds there isn't a red blooded American that wouldn't love to be there when he does. The thing about records is they are ...
