Good. Somber. Bad

Good

Empire poker game me 25 bucks... sent me a CD, said if I use it, they would put 25 bucks into my account.. yeah right, I said.. I'm sure it is bonus money.. but, since I am bored, I insert the CD and get empire poker going long enuff to fill out my personal info.. that was about 10 days ago.. fast forward to 3 days ago..

they actually did put 25 bucks into my account... in addition, they put 25 dollars as a sign up bonus, into my bonus account.. with a raked hand req of 125 hands..

fast foward to now.. I have 56 really dollars, in my really account, from playing solid NL holdem at the 25 dollar buyin tables.. and over half the hand requirement completed..

I also have 3/5 beers in me.. which is why I quit..and why I am here...

Somber

I've been working 12 14 16 hours a day for the last 10 days or so.. and I am just plain dog tired...... exhausted.. prolly shouldn't of fired up empire once I got home from work today.. but, my mentality was, its free money, and I might get lucky.. and I did... other than that.. not much poker to report...

Bad

I may have to work this weekend... and this weekend, is the Austin Invitational... argggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Busted out with a suited A

A5s vs AA needless to say, I was way behind... lost of spades showed up, but, I had clubs...

Freeroll over.. I managed to get a nap in before hand, but that was not enuff to get rid of my headache, 100%. Plus, I was seriously cold decked, which left me bored rather quickly...

I got another volunteer even in the morning.. so, prolly best I went out.. I was not really into anyway...

( I really don't like Noble Poker )

April was still in... hopefully she will do well and represent AUSTIN!!! Scott sorta went out before I did, altho, I surmise, it was most likely far more spectacular than my demise.... that prolly won't make him feel any bettre tho.. heh.

Thanks to BBPGuru from Blind Bet Poker for setting it up.... despite my foul demeanor, I did have fun....

Peace

Work Work Work

I am at work today.. have been since 9 am. Today is saturday.. I would rather be pretty much anywhere else, but here.. but, due to things that I really can't explain, I am here.. and here I must stay..

I have acquired a headache.. and this worries me, because tonight I am signed up for a $500 freeroll on Noble.. and I am not sure that I will be able to hang.. I am gonna need a nap and if I do not get out of here soon.. that nap is going to run into the tourney time...

Hopefully tho.. I will be out of here soon... we shall see....

Oh, I been playing Holdem, regularly, for 1 Year now... haven't been blogging that long tho, not quite yet... so the, yearly memoir thing has to wait.. :)

Robots

Got it from Shelly, who got it from, AlCantHang, who got it from, someone...

Neat Idea

Bob, over at The Degenerate Gambler has what I think is a swell idea for a tourney....

Austin Poker Superstars, check it out.

( I think his name is Bob, I'm getting old and my memory is failing )


I am using Bloglines for my poker blogging links... I have had bloglines for awhile, but, I just now got around to using it, and some of its features.. pretty neat... I may have missed one or two people... not to worry tho... I'll get it all sorted out before the end of the year......

Today is Friday and I am so looking forward to 3pm... 6 hours to go...

Check out the forums over at Blind Bet Poker. Our very own April is a moderator over there... some good topics of discussion have sprung up...

Survivor and Amazing Race are going to be back on the air within the next 30 days... I am more excited about Amazing Race tho.. this time around, they are using a family theme.. I worry tho, perhaps they might exploiting the children.... lets hope not.

Done. Peace.
