Watch this, next time you take a bad beat....

Interview after:

I just got around to watching it on the DVR, and that's about as a bad a beat as anyone can take, especially with the stakes that are on the line. My hat's off to this young man for not losing it entirely, although I'm sure the libation's may have help to ease the pain.

The November 9 final table is tomorrow, and I will probably keep tabs on it, although will have to check to see who is covering. Too bad they don't do the PPV, I think they are missing out.

The Rush

Been feeling 'The Rush' at the $1 rush cash tables. I'm having some decent results, and the rakeback is pretty nice too. But I've been missing the rush of getting deep in a tournament as of late, and I got that old feeling again in last night's 12K rebuy:

Funny thing happened 3 handed, one of the guys disconnected. So I was playing heads up against the chip leader, with one guy basically sitting out. Kinda mess with the dynamics. At any rate, I got coolered and then the chip leader got to blind out the disco guy. I'm sure he was pissed.

Fun Hands

Obviously would have preferred to won the latter hand:

Beyond the Felt

Interesting series....total of 13 episodes, you can find them all on youtube. Here's the 1st:

No cigar again

I think I just got tired at the end. Pretty disappointing to say the least. But at least it's a step in the right direction. Not bad actually for a $9 investment.

Funny PSA

Be aware....going to fellow blogger LJ's blog may be hazardous to your computer's health! LOL!

Maybe that's why she's now primarily blogging from CardRunners. Which reminds me that if you play at FullTilt, and are not taking advantage of the Free Cardrunners offer, you are missing out.

And in case you don't know, LJ has been tearing it up on Fulltilt, which is always nice to see a fellow blogger do well.

On the other hand, I'm on the other side of the coin. 2010 is turning out to be a very weird year for me. The first half saw me have tremendous success on the poker front, winning a bunch of tournaments, including my biggest payday ever. I was chatting last night with NewinNov, and mentioned how I am very streaky. When I'm hot, I can't do wrong, but when I'm running cold, it's freezing cold! And that's where I've been stuck the latter half of 2010 to date. I hope that will change, but it is frustrating, and if your going to play tournaments, you have to grow a pretty thick outer layer or you'll go bonkers.

At any rate, I'll keep plugging along, and we'll see if the last quarter of 2010 has a bit of turn to the plus side (LJ Style!).
