After a horrible, horrible few weeks of college football picks, I finally come out ahead. And, believe it or not, it's all due to those kings among men of the east, Central Florida, covering the spread against the football powerhouse that is the Houston Cougars.The Golden Knights, in addition to winning me mega-phat points in my sports betting league, also become bowl eligible with their win

Noticed this little tidbit on Daniel Negreanu's blog... Well, when the rest of the table saw that Phil [Hellmuth] was leaving, they stopped the game and begged him to come back. They promised that they would change the game to whatever Phil wanted to play. Personally I didn't care as I wasn't planning on staying, but they were able to eventually coerce Phil back into the game. Refresh my memory..

Wisconsin v. Northwestern. Wisconsin is at 4th and inches. They decide to go for it.Commentator: "I think this is an extremely bad decision on Wisconsin's part. They're not going to make this most of the time. They're better off punting."Wisconsin makes it.Commentator: "Well, of course, against this Northwestern defense, they're going to make that first down at least 85% of the time."

I build up a fairly good chip stack and buzz early on, then ran into an evil and interminable run of bad cards--luckily, this did not affect the beer delivery.

There was some forgettable documentary on ye olde witche boxe today about con men in the early 1900s.

A few weeks ago, T and I were at one of our local chain eateries for a quick bite. Having no tables available, and with smoking confined to the bar, we sat at the bar. Sitting atop the bar was a small plastic gizmo--we've all seen them, usually they hold drink specials, or the beer of the week, or other such nonsense. This one held an ad for the World Tavern Poker tour. Hmmm, said I, and told

...it's for another reason.'Twas down the glen one Easter morn To a city fair rode I. There armed lines then of marching men In squadrons passed me by. No pipe did hum, no battle drum Did sound its dread tattoo. But the Angelus bell o'er the Liffey's swell Rang out in the foggy dew. Right proudly high in Dublin town They hung out the flag of war. 'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky Than at

So, no shit, there I was...It was a $10 STT at pokerchamps. it was bubble time, and I was shortstacked (about T5600). I find the hiltons UTG, and raise it 500. Everyone calls...which I don't like to see.The flop comes TT6 and I know I'm fucked. Especially when the BB throws in T3000.I sit back for a minute and ponder for a moment. Then Pauolo jumps up on the desk."You pussy," he says, "It's

0930am - The phone rings. T summons me to her parent's house where I am to install poker software for Bill, since he's not that computer aware. I mumble my assent, with assurances that I'll be there in an hour.1015am - I get out of bed and stumble towards the shower, then realize that it is, in fact, 1015am. Fastest...shower...ever.1022-1032am - I respectfully decline to discuss this time

Felicia-inspired Post-bender rewrite (stupid beer...):Sure, Phil's a dick, but he lent his name to this and that's awlright in my book. The government of the State of Texas has deemed this illegal, however, and laid down a healthy dose of the Kibosh.I'm all for following the law. I don't kill people. I don't rob banks. Law=good!

Ever have one of those hands that, no matter what, you just can't seem to dump even when you know it has no possible chance of ever winning?When I first started playing online (whilst in Korea), it was on Party (bonus code: IGGY, dammit). On the whole, I lost more than I won. I have an unfortunate habit of learning stuff about things before I mess around with them. I devoured all the info on 2+2

Wow....there's been a lot of stress and snappy words exchanged between the members of the WPBT. And others are getting angry about THAT...This makes me a little relieved. Why? Because if things like this didn't happen, THEN I'd get worried. :) People are not designed to get along perfectly. If they did, there'd never be crime, there'd never be stress. We'd all be fat and lazy.Poker players are

Not 20 minutes after posting the kegerator photo, I get a call from a buddy of mine asking me, "why the hell I want one of those?"I kinda thought it was obvious."Dude! Kegs!"No, not really. It did make me think for a minute. Basically, there're six reasons: 1. No more bottles. Bottling beer is a pain in the ass. You have to be in the right frame of mind. The siphon hose always gets curled up
