Recent thoughts too long for Twitter

- I applied to play in PokerStars’ World Blogger Championship of Online Poker (WBCOOP).  I doubt they’ll accept my application, given how often I update this here blog.
- Speaking of PokerStars, I’m intrigued by the North American Poker Tour they recently announced.  There is going to be a stop at Mohegan Sun as part of [...]

Friday thoughts

- Playing in a big poker tourney tonight.  I’m the defending champ, so I know there will be a bullseye on my back, so I’ll be playing the tightest, most conservative poker I can in the early rounds, and opening up later.  Position is everything.
- I love playing C-Lo.  Even my mom is hooked.
- Glenn [...]

October 15

- Today would have been my father’s 68th birthday. I dropped by the cemetery, and was reminded what it was like to be 8 years old again. It amazes me that I had so much fun playing Tombstone Hold’em with Last Call Poker, but that one cemetery absolutely cripples me.
- I can’t quit [...]

Sunday

Long Days

Long time, no blog. Let’s jump right in with the thoughts, shall we?
- Flashback albums of the last two weeks have been Yourself or Someone Like You – Matchbox 20, and Pocket Full of Kryptonite – Spin Doctors. And the memories of various parts of high school came flooding back while listening to these.
- [...]

Thursday already?

- Is it really Thursday already? Wow.
- My softball season ended in such heart-breaking fashion that I still can’t believe we lost to a team we beat twice during the regular season by a combined 25 runs. I hate when we lose games that we should win.
- Maybe now that softball is over, [...]

Thursday

- So tired. I didn’t sleep much last night, for some odd reason.
- I need fantasy football advice. Any kits, sites, strategies are welcome. I really need to sit down for a few hours and pour over ESPN’s draft kit. It’s usually pretty good.
- I cut down most of my [...]

Tuesday Thoughts

- While I didn’t see the home run derby last night, I did see highlights on the news and hear the recap on sports radio this morning. I really wish Josh Hamilton had won it, though. Is there a better story in baseball right now than Josh Hamilton? A number one overall [...]
