This is what I call grinding it out at Holdem.

I played for 2.5 hours and left up 17 cents. It was a rough night, at about midnight I told myself I was going to bed once I finished my beer. A few hands later I won a pot for about $4.50 which put me back in the win column. I knew […]

I got hammered at the holdem tables last night.

Well I had one of my worst nights in a very long time on Pokerstars last night. I lost just over $8.00 and that was mainly from losing my stack on one hand (lost about $6.00 on that one hand). I had one of those moments, when I saw that third diamond come […]

Played holdem this weekend, new bankroll high.

Time for a little holdem update. I played some holdem at Pokerstars this weekend - where I started with $2.00 that I won in a freeroll - and my bankroll is now at a all time high of $169.66. To anyone who plays holdem regularly, that isn’t much. For me though, my […]

Amazing video of lightning strike hitting hand!

This is amazing and disturbing at the same time. In case you were wondering, she is totally fine.

Here is this flickr users description:
Because you insisted, here’s the unedited screaming version. I also added video from a minute before the lightning struck so you can get an idea of how hard it was raining. From […]

Bert the African Grey parrot. A year later.

I’m glad I took photos of Bert our African Grey when we first got him. We’ve had him for a little over a year now. I was organizing photos when I came across some of Bert’s newer photos and was surprised to see the difference in his feathers from a year ago. […]

Playing holdem in the morning. A new strategy?

I basically never play holdem in the morning, I may have to change that though. The only time I played this weekend was Sunday morning, and in 15 minutes I had won over $10 at $0.02/$0.05 NL holdem. I don’t really think it had anything to do with the time of the day. […]

After 9 days off, I play holdem again.

I played holdem online at Pokerstars for the first time in 9 days last night. I wish I had something exciting to report, but nothing spectacular ever happened. My brother showed up with his motorcycle to show off his new exhaust, and he decided to sit in on my session so we could […]

Hitler gets banned from poker.

I still haven’t had time to play any holdem online, I last played on 7/1/08. Maybe tonight? At least my account hasn’t been suspended or closed like Hitler’s. This is subtitled and some of it is vulgar, if that doesn’t bother you, then this is very funny!

Do you love thunderstorms?

I love thunderstorms, but between wreaking havoc at work and on my golf addiction, they don’t love me. Thunderstorms are an unusual blend of beauty and ugliness, which is why they are so intriguing. This past Wednesday, July 2nd, I witnessed some of the more severe storms I can remember. I was […]

Storms wash away my plans.

After weeks of anticipating upgrading my Flickr account when I reached 200 photos, I did so yesterday on my lunch hour. While organizing my Flickr photostream with more sets and now collections, storms roll through and knock out power (as well as flood areas, in the building even). I end up spending 17 […]
