Free Booty
Friday, November 02, 2007
I was poised for another deep run in a BBTwo event last night, but things went sour at the final two tables when I ran QQ into the eventual winners AA. I finished 13th while that hand propelled huntsvegas into a chipstack he could do some damage with, or at the very least, have some breathing room.
Only a few days earlier I had helped him out by trading money on Paypal for money on Full Tilt so he could get in on the BBTwo action. Then I help him by stuffing my chips in the middle with QQ versus AA at a key point in the tourney. Geez, what's next, I make the long trek to his house and wash his car?!
I keed, I keed. A huge congrats to my boy...always good to help a brotha out!
I finished in the money, netting a whopping $1.87 after the buy-in and fees were covered. I'm having McDonalds for lunch today bitches!
I'm currently reading Barry Greenstein's Ace On The River, which I received in the mail from pipedream over at Sitting The Apple. He is a Colorado poker blogger, so maybe he and Peaker can hook up at some point.
Thanks again for the book pipedream. So far I'm enjoying it!
Getting that book reminded me of all the cool swag I've gotten from poker bloggers over the last few years (free booty, if you will). I will inevitably forgot someone, so my apologies in advance, but I'd like to take a moment to thank some folks for cool shit I've gotten on this wild ride I've taken over the years. Some of the stuff I earned in poker contests, but other stuff was completely unexpected, thus kick ask.
Again, my apologies if I forget anyone, but I don't mind being reminded in the comments...
Veneno - A very cool personalized silver card holder
GCox25 - A ton of goodies during Okie1 and Okie2.
Katitude - Awesome poker dice.
Ten Mile - A sweet MoneyMaker card protector.
Maudie - A kick ask shot glass.
Twitch - Some cool casino chips
Gracie - A funky weird CD.
Pipedream - So far so good...Ace On The River book
Instant Tragedy...Just Add Torture - Hooked me up with a cool T-shirt at Okie2
I also got a donkey card capper, but for the life of me, I can't recall who I got it from. I want to say Mookie, but I also want to say that's wrong. I did end up giving the donkey to it's rightful owner, GCox25 during OkieVegas1. Who am I kidding? I would have been better off pulling a rock from his own yard and handing it to him, the rock he is at the tables.
So, from what I can remember, that's it. I'm sure I'm forgetting something though, so set me straight people. Oh, and I missed a link to Wwonka yesterday, so I'm making good on that now.
Three more attempts at implementing SAGE heads-up and still unable to get to that point. I lost two $11 heads-up matches, then won one $22 match and decided to call it a night. Those turbos rarely seem to make it to the higher blind levels where I can implement SAGE it seems. I think I'm gonna have to create another spreadsheet for the regular one table sng's and give them a whirl. Maybe this weekend.
Until next time, may the felt be with you.
