I'm done with bad movies forever! (Curtains Poker)

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:34:03 GMT

I saw the Visitor about a week or two ago, and it was the straw that broke the camel's back. I'm completely finished with rubbish movies, mainly mainstream Hollywood stuff. I'm turning into my mom or into one of those snobby movie people, I know, but these Hollywood movies are so bad. Me and Susan watched Akeelah the Bee last night and somehow this movie got very good reviews despite the fact that...

Went back in time (Curtains Poker)

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:19:51 GMT

and looked at the archives of this LJ and realized what an idiot I was! Also noted that I routinely seemed to talk about playing 2-2.5 hour sets. HOW WAS I POSSIBLY ABLE TO PLAY SO LONG IN A ROW? Good news is I own everyone at short stacking...had one bad month but since then everything seems back to normal.

The Case Ace (Life as a Vegas poker dealer)

noreply@blogger.com (--S) — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 22:24:00 GMT

Dealing a no-limit game this morning; the 2-seat is acting a cutup and keeping the table laughing, jovial, and fun to be at. Every time he's in one of the blinds, he posts by standing his chips on end in an attempt to get the dealer to try and pitch his cards underneath the chip without knocking it over (easier to do with the dealer button, let me tell you). At any rate, I just ignore it each time...

This guy was an avid hunter, loved the outdoors and apparently ate the Deer he killed. This gave him a debilitating disease that will cost 40,000 for treatment. Now this Gentleman...

The New Job (Poker Heaven)

I'm really enjoying my new job at The Poker Channel. The work is enjoyable and challenging and exactly what I needed. Call me a sadist, if you will, but I'm actually enjoying the commute as well. Alright, I admit, getting out of bed when there is a 6 at the start of the alarm clock isn't great but it goes some way to experiencing the sleep loss the wife is suffering due to the baby.

Snowdrift Peak (Poking and Peaking)

I learned how to climb in the summer, usually in late July or early August, with two of my climbing buddies, Mike and Jack. They're almost one entity, MikeandJack. Dad met the two on a hike, and as we got more experience and began climbing harder and more remote peaks, we started to plan out our trips together. Jack, an English professor who writes historical novels, now lives in Estes Park and Mike...

British Open (Tilting at Windmills)

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 16:07:06 GMT

If you're even a casual golf fan, the British Open is worth watching. It's ridiculously windy, one guy 4 putted from 18" (I can do that without any wind), and Greg Norman is tied for the lead. He's really the story, to be contending at 53 is unbeleivable. I would love to see him win after all the chokes in majors all those years ago. As ABC keeps reminding us, he was the world #1 for 6 straight years....
