Challenge ME?

Some RANDOM BLOGGER sent me a challenge last week.  He said to play ten 5.50 (9) person games and see how well I did.  Well I gave it a half assed attempt.  I played like 4 of them in a row when I was on tilt from a tourney and was 0-4.  So I just gave it up.

But it seems he's doing it himself and is 2 for 2 in cashes.  Nice start, huh? So I'm starting afresh as I know I can do as well if not better. Besides it helps me to have some competition.  We'll see where we end up.

Tonight is live poker at home. $5 per tourney and then The Mookie at 10pm.  JoelThePokerGod (barf) better hope and pray he isn't at my table.  Maybe I'll get lucky and have Lightning to my right.

Play smart.

So wait - you are QUITTING your old challenge that you never finished... and then starting a new fresh one with fresh stats reset to zero?

sounds like trickery to me...

Also, you need to brush up on some BRM (bank roll management) and stop putting 20-30% of your roll into one tournament. Not good.

Schaubs, YES that's exactly what I'm doing. Starting fresh and playing 10 SNGs. It's still a challenge cuz waffles is already up 2 (bfd). I know I SUCK at bankroll management. It seems like the hardest part for me.

@Lightning - I need someone at my table like you, who'll donk off all his chips in 8 minutes or less. :P And honey, try a more modest goal than felting me....like I dunno, winning the noble peace prize!

Slight wrinkle to tonight's plan. I just made a $5 prop bet with Gary that I'd have more net winnings in tonight's live game than him. This is a wrinkle because I usually throw the last game so I can focus on The Mookie. I may have to focus on both games tonight.

Dogs Are Vermin

I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. Sugar Bear does. I especially don't like small dogs. I'm considering getting a dog, a chihuaha.  I must be out of my fucking mind.  The dog needs a home and it's free (I'm fucking cheap).  Sugar Bear doesn't know of this thank goodness. OMFG I should just say NO like Nancy Reagan, or as Waffles said, Barbara Bush.  :P Oh and there are a couple of new blogs on the blog roll over yonder. --->  Check out the newbies, Rob and Cranky.  Good shiat. Josie PS I should really just say no instead of ruining my life, right? PPS As luck would have it Sugar Bear has always wanted a chihuahua specifically.  :(  and a duck.

Upset

I got a lot of much needed sleep last night and woke up with intentions of writing a very funny story but plans have changed my friends. I just read Tony's Latest Post and I'm too worried or upset to write about anything so frivolous.  I think many of his readers just see him as an interesting story, and not a person.  I see the person, who I was trying so very hard to steer away from a train wreck, but it didn't work.  In fact, the part that scares me the most is maybe I, with my good intentions, pushed him further off the cliff.  Maybe I put too much pressure on him to avoid the machines - too much pressure about something he is unable to control.  I need to shut the fuck up and stop giving out unsolicited advice, which most likely will not happen.  I cannot express how badly I feel about this. I was only trying to help because sometimes when you're in the eye of the hurricane you don't have the entire picture, at least not a...
