Nice to see the fine IT folks over at Pokertropolis work out all the bugs before releasing a new version. ---

I logged on last night, no updates or funny business. Maybe Yeti better try to get his update a few hours ahead of time… In other news, I had my best single session ever last night, $167 winnings in about 5 hours, never had to re-buy. ---

**Duke** that’s awesome. Glad you had such a good night. I think I’m probably out for tonight. I’ve been run pretty ragged over the last week and I think it’s probably a good idea for me to lay low and get to bed early. ---

> [@Exploding Kitchen](#): > > I’ll be here to have my 6 dimes taken away again. Yeah, sorry about that. If it’s any consolation, you got out early last week. The rest of us got strung along and still didn’t have much of a game. ---

All right. My pal, Allen, says **lightingtool** (a.k.a. redhat) has been added and the tournament will be listed shortly. ---

> [@Kyyrewyyoae](#): > > This better be code for “Date with Crazy Lady.” Sorry to disappoint the _schaudenfreude_ of the masses here, but no, not code. Traveling to a conference last weekend and then right back into work (and playing catchup all week), then running trivia at the bar tonight…well, that’ll give you one keel-hauled **Capn**. I’ll prolly check in on AIM, just to see what’s doing. ---

Hell, might as well bot it, you may perk up. That’s my motto (well, one of them): Revive at 5! So how was San Antone?? ---

> [@Aholibah](#): > > All right. My pal, Allen, says **lightingtool** (a.k.a. redhat) has been added and the tournament will be listed shortly. Hey, thanks a lot. Just to be confusing, I go by redhat over there, and most other places. I just got back from Vegas where I lost (rather quickly) in every tournament I played in, so I’m either ready for a comeback, or continuing my downward spiral. On a completely unrelated note, I’ve never actually used AIM before. Should I just open it up and wait for one of you folks to contact me? My AIM name is lightingtool, by the way. ---
