I’ve been looking for a roommate now that you mention it. ---

Several strong players tonight. I went from big stack to small stack and back to big, thanks to sucking out on Capa on a hand that I had no right to be in. A suprise visit by Kitch in the chat was a nice bonus. Results: 1. Dag Otto 2. Misstake (Dag Otto) 3. Kyyrewyyoae (Dag Otto) 4. Capa (Misstake) 5. Duke of Rat (Kyyrewyyoae) 6. Oslo (Capa) 7. Nooky (Kyyrewyyoae) 8. Oakminster (Capa) We have not settled on this site for the games. If others are having trouble, let’s work on finding a place that works for the majority of players. ---

I saw a post on a poker board that NeTeller is reconsidering its position - it may, in the future, bend over for Frist. All in all it’s just another brick in the wall. Keep looking for funding options, people: **This Game Cannot Die**. ---

Poker’s a funny game. I got my ass smoked in about 20 minutes last night. Those second best hands get expensive. Kinda hoping the game stays at Crazy, since I’m all funded and everything. People having funding trouble may want to try click2pay. It’s working fine for me… After my premature exit, I went and played one of the larger tournaments. Finished in 7th place, for $5.85 😃 ---

I didn’t have a chance to get things set up with the new site in time, but I went to Gaming Club last night at about 10:30 and I could see the game from there. Someone said they’re different skins for a common network, and Gaming Club seems to still work fine for me. ---

By the way, Crazy (and the other Microgaming sites) has a Flash player alternative, so our Mac friends can join in. ---

I’ve been loading up and checking the other Microgaming sites. (Not an easy job when internet access is absent 90% of the weekend.) Royal Vegas - rejected my state River Belle - bingo only Bet Holdem - no US players, selling out to Bodog (which is accepting US players) Stans Poker - no US players BetOnUSA - accepted my signup I’ve got a few to go… ---
