A hand that steamed **Nook** :

Preflop odds: **Oslo** 30%, **Kyy** 32%, **Nook** 38%. Much tighter than I would have thought.

After the flop: **Oslo** 42%, **Kyy** 6%, **Nook** 52%.

The turn club gave **me** the triple-up to save my bacon and **Nook** a case of heartburn when he heard the sad Hulk-walking-away music as he retreated to the rail.

Chiming in to say I’m alive, but extremely busy on Thursdays…last Thursday I was taking our youngest for vision therapy up near Sacramento…425 miles each way…driving…from 6:30am…till midnight. But it was worth it. I will still try to make it here and there to mix things up for you guys.

Reminder: Tomorrow night on CBS is “Pirate Master”, a reality show set on the ship that **RobotArm** sailed last year. I’ll watch it once, just to see the ship.

I have money. I’m in 10th place out of 10 in a 6700 player freeroll. I was 2nd of 14 but fucked that up. Blinds are 3/4 of my stack, but it’s still $10.

OK, out in 10th, $10.

And lost it all in about 5 hands in money games.

I’ll try to place in another freeroll and go from there.

I swear, I hate to rail about bad beats, but I don’t think I won a single hand in real money after lasting through a 6700 freeroll. I know, I know, but still…

Crazypoker, which is just another microgaming site so it’s about the same as the Gaming Room (in fact, it’s exactly the same interface, just a different skin). I think you can enter the weekly game from either site. Funding is the issue right now, hence Duck trying his hand at the freerolls. Where were we at the last time you played?

If anyone wants to discuss thread titles for the next quarter (beginning July 5), how about something like “Dopers of the Caribbean - The Edge of the World”? Or “The Donks of the World”?
