I’m not playing tonight either, FWIW: I’ve been on a 4-month losing streak – both in our games and in my real-world Friday tournaments – and am starting to get a little tilt-y. So I’m taking (at least) a week off from poker. :eek: 🙂 ---

Hey, y’all… much as I’d love to be a sneaky mf’er, I’ve got a power outage at home and am sitting at a bar hogging their wireless and functioning on quickly waning battery power. I’m desperately trying to transfer money to GO so that he can play tonight, but I can’t figure out how to do it on GC. Anybody know? Also, is he Gangster Octopus on GC or SYNW or what? ---

Never mind. Heroic b/f thought he remembered that GO had posted his alias in this thread, and sure enough, I found it. Panic over, money transferred, all is well. Depending on my stamina, battery power, or power situation at home, I may be able to join you guys tonight. If not, good luck, all!!! ---
