Snuck another $1 into my stack during the midnight NL Freeroll. Way too late for me to be playing. That’s 20 weeks worth now, boys and girls. ---

I’m getting some money off those freerolls too; either there are more idiots playing or I’m actually playing better…or maybe I’m less of an idiot when I play now. ---

Friday night, with stack averages of about 4,000, you managed to work up to 26,000, then blow it. I’m guessing the working it up to 26,000 was the luck part, right? 😃 ---

Descriptions like that always make me wonder what the betting was. If you got all your money in on the flop, and he hit the miracle king to beat you, that’s one thing. If you were slow-playing the flop, and only bet big after he hit his kings full, that’s quite another. And I’m trying to roll this thread to another page quickly, so I don’t have to see myself in 5th place every time I click on it. ---

[/QUOTE] I was pretty much all over it right off the bat, he had like twice my chips and called right away. The blinds are so high that even 26K is only a couple of rounds, you gotta go downtown when you get even a hint of a hand or the next guy will. But I was propelled last night by a disgruntled customer who thought KK was good enough against my AA, so it evens out. [QUOTE=Oslo Ostragoth] Duke - you gonna be chatty tomorrow?

And, FWIW, I broke down and am reading _“Harrington on Hold 'em”_ so be afraid. Be very afraid. (However, I just played the $1 freezeout aggro and went out very fast. Gah.) ---
