[QUOTE=Oslo Ostragoth] Seriously? You don’t want to participate in our AIM chatrooms during the game? If you don’t, that’s fine. Just trying to understand… [/QUOTE] Noo no no… Missy was a spectator in the game I was playing, right after I got my new AIM name. I just didn’t want to clutter up the game chat talking to her, and didn’t want to tell her to AIM me on the game chat, so I was giving her a shout here to “AIM me” so I didn’t have to “chat on the game” chat screen with her. FWIW, we both sucked. At least Missy got busted by Gus Hansen. But I’m re-AIMed with a new name and ready to bust up that anti-Duck collusion ring you guys got going. 😉 ---

No, he meant while we were both playing last night. I commented at his table. He, obviously not wanting his tablemates to know he not the completely evil and ruthless person he was portraying at his table, suggested I open AIM. Well, _he_ was playing more than I. I was sucking. Bad. _sigh_ ---

[QUOTE=Duke of Rat] Man, I hate that AIM. [/QUOTE] Did you ever try out Trillian? Once you have the AIM account, you can access it through Trillian and avoid the crapfest of AIM. ---

I’m good now, downloading and installing was the part I hate. Now that that’s done, I’m happy as long as I don’t have to download and install anything else. ---

Finished 97th out of 3800 last night for another cool 100 cents on the freeroll. I was as high as 8th place early on, but always stayed in the top 100 until I got my AK cracked by A9 when a 9 popped up on the turn…otherwise, I felt like I was playing my hands pretty well and sucked out alot of fish oil from the other players. I’m signing up for tonight, but realistically…it’s a 50/50 chance that I’ll be actually playing. ---

Man, those late freerolls are soft compared to the early one 🙂 I just can’t start a tourney that late on a weeknight. The only reason I was in the one last Friday was because I thought I’d signed up for the 7:30 (5:30 for you I guess) and wasn’t signed up. I was sitting here wondering why the heck the table didn’t pop up and realized I wasn’t in it :smack: ---

The standings for the quarter: 1 Oslo Ostragoth 68.8 2 Duke of Rat 63.9 3 Dag Otto 61.8 4 Kyyrewyyoae 60.7 5 Robot Arm 57.6 6 Asterion 56.7 7 Nanook of the North 52.1 8 Miss Take 50.3 9 Yeticus Rex 19.2 Holy **crap**! How can I be in the lead? If anyone wants to take over/shadow the spreadsheet, step up and volunteer. Yeti, it looks like you need to step up to the plate and take a swing or two. And how can Missy win and still be mired in 8th? Strange times. ---

So I slid a little in the standings, but I’ve gone from $.29 to 17.76 since I started playing again. Actually I was down to .19 after finishing 4th my first week, so I’m pretty happy about that… I’ll be sure and not enter the freeroll next Thursday, I can barely keep track of one game, much less 2 and chat. I don’t see how those guys can play 5 games at once. ---

83rd tonight, $1. It’s damn sad to be begging for dollars in free-for-all-rolls since it’s fucking immoral for me to put $20 in a poker account. Party on, dudes. (And dudettes- Hi Missy and your 1st place self! 😃 ) ---

I’m far from saying I’ve figured out the chaos of the freeroll, but I can almost hang in there. I’ll take the money, but I’d feel better if I thought the competition was better than a crap shoot. I guess playing extreme mf’rs on a regular basis would sure salt your hide. If I ever do 3/5 in a week, I’m going Pro 😛😃 ---

I’m getting some payouts as well in Hold’em and in 7cs, and then I parlayed that into 4.50 by winning a .90+$.10 Turbo SnG. Either you guys are making me a better player to beat these donks, or they are dumbing me down so I can get the crap kicked out of me in our weekly game. ---

I told Missy I’d post my Freezeout results… Didn’t get to fuck 'em all, but got 2nd for $20. That doubled my stack in one tourney. ---

Good going **Duck**! Missed last night’s game due to “Back to School” night for my little guy. Congrats **Missy**! I think our little clan here is on the verge of taking over the pokker internets!
