Yes, I'm really back

Test, Test, Test, Testing one, two, three, four. Testing, Testing Test.

Seems like it still works.

Peer Pressure has finally gotten to me, that and I'm back into joining the real world.

Not so much poker(some), but all sorts of other things. Stay tuned.

While I miss Vegas I'm very happy to be back in Florida.

Channelling all Hemingway can give me from the Keys! Hope it works.

Oh and to celebrate the "stinking" Phish tour, I haven't showered in four days. Somehow my dog loves me even more than before which I thought was impossible. Although the Atlantic oceans makes my getting longer hair awesome!

Grats to all the bloggers who went deep, deep, deep. Seems as the race is on to win a bracelet. I'll take Waffles at infinitely to one. Anybody giving action?

I got a lot of visitors in Vegas, I hope I get some in South Florida.

Peace out Freaks.

The Sun is Shining

The U.S. Travel Association is fighting back according to this article. Good for them. STOP Business Event Bashing Now.

Own a house in Vegas? We haven't even begun to see how bad the crisis will reach. 58.2% upside down on their mortgages?

How is the market today? Are we below 6000 yet?

Any team that signs that T.O. won't win. He'll become disgruntled and ruin that teams chemistry. Better hope he's not wearing your teams colors. I hope he goes to Denver so him and Marshall can cry or fight weekly.

Way to go Bone Daddy on winning the Mookie.

Hope everyone is having a good day.

No I'm Not Angry

Here is what is wrong as I see it.

First and foremost, anyone who voted for the current President needs to go on record as they did indeed vote for him. I remember meeting people and once the conversation came up that I voted for Bush TWICE, they for the most part called me a racist, a fascist, anti-humanity, and worst of all a hater.

To those that did vote I say, it's unfortunate that you fell for the con, and sorry that you contributed to the falling of what was once the Greatest Country on Earth.

How many that voted owned homes, that they could afford, which have lost 50% of their value and soon to be will not be able to write off their interest payments on their taxes?

Why does the government, which has proven over 200 years, get to try to run big business with their bailouts, when they can't even operate themselves?

Why is it an suddenly an embarrassment to have a successful business, whether big or small, and have to justify why one may own a huge house and drive fancy cars since they worked hard and were fortunate enough to reap the benefits of that hard work.

Why is it that there is no more dodge ball in elementary school so those that are not athletic are exposed as being non-athletic? And why are there still Math Contests and Spelling Bees that show why the kids who get killed in dodge ball can explain the Pythagorean Theorem.

Why does anyone who is on the team get a participation trophy and why if they suck my only ball, are they even allowed to play a certain amount of innings/quarters/periods?

Why is it that this "Leader" can bash the use of Private Jets or trips to Las Vegas for Conventions or the Super Bowl for a incentive to be better?

Let's see if a CEO, who makes a ton of money on incentives, which runs a successful company that doesn't need a socialist government bailout, which employee's 12,545 people, most of who aren't really valuable, and wants to fly that charter jet, which means the pilots who fly that private jet, the engineers who designed the private jet, those skilled management people who oversee the people who assemble that such intricate private jet, those who manufacture the parts who help build that private jet and the real estate that the private jet lands and takes off from, oh and the people who constructed the airport and all the buildings/runways which less not forget the people who communicate with that private jet to make sure it takes off from and lands in multiple locations, shit, and the people who designed the software/radar/weather systems/ that keeps that private plane flying an not causing major catastrophes whether it be in the air or on the ground.

Where do all those people go?

Or when this Socialist leader says that the companies that the government bailouts, whether they need it or not, can not offer incentive trips to sales people or that they can't hold conferences in Las Vegas. Instead they go to other cites such as San Francisco, where air fares are higher, hotel rooms are higher, transportation is higher, food costs are higher, shit even the adult entertainment is higher. Never mind, the cab drivers, or the house keepers, or airport personal, or the front desk people, or those dealing craps or poker, or the waiters or waitresses in the restaurants, or the shoe shiners, or the ticket takers for the shows, or on and on and on and on and on and on and on it goes.

Bottom line is you people have been fleeced. You may not see it now but you will soon enough. Any of you people other than Pauly been to Europe, or Asia, or Africa, or South America lately? Seriously? Shit doesn't work there does is?

Best job on the globe is to traffic drugs or get major weapons and hijack ships since all the pussy governments won't do shit about it. That or sit around with no motivation and drink vodka all day and bitch about bad beats. Oh wait, that's whats I do.

You want my taxes, which no law requires me to pay, fuck off. If the rest were smart they wouldn't give a dime. That is the revolution and quite frankly, although most of you still buy in, is the peaceful solution.

How many dollars do you pay in taxes to be represented so worthlessly?

Good luck to all of you.

Big Game is Back

As Al mentioned last week the BBT4 kicks off in March and it will start this Sunday with the Big Game.

I tried to get 3000 starting chips, 12 minute levels, blinds beginning at 10/20, which based on past history made for more play, but instead they gave us 5000 starting, 10 miunte levels, blinds beginning at 15/30. This is still a decent structure so with big enough fields we should still get plenty of play.

There are three big games during the BBT4 and to mix things up just a bit, the first and last events are the Super Stacks, and the middle event is a $24+2 (1r +1a). Now this is a slightly different variation to the ones regularly schedulded on FTP so hopefully this will still work out.

For $26 or a Tier I token players start with 1500 chips. Players may rebuy 1 time within the first two levels for $24 (1500 chips), then choose whether they want to do a one time add-on for $24(2000 chips).

Those that play these normally on FTP know you can add-on anytime in the first hour not just the first two levels. Again hopefully it works.

As usual, I thought my idea of 3000 starting chip MTTs with 12 minute levels, then a 1r +1a with 2000 + 2000 + 2500 chips would make for fantastic deep stack structures, FTP opted for faster quicker tourneys, perhaps not realizing the dollar amount of prizes to be given away. Regardless, I tried, although we are indeed playing for big time money once again this year so thanks to FTP and Al for putting this all together.

Here is the Big Game incase anyone wants to sign up early.

Tournament #81289088 (03/01/09) - NLH Super Stack
Tournament #81289230 (04/19/09) - NLH Rebuy
Tournament #81289279 (05/31/09) - NLH Super Stack

Password to all is donkey

Good Luck to all and like a big dysfunctional family, which we truly are, even though we may have our differences and a few fights and altercations along the way to glory, may we still love each other in the end.

Tony Dungy

Tony Dungy,one of the best human beings on the planet, although a horrible father.

Tony Dungy, one of the most overrated head coaches in NFL history.

If Tony was not such a right wing, conservative Christian, black man, he would have been run out of town as a coach...wait he was run out of Tampa and the next coach won with that talent.

He did win a Super Bowl with Indy, totally riding Peyton Manning and Bob Sanders jock straps, and a fixed Super Bowl, but he did ruin seven (7) decent teams.

Tony Dungy will go to the Hall of Fame due to his right wing beliefs and his half blackness.

As a coach, he was terrible.

I hope he helps young men better than he was a coach.
