Short June Poker Update

Didn’t get to play for a week, because we were down at Zope, and then had a wedding over the weekend. Got back to NY yesterday, and got to play a little last night. Played in my usual $22 Omaha Hi-Lo tourney. 104 entrants, paid to 20th. I finished 21st. Bummer… This afternoon, I got [...]

A Great Father, for sure, but also a Great Man!

Many people think their father is a great father, and for the most part, that’s a good enough definition for me. Meaning, if you think your father is a great father, it doesn’t matter how you measure that, and whether there is a relative difference in my definition or yours. In other words, it’s a [...]

June Poker Roll Continues, with a Twist :-)

So, I last posted on June 4th, and things were going swimmingly. I played a bit on the 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th and 10th as well. On all but the 10th, I lost. This was predicted. I lost every single Omaha Hi-Lo game I entered on those days (not including the 10th). I came 3rd [...]

June Poker Roll Continues :-)

OK, like I said, I can’t resist sharing while the good times are rolling. I started the day with a $1 (OK, those are really $1.10, but I’ve been rounding in my previous reports) Omaha Hi-Lo. I play those for fun, since even first place is under $100. Prizes are just as good percentage-wise, just [...]

More Early June Poker Success :-)

This one is very long, so if Poker stories aren’t of interest to you, quit now! I can feel myself getting sucked in to more “frequent” poker updates, oh oh… I think it’s only because I’m in NY for a decent stretch, and finding a little more playing time than when we’re at Zope. One [...]

Early June Poker Success :-)

OK, I really can’t wait until the end of the month to write this report. Not so much because I want to brag, but more because I have every expectation that I will lose it back, and the drama won’t be there when all is said and done. So, June has only had two days [...]
