No, I didn't mean to repeat my worthless comments twice. If someone can delete the second message, I'd be grateful.

Unless, people have no objection to me looking like an idiot, then leave it there.

700 is pretty conservative, but man is it scary when you get down. I usually cash out all but 150-200BB. This most recent time I did so and hit a super bad downswing / playbadswing. Had to drop down. Still down there since BR is stagnating due to lack of play time b/c of work. Clawing my way back, but I'm going to leave some more chippies in the next time I cash out, assuming of course the UIGEA police don't kick down my door and take me away to some secret poker prison the next time I withdraw two hundred dollars.

this is gonna sound pretty bad but does anybody have any advice on how to play large field lhe tournaments? i've heard some advice but any more from people who know what's going on would be helpful.

Tournament starts at 5pm, and is scheduled for eight (8) one hour levels, a one hour break and two twenty minute breaks. That's a 2:40am finish if I'm still in aiyah.

1. I am a daddy. Baby Callipygian was born on June 2nd. Pics sometime when I have an adapter to connect my camera to the computer.

2. Nerdy look + healthcare-related T-shirt + extreme familiarity with the cafeteria = employee discount lolwat

Pretty bad? All you've gotta say is "pretty bad?"

The following is "pretty bad."

Doc goes into his patient's room and asks him what's wrong. Dude says he's been losin' weight, havin' belly pain and is nauseated all the time. Doc examines him, says he needs to get some blood tests, a CT scan and will be back to chat with him.

Blood tests and CT are done and doc returns. Doc says, "Well, I've got good news and bad news."

Dude says, "Gimme the bad news first."

Doc says, "Looks like you've got liver cancer and you're gonna die in two months."

Dude says, "Jesus Christ, doc, what could be good news after that?"

Doc says, "You remember that really hot, 22 year-old blond receptionist with big tits that checked you in?"

"Yeah, sure."

Doc says, "Well... I'm ****in' her."

Just tell me it ain't that bad.

like my mom used to say: 1st place is the only place to place. anyone who doesn't place first, which should be everyone but you, is a loser.

ok, my mom never said that. it was my dad.

Sounds like my first "big buy-in ($200)

" tourney at Wildhorse Casino, Pendleton, OR. Few playable hands, didn't rake a pot, got in and busted out with a medium pear.
