Bleh, blogs about work are cool until HR reads them.

Sam ****in Stein.

He's my new hero. How often do you hear some donk issue a heads-up challenge that actually gets accepted?

"I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL!"

"I accept."

"Uhhh....."

Sam, which sunday tournaments do you play?

Why do people suck at reading so much. Sam wasn't playing in the 1/2 game, and wasn't the one who was issued the challenge. He happened upon the heads up game by chance and sat in it.

Sigh.

this is why i love 2+2 ...sick OP sick

OP has like 237k in live cashes in 2009..if im googling the right person http://www.bluffmagazine.com/players...er-profile.asp

OP doesn't mean what you think it means...

Yeesh, simple mistake. Lighten up.

He has more. He had back to back WPT final tables (9th, then 5th) and only turned 21 this year!

He's also a former MTG grinder and was rated #1 for a period of time.

LOL, gobbo lovesssss bragging about me. In case it isn't clear, I was playing a completely different 1/2 game with some friends. The only other 1/2 game broke and after players filtered into our game I noticed 2 guys playing heads up about 30 minutes later. When I saw that heads up game I had noooo clue how either person played. They were in the other 1/2 game and there was no talk about how crazy it was. From the dealer though I heard that the worse of the 2 players had lost something like $3,000 in a capped 1/2 game of $300. He couldn't sit with enough money to have a chance at winning his money back so he issued the challenge. They started to play and I had no clue why they were playing, I figured maybe they are both just higher stakes players from out of town and I asked the floor if they were cool with me joining. They seemed kind of indifferent so I thought I would play for about 30 minutes and if they didn't enjoy me being there I would just leave. It just so happened that the worse of the 2 players had already dumped about $6,500 during that time and basically told me I was glued to my seat. I, of course, was not too bothered by this although if I wanted to leave, then I would just leave. The rest of the story can be found in my other post.

Centerright, I play all the highest buy-in tournaments they run on Sunday, the smallest buy-in tourney that I play is the $150+13 freezeout on tilt.

in less than 9 hours over 2 nights (this past thurs and fri) i won $5,000 in the bellagio 1-2 $200 max game.

Pretty sick brag, mikech. I'm surprised you were playing so low. Guess you got bored and went slumming

if sam ****in stein can play 1-2, then it's not beneath me either.

As long as you are drinking then nothing wrong with playing some 1-2

I am awestruck.

Oh to be 22 again.

Hat's off to you, kid. Nice win.
