Somebody cancelled their Like because now only 3 are showing.

The one guy Larry has been Liking my pro-poker posts, so I messaged him with a heads-up. The other two I am not sure if they are pro-poker folks or not.

EDIT: done with today's action plan

I Facebook messaged three of them. The fourth did not permit incoming messages or allow friend requests.

Done.

Any of you who want to be counted in the giveaway contest in STT, let TruFloridaGator know that you've been doing the action plans so he can count you in. I know several people who have been working on this daily but are not accounted for in the STT thread. It's a sticky at the top of their forum.

And then it was tucked away into the zoo chat thread so nobody else will see it either. Oh well.

Pete Zinn is an idiot. Perhaps someone can try and find that article that talked about not only all the extra poker revenue the twentysomething online pros brought into the casino economy, but all the other money they spent on food, drinks, clubin', and perhaps most importantly, gambling!
