First thing’s first - give credit where credit is due.
Hoyt Corkins is a pretty old school dude. Has a reputation to be a big spew monkey, wears a cowboy hat, and sucks on a cigar the whole tourny - very clean cut dude.
TJ (or TeeJay) i a short dude with a loud laugh who likes to party. He played the $10k LHE even in a very bright pink sweatshirt.
He was the reason Hoyt was steaming. Hoyt c/r’d him in a KQTcc board, TJ called. The board runs double paired and Hoyt bets, TJ raises, Hoyt hums and hahs and folds what I’m pretty sure what 8c3c, TJ rolls over 55 and Hoyt kept telling me how he “can’t call!” Thereafter Hoyt went on to spew vs. me and get there once, twice, three times a lady. I don’t know why I’m reliving this.
Had my biggest day of ‘08 yesterday (ship ship).
Oh something I also really wanted to get out there - DeathDonkey cheats at gin. He is a gin cheater.
Wors JW post ever but I’m tired I’ll be back later.
Ice something said that in Anaconda. A fantastic tale of large snakes out in the middle of nowhere. I guess they were hunting for treasure or something, which in the end was protected by cgi snakes. Never seen one of those in real life.
Anyway, now that I am in the town of internet I’ll be blogging a lot more regularly. To catch you up on the past weeks since my last post:
- The 10k LHE was brutal. I came into day 2 with a bunch of chips, well not really. Then I won a bunch of chips. They Hoyt “I am steaming because people are showing me bluff” Corkins took all my chips in 5 hands. IMO I played all of the hands perfectly.
- Um, $50k HORSE I was chip leader @ one point on day 1. Day 2 I wasn’t happy with some of my play in a few LHE pots but that didn’t really matter. I couldn’t win any stud hands of any sort. I actually ran pretty well and played good in O8. I reviewed every reasonably tough decision in my stud hands and it ends up I made a mistake or 2 but the best part is if I did make my loose peels in some spots I still would have bricked (results oriented FTW). Come to think of it is was just one hand.
- The Main Event sucked. I didn’t win any hands. Played good imo.
Now I’m out of Vegas. That’s about that.
And don’t worry, I won’t blog about poker.
