I won my way into a really pricey online tournament today. Fingers crossed! It took me a while to get used to online. I grew up in the day of backroom down the river (usually 2-4)--and a bunch of wild games. There was no "hold-em"! And sometimes games could be dangerous--both at the table or out the door.. Online is not dangerous. But you have no physical presence so you have to take notes and update them all the time! And you don't need to wear sun glasses! You don't need to wear anything. Ha! All that sunglasses and camouflage is a modern affectation. Real poker players judge most of your behaviour by your bet and how you bet it. The bluffer is the biggest loser in poker. He is spotted instantly and it is only a question of who will get his money! :-) Right now, playing in 2 tourneys so will close my SI window...

I wonder where JL Allen is? I have stopped calling him, TROLL boy--since he agreed to meet with me in Vegas? That was the first time I felt any respect for him. Claiming to be a lawyer and posting childish insults 24/7 just did not compute! But agreeing to meet like a man boosted him up a level in my regard. Maybe you want to come down for the meeting. You’re in Cali—right? I am getting my family together because I have a time-share on the west side. Might have room for you.? Or I can get you a deal! Might cost you a steak dinner for ten! No big deal! My resort is 5 STAR!! You are Waaaaaay ahead of the game! TRUST ME! You can PM! I lost. An Idiot got lucky. From top ten to out. That is how it goes. Dodging the bullets of the idiots are the thing. Sometimes those idiots get lucky. They NEVER finish in the money. They are destructive wild cards. But today they have won...
