Table Tango

This sucks. I have some great pics to put up and no way to get them here. I could load them on another server I carry, and link to them, but then I either have to move them to the PWorks server or leave them on my personal server forever for them to be viewed. I almost want to start loading them on my server - but then I have the feeling that as soon as I do, come Monday a.m., the programmer will tell me the issues have been resolved. Until then, I’m in a holding pattern. (more…)

First he did an article forthe PokerWorks Team- hopefully he will find time to do more - and tonight I received an email that welcomed two baby girls into his family. I went immediately to his blog, read his post, and cried like a little girl. There’s just something about the excitement of newborns, and relief of parents because the waiting is over, and anticipation of never getting a good night’s sleep again, and doing it double instead of single, and…and…and…anyway…I cried some joy tears. Love those babies! Congratulations to the team.

It’s damned seldom anymore that I would deal through any game and receive any grief from any player. There are a few dipshits that like to try to peg cards at dealer’s hands out of spite now and then, and a few super idiots that pitch their cards across the table because they aren’t winning and loudly demand, “Go away Jinx!” as they run out to suck down some cigarette smoke. Yeah, Emy, you know who you are! (more…)

I had some pictures to put up, and started a post that required pictures. Alas, programmer changes going on at PokerWorks and the image manager is on hiatus, or dead, or just flat out to lunch for eternity. The programmers are working on it, so I’m told. And incidentally, for those of you that don’t know, I have no control over that, it’s in someone else’s hands. So the picture posts have to wait. (more…)

My lunching pals met me at Macaroni Grill on Saturday.What a nice, fresh blast.It’s always a treat to take an hour or so out of a busy week and meet with them. We certianly never solve the problemsof the world, nor do we even try,but we get to touch bases and share a bit of our lives for a few moments before we slip back into the noisy, screaming insanity that mankind terms as daily living. L to R - Me, Carole, Gordon, Marie, and Viv:

and summer in Vegas, life is heating up again. I no longer have the continual aching kidney, high blood pressure, and a racing heart rate. I feel like a new person. How possible you are asking? Has a true miracle happened? Perhaps, perhaps not. Maybe it’s too soon to tell. After surviving Vytorin, Metoprolol, Benicar, and a few others things, I went back to the original prescription, hydrochlorothiazide, almost a week ago, (on the day I thought I was seriously going to die).

Hello $10-20 NLH, must move, and hello Mike. I’ve dealt to Mike before and to say he’s excitable and a real crowd pleaser would be an understatement. He does gamble. He does get vocal. He tips very well. And I don’t know anyone that plays poker with him that doesn’t like playing with him. (more…)
