Funkadelic Poker

Date: Sat, Oct 20, 2007 Live Tournament

  I’ve been in a funk.  Maybe it’s good; I haven’t had a full blown funk in a long time.  I started this post a few days ago, but I realized that I was about to blunk drog.  The next day I made another attempt, but was again under the influence.  So now its almost 5:00am here in Austin.  I’ve been up [...]

Bellin Needed Brecher

Date: Sun, Oct 7, 2007 Live Tournament

  Working on my latest project, I decided to reread some of the poker non-fiction that I hadn’t read for many years, as well as read some books that had passed me by.  I was wondering if some of the older books that I had loved so much when I was first discovering poker would stand the test of [...]

Spamarama and Poker

Date: Fri, Oct 5, 2007 Live Tournament

  Until I had my blog, the mention of Spam was a welcome reference and was usually the harbinger of spring.  Austin has been home to Spamarama for over twenty-five years.  Billed as the “Potentate of Potted Pork Parties,” its hallmark has been the cook-off, which has featured such epicurial delights as the Spam Daiquiri, Jurrasic Pork, and the high [...]

Nowhere Normal, But it’s Home

Date: Tue, Oct 2, 2007 Live Tournament

  I was just about ready to hit “publish” on this post when I learned that Debbie Burkhead suffered a massive coronary.  This picture was taken at the 2007 WSOP.  The last I heard she was conscious and about to undergo heart surgery in Henderson.  Debbie’s just a great gal.  I know when I was looking to [...]

Grillin’, But Not Quite Chillin’

Date: Sun, Sep 23, 2007 Live Tournament

  I was going to put off posting yet another day, when Dr. Chako’s comment hit my reader.  I guess a day in Iraq without new poker blogs to read is just another day in Iraq; which after reading about Dr. Chako’s typical day, sounds like they all end the same way - with a sandy butt crack.  [...]

Not High Enough for Harrah’s

Date: Wed, Sep 12, 2007 Live Tournament

  L’Shana Tova.  Everywhere, except in a small pocket of London, Jews are preparing for Rosh Hashanah.  The High Holiday, signifying the New Year, is a day (well technically two days) of judgment and remembrance.  But for Jews playing in Harrah’s World Series of Poker in Europe, these holiest of days are just two more days of paying juice and grinding it out [...]

Swamped and Swampy

Date: Sat, Sep 8, 2007 Live Tournament

  Humidity continues be our constant companion here in Austin.  This has been one strange season; no 100 degree days and twice our annual rainfall in just the last couple of months.  Usually Houston gets the humidity while, Austin stays high and dry.  But this year, Hill Country is donning a soggy blanket, leaving me doing my [...]

Slacker: I Work For Flooring

Date: Wed, Aug 29, 2007 Live Tournament

  When I was making my decision, now 14 years ago, to move to Austin, I rented the movie Slacker.  I wasn’t ready to embrace a lifestyle that was sustained by selling Madonna’s pap smear or where an inordinate amount of time was spent in the conspiracy section of Half Price Books - but I was ready to [...]
