Playoff Time Baby

The NFL Playoffs start today and My New England Patriots Start
thier run at 3 Consecutive Superbowls.

Tonights game should be the easiest of the 4 they will have to win.
but they should prevail in the end.

pats 28
Jaguars 20

Maybe after they win the superbowl they will get the proper respect.

Nominate The Tao of Poker for Best Blog of the Year

I saw this and thought it was worth reposting from Lady Falcons blog.
Pauly has some great writing and deserves to get some support.

Nominate The Tao of Poker for Best Blog of the Year

Hey everyone,

Nominations for the 2006 blog awards are due on Thursday, January 12, 2006. I vote that we all nominate Pauly's blog "The Tao of Poker" for Best American Blog, Best Entertainment Blog, Best Writing in a Blog, and Best Weblog of the Year. The site you need to pull up to get the nomination form is 2006.bloggies.com.

I've been trying to leave messages on others' blogs today -- but I am having difficulties accessing the comments section (some "haloscan" message) of many of the larger blogs (like AlCantHang, Poker Perspectives, Trip Jax, and the Tao of Poker). Must have caught some type of virus from all the fart porn research I've been doing lately....

Anyway, I ask you all to do two things:

1. Go to 2006.bloggies.com and nominate the shit out of Pauly's Tao of Poker Blog. Do this by Tuesday, Jan. 12...the deadline!!!

2. Leave a message on 2-3 other blogs with this same message. If even a few of us do this, eventually our message will reach a wide enough audience that we can get enough votes to make Pauly a real contender.

Thanks so much,

Lady F

The Making Of A Poker Player

I just finished reading "The Making Of A Poker Player" by Matt Matros. not overly long with only 286 pages this book is an easy and fun read.
It's geared more towards the beginner but has little tidbits worth the time. I liked when he talked about his big run in the Wpt tourney.

decent read but not a must read.

Keeping track

I have never been one to keep good records.
But I am going to try this year.

So I can see How I am progressing.
I hope it doesn't get to depressing to see my meager progress.

as of right now I am (144.63) playing ring games for 2006.
I took a brutal beating on Bet365 which accounts for that entire loss.
this doesn't include any boni that i recieved.v
I am + 86.43 for tourneys.

which leaves me at (58.20) down for the year.

I will finish the update soon.

peace

Happy New Year!!!!

Happy New Year


Wow I have been getting crushed on bet365 lately. Those crazy euros
have been crushing me. I am -400 in the last 2 weeks on bet365
ouch. I even dropped down from 3-6 to 1-2 and still the beats come.
It's a good thing that I was up +500 on bet365 or i would be sucking it badly.

ohh well this is the negative side of variance i guess.

My game is ok just seem to be taking it on the chin. from people who
do not mind chasing down to the river with bottom pair. only to catch
one of thier 2 outs.

My Youngest daughter ( I have 2) just turned 5, man how time flies.

Peace and HappyNew Year.
