I’m heartened to see I got a few comments on my last post.  Thanks to all who left comments or read my post, I’ll address the questions raised at some point (even the hooker one, even though I’ve never knowingly patronized one so I guess my opinion isn’t worth a whole lot in that regard).  [...]

I’m not quite sure what it is exactly – maybe it’s the changing of seasons (winter is the best), maybe it’s the fact the super-draining WCOOP is finally in the rear-view mirror, maybe it’s the fact I’m actually training again and eating better than I have in a long time (more fish and plain chicken [...]

I’ve spent the past few weeks in kind of an odd cycle; for me, that means something, considering my definitions of “normal”. I’ve been feeling kind of strange, sleeping consistently oddly short durations, and ontop of all this I’ve had some weird computer issues come up lately.
I’ve been having computer problems for a few [...]

There was a chop, and the two played for $100k and the bracelet.

All this poker talk bores me and anyone who reads this blog regularly knew it wouldn’t last forever.  as promised, it’s time for yet another issue of the tuesday taknapotin television treatise.

Starting off this post with a non-poker yet somehow serious topic, it seems to me that the under reported story of the week is the publication of the International Committee of the Red Cross’ report on torture/abuse during the Bush administration.  Apparently, the ICRC wrote a report, meant to be privately sent to the CIA, [...]

Although I certainly want to continue where I left off in my last entry, my intentions at the inception of this post are to be (relatively) brief and focused in a different direction than pondering the different vagaries of teaching, learning, and motivation.  I received pretty strong and diverse types of private feedback regarding my [...]

Just because jealousy and immaturity forces me to steal the spotlight from my BFF JCarver, I feel compelled to write a blog post.  Don’t expect much from this, it’s more a preview of what’s to come soon, when I devote a bit more time to writing down my thoughts on here.
If this were a Bad [...]

I haven’t really done too much since the FTOPS contest ended.  I played the 1K on Monday, busting 13th or something, and I played a full night on Wednesday, only cashing in the 100r.  I feel my tournament game is super strong these days and I’m playing better than I ever have before.  There’s a [...]

The quarterly alarm bell known as FTOPS begins tonight.  I don’t think I did anything last series, but the series prior to that one was a little special in that I teamed up with Kevin “BelowAbove” Saul and MattG in a sidebet contest.  Mostly thanks to Kevin, our team won something like $40k-50k for having [...]
