Sleep With the Fishes, Dine on the Whales

We are happy to help spread the word about the Acadiana Poker Series. It's a great cause. The tournaments promise plenty of play with starting stacks of $16,000 and rebuys of $8,000. Buy-in is just $100 and rebuys are but $50. You save the registration fee if you sign up online ($10). I'm curious as to what the blind schedule is. I imagine they won't be starting at $25 $25 but who knows. I'm looking forward to seeing a number of friends in Lafayette I haven't seen in a while. Should be fun.

I got engaged on saturday to this lovely girl. Who somehow accepted this wrecked grill as good enough. On sunday took 35th in World Championship for Poker Bloggers on Pokerstars. Really wanted to make top 10 to get the site's name out there. But I'll take the 80 gig iPod I won in the free roll.

I have registered to play in the PokerStars World Blogger Championship of Online Poker ! This Online Poker Tournament is a No Limit Texas Holdem event exclusive to Bloggers. Registration code: 1091710

Saw the impossible last night. An intelligent guys with a serviceable knowledge of poker, odds etc, but no idea of table sense lay waste to our table. He walked away with four racks of red (2k), 3 stacks of 25s, (1.5k) and almost the rest of the next rack with 5s. This was on a 1-2 table. I somehow was the only player who ended "up" against him. I pussied out on a board of AQQ7 (two clubs) with AK and didn't put my entire stack in. He would have called with his flush draw that didn't hit. I gave him too much credit for AQ or QQ. Still a big pot, but my winnings could have been $200 more. That being said, I saw him twice make $300 calls with one card to come on weak flush draws and hit. Saw literally three big stacks come to the table and as one guy put it "I got tired of watching you push this table around" so he bluffs off $600 with 8-4 o/suit and no pair while the villian has top pair. Literally, the dude couldn't lose. And people kept trying...

He's in first place in the 536 pool and a fan of the Turning Stone.

I'm taking Oakland to lose. I hate relying on a 2-3 team (San Diego) for a win but oh well. In other news I'm taking Baltimore to NOT cover as my Lock of the Week. Way too many points for a defensive team.
