Scattershooting…

While wondering whatever happened to Hank Dudek.

-Sign that you are a bad player:  You say, “I hate AK.”  or “I hate suited connectors.”  or “I hate Jacks.”  You hate them because you don’t play them well.   And, furthermore, it’s a good sign that you don’t play any hand well.   While I enjoy having you at my table, it would be better for you to hate being a suckass and quit the game.

-I’m kinda working on a post about the evolution of my game, or de-evolution into being a nit.   I doubt, however, that the post will ever get done, so I’ll just mention that I spend most of my time at the table folding and wondering how I’m down $xx to these morons, only to take a stack and then leave.

-I still look at one card at a time.   I started doing this awhile back, and haven’t broken myself of the habit yet.   Not surprisingly, the second card doesn’t pair the first as often as I expect it to.

-Some people really do want to lose their money.   Sometimes it is more obvious than others, but there’s almost always someone at the table looking for a chance to give their money away.

-It was brought to my attention today that my blog has been a disappointment, so please feel free to let me know what else you’d like to read about.

Later.

    I havent kept up with the blog as much as I’d normally would like to. I am hit and miss when it comes to internet trolling. Iam behind on various poker podcasts that I may or may not ever catch up on.

    Needless to say…I did ponder a question in this blog entry that you didnt respond to, probably because you didnt notice I posted a response since it was way scrolled off down the screen by the time I got to it.

    Yeah, I might have missed that one, although I definitely read the comments. I’ll start to keep a list of table talk, and turn it into a post at some point.

    once every 16 times is just being greedy

    Your blog has most certainly not been a disappointment…other than the college football rankings, but hey, whatever.
