Impressions of Absolute Dominance, and poor impressions at that...
One day after chump-bubbling The Mookie (10th/57), I won The Not. Only 15 people played, but it is my first MTT win to speak of. So that’s sort of cool.
I almost didn’t play the thing. As usual, D gets the nod for timely good advice.
I got heads up against a guy that I hold in very high esteem. Wes is the motherfuckin’ man and he’s funny as hell. How funny? Tough_Fish – ‘nuff said.
Fortunately, I tend to get very, very lucky against him, and this is the third blogger tourney I have busted him out of. He also puts up with my compulsive need to serially comment in his blog, which I do appreciate, and hereby promise to curb.
Wes went on an unbelievable run after having his aces cracked by my mighty T6h. He was down to less then a thousand chips, but gave no signs of tilting. One hand after another, he Hoy’d and Hoy’d me till he was back up to just a 4:1 deficit. Incidentally, he is the only other blogger I know who talks shit while he Hoys, and who checks down his Hoy’s like a man. Full style points, brotha.
I began to freak out a little for a bit, but caught some good looking A’s and paint then survived my own mis-fired Hoy. Good stuff. Thanks to all our crew who railed us both: the chat was hilarious, and it was fun to not be green text for a change.
In honor of Wes I tried to keep this short, but even then it’s like a month of posts on Retards. I tried. Speaking of running on, if you survived Part One of my Vegas Soliloquy, Part Two is found below this. Like I said, it may be a while before I'm back at it, so hope you enjoy it and have a great weekend.
Lay-tah.

Sumbitch. Congratulations. I don't care if it's a six-person SNG and all of the participants get their daily dose from Nurse Ratchet. A win is a win is a win. Way to represent, homes.
You played great last night... also good for me to find out where your limits were for the future!
Note to self: need bigger than Q8o to reraise Iak. Waffles or MiamiDon it is more than enough!
Any cash in a blogger tournament is a significant accomplishment, a win is obviously a gazillion times better. Well done!
Congrats man!!!
And thanks for calling down my repeated bluffs with top pair 6's on the flop. Bastard!
Congrats...a well-deserved win. Until next time...
PJ: Andrew's tourney/homegame sound great. Consider me in.
Guin: brotha you gave me all kinds of headaches last night, Canada represented last night!
l'artiste & JJ: tx, brothas
slb: I was prolly just recovering from you stackin me the night before! btw, glad you liked my novel of a post, tx for saying so.
Congrats on the win, nice job.
looks like ur master at knocking people nice job
We already know it is practically impossible for a blogger to post fewer words than I in a post.
Oh yeah, congrats on the victory.
Congratulations hottie!!!! Too bad I had to work - I didn't get to rail ya!
Great job SM. It was fun to watch. Congrats.
Suh-weet. Rock it Iak. I hope to be back at the tables again luckboxing your bankroll into my bankroll...
...and you better believe, I do it all for Mel...
Congrats on the win
I agree, a win is a win is a win.
Congrats!
Nice work Iak. I really need to get back into the Not tournament. For whatever reason the last several Thursdays I have not been able to get online, or have not been on at 10:30pm when the Not begins. But a great win nonetheless.
Just look at our boy and his 15 comments already. This blog is really taking off man. Always a fantastic read.
Nice going. Just catching up from being away from a computer for a week. A very sweet thing.
Sounds like Vegas was a good ride. I'll make it next year. Promise.
P.S., where do you want your milk money sent? I thin I can transfer it in Poker Stars.
Is it wrong that I have the hots for Bone Daddy?
To one and all, many thanks. In a related tale of heroic idiocy, I tried to parlay that victory into a shot at a stars ME seat. Not so good. Got my ahead on two big hands, no love either time. Details to follow once I stop heckling myself.
Oh and Donnie, we all have the hots for Eric.
Your are Excellent. And so is your site! Keep up the good work. Bookmarked.
