Damn I feel your pain!!! Wow, Lee Childs huh? That's great, I noticed that you saw I'd made a post or two over on our 600 poker group on myspace, so I'll keep doing so.
We even have another member, I'm guessing is a friend of yours?? Great, there is life in them there groups after all.
I can't wait to come over to the states, hopefully I'll get to watch you play a tourny while I'm there, that would be a real hoot! I have a friend in Charlotte that I'm guessing isn't that far from you, well I know he's near Atlantic city too, so I'll be staying with him for a fair while. He is a friend of mine from the Armny that I met in Korea 20 years agon now. His youngest daughter is named Adelaide as a kudos to all us dancers he knew from there then.
Anyway, will give you all heaps of notice when I am going to come over, so that you can make suggestions of good cheap places I can stay around your areas. I totally understand that opening you personal houses to what adds up to pretty much a stranger is not realistic or fair even to expect. I'll take Morgan up though, on her offer. I can't wait to get to see New York through the eyes of a local like that. It's always the best way to experience a city, with a local that is.
ANyhoo off track AGAIN, congrats about your success, sorry the cards didn't land your way to land you on that last table. I'm sure we'll seee you on world poker tour before we know it.
Zeph

I added Lee Childs as a friend. I don't think that is the member you are refering to. I will invite him to the group. I am going to make a post in a few, once I check the rest of the site. When you read it, you may see that you might be close to seeing me on the WPT or WSOP, or elsewhere.
Charlotte, depending on which one, is near me. I am 4 hours from Atlantic City. Maybe 5 from NY. Yes, I look forward to trying to work out some kind of vis a vis meeting. I'll pm you since I don't want to get all personal here.
Well the cards did mostly do what they were supposed to for me. I never got in bad with crappy hands. I never felt the pressure to play something like 82 offsuit. Laying down JJ was hard, but the information I was getting from my opponent told me I was making the right decision. It didn't hurt me much, but we would have chopped the pot had I stuck with it. My AQ suited all in call was the right move. Unless he had AA or AK, I was statistically ahead of him. I read on the website the final 13 players split the winnings. Bullshit. They would have sat their asses there and played me until I either busted out or won it. I don't settle for a 13 way tie.
Yes Woland, it's a myspace thing. Matter of fact, I don't think we have added each other. Hit me if you want to be added. It's rather boring lol.

That's not poker... especially tournament poker!!! If they aren't out to win, they should have been playing tiddly winks.
As Classy Freddy Vlassy would have said... "Ham'n'eggers!"
