This Is How We Do

Non-Poker Content:

Right now, I'm typing on my sister's computer listening to her itunes. What song am I listening to? "This is How We Do" by The Game and 50 Cent. Those of you that know me realize how ridiculous this is. Luckily, it is the "clean" version, so my virgin ears aren't hearing the f-bomb every other word. I just can't understand how people can listen to this all day long. Don't get me wrong, I can roll with the best of 'em, especially my G Unit crew, but come on.

Now Lindsay Lohan is playing ("Rumors", for those of you that are wondering). My sister's taste in music is seriously questionable. I feel like I'm a 12 year old girl listening to this. She reminds me a lot of that Spears girl, and by that I mean, both of them have their voices SERIOUSLY altered with digital effects.

"Why can't they back up off me?" Lindsay Lohan. Brilliant

Now "Switch" by Will Smith. At least I can handle The Fresh Prince, because "Parents Just Don't Understand." You kids out there, and by kids, I mean those of you under 20, won't get that one because you were 2 when that came out. I'm actually "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" while typing. Seriously, I'm actually doing a mini-dance whilst typing. Again, those of you that know me will realize that this is common thing for me, as I have been known to be "That guy" on the dance floor. As in, "Holy S%$t, do you see "that guy" over there on the dance floor? He really can dance. I bet he's great in bed." I believe that the previous statements were said/thought every time I've gone out on the dance floor.

"I like the way you wobbity, wobbity, willie, wiggle" That was written by the Ying Yang Twins. Damn, I wish I could write that type of prose. Brilliant. Just plain brilliant.

Poker Content:

I officially started playing poker again a few days ago. I started out with the Crypto bonuses; at least the ones that still pay you 5 pounds per hour for 5 hours (UKbetting and Will Hill). Will Hill treated me very nicely, as I managed a $125 profit, including the $44 of bonus. Not too shabby.

UKbetting, on the other hand, was not so kind. I played there for about an hour on 2 tables, and I got thrashed. I lost $66 in that time, which is pretty hefty at the $1/$2 tables. But, I thought, "At least I cleared a couple units of bonuses, so that will only make it a net loss of about $50." Hold on there partner, UKbetting changed there bonus payout requirements. Bastages. At least Totalbet had the courtesy of emailing everyone about it. So there I was, down $66 with nothing to show for it. Damit Jim!

So, I did the unthinkable, I re-deposited into Interpoker for another few rounds with Mike Tyson. I realize that this site hasn't exactly treated me fairly, but I'm gonna try it, as my favorite bonuses aren't exactly coming up roses. I wish that Paradise or Poker Stars would have a reload bonus sometime soon. And Full Contact is a great site, but I got my buttocks handed to me in a little gift box. Which wasn't cool, because imagine my surprise when I was expecting something "shiny" in that little gift box. You know, like some BLING-BLING! But no, it was my posterior. Not cool.

Sorry about the tangent there, but again, those of you that know me will realize that I never, go on tangents.

Keep on keepin' on.

P.S. Yesterday, I had my first relief job in the DFW metroplex, and today is going to be the first time I've worked on a Sunday. It's from 12-5, so it's going to be rough on a brotha. But, when I get paid a full days pay for working 5 hours on a Saturday or Sunday, you gotta take it and smile.
