He's Got Balls



As Annie and I were driving to San Antonio, we saw this masterpiece of modern engineering. What you see, is exactly what you think you see: A pair of testicles, complete with hair. I can only say that I'm thrilled that this guy is from the same state and I am. Needless to say, Annie way impressed, I mean, disturbed.

On a good note, we did have a great time, although our plans changed a little, due to an unforeseen purse-stealing event. Yep, Annie's purse got stolen out of her car, while it was in her garage, while she was loading it! We figured that the dude has all of about 1 minute to time the stealing of said purse without her seeing him. Dude's got balls though. (Are you impressed at how I managed to have "balls" again in this post? I thought so).

So after a 2.5 hour delay, we managed to get on the road, feeling a little emasculated from the purse snatching (3rd reference, for those of you out there that are keeping score).

We finally made it to her mom's house late that night. We were going to go to Sea World on Friday, but since the crazy cat stole Annie's purse, also managed to get a free pair of Sea World tickets, which happened to be in her wallet. You are very welcome.

It all worked out, because we were VERY tired on Friday, and we took our time getting to San Antonio. I even managed to buy a digital camera (I know, I finally entered the modern age) for 1/2 off at the outlet store. I'm so excited about it too.

I did want to buy some nipple covers at the Bali outlet store (where Annie was buying bras) but Annie would have none of that. I figured that they could come in handy, although I'm not exactly sure when they could have been used. Aren't they kind of like a pair of nipple chastity belts? Just a thought?

Annie was just a tad aggravated by my comment about them while she was being checked out. The girl behind the counter wasn't impressed either, so I went 1 for 3 on the attempted joke (I was, apparently, the only one that thought it was HILARIOUS). Hmmmmm.

So, we left the outlet mall, to get something to eat. Since it was too late for breakfast, I couldn't have any "juevos" (4th reference, for those of you keeping score). Bummer for me, and so we had some peanut M&M's instead, which Annie so wonderfully gave to me.


Well, I'd better get ready for tonight's festivities, or else Annie will have my family jewels in a jar (5th reference).

Ah, that was fun. Keep on keepin' on.

Yipeeeeeeee!

It's finally Thursday! I'm so pumped! Why are you so excited about a Thursday, Double D? Well, I'll tell ya.

Today, after work, Annie and I are going on a mini-vacation to San Antonio. I can't even remember the last time I had a vacation. Oh, wait, I do now, it was about 13 months ago. I think that I'm due.

We are going to stay at her mom's house tonight in Austin. Then we're gonna get up at the ass-crack of dawn to drive straight to Sea World to club some baby seals....um, I mean....watch the pretty sea mammals swim around. Awww, it will be sweet. We're gonna see the new Shamu show too.

I might even walk around the park with my shirt off, just to impress da ladies, I mean, get a tan on my WHITE skin. Or maybe not.

We are going to hang out with Big Judy and Triple D (Big Judy is a man, by the way. Triple D is his wife. She's named that for obvious reasons, just use your imagination.)on Saturday and Sunday, so that should be good times. We are gonna watch some live music on Saturday night, so I'm looking forward to that. Good ole live Texas music.

Keep on keepin' on.

Update on Crypto

Here's an update on my Crypto bonus-whoring for the month of July including their respective bonuses:

SunPoker: -$146
Totatbet: -$18
UKbetting: $206

For a grand total of: $42 in da black.

I'm gonna attribute the UKbetting goodness to a couple of things:
1) My luck started to turn
2) I started playing a lot of British money tables
3) I'm a motha-truckin pimp.

Keep on keepin' on

Annie's Friend


Here is a picture of Annie's friend, um..... Julie*. Julie is a HIGLY attractive 40something woman, with large, saggy boobs. Unfortunately, you can't see the sweet cameltoes in this picture, but Annie assured me that they were nice.

Annie called this chick a "stripper" because of her large, saggy, and unrestrained boobs. As a result, she almost got her booty kicked by her. But, thanks to her brave sisters, that didn't happen.

I truely hope that you enjoyed this. I know I didn't.

Keep on keepin' on.

* Names have been changed to protect their identity. "Julie" is a complete stranger and is NOT Annie's friend.

Hmmmmmmm.


In case you can't make out what this says, I'll translate:

"Sobriety is no accident. Please drink responsibly."

This was found at the bottom of the beer cups at the Rangers game last night. They even had special cups made for the Rangers/Yankees series. Dam Yankees. Bastages.

I woke up this morning to the distinctive odor of dog urine permeating the air. Just to let you know, it's not a pleasant smell.

So, I spent about 30 minutes cleaning that up, before I could even start to get ready. Fun way to start a day.

I just saw the dog that I have to do surgery on. WOW. It's here for a tumor removal. This tumor is about the size of a large grapefruit, and it's in the dog's armpit. Noting like a challenging surgery first thing in the morning.

That's all's I gots this morning. Keep on keepin' on.

What Do You Say About This


Apparently, Big R's older brother escaped from the mental hospital. Isn't he cute though?

Keep on keepin' on.

This Just In

In my line of work, a lot of crazy things happen. I had this story told to me by one of the techs here about a lady that I had just seen. Here goes.

She is a breeder. She loves to make the owner of this clinic blush by using words such as "twat", "bitch," and "hoo-hoo." As an aside, a lot of breeders like to use those words, at least in my experience. So one day she states that she is planning on breeding her Cocker Spaniel with her Maltese. And she will call the new combo breed:

Cock-teases.

Proceed to laugh your respective butts off.

So as of today, I am going to buy a Cocker Spaniel and a Maltese and get them to start humping away, because there's a market share out there waiting to be exploited. I can only imagine how many people there are out there that would love a new Cock-tease puppy.

"Awwwww. What a cute puppy you have. What breed is it?"

"It's a Cock-tease. Do you like her?"

Way too funny.

Keep on keepin' on.

P.S. I'm on a roll today. That's 2 good posts in one day. You are welcome again, Annie.

This Has Daisy Beat

My sweet Annie has a dog named Shelby. Shelby is a Golden/Ridgeback mix with a sweet mohawk/ridge down her back (It also could be called a racing stripe, which I really want to color it red to make it look like a racing stripe, but Annie isn't so keen on that idea. Grrrr.). Shelby also likes to chew on things (scissors, socks, water bottles, pillows, shoes, and what have you).

Last night, Annie and I were on the couch watching T.V., and minding our own business. Something grabbed our attention when we heard her chewing on something. Wait for it..........wait for it...................

She was eating Annie's panties.

Now, I'm not exactly sure if Daisy's licking carpet for a few seconds qualifies her as a lesbian or not, but this most definitely does qualify Shelby as one.

"Awwwww......Look at her, she's eating panties again. She sure does love 'em. What a nice lesbian dog. Good lesbo-dog. Now sit and lick the carpet. Awwwww.......How cute."

Now tell me that is not funny. Just tell me, because I think it's hilarious, and at the time, I couldn't stop laughing. Annie was not thrilled because they were brand new panties. And she just found out that her dog is a lesbian. I'd be upset too.*

And I wondered how I was single for so long. I'm such a catch.

Gasp, Poker Content:
I played some Totalbet and UKbetting this weekend, and I also finished the SunPoker bonus.

Net result (including the respective bonus):
SunPoker: -$146
Totalbet: -$18

Grand total: -$164 (I don't think that this is how bonus-whoring is supposed to go. But I am glad that I was playing with the bonus, because otherwise I'd be down another $145. Ouchy on the cho-cho.)

I have changed my strategy for playing these Crypto sites though. I'm gonna play a heck of a lot more of the English denomination tables though. Those Europeans are CRAZY!!!! You do have to strap on your Anti-Tilt Flack Jacket though, and keep it strapped pretty tight, because there are some horrendous suckouts there. But oh the tables sure are juicy. I did manage to have the same guy crack my Aces with T9os when he hit his open-ended on the river. Ouchy. I also have Aces cracked by Jacks when he hit his J on the turn. So, like I said the swings are pretty rough, but if you stick to your guns, it's not bad.

Hope this helps.

Keep on keepin' on.

* Again, you are very welcome Annie. I know how proud of me you are for broadcasting this story for the 3-4 people that read this to see.

On The Road Again

Like the great Willie Nelson song, I'm fixin' to be back on the road again. Or like the Robert Earl Keen song said, "I'm Coming Home." It'll be nice to sleep in my own bed again, as opposed to my former boss' bed. (Kinda ewwww, if you know the guy). I did manage to wash the sheets and dry the sheets this morning, since I was up with the cocks...um....roosters this morning. I love insomnia. I guess I'm just excited to get home.

I think that it was good, because I got a lot of packing/cleaning/washing/putting away the midgets/cleaning up spunk/kicking out all the strippers/hauling the donkey from the "donkey show" away, done this morning. (I'm not exactly sure how to make that last sentence correct grammar-wise and all, but you get the point). You know, the usual stuff.* Or is it just me that has to do that stuff?

Well kids, I'm off to start saving the world's puppies and kitties. Awwwwwww.

Take her sleazy, and if she's easy, send her Cameltoes' way.

Keep on keepin' on.

*It sure is hard to take down a stripper pole and repair the damage done to the ceiling in 45 minutes, but I dang sure did it. Annie, there were no midgets/donkeys/strippers at the house, just to let you know. Although, the thought of putting up a stripper pole in the house has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

Have You Met My Friend Cameltoes?


Yeah, this is a long lost picture of Sir Toes, a.k.a. Cameltoes. He's only a little gay, so you've got to cut him a little slack.

What exactly are you doing in this picture anyway?

Another Man Trying To Bring Me Down

I'm in the process of trying to finalize a 2 year battle over some bigtime B.S, involving "The Man." "The Man" can be anyone really, as long as they have some sort of power over you. In my case, "The Man" is trying to sell me down the river. Today, I sent off a final letter to try and correct such a matter, and to get justice in this mixed-up, crazy world. *fingers crossed*

A special thanks to Annie, Cameltoes, and Big R for your help in said matter involving "The Man." You made my letter not sound like it was written by a chimpanzee loaded on a phat 8-ball while doing a keg stand at the local frat house. Ah, memories. But I digress. Thanks a ton.

I'm really sick and tired of "The Man" trying to bring me down. It gets old, doesn't it?

One time for Halloween, my college roommate dressed up as "The Man." What did he wear/do to be "The Man" you ask?

He wore normal clothes. All he did was press down on people's shoulders. When they asked him what he was doing, and what he was dressed up as, he responded with this.

"I'm 'The Man' trying to bring you down."

I don't think that anyone thought it was funny other than me. It's not so funny when it happens for real though. Bastages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As an aside, Annie really liked my post about Daisy licking carpet. I'm impressed. That girl is really starting to turn around. Maybe someday she'll be able to call Cameltoes by his real name (which, of course is Cameltoes).

But she could also call him "Sir Toes," but that's a topic for another day.

Keep on keepin' on. And don't let "The Man" bring you down. Huh, someone should write a song about that.......Oh wait......I already did.

Peace out my brethren.

Funny Stuff

I just witnessed my dog, Daisy, licking carpet. I wonder if she feels like a lesbian??? Maybe only licking carpet for a few seconds doesn't constitute her as a lesbian. Heck, even Cartman didn't feel like a lesbian, and he licked carpet for 2 hours.*

Keep on keepin' on.

* You're welcome Annie.

Crazy Day

Yesterday was a train wreck. Seriously. Oh, the day started of well enough, but by when my cell phone rang around 9:00 A.M. and it said "Unknown Call," I figured it would be good. It was the constable, telling me that she couldn't serve the papers to that fine citizen that used to be my landlord because the address was a mail box. Yep, every address that I had ever seen from him was this address, that actually looks like it would be an apartment address, because it's written like this.

"123 Anystreet #123 Houston, TX"

You would think that it's an apartment, right? Naaaaaaaaah. It's a private mailbox address. Nice.

Long story short, I had a LOT of people trying to find out where this cat lives. We went through every imaginable spot to find him. Nearing 5:00 P.M., I was starting to give up, because I had been on the phone/internet ALL DAY trying to figure this out.

Then Big R called me. He sounded really happy when he said, "This dude really doesn't want to be found." I agreed, and he proceeded to explain how he found this guys address. It boiled down to being very creative, because I'm not gonna give out the details for all of the world to see (it was legal, just to let you know).

Anyway, we have his address, and the constable has his address and should hopefully be able to serve him this week. Now I just have to win the sucker. *fingers crossed*


I have 3 days left (counting today) and then I can FINALLY go home. I'm really ready to get back. Houston is cool, but I like Ft. Worth so much better (sorry Big R and Lil N). Although I hear a suburb of Houston sure is a nice place to raise a family. That's sweet.

Oh, I almost forgot, I also got hit on by a gay guy at work yesterday. A 40ish, overweight, short, gay guy. He was REALLY happy to have me help his dog. He gave me his card and told me he wanted me to email him. *SHUDDER, VOMIT, GAG*

Keep on keepin' on.

Blah, Blah

I think that I've lost any resemblance to humorous writing. Just look at the last posts here. Good grief. What's happened to me? I don't even have any funny stories from work, and that's really odd, because in my line of work, there are usually PLENTY of funny stories. I guess I could write about "bitches in heat," but I think that I've covered that subject adequately. Well.....maybe not.

I first started using the term "bitch" to describe female dogs back when I was a wee laddy. When I was a veterinary technician, one of the receptionists hated it, I mean hated it when people called their female dogs "bitches." The vast majority of the people that called them that were breeders.

So what is a guy like me to do? You use the term frequently.

Like this: Any time I would call the clinic, I would start off my conversation, when she would answer the phone, with, "Yeah, I got a bitch in heat."

Let me just say she loved it.

It's just one of the perks of the job.

Keep on keepin' on.

It's The End Of The World As We Know It

Public Service Announcement: Are you watching the news lately with the war with Israel? I'm just saying get ready because all hell is about to break loose. If you were to die today, would you be ready? It's coming. For more info click here.

There. Enough with the doom and gloom and on to happier things.

Annie is flying into H-town this evening for the weekend. I'm pretty excited about that. Tonight Big R, Lil N, Annie, and I are going to watch some live Texas music. Then, I'll have to get up and work the next morning. Saturday night, the four of us are going to cut a rug at one of my old hangouts. I'll write about it on a later blog.

I REOPENED MY NETELLER ACCOUNT!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I then quickly reloaded into Sun Poker for their $100 monthly bonus. I managed to clear 10% of it in a short amount of time. Look out, Daddy's back in business!

I don't have a lot of funny stories to tell you. Sorry, I've been a little preoccupied with trying to get my lawsuit in order. I've been waiting for 2 days for a phone call from my lawyer, but if I don't hear from hear from him by 2:00 today, I'm going to have to file it anyway. *shudder* Wish me luck.

I also need him to write me a letter at some time to try and settle this thing out of court. I really don't feel like having to drive the 6 hours for this crap.

I was blessed with 4 piles of diarrhea and 2 piles of vomit last night as I returned from the movies. Yeah, that's EXACTLY what I wanted at 11:00 P.M. I really needed to clean up that right before I was going to go to bed. My boss's dog is very, very nervous because they are gone. So now she's broke out with stress diarrhea/vomiting. I even got to clean up another pile of diarrhea this morning, right before I went to work. It's the gift that keeps on giving. Anybody want my life? Nah, I didn't think so.

I sure could use a good colon cleansing. Anyone have a good reference?

I'm kidding of course.

But I'm pretty sure that Big R could use a good colon cleansing to go with his fantastic plumber's crack.

By the way Big R, you do realize that there is a bridal show in Dallas in 2 weeks? Better start planning the trip up.

Gotta go, more puppies (a.k.a. bitches) and kitties (a.k.a. pussycats) to save*.

Keep on keepin' on.

*That was just for you, Annie. I hope you enjoyed those references. Gotta love the perks of the job.

Rugh Row Shaggy

So the House passed the anti-internet gambling law. Damit. But it's gonna be a little tougher to pass it in the Senate. PLEASE WRITE YOUR SENATORS!!!! I don't care if they ban internet casinos, just don't ban internet poker. Can a brotha have a little fun and make a little extra cash in the comfort of my own home without being judged? This could put a serious damper on my supplemental income. Bastages! Another prime example of da man trying to bring us down.

Here's something nice: I just made a nice profit since mid-June and I was only bonus whoring on 3 sites, since my Neteller account is shut down. Here's my problem though. I have finished my Full Contact poker bonus, and now the only bonus I can go after is the monthly Will Hill bonus. And that's not enough to keep a brotha satisfied. I'm gonna bite the bullet and re-open up my Neteller account, hopefully today. I'm just a little scared to open it back up because any stolen money is on my arse. So, you can see how I am a little nervous.

I'm about spent. Keep on keepin' on.

American League Continues Dominance

Yes my friends, the American League kicks ass. Michael Young hits the game-winning triple in the top of the ninth with 2 outs and 2 strikes to drive in the go ahead run. The American League hasn't lost the All-Star game since 1996, and
is 6-3 over the last 9 World Series. They dominated the NL this year in Interleague Play. Pretty crazy. I'm proud of Michael Young for winning the MVP. Nice clutch hit.

I played Full Contact for at total table time of 6 hours at $2/$4. End result: +$20. I'll take it though, because I can back BIG TIME as the tough beats were brutal. Not necessarily bad beats, just tough ones consecutively. My KK vs. AA. That one was especially bad. But I'm over 1/2 way done with clearing the remaining $85 bonus there. It clears pretty quickly when you are 3 tabling at $2/$4.

Yesterday, I saw a dog for "check rash around penis." This has got to be interesting, right? I go in there and realize that the dogs penis is juuuuuust fine. His scrotum was another story. He was also "scooting his butt" a lot. It turned out that he was scooting a lot trying to itch his scrotum, which was about 5 different shades of red and black. Nice. Poor little guy. I think that he will appreciate the ointment I sent home for him. Ahhhhhhh.

That's about all I have for now. I need to fill out the papers for my counter-suit today. Then I'll be all set until the trial. Cross your fingers that he wises up and realizes that he is gonna lose, and decides to settle out of court.

Update: Small Claims Court

This afternoon, I officially "responded" in writing to my arse being sued. This is what I had to write:

"I deny any and all allegations regarding case number 12345". And then I signed it and dated it.

How long do you think it took me to accomplish this task?

1 minute?

10 minutes?

15 minutes?

Nah, it took me about 25 minutes to get my paper turned in. Apparently, there are a TON of people filing/answering small claims. I even got to wait in line twice, because I wasn't sure what I needed to do. I was thrilled to wait in line again, as I think anybody would.

It's kind of like waiting in line at the DPS. The workers there ain't exactly in a hurry to move the line along. Don't you just love government employees?

Now, tonight, I get to fill out my small claims counter-suit. I think that I really need to get a law degree. I really should. The only thing bad thing is that I hate the law. Hmmmm, that might make it tough to finish law school, don't you think?

Keep on keepin' on.

Wow.

Yesterday was crazy.

Woke up in my former boss's house. Went back to work with the old gang. Did a few surgeries in the morning. Went to lunch. Then all hell broke loose in the afternoon. Let's just say that we were just a tad busy. I finished the last appointment with about 5 minutes to spare.

I talked to a lawyer last night concerning my upcoming court case. He said that the guy is clearly crazy and that we may be able to settle out of court, since he's in the wrong. Today I'm going to file my written response to his lawsuit, and work on my counter-suit. Fun. I will be able to sue for 3 times my deposit because he didn't follow the law (Mmmm, whatever gave me that idea? Oh wait, maybe because he STOLE MY DEPOSIT!!!!!). Whew, glad I got that off my chest.

I'm sooooooooo sick of the man trying to bring me down. Really, I am.

Gasp....Poker content:

I've been playing a lot of Full Contact Poker as of late, mainly because I only have 3 accounts with money in them. I'm about 1/2 way done with my deposit bonus. Yesterday, I played $2/$4 for a about 3 hours of table time (2-3 tabling in 2 different sessions for a total of 3 hours when adding the total time for each table) and ended up down about $4. I'll take it, I guess.

I'm debating (well, mass-debating) about re-opening my Neteller account and putting some SERIOUS restrictions on it. I don't know if I can do this or not, but I'm thinking about maxing out the daily withdrawals to $200. So then, even if the mother-truckers hack into it again, I'll at least limit my losses. I'll also try and ban Insta-Cash withdrawals on my account. Basically, this is gonna make things a little more hassled, but it's better than not playing the bonuses, which has been the case for the last 3 months. Hmmmmmmm.

Today, Congress is gonna vote on banning internet gambling. I hope you cats out there have written your Congresspeople on this one. PLEASE tell me you did.

Back In H-Town

I made it back to my old home town this weekend. Saturday I went to Lil N's to hang out with Big R and her. We went to an old bar the we like to call Cheers, because it is "where everybody knows our name." At least it used to be. Now there's just one bartender remaining that I know. Changes, I guess.

Yesterday, we went to the Astros game. Dang the Astros can frustrate a brotha. Good game though, even though they lost in the 12th inning, thanks to "Lights On Lidge." He used to be "Lights Out" but not so much this season. It's really a shame.

This morning, I started my 2 weeks of working at my old clinic. It's pretty weird to be back there. Driving home after the Astros game, I started thinking, "Shouldn't I be headed back to Ft. Worth now?" Just an oddity of my personality, I guess.

We are gonna be BUSY this afternoon, because I'm booked solid for 3 straight hours. Gonna be interesting that's for sure. At least the day will go by faster.

Well, I'd better get back to the grind. Keep on keepin' on.

18 Roller Coaster Hours

Where do I start? As I so poetically wrote yesterday, I worked at an animal shelter. I LOVE WORKING THERE! At the end of the day, I actually "worked" about 3 hours. The rest of the time is spent waiting on things to get ready, or animals to come in, etc.

The drive home was nice, as rush hour traffic was on the light side. Annie and I had to figure out what we were going to do, because this is our last night together for a while (I'm going to H-town today after work for 2 weeks). Here's some back story to what I'm about to tell you:

A little over a year ago, Annie's 2 dogs got into a scuffle, and her Golden/Ridgeback mix ended up taking out her $hit-zu/Lhaso mix's eye. Blood everywhere, and she had to take her to have the eye surgically removed. Traumatic. Traumatic. Traumatic. Understandably, Annie has been a "little" scared about her big dog getting into another fight. The big dog has been kept isolated from all dogs with a few exceptions since then.

Enter DD (that's me) stage left with his 2 puppies (a 7 year old Aussie, and a 2 year old Golden). Now we have a problem, because obviously, some time these 3 are gonna have to meet. So last night it happened. Let's just say that Annie was a little worried. O.K., a "little worried" doesn't really cover it, but I'll move on.

Long story short, I managed to dog whisper her big dog (Shelby)to a pretty good success. She did growl and snap and my sweet Daisy, but I reprimanded Shelby pretty quickly. Shelby did pretty well, as she snapped only once more, and I immediately stopped her. I'm not going into all of the details as to how I set this up, or how I was watching her body language, but let's just say that I think it was a pretty positive first encounter. The last time she was with another dog, Shelby was very aggressive, and didn't play very nice, so this was an improvement.

Then after getting Annie calmed down by a few increments, we decided to go to a movie. The only movie that we could catch that wasn't @ midnight was "Nacho Libre." Bad choice. I'm no movie critic, but that wasn't exactly the funniest movie I've seen. In fact, it's not really that funny at all. Save your $10 and watch Big R bend over and expose his plumber's crack. That's much more entertaining*.

Then last night I didn't sleep well at all. I woke up in the middle of the night numerous times and had butterflies. I kept going over the incidents surrounding my upcoming small claims court appearance. I don't know why I'm worried about it, because the worse that can happen is that I owe him $5,000. Not cool, but at least it's not jail time or something like that. I should be the one to win around $4000-$5000 but, like in Texas Hold 'em, most of the time you don't know what the other dude is holding, or if you're gonna win the hand.

I just got a message from Cameltoes. He's at a low cost clinic that is having a BIG vaccination sale/bizarre/extravaganza. They open at 9:00 A.M. He said, "Holy cow, there are about 2 dozen Mexicans here with their Chihuahuas and Pit Bulls waiting to be seen." Have fun with that. Y Caramba! Y Chihuahua! Como se dice "My name is Cameltoes, and I'm gonna loose a finger today."? Me llamo es el Doctor los dedos del camello is all I know.

Keep on keepin' on.

*That joke never gets old, does it?

Beoooooooch, You Got Served

Today I'm working at an animal shelter. I love working here. No stress, nice lunch break, and I really only "work" about 1-3 hours each day. Can't complain about that. In fact, I really didn't do anything much until about 2:00 P.M. All in a hard day's work. Ahhhhhhh.

I'm about to head down to Houston to work at my old clinic. I'm gonna take off Saturday after work, then my puppies and I are headed to stay with Lil N and Big R for the night*. Then Sunday we are going to see the Astros/Cardinals game, which will be my first Astros home game I will have been to since the "shot heard 'round the world" (a.k.a. the MASSIVE home run that Pujols hit in the top of the 9th in Game 5 of the NLCS last year). Hopefully they can win one for me, as I don't think I'll have many other chances to see them play this year.

I don't have a lot of funny stuff to write about. Especially since "I got served." Long story short, I get to go to small claims court. Jealous????? He beat me to the punch, after I threatened to sue him. So now I'm gonna have to counter-sue him to make this shiznit work out. What a headache. And I'm the one that got my $$$$$ stolen from me! Hopefully the good guys will win one for once. I can't say that I'm really looking forward to it though. If he just would have paid me what I am owed, he could have saved a lot of money. Now I'm gonna have to ask for more $$$$$. Sad.

I'm just sick and tired of being pushed around. Sick of the little guy getting run over. Sick of the man tryin' to bring me down. This one's for all you little guys out there, trying to keep the man from bringin' you down. I'm gonna stand up and fight. And fight for what's right, because I'm suspecting that I'm not the first one that he's done this too. Then, when this is all over and done with, I can say, "Domino, motha-trucka!!!" on his izass.

Word.

Keep on keepin' on.

Did I Suck Out???

Here's an interesting hand that happened. The other player was a rock, so I knew he had a good hand. Do you think that my play was incorrect? My table image at the table was tight-aggressive. Here it is:


Texas Hold'em $2-$4 @ Full Contact Poker

Seat 1: Player 1($135 in chips)
Seat 2: Hero (me) ($128.70 in chips)
Seat 3: Villian ($72.10 in chips)
Seat 4: Player 4 ($169.85 in chips)
Seat 5: Player 5 ($86 in chips)
Seat 6: Player 6 ($158.80 in chips)
Seat 7: Player 7 ($74 in chips)
Seat 8: Player 8 ($14.90 in chips)
Seat 9: Player 9 ($52.40 in chips)
Seat 10: Player 10 ($76.10 in chips)

ANTES/BLINDS HERO posts blind ($1), VILLIAN post big blind ($2).

PRE-FLOP
Everybody folds to me and I have QcJc, since I'm up against a rock, I raise.

HERO bets $3, VILLIAN bets $4, HERO calls $2.

At this point I have him on Big Noises (AA-JJ) or Big Slick or AQ, which is why I just call his raise.

FLOP [board cards 3C,AH,KC ]

HERO bets $2, VILLIAN bets $4, HERO bets $4, VILLIAN bets $4, HERO calls $2.

Here, I have him on AA, KK, or AK, but I figure I have 11 to 12 outs or so (not including the Ace of clubs, as I would give him a boat or quads). Is ramming and jamming wrong here?

TURN [board cards 3C,AH,KC,9H ]HERO bets $4, VILLAIN bets $8, HERO bets $8, VILLIAN bets $8, HERO calls $4.

RIVER [board cards 3C,AH,KC,9H,5C ]
HERO bets $4, VILLIAN calls $4.

SHOWDOWN
HERO shows [ JC,QC ]
VILLIAN mucks cards [ AC,KS ]

I'm not exactly sure if rammin and jammin the turn was a good idea or not. I need some more time to work on the exact odds. It worked out this time, but I'd like to know if I was correct or not to play it this aggressively.

Keep on keepin' on

I'm A Tired Motha Trucka

Had a good weekend, for the most part. I even got to help Annie move. Hung over. And off 5 hours of sleep. In 98 degree heat. But I'm glad that I was there to help her, because she would have been in trouble if I wasn't able to.

Big R and Lil N made it Friday night. Then we played poker for about 4 hours or so. And Big R and Cameltoes proceeded to river the ever living crap outta me. Down $40. No bueno.

On a good note, I was 4 tabling at Full Contact (3 tables of $2/$4 and 1 at $1/$2) and managed to pull off a $110 profit for about 45 minutes of my time. I'll take that all day, every day please. I've managed to clear about $150 of my $250 or so of bonus there rather quickly at these limits. It's been one heck of a ride at this site. Lots and lots of bad beats, and no cards.

I'm off for more degenerate gambling, as I'm going to Lone Star Park to bet on the ponies with Annie. YIPEEE!!

Keep on keepin' on.
