Thief made woman, 83, smoke crack, police say
Check this out.
Supposedly she forced her to smoke crack to steal her identity. But in the article the charges against her are all something related to identity theft and such. So is it not illegal to force someone to smoke crack?? And more importantly is it not illegal to smoke crack if someone is forcing it on you???
I suck at poker.
Played in the Hoy last night and my table was worthless. There was absolutely no action. By the first break we were all still dead even at our starting stacks. Now I would have loved to take advantage of this but I had no cards what so ever. I stole blinds every now and again just to keep even but I played horribly. The first time I actually had an ace and paint after the break I raised and was reraised. Stupid me I pushed and of course he had pocket rockets. I tried to be patient early and wait for a chance to chip up but with no action at our table it was impossible. I don't even know what to do in that situation. Anyone out there have any suggestions for this predicament??

Decent showing in the Mook.
I got 15th in the Mookie last night. Go me. I coulda gone further but I done messed up. Dag Nabit!
On to the Riverchasers event tonight! But I forgot about the HORSE tourney this weekend. Not sure I'll make it.
So many things going on right now that I have to believe that I might not be playing much poker in the near future. Sucks. But you gotta have priorities right?
Let's see, what can end this on a happier note?
This helps a bit.

Friday Night Donkament
I seem to be the only one registered tonight.
Might have something to do with the fact that Kat put the password on her site as donkament. If anyone finds me here the password is actually donkarama.

Fuck Sprint! Fuck them in their stupid asses!
I am so confused right now that I couldn't even berate the customer support person from Sprint.
So I'm overdue in paying my cell phone bill. After receiving calls from them and a text msg reminding me that I need to pay it I decided that I might as well get it out of the way. I go to their website where I have my online billing setup with them to view my bill and pay it. My handy dandy browser remembers my login and password as I bring up their site and hit enter to log on. But I get an error that there is something wrong with my password. Hmm, did I change it and forget? Might as well try again right? Nope, no luck. It keeps telling me to call customer service and they even give me the number. I dial them up and get in their queue. After waiting about 10 minutes on hold I get an apologetic customer service rep that explains if I have entered my password incorrectly 3 times it will lock me out. Now I have to tell him my password to even talk to him so I'm pretty sure I know it but he offers to change it for me so I can try to log in again. Super! What should I change it to, he asks. I suggest changing it to the same password I was using so as to create less confusion for me. That's not really changing it though is it? Oh well then just add the number 2 to the end. Now I'm figuring since he's offered to change it so I can try again that this is so I can get in right away and take care of my bill. But after changing it he tells me it will take 2 to 4 hours for the change to take affect! WTF!! OK, so he lost me there. Whatever. But he has another offer for me. This one time only he can take my payment over the phone and waive the surcharge for helping me give him my money. No thanks, I'd rather review my bill online before I pay it. Plus I signed up for paperless billing which means I can only view my bill online and they no longer send me statements in the mail. I'll just do it later so I go home and forget about it and figure I'll just try again the next day.
Now it's the next day. I bring up their website and attempt to login with my new password and again it tells me there is a problem and I need to call customer support. Figures. I call em up and again get in the queue. This time I wait a bit longer at around 15 to 20 minutes. Another nice lady eventually gets to me and I explain my situation. But I guess I somehow got to a different department this time because she can't help me and transfers me to a different department even though I dialed the same exact phone number as the day before. Again I get to wait in the queue for about 15 minutes before the next nice lady gets to me. She looks up my info and actually has an answer to why I'm having problems! Yes, finally someone who knows what's going on. I'm so excited!! She explains that because my bill is past due that this locks me out of my online account as well....................uhmm.... but.......hey.....what?
So because I'm late paying my bill, I can't view my bill or pay my bill?? How does this make any sense. I'm not paying a bill that I haven't even seen yet. I couldn't even really get that mad because I was so confused. She offers to send me to yet another department to help me take care of my bill and says they can review my charges over the phone. Wow, they are going to go through my bill, call by call, minute by minute??? No thanks not really want to do that. What I want is to look at my bill and then I'm more that happy to pay the damn thing but NOOOOOOO this is not an option.
I have no idea what to even do next. I suppose I'll have to break down and pay over the phone and then go look at it online after they've unlocked my online account. But if there are problems can I dispute charges that I've already payed for?? And trust me there have been many times I've had to get them to take crap off my bill.
My head hurts. I give up.

Conspiracy?
This is my new favorite blog! http://www.onlinepokerconspiracy.com/
Check out the other pages also, it's all Gold! My favorite part is the interview with a former employee of some anonymous poker site. Good stuff.
Every now and again we all have something happen to us in an online game that might make us think it's rigged some how. Maybe because we can't remember something that bad ever happening in a live game. But as any player who plays a lot of live poker will tell you, it happens there too. You just play so many more hands online than you could possibly play live. I just love it when some kook comes out of the woodwork to let us all in on something he just figured out, all by himself. Woo hoo! But what's he going to do? Bring down the online poker scene? Wow, that'd be impressive. Go you!
Played the MATH last night. Played like shit but after awhile I was just trying to get to the points. Think whatever you want about it but I will take every advantage I can with this format. There's a reason I'm 3rd in points, above many many better poker players. And my starting table last night was wicked! Let's see, who was there? Wawfuls, Blinders, Lucko, Cmitch, Pushmonkey, Smokkee, JoeSpeaker, BoneDaddy and Me. Talk about rigged! All the action early on was at our table. I froze up and stayed out of the way. Big mistake but at least the chat was entertaining.
And I'm starting to hear more about this blogger tourney is Vegas in June. I mean, I've heard about it before but wasn't sure on the details. After the hotel, airfare, and whatnot I just can't see me making it this year. If anyone else is going and wants to share a room and perhaps is driving from the midwest, let me know. Otherwise I'd have to have one hell of a good month playing poker to afford it right now. Fudge! I really want to go!!! Maybe I can sell my other car. Anyone wanna buy a 93 Ford Explorer? Cheap!

Guess what today is???
Smoke em if ya got em!
Back to my crappy mindset where I'm playing pussy poker. It sucks. I donked out of the Mookie on a bad play. And then last night at the Riverchasers event I just couldn't make anything happen. I get a couple of aggressive people at my table and it just shuts down my game. Fuck. I'd like to blame the cards but it was bad choices by me and just plain pussing out.
A good weekend of debauchery should clear my head.
