Done for a while

Well, aside from the few spammers, the few anti's and the few pro's, I doubt many people will miss my blogs. More than likely, I am just gonna stay local and work, at least until the WPO (or whatever they end up calling it now) in January. At which time I will grace Tunica with my presence again. For you diehards who just NEED to read stories...check out www.kcpoker.net. It is a small site at the moment, and mostly just a bunch of fellow hayseeds from Kansas City, but there are some good stories there from time to time, as well as other poker info.
I ran across a link/blog of someone who said "Wow, I just found an abandoned WSOP dealer blog. Vitriol Extraordinaire!I'm having a hard time picking out just one paragraph to quote.Geezus, go enjoy the ranting, especially the one about Kathy Fucking Leibert. This is one bitter dealer! WSOP Dealer" and "For the record, he also calls Sam Farha a cocksucker and Joseph Hachem a fucking wanker. Many times"

Not really sure how to respond to this guy....other than he didn't read the REASON why I said those things "many times" (that being, to try and actually get search engine hits, by repeating key phrases). Also, I am not bitter at all. My buddy wanted me to write a blog about my 'adventures'. Fair enough - I did. On the bright side, he DID say to 'go enjoy the ranting'...so overall, he DOES understand the overall concept. For that, I thank him :) As for the ranting itself...who in the hell would want to read about sugar and spice and everything nice? I had NUMEROUS positive tidbits of accounts. But who cares? As soon as I write something to the affect of "Katrina Jett is AWESOME (and hot) to deal to...I thoroughly enjoyed everytime she was on my table", I would get hammered by anti Katrina Jett people. You can't please all of the people all of the time, nor do I care to. Good stories require conflict and/or animosity.
My personal beliefs/feeling of these people are just that...MINE! This is MY blog and I will write whatever the hell I want. Agree or disagree...I don't care! I did not, nor will ever, embellish my thoughts or stories with fiction, but I damn sure will express my stories with what literary skills (good or bad - mostly bad) that I have. TuckerMax.com and Maddox.xmission.com are two sites that I tried to emulate. No, by comparison, my writings do not even come CLOSE to EITHER of those two guys! They blow my shit away - hands down. But their sites are awesome sites, with millions of hits a week. Why? Because their opinions and stories are GOOD! I just try to entertain, and voice my opinion.

Tunica

Not much to say here. The tournament, as a whole, was very unexciting. There were a few big names, but only for the main event, which had 179 people total...mostly locals who got in via satellites. It was overall, a fun 17 days of laid back 'good ol poker'.
