Come on, lets see some staff get involved! That would be the real attention getter if some staff got involved!

Edit: Can't wait for the PTOTW in a bit! Lets see who is invited.

Your wish is my command

I'll join in and try to do the same as Chris, and get up to $10,000.

I guess I'll start at Full Tilt, since I want to try out that play money freeroll tactic. And maybe move on to Celeb Poker when I have some bankroll as the limit hold'em tables are looser there.

My Full Tilt username is maollila. I use that same account to other games as well, but will keep books of my challenge bankroll separately. Or might as well cash out all money from there, so its easier to track bankroll and rakeback as well.

I'll PM weekly updates to you gamer4life27, and also blog about the progress here:

Doesn't the PTOTW new thread appear every Thursday? Or am I crazy?

Edit: Ok, we all know I'm a little crazy, but still. Just wondering.

No. Just want to see what posts got in, and threads, etc.

Edit: Plus, I could always be a little crazy.

Being "normal" is vastly over-rated...being a nut case is more fun!

Ugghh.. figures. Played in the Ferguson satellite, and of course, got knocked out because of those stupid donks. And played in a heads up tourney, got pocket 6's, and guy had 7 2 off suit. I had the chip lead, and he moved all in. I called, and a 7 came on the turn. Then, was down to 280 chips, and flopped top and bottom pair and moved all in. He called with mid pair, and hit there higher kicker on the river.

It never seems to end. Pocket Kings on the button deep in a 10k play chip SnG 90 people. blinds at 60/120. 3 callers, and I raise to 480. BB calls, and two other callers. Flop comes out 10 J 6 rainbow. BB checks, guy bets ~1200 into a pot of like 2100 or something. Other guy goes all in. I go over the top of him for 3.2k total. BB folds, and the other guy calls. He shows A J, and the other guy shows Q 10. Turn, blank. River, a J to make the guy who had us both covered take the pot.

Edit: Still no PTOTW!

I'm sorry hun Well I didn't get any sleep today because Carrie called and woke me up shortly after she went to work this morning. There was a field mouse that somehow made its way into the pool where she is a lifeguard, and she had to get it out....the panicked mouse bit her, so she had to go to the hospital and get antibiotics. I just got off work not too long ago, and man I am sooooo exhausted. One hour of sleep is hardly sufficient.
