Choctaw Weekend

Headed to Choctaw in the afternoon. I took the day off and I'll pick up Gail in Sherman on the way. We're really excited as the Architect sent us our plans and it looks like we are there. The outside is georgous and the layout is just what we want. We still need to firm up a few things and then we need to get serious about selling out current house.

We are staying at the Choctaw Resort hotel for two nights and we'll see Gretchen Wilson Saturday night with friends. Should be a good time and I'll update with a Live Update as much as I can. Guess we'll see!!!

End Zone defeat

I had 12,000 and had two pair Ks and 9s and went all in on the turn. Gary calls me and hits the gut shot straight. Oh well, Gail continues with the stellar play and ends up 3rd. We're really looking forward to Friday and Saturday. Bounty tourney Friday and Gretchen Wilson Saturday with friends. Should be fun!!!!!

End Zone night

Took 5th last night at the Varsity. Needed points as I'm trying to get in the top 150 for the monthly. At the end of the year they will have a tourney for a trip to the main event at the WSOP so I'm trying to qualify. Headed out to the End Zone tonight with the Poker Outlaws. Update later and then it is on the Choctaw Friday for the Bounty tournament, cash games and Gretchen Wilson on Saturday night!

Counting Girls revenge part 2

Been some kind of weekend. Counting Girl has exacted a little revenge on the Choctaw crowd. She had a few rough weekends but made a great comeback this time. I'm thinking after this weekend that I need to stop playing and be Counting Girls manager (towel boy), water boy ( Diet Dr Pepper fetcher) and sex toy (currently giggilo changing to Counting Girls private dancer)!

I was having a pretty good tournament Friday night until my JJ went heads up against KK. That scenario is usually a bad one for the JJ. I was out but Counting Girl was grinding and ended up 4th. She needed just a little luck at the final table to win and it just never came. She cashed out for $440 with one bounty.

We played cash before the tournament and I was just up and down spinning my wheels and Counting Girl up $250. I gave her my best advice "don't give it back" and continued on. A few minutes later we're in a hand and Counting Girl ends up looking at a stack of $500! I get up and tell her lets cash out as the tournament is about to start. She starts stacking chips in a tray and immediately gets AA. I'm thinking of a bad beat I just had at Winstar and I think oh hell here we go again. Ends up she puts a guy all in and takes down another $93! We go cash out and she is at $593. Cashes the tournament and then we play cash again.

Once again I'm spinning my wheels and about 15 minutes later Counting Girl comes up and says "I've just tripled up". Ok, keep it up. A few minutes later I go and check on her and she has $400 in front of her and she says get me a rack I need to move. I sprint to grab her a rack and she cashed out again for $400. At the cash tables we always start with $100 at the 1-2 table. She moves to another table and we finally leave at about 2am. A very good night for her.

Saturday night was more of the same for me. Counting Girl is up again $100 when I say we just need to leave because I am doing nothing.

Over all it was a good weekend. Poker is so up and down that you just have to grind. Saw Brian and Shirley at a wine tasting this weekend and had a good time. Bought some wine and I think I'll do down a bottle or two. See ya!

Counting Girls Revenge!!

Counting Girl goes for $1,100 at Choctaw Friday night.

One Outer mixes it up with Girly Man who he put out with the now Infamous Flat Tire in the Bounty Tourament at Choctaw. The dealer that dealt the flat tire tells me last night that the flat tire hand was GROSS!! Put two people out with it and collected 2 bounties. One had AA and Girly Man had AK. What can I say. I love it. More details to come, Counting Girl and I are headed out for more adventure.
