You Just Made the Blog

Well, I am having a blast at my Grandma's house. I was able to jack into a neighboring wireless network, so now I have wireless internet in a house which my grandparents have lived in since before I was born. It just feels good to be able to help my family out. I guess Karma is a 2-way street because my domination of the 5/10 Short Handed NL tables continues. I wish someone would tell me why people play like this.

I put him on a small-to-mid pair preflop (I didn't think that he was smart enough to play Kings, Aces, Queens or Jacks this way) and I tried to represent a big hand. I for one cannot believe he called me preflop, though based on some of his previous retarded play (He called all in with J6 on a 6442 board against 88. He did hit the J on the river) I am not surprised he called me on the flop. This guy is the ultimate calling station and just made my buddy list.

See Ma, I do win big pots too!
