Default Re: Paul Kammen\'s book

I looked at my numbers for the year just recently. I'd be up a lot more if I never played live [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

My being up for the year has a lot to do with my discovering www.bonuswhores.com. Absolute poker has basically unlimited bonuses that pay $10/100 raked hands. I question whether they even make money in their average 2-4 HE game, since they pay out .90 for each raked hand and they have to reach $20 to rake a whole dollar. They lose money on all the pots from $5-19 dollars. So my being up for the year really just means I can beat an essentially rake free online 2-4 HE game.

I've blown about half of those winnings for the year drinking and gambling live at Canterbury.

Drinking and gambling at Canterbury may not be +EV, but it sure is fun.

Why sure. Perhaps a Guinness this time. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'm about 85% sure I'll be heading east for Christmas. It will probably be at my sister's place in CT, in which case I would probably spend a day or three at Foxwoods, playing somewhere between $1-3 and $75/150, possibly both. Hey, that would be a good opportunity to play in an over-ante spread-limit game for this alleged book.

If it's not at Debbie's, it'll be at my parents', in which case I'll have even more incentive to head out and gamble, and they're near AC. I liked the Trop and the Borgata (especially the waitresses at the Borgata). Again, it might be $1-5 stud or $80/160 HE, depending on how things go between now and then.

In any case, I'll be bringing the laptop along, and hopefully get serious about writing if I haven't before then. Right now, I'm under a certain amount of pressure to work overtime, both from my employer and my creditors, so it's kind of on the back burner.

I would love to play a little drunk 1-5 spread limit with the infamous (more than famous) AndyB in AC

Reese's section of S/S is excellent, way too good to be mentioned in this thread.
