This is interesting; it tracks where the stars are playing. Right now, John digesting is playing $200-$400 NL Holdem. I should join him. Small problem: I can't afford the small blind. Oh, well I guess I will just get back to crushing our little 25c-50c home game. Oh wait, I can't beat that either. Maybe I can convince Ferruzzo to cut the deck and play a little "high card" because that is where I have a serious advantage. Seriously, I couldn't beat my grandma at tiddleywinks right now if you spotted me 3 tiddleys and 2 winks. If you want all of my money, this is the week to take a shot at me. Online yesterday, I lost with JJ against TT when he flopped his set. I then lost with AK to AQ when he runner-runnered QQ to beat my flopped two-pair, Aces over Kings. An hour later I get dealt pocket pair 5 consecutive hands, 2 of those were AA. Four out of five times, I raised and got folds all around. The other time, I had TT in the BB and it folded around to me. Then, tonight in our home game, I flop a boat, only to have my opponent hit a two-outer to get a higher boat than I did. This is how bad the night was: once in a hand with 4 of us, I mucked my hand (even though it checked around on the river) thinking it was impossible that K-high could win. The pot went to J-high. My sister's dog died (hit by a car) and I lost in Omaha with AA23, suited. Dude, come play me and take all my money. Do it now. But if you would rather take it from John D'Agostino, follow where he is playing
