live blog of the mookie

9:50pm EST I registered for the Mookie. Boy it'd be nice to have a nice cash, and maybe TID for a TOC seat...

10:10pm hmmm, willi wonka, pushmonkey APOSEC72 seem like familiar names. I'm at Table 10

10:15 AA I raise to 90 UTG+2, i lp caller and NewinNov in BB. Flop Q44cc, I bet 75 NewinNov raises to 320, I call, turn K he shoves, I tank/fold 2425

10:23 win a hand from the bb when I fire 2nd barrel on 2heart board when I turn middle pair/nk

11:01 first hand after break, 2 red aces. I raise to 350, willywonka calls. Flop 323cc. I bet pot (800), ww shoves, I snap call, he shows 66c, board runs out clubs and I'm done. Really? No way he has a random 2 or 3 there, so I really know I'm good. But, come on, that was cruel and unusual punishment.

On a perspective note, at least John's son's tumor was fully removed. He'll have the challenge of the scar, but hopefully, he'll fully recover...

BBT5

I'd really like to take part in the BBT5. I do most of my poker blogging on Twitter these days (jasonssimon), but maybe I'll start writing here for giggles
