Poker Television

I've been watching a lot of Poker on Tv being Home....actually downloading it from thepokerbay.org (Bittorrent is great) and the shows I've enjoyed the most have been high Stakes Poker and Poker after Dark.

Jamie Gold, the reigning WSOP Main event Champion has been on this weeks shows, and while his antics never bothered me in watching him win the Bracelet, but watching him on PAD caused me to turn it off. The worst part of it is that he was pushed into it.

The Host came up to the table and basically told him he was being to quiet and that he should start trash talking. It was only after that he became the table asshole. I did like it on HSP when on the first hand, Doyle Brunson raised over him for $100,000 with the statement 'This is real money, Jamie".

Just a catch up post

Hello again to all of the Millions that check this place out on an daily if not hourly basis :D Just thought I'd drop by while I'm waiting for my cardplayer tournament start

Went to moncton last week for a day trip with Carrie. It was a good time. I liked just getting out of the house and away for a day. Went to the disney store and around the mall, then Chapters, which is the place I'll be spending massive amounts of money when I finally hit the million. Then we picked up food for our other half's :D (Arby's for Sandy and Wendy's for Willie). I'm almost glad there is no Arby's in miramichi, I'd be twice the size I am now.

Went out friday night to Dooly's in Chatham (Seeing how the one in Newcastle hasen't reopened yet, Anyone know the story on that?) I got permission from Sandy to put $10 in the VLT's. I hit the top of the mountian on "Cash Climb" then a couple of bonuses on "Rum Runner" Final Tally: $180. So I got some groceries and just some other things that we needed. And it payed for that night out and the next night at Larocque's house party/poker game. It was a great time and what a nice place they've got. I'll be back for the Wrestlemania party :D.

Sandy's loving the new job, guess it's my turn :) I've applied at a few places and got a letter from the Government about a job at the College. I guess we'll see.

Well my tournament has started and I've got anoter one starting in a couple of minutes...TTYL

That's an impressive list. I'm excited about The FAN and the Moncton stations although I like JACK FM (Toronto) as well. One of the best parts is there is no titles hitting the screen like the digital music GAlaxie channels. TV will be on more, but I'll be watching it less :D

The worst play ever
