Above: Nice return on a $13 investment (click to enlarge). Notice Bodog is now called Bovada and there's no more MemphisMOJO -- everybody has a number.
I haven't been able to play poker lately. I went to Seattle for 10 days, then had minor back surgery when I returned (nothing too serious). After the surgery, I had doctors orders: I could stand or lie down, but no sitting! Yikes, that makes it tough to play online poker.
Yesterday, cleared by my doctor, I played in this same tournament. Eighteen players got paid and I was 19th. I decided I could do better than that today, and so I did.
Above: The cooler shown above knocked me from chip lead to short stack when we were three-handed -- ouch.
Above: I returned the favor on the final deal, although by then I had a three-to-one chip lead.
Glad you're up to sitting down for it.

ReplyDeleteVERY NICE
Too bad the site screwed up everything with their paranoia.
Well, thank goodness. I think that Santa will probably pass over your house this year 'cause you haven't sent out any cards...but you got an early present anyway. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteNah, I don't think Santa gives a hoot about Xmas cards!
Glad you're up and about. I didn't know about your back surgery. I had a laminectomy back in 1964...no fun.
Get that money.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling okay.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the back problems were minor. Congrats on the cash!
ReplyDeleteThanx for the link! It doesn't surprise me. Our housing prices have gone south! Massively so. Not a good thing for people trying to sell but good for people who are buying.
ReplyDeleteStone Creek is offering three years of "free" golf for $100 each year with every new home purchase between now and April. If you're a golfer that is an incredible incentive!
Glad the back thing wasn't a big issue. Protect that A frame!
ReplyDeleteNow I have Gene Autry in my head. Nice win.
Hey, don't leave me hanging like that! What kind of car did you get?
ReplyDelete@Lowell: Lexus ES 350
ReplyDeleteNice score and recovery. Interesting name change for Bodog. Hope you have a complete successful recovery.
ReplyDeleteFans: I went to my last professional football game years ago in Houston. I shall never return to such a venue because of all the fanatics. Or, a better word - lunatics!
ReplyDeleteWe were downtown Ocala yesterday...MOJO's Grille has moved. In it's place is something called Big Belly's Deli. Ugh. What a name. I'll post a pic in the near future!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Congrats on your new car! Love the Lexus. Also love our Acura RL.
ReplyDelete@Lowell - the mojo thing infringed on my rights to the name. Rather than haul them Into court, my lawyers talked to them.
ReplyDeleteWe're heading south tomorrow for a few days...
ReplyDeleteHave a really merry Christmas and we wish you the best of everything for the new year!
Merry Christmas, Dave. I hope your retirement continues to bring you tons o' fun in 2012.
ReplyDeleteOn the eve of the day, I can only say, "Have a Merry, Merry" Xray...ooops I mean, Xmas! Or Christmas. Or...
ReplyDeleteOK, I'll quit now.
Merry Christmas Mojo, hope you're feeling better now
ReplyDeleteWhoop-up a case of Christmas, MOJO. Have a good one.
