Thursday, March 29, 2007. We have all had our share of bad beats, but next time keep this one in mind and you can save a trip to the mountain. In front of the kids! And what's up with that cop? Posted by RoccoBoxer @ 1:52 AM. Links to this post. Monday, March 26, 2007. This week Godfrey got the shark to himself (Bern didn't make it this week) and Todd the fish. See last weeks results here. The following players made it out:. Play was very tight with only 2 rebuys in the first hour. Godfrey had a very...

RoccoBoxer Poker Blog: August 2006
http://roccoboxer.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 25, 2006. Better Late Than Never. August 19th - Home Game. I picked this title for three reasons:. 1) We had 4 late adds that really livened up the place: Stacey and I were glad some regulars from the Big-O gave us a call and joined in: Bubba, Lee Anne, rocky, and Mellissa. 2) I was a dog early, but came on strong pretty late in the tourney. 3) This blog is so overdue. The list of 16 players were as follows Cristine, Joe, Brad, Ed. Henry, Lee Anne, Todd, Bubba, Rocky, Mellissa, Joel, and I.

Friday, December 29, 2006. Vegas, Christmas, and 2007 Tourney changes. I played the Caesar’s tourney the next day and that was bad - no cards, best hand was QQ and no action, made a couple moves, but no good. I made it through a third of the field, but it was boring and frustrating. At the Luxor I played the cash game, I got a ROYAL FLUSH. Odds = 1 in 30,940. I played a lot of negative equity games (exactly like I said I would NOT. I did real well in "Let it Ride", but shitty in most of the other games.

Saturday, September 30, 2006. It was a very fun night at our Poker game this week. Add two crazy dogs, a birthday, some beer, some of our regular players, and the Big-O founders and you will have some fun! Last night Stacey and I hosted: Armando, Clara, Diane, Michael, Henry, Carol, Cristine, Todd, Ian, and Joe. We fired up our Poker clock, courtesy of Stacey's Dad, Vince. He and I are in the pic below - in front of the greatest spot on earth. After the rebuy ended we had 8 add-ons. Three spots paid.

Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Tonight I met my fabulous wife and our friend Cristine to play a freerole NL Hold'em at Wings and Things. it's a very tough place to play. You need luck luck luck to even make the final table. You start with $1000 in chips, and the blinds start at 25/50 and double every 10 minutes. There are about 50 people playing and I have heard the following:. You can't go all-in if someone else does.". After the flop, "How come he gets three more cards and I don't get any?

Wednesday, July 26, 2006. Two in One Night. The Games began with Stacey back in town. The list of players were as follows Armando. Cristine, Joe, Kitty, Rico, Toby, Todd, Stacey, and me. Stacks to start were 15,000, with rebuys for the first hour (for stacks. Here's the math (I think, comment if it's inaccurate, as I said I am old, so maybe I forgot this stuff):. One of the best outcomes was that Armando's oldest and my daughter got to meet and hang out. They hit it off pretty well and are reportedly...

Sunday, October 22, 2006. The Departed - and breaking the bubble. Went to see the The Departed. Last night with Mook, MM, Henry, Carol, and my mobster wife mobster wife (LOL). It was a really great movie. Matt Damon and especially Jack Nicholsen were brilliant. DiCaprio took third. Played a great tourney at The Big-O. Later I had 36o in the SB with the blinds at 500/1000. There we six callers so I limped (13to1 on the call) an absolute no-brainer. BB didn't raise and the flop was 456. The turn was a 7 gi...

Thursday, November 30, 2006. We hosted during turkey weekend. We had 13 playas. Mookie and Mrs. Mookie, Mike B., Joanne, Rico, Todd, David (Armyman), Godfrey, Crisitine, Michael, Diane, my fabulous wife (kung-foo fighter = inside joke) and me. We needed to lose 3 for the final table. Unfortunately Diane, Rico, and David bombed out. When we took counts at the final table we were stacked as follows:. We played on and three were eliminated fairly quickly and we were down to 7. Well, we experienced. The flop...

Sunday, February 25, 2007. This was the last "downstairs" tourney as we have the Game Room almost complete. I have new poker tables being built and they should be ready for number 5. We had a repeat of last week as far as the number players, 17. We had a two players make their season debuts, Ian and Zack. The playas were as follows:. Zach was the first victim of the tournament. First time playing at our house, first one out. Will he be back? He's welcome, but time will tell. Stacey and Henry mixed it up&...
