About Me

I like to eat. I like to travel. I hate sleep. Poker!!!

"I think that our world would be a much more peaceful, content, less stife-filled place if everyone would start their day by listening to the Wonder Woman theme song, putting on some tin foil bracelets and spinning around a few times. I think there'd actually be an end to war within hours."--Chriso (of the EX-BF's)

My Interests

I'm a texas hold'em poker addict. My life as of late practically revolves around it. I probably spend an average of at least 15-20 hours a week playing in Sit n Go's or tournaments online or locally somewhere.

I'd like to meet:

William Shatner.

Music:

My car's CD player doesn't work anymore so you'll probably catch me listening to my iPod while I'm out wasting gas I can't afford. KUT NPR channel usually plays really nice stuff around 12-3AM.

Movies:

I use Netflix so I don't go out to the theater very often anymore :(

Television:

I love watching Deal or No Deal right now. Writer's strike sucks.

Books:

If you want to make money the "easy" way, read these two books! Doyle Brunson's Super System and Phil Gordon's Little Green Book both are excellent and will teach you how to spank at the tables.

Heroes:

Mom.

Abilene Poker Tournament!

So I went today, played, and just got back...with a fat nothing to show for. It really sucks to have played 10 excellent weeks for a poker league, only to somehow run dry at the final. ...
