Philly home game

I played in my weekly Phila home game in Chinatown last night. Due to inclement weather, not too many peeps showed up. We played two short-handed SNGs, winner take all. I was runner up in the first, got first in the second. Final hand of second game: I'm on the button with dueces so, of course, I go all in (blinds are ridiculously high at this point). Villian instacalls with 6-6. And, just as if I was playing on Pokerstars, I river the duece. It's always best on the river. Good game me. I'm really going to miss this homegame here in Philly. But I'm sure I will find some good ones in da CHI.

I just love pocket dueces preflop--it's a sniper hand if you can trip up. Quack Quack.

Birth of a new poker blogger

To all in cyberspace,

Greetings, and welcome to my new blog of all things me. This is going to be either stupid and short-lived, or REALLY stupid and VERY short-lived.

Ten things about me:

-In NJ now, but will move (back) to Chicago in May 2007.
-I'm a lawyer, husband, and father of two daughters.
-Love poker.
-I love AC, and will miss it dearly.
-I play at the lowest possible limits at Pokerstars' cash and SNGs.

Well, I guess I will just stop at five.

To those who can answer, am I an official poker blogger now?

Holla back!
