I have nothing to say... are you interested?

Didn't realize that I haven't posted in almost a month.  Poker hasn't been real exciting for me lately.  Feel like I'm in a bad mind set when it comes to poker.  I have a desire to play more than ever but haven't been able to which is frustrating.

Home League Update:
So, since the last post we had Event #10 of the home league.  It was an interesting one.  One guy was unable to attend so we blinded him out and he actually took 3rd place.  These are the rules we set forth prior to starting so these are the rules we will keep, I see no issue with it, personally.  There are a few ways to look at it:

1. Having someone not show increases my odd's of placing higher in the bracket, this is a good thing for me and everyone else.  Although it didn't appear that way last month, I do believe this is the case.
2. Having this knowledge moving forward, it does give confidence that if it is required to miss a date, it's not as bad as it might appear, as placing higher than 9th is surely the case.

Losers:
I scheduled a Tournament and Cash game for last Friday night.  Honestly, I am not sure why it's so hard to get a home game going, seems to be difficult for many people, including me.  I had 8 RSVP's a week in advance, and was excited about it.  Then at the 11th hour two people cancelled.  Now, this tells me a few things:

1. Either something more exciting came up last minute, or
2. This person is a complete loser.

From personal experience, I would bet $1K it's #2.  I decided to cancel the game as I do not enjoy playing short handed. 

Tunica Trip:
Took a trip to Tunica on Saturday in hopes of getting my poker appetite fulfilled yet left hungrier than ever.  I was in Tunica for about 16 hours and only got to play about 3 hours in total.  Just enough to rise my frustration level to EXTREME capacity.    I played one hand so badly that I am frankly embarrashed to even give details.  Needless to say, I'm still thinking about that hand and might still be on tilt from it.

WSOP Main Event:
Not sure if anyone has been getting updates on the final table but they played for over 17 hours on Saturday with a total of 14 hours and 30 minutes at the table before they finally got down to heads up; Moon and Cada.  The oldest and youngest of the final table goes head to head.

I get twitter updates from WSOP with hold card hand for hand updates.  I can't believe how many bad beats where handed out at the final table, leaving both HU players taking their positions by pure luck of the cards.  At one point Cada was down to 2 million now he has 158 million and getting crazy one outers to get there.

Ivey went out 7th when his AK against Moon's AQ and a Q came on the flop.  Ivey didn't improve and it's all done.  I really wanted this guy to win the thing.  He really is one of the best players to ever play the game.  It's reported he was on Full Tilt hours after playing $2k/$4k NL.  Maybe he was still on tilt?

ESPN Coverage of Main Event:

So we have the longest final table in history taking place and ESPN has 2 hours MAX to cover it.  We get 24 hours of ESPN coverage showing various hands over 8 days and nearly 6500 players and then when we get to the top 9 players we get to only see 1% of the hands in play.  I don't like this.  The longer the final table plays out, the more I dislike this format.  All televised WPT events are only of the final table.  All WSOP televised events are only of the final table.  Why not show us 26 hour total of the final table instead of 2 hours??  Personally, I think I would get more enjoyment out of this format.

What's Next:

Who the fuck knows, roll the dice and see. 

PEACE!
