National Heads Up Championship

This weekend was so much fun......the Heads Up Championship was taking place and I had pokernews.com on getting updates starting on Friday. Of course, not the same as watching but keeping track of the whole thing and ending with the Sunday night final between Vanessa and Huck. Of course, it was great to see Vanessa making it that far and I was really torn because I wanted to see a woman win it but at the same time, Huck is one of my favorites. Either way it is good for poker and it will be create higher visibility for women in this community.

Now.......the second part of the fun is reading all the blogs and hearing all the trash talk starting with the roster being announced to the end of the final table. This was such great fodder for the gossip mill........sort of like all the hype with the Super Bowl (well maybe not that big) and this year it was great that the excitement kept going through the entire event.

The great comic relief was the Layne Flack debacle.......did not show up for his round and was replaced.....then word was he was arrested for DUI and then he posted a message that he was innocent and was contradicted by a friend who said on his blog that he was out drinking with Layne.......the saga continues.

I can hardly wait for the NBC coverage and the updates online just made me want more.......and the blogs and online posts on the different sites were quite predictable and at the same time there were enough clever nuggets that it made me laugh.......bottom line is the haters will still hate but there is enough enlightenment to keep it interesting.

trying to improve my habits

Have not posted to the blog since starting in November. I have a challenge from pokerslave to post every day. I just don't have that much to say but think that I will try to do better with the blog and also try to improve my poker habits.

We are working to get the website up and running and slave has worked very hard on that. I am getting ready to play a tournament and will try to be patient and pay more attention than usual.

We'll se where it goes...........
