Chinese Poker vs. Copenhagen

Instead of getting ready for the Copenhagen/Amsterdam trip that I'm leaving for on Wednesday, I've been spending a lot of time these past two days playing Chinese Poker. Gianna got me turned on to it. I can't help myself, now... it's my new obsession. I've been playing it for play money on PokerRoom.com. The game is just too cool for school.

Actually, I think it's a game worth learning... every time I hit one of the big tournaments, I see a few big names playing it for huge stacks of cash somewhere in the corner. Seems to be pretty simple to pick up, but I'm sure there is some depth to it. If anyone knows of a good strategy site, comments would be appreciated.

Realized how much I've been slacking on my email. Just replied to about four days worth. I'm going to be gone from Wednesday until the 10th of February. Probably will schedule some more auctions while I'm away, as I'm trying to sell around 50% of myself and so far the 25% auction hasn't gotten any bites. Going to be closing around the same time I'm on a plane to Amsterdam. I'd have thought that offering the logo wear for an ESPN televised event might have induced some action, but no bids yet. Who knows, though... those eBay auctions only start to get crazy the day it closes. I'm crossing my fingers. I've been in touch with most of the winners of the ten or so 1% auctions that have closed. If you haven't heard from me, just try to be patient because I'm juggling a lot in the next couple of days. We'll get everything sorted out well before the WSOP Circuit event.

Also crossing my fingers for Gianna while she plays the EPT event in Copenhagen. It's going to be crazy out there. She'll be the one with punkrock LA style, sexy-as-all-hell, check-raising the living daylights out of all those european players. Going to be a good time regardless of how she places, but man... could you imagine if the girl wins it? And it's a possibility, because the woman's got game. I'll try to post some pictures of her in the tourney.

After the tournament is over, we're going to be spending about a week in Amsterdam. I've never been to Europe before, so I'm really looking forward to the trip. Marcel Luske and Noah "Exclusive" Boken are both out there in Amsterdam, and Noah promised to show us some cool things while we're out there.

If you don't hear from me for about two weeks, don't fret. I'm off adventuring...

Nice that this POS is gallivanting around the world spending mine and others money with no plans to pay anything back that he stole. I will have him in handcuffs shortly!

Who would waste their money on that auction? It's interesting how he said he would play bad and people have actually bid, lol.

Sarcasm is wasted on the mindless brainwashed poker groupies.

Does anyone here really think that Dutch will pay his backers should he get lucky once again. This BOY belongs in jail where he will learn the meaning of the axiom: "he who TAKES what isn't his'n, MUST pay it back or go to prison". I have filed a formal complaint with the internet fraud unit of the FBI, they have assured me that that will arrest Russ for wire fraud the next time he shows his pretty face at a US casino. I have given him time to make ammends, because he is a sociopath he doesn't get it, soon he will.

That doesn't make any sense. If they wanted to arrest him, why wouldn't they just go to his house. What does a casino have anything to do with it?

Please, you all, ignore all Neal Ross comments. Neal Ross fancies himself a media whore, but he really is just a guy with too much time on his hands and a very empty bottle of viagra. He's angry right now that his doctor can't fill that perscription anymore
