Stranger

Hi, I'm a complete stranger, who was just cruising blogs when I stumbled into your site. I was wondering if you all would mind if me and my buddies use this site for OUR games seeings as how you guys don't. Your using cyber space up, just wasting it, its BLANK, Its like sitting in the roller coaster at the top of the ride and NEVER going...just sitting there...wasting the ride. So OK if we use it ? I'm prepared to wait the several weeks its going to take for a response. O.K. ?

I Don't know who this scary guy is...just ignor it...like you do this site.

New Sheriff

Day Be A New Sheriff In Town !!!!!! Z Dog Rules. Long Live Z Dog !!!!!!

The Final Table

The excitment is palpable, the fianl table has been set. Nine players will advance to the big showdown. The point totals are locked in, the pot sizes are set, everything is written in stone and can't be changed; unless something drastic happens such as someone not showing up.

Save the Date

When is the final game? The 18th seems like the logical choice, but the Ladies are planning a Christmas party that night.

Redemption!!

The fellas brought home a win, mostly thanks to Jeremy. At least for now the Ladies' have been put in their place. Which is somewheres near the kitchen. I'm not going to say they belong in the kitchen, that would be rude and stereotyping. I'm just saying they are in their place and that place may or may not the same room as the sink and stove.

Well what can be said ? That very slippery fourth victory, IN A ROW, eluded our Zdog. An early burst of chips made for a exciting nano second. But,,,,well it didn't happen. With only 2 more tourney games it would appear the record is safe for another year. I checked the standings after our marathon and I noticed I'm crushing Smokey. By approx. 0.15 points....insurmountable. By the way, other than the rather entertaining side effects of Smokey's chili, it was also extremely appetizing. Thank you Smoke. B.O., who FINALLY won a tourney night also contributed a fine load of ribs...thanks B.O.. Poo, who once again proved to be the best in the world, SUCKED OUT on more hands than even HE can remember so up yours Poo. Looking forward to m the big one.

From gary...........

This must be a very exciting time for our fellow competitor Zdog.  He is on the verge of a momentous, monumental, potential life changing event.  Sleep must be hard to come by, pooping solid is a thing of his past.  Still four days to go.  I'm concerned about our hard driving compadre Zdog's health.  These visions of grandeur, these day dreaming fantasies of a winning moment can only lead to disastrous depths of depression when not achieved.   Four wins in a row, how can he do it ?    Eight mean fire red eyed savages crouched and ready to leap at any sign of weakness in his game.   This is a DOUBLE tourney day, dare he add the possibility of setting a NEW record.  OOOOH the humanity of it all. 

Let the games begin...

Ideas for next year

Here are some of the ideas we talked about for next year.

Change the Inital buy-in to $10 and allow 2 $10 rebuys per night.
A few extra rebuys per year -points to use them
Bonus Points if you don't use them
Blinds  were either the same or somtheing similar to how it is now

please comment on your feelings or suggestions
