checking in

Boy this sure has been a busy few weeks for me. Have had to do 3 major jobs at the shop..one cookbook order and two fundraisers for the schools. Its been great, but alot of work. Our high school year book committee is selling bumper stickers, address labels, stationary, etc. to raise money, and working with the teens has been a blast. They should be getting all their orders ready by the end of the month, so the first of September should be booming too.

Been busy playing poker too! Have won a couple, lost a lot, and placed in a few others. I'd like to report I've struck it rich this month, but that would be so far from the truth that it would be laughable. Got on a bad streak last week, and couldn't seem to hardly get a hand, but at least that seems to have taken a break. Am getting ready to play in a tourny on Hollywood here in a few minutes.

We had a private freeroll on betfred last night, but I wasn't able to play since my husband had guests over for dinner. I'd like to congratulate the winners! Several new members to the forum placed right on up there, including the 1st place finisher Joseppi, who seems to be a neat person, and is contributing quite a bit to the forum.

I am anxiously waiting for the league tourney on Friday nite, so far I'm still sticking in there in the #4 position, so I hope I can hold out til the final table. Of course then, I will more than likely go down in flames, but I intend to give it a heck of a try!

Well, guess I'm out of here for now. Talk to everyone later, and take care! Try to avoid this nasty heat!

Just stopped by to say hi!

Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Tina, but most just call me Grannygrump. I have 4 children (1 girl, and 3 boys)...my daughter has my very first and precious grandson, William! The boys better wait a few years before I get any from them...they are all teenagers! I live in a small rural area is Southern Missouri (the Ozarks). Beautiful country! I have been married for a bit over 20 years to my wonderful hubby Sam. I own a small print business which gives me lots of opportunities to pursue other areas of interest (poker).

I joined Freerollerz.com a while back and absolutely love the site! Betty and Holis have been great and I have made several friends and like the community atmosphere! I became a moderator a week or so ago to help them out with our growing community. Hope I can help them make it the ultimate site for poker info! If any of you out there haven't been over to check us out, now is as good of time as any...we welcome you!

Until later, have a good one! And remember to be nice to little old ladies you meet at the poker tables!

Well dam I missed it. and could not chat wth players. we had 1 player wth 4 post play and 1 wth 0 post . Guess someone is still sharing the passwords, Hope Holis didn't pay them b4 looking. cause they don't deserve it.

Bicycle Casino's Legends of Poker

Bicycle Casino's Legends game was on last night. and it was great . Doyle is just the greatest player ever. How does he read a player the way he does. He no's where to hold'em and no's when to fold'em. I was so excited for him when he won the games. just waited for Lee to ge allin . and called with the pr of Q's . 71 and he sd he is having trouble sitting there for so long.

another bad day at poker

Well yesterday , I disided to put $50 in at AP since hubby is on fishing trip. Just to have something to do. Well played several sit&go's never won one. I mean my cards where not that bad. I had a boat a few times and got beat with a bigger boat. What can I say for the month of JULY I have not did good at all. I sure hope Aug. will bring me some luck.

passwords

Well we had another freeroll at CD tonight , and it went real well. But after is was over found out that some players are giving out passwords. Had 3 people that got in the money and was not even register to our forum.
Don't our forum players no that they are hurting there self my giving away the password to a private freeroll. I don know If it was caught in time for the Administrator to not have to pay them. I sure hope so. Holis is gonna be peeved and I don't blame him.

Our winners of the 1st league game ,

Trident poker league

We had our 1st League game tonight . Well I did not get to play in it. and could not even chat. Well everyone one I talked to after the game sd Try really enjoyed there self.

I am not sure why it did not work for me , It would not even show me my cards. I spoke with Mike one of the sponcers for Trident and he asured me I would be able to play. I will need to get back in touch with him. Really hated to miss the 1st game. Hope I can get in the others.

heat

Forgot to mention that the heat has beeb real bad, fel for people that don't have air conditioning , Yesterday a 3yr old was playing in back yard and he got into a car back there and died from the overwelming heat. Take it easy and keep a see on your kids playing outside.

bad storms

Well we had some really bad storms late night. got up today and internet was down cable was down. But it is finally up now. Was thinking I wouldn't be able to play in the league game starting tonight at Trident. And I hope the cards have changed a bit for me today. Havn't been to any sites yet to see if I can get good hands , Just going to wait til tonight.

bad day at poker

Well today was offically one of the worse poker days I have had. In 2 sit&go and 1 tourney. and no matter what I had I got beat. Str8 they had higher, same wth flush. or ever 3 of a Kind. So just had to finally give up and call it a day. Come to think of it this whole week has been a bad one. Got beat on the river so many times it was unreal. Not goning to play real money the rest of the week. Just freerolls , see if I can get my cards to change.

i agree with you on the growing

I very much agree with Holis on our forum growing very nicely . I think he has some help from his wife. HA HA .. We have some great changes on the forum (for the better). I still want more smileys .. I have been looking on internest for some great news about poker. I did find the "quotes" from the editors about poker . sounds like to me they are a little jealous. They keep saying poker in not a sport , SO , who cares .It is very intertaining to watch.

freeroll forum growing nicely

Well we are growing nicely and I hope it continues...

I tried to add a script today to the boards that would give us some arcade games functionality but it did not work as planned so I removed it.

I am thankful for betty being around, shes doing a great job with the moderating of the forums.

as an aside, kids grow up so fast. Im sitting here looking at my 1st born (almost taller than me now) going on 14 and I cant believe how time flies.

I only wish my father had gotten me interested in poker at his age, I would probably be in a different place right now :)
