Granted, the $1.20 I won won't cover much in the way of a funeral, but now I can retire from poker with the best of 'em.
Update: I did it again, on 23 March 2006, and never got around to uploading it.

I can die now.

Karina, Karina
Ever have one of those new years days where you meet two girls named Karina within 8 hours of each other, one from Russia by way of Israel, and the other from Romania by way of Cleveland? Maybe it's just me.
Anyway, I rang in the new year the cheap way, in the casino, so instead of paying to drink I got paid. It was a tour de force the whole way, and after starting at noon, I wasn't back up to even again until about ten, and finally ended the day up $100 one hour into 2006. I took Sunday off, but found my way back there on Monday and won an additional $177.50 in five hours.
I played another 380+ hands at Full Tilt yesterday, and ended up down $10. This isn't as bad as it sounds, since I had rotten cards most of the time, and stood a great chance of losing significantly more. I'll be happy to break even on days with bad luck, as long as I can get paid on the good days (like Monday).
The single worst play I've witnessed in my hold 'em career showed up last night. The flop was KKA, then another king showed up on the turn. I didn't follow the action to this point, but the bottom line is two people made it to the river, which was another K. So the board is four of a kind, kings, with an ace kicker. Just as a joke, the first player bet a dollar, and her opponent folded. I guess he was afraid of a fifth king, or maybe he thought she had three pocket aces.
