Each year I attend the Macworld Conference and Expo in San Francisco, CA. On the flight home, we try and schedule a long layover in Las Vegas, NV. This year is no different. I’ll be landing in Vegas on Friday, January 18th at 10:16pm and flying out on Saturday, January 19th at 9:25am. The past [...]

Ocean's 13
June 26, 2007 – 9:08 am
I really enjoyed Ocean’s Eleven when it came out and thought Ocean’s Twelve was good too. So when I saw Ocean’s 13 was next in line I knew I’d have to see it.
Went last night with Tom because it was too damn hot to do anything else around the house or outside. We both enjoyed [...]
Poker At the Taj
August 20, 2004 – 5:03 am
It’s almost 5 a.m. and we just got back from Atlantic City! I played a $100 poker tournament at the Taj Mahal and I lasted just over an hour and a half. I won hands with QQ, suited AK, and then I had to go all-in with suited A7 because my blinds were coming around [...]
Beat Me Up!
July 4, 2004 – 12:25 pm
Happy 4th of July! It’s raining here in good old northern Michigan so it looks like we’ll be stuck in the house all day. Dad is deep frying a turkey and we might have a little Texas Hold’em tournament on Isaac’s new poker table. He built it with one of his friends and it’s pretty [...]
To Tip Or Not To Tip…The Dealer
July 2, 2004 – 8:24 am

A Winning Night
April 11, 2004 – 1:04 am
Mom and I went up to the Kewadin Casino in St. Ignace for the night. We got there around 3:30, but the poker room didn’t open until 4:00, so I had a seat at the bar to watch the Red Wings and have a beer. After awhile I finally decided to check out the poker [...]
Poker Room Terminology
March 14, 2004 – 6:32 pm
While playing poker at a casino for the first time I learned a lot of new poker terminology. Maybe this will benefit others before they play in a poker room for their first time.
The Trip
March 14, 2004 – 6:14 pm
Sorry for the lack of postings this past week, but I didn’t have Internet access readily available. With that said, here is how the week went…
On Sunday, we (mom went with) took off for Detroit around 10 a.m. We had a connecting flight in Chicago and ended up landing in San Diego at about 6 [...]
