The 100 Heads Up Challenge Results

I finally finished my 100 Heads Up Match Challenge. Although the wins exceeded the losses (52 wins versus 48 losses), I ended up with a loss of $5.00. I will just chuck it up to practice for my first HU match against a pro. In case you didn't hear, I beat Gavin Smith in a HU match for a $100 donation to charity. That was sweet!

Now I'm not sure if my mind is cloudy because of too much alcohol, but as I recall, one other interesting thing happened at the Bash.

Al and Gavin were lifting up their shirts and flashing their chests in front of me. Now, if a guy is gonna expose his nipples within arms distance of me, you can be sure of one thing, they are gonna get pinched. So I pinched both of their nipples. What I didn't expect was what happened next. THEY PINCHED BACK! Each of them pinched one of my boobs. That is probably the closest I will come to a threesome in my life..hmmm..or is it..lol

Now as for Saturday night, yes, I did play a HU match against my buddy Drizz.

While were chatting it up with Mr. Speaker, I took him up on his offer to play HU with the condition that he pick the game. His game of choice was a PLO8 match. What a mistake for me. I think it took only 2 hands for Drizz to whip me. The hand that did me in was a KJ with a flop giving me two pair and the 2nd high straight. We got into a little raise/reraise battle and once we were all in, I was disappointed to see that I was facing the nut straight..doh! My suckout powers failed again. Congrats Drizz!

Lastly, I finally beat TraumaPoker. Yeah! I can't tell you how good it felt to have a victory here. Thanks Trauma for giving me the opportunity to win one. You will never be undefeated against me again..hehe.

Hasta luego...

Dream Big!

I'm staying in Pismo Beach this weekend and loving it. California beaches are awesome! Just walking on the shoreline, smelling the sea air, hearing the waves roll onto the beach, is like a slice of heaven to me. So relaxing and peaceful.

It is especially nice after having a difficult week. A combination of being sick with the flu all week and handling the stream of drama and emotion from my oldest daughter, who is releasing the anger and frustration she feels while dealing with the many changes in our family life.

This trip is a retreat for MK consultants. When I first started my business, it was while I was still living with EM. Trying to sell our home. Moving. Craziness. So my focus was on different things. I took that time to go the the meetings for training. I held one class and had some individual appointments and sells, but I was not putting a lot of effort into it.

Last weekend, I held my "debut" party at my appartment. Even though I still had a few boxes not unpacked, the place has come together enough that I will allow others to come visit. The class went well. And I actually had 3 people sign-up as consultants and one more seriously thinking about it. So WOO HOO...I have the beginnings of my own team. In addition, I had about $400 in sales.

All the recent changes in my life have forced me to alter the dreams that I had of my future. Ending my marriage, losing my home, changes in friendships, and other changes have created a need to find a way to build a better life.

So what are my Big Dreams?

-To have a home again, a Beach House!

-To have a job where I am able to have the flexibility for my kids and the events in their lifes.

-To love what I do.

-And yes, I even want the pink Catillac!


I am ready now to commit to this business and make it into something that enables me to acheive my dreams...just watch me!

I have poker updates too...but those are gonna wait. They only thing I want to mention is that I finally fixed the HU chart with Meek on it and Peak. Sorry guys for taking so long to make corrections.

Take care all...and take time to dream.....

Climb a Peak

I actually took some time to chat and play poker tonight. Steve introduced me to two new bloggers PokerPeaker and donnie. It was fun to chat it up with you guys. I've been a bit out of control with my comments lately, so I hope you guys will respect me in the morning. Drizz joined us too and offered some rather interesting suggestions to assist me with current lack of certain attentions.

If you would like to see a picture of a good-looking guy climbing a peak, go check out Peak's blog. He is a new blogger, so hit him up with some traffic.

Tonight he got to face the Poison in a HU match. After a while of going at it, he raised me preflop and I pushed with AT. You know me...I just love to push it all in..anyway, he had the nerve to call me with AJ...lol...Nice job Peak. Congrats on your win!

Tomorrow I get my girls after a week without them...I can't wait.

It's great to be back hanging in the chat and playing some poker!

I still owe you guys some more fantastic pictures from the BASH and details of my experience..but let me just say this...

His arms felt perfect when they were wrapped around my waist. And when I looked into his amazing eyes, I knew he was pleased to be close to me. This would be the night. I knew it would be wonderful. It would be worth sacrificing the $20 bucks I paid for the beer pong. We found a private spot outside under a tree..there was a bench..the night air was fitting for the moment..and in the moonlight..this first kiss was just as sweet as I thought it would be...

More Boys, Boys, Boys, Yeah!!!

- Our awesome Host and organizer of the BASH! Thanks Al, you are the best!

- No blogger event would be complete without the charming Mr. Speaker. I missed the flashing of his chest (really bummed on that one!)...Gracie, How could you not call me?

- And if you haven't looked into this blogger's eyes, you are missing a thing of beauty...fire and ice...wow!

Boys, Boys, Boys...Yeah!

If there had been a BASH prize for giving hugs, that title would go to yours truly. What can I say? I like hugging. And more importantly, I love hugging all the good-looking blogger guys!

Just look at these cuties....get ready to be jealous girls...

- I finally found a way to get Falgstaff without a finger in the air, get him from behind..lol

- I had a great time playing with F-train for our friday night event. Guess who took this Blogger Champ down? Beware of the Poison Dave!

- Wow..I don't know about his Junk, but I like the rest. Bobby is hot!!

- Rock hard! A sweetie and a HUNK combined...just deadly!

- The Wolf doesn't bite. He is a cupcake. I even got rewarded with a cool shirt from Drew (yes I finally remembered) when I he tried to drop the hammer on me!

- Mr. Luckbox lives up to his name and wins the Charity Event. Maybe one day we can get him to drink some SoCo shots and get really lucky...haha

Boys, Boys, Boys...Yeah!

The Bash was a Blast

I'm still recovering from the long flight, lack of sleep, and effects of mucho mucho alchol consumption at the one and only BASH at the boathouse.

For links to blogs of BASH attendees go to www.boathousebash.blogspot.com

I really think the pictures say it all, so here are a few for your enjoyment. In addition, I have uploaded quite a few already to flickr.com with the tag Bash2006.

Drizz (Dave) is awesome! He let me use his Ipod during the friday night event. After I busted him in the friday night event, he was still willing to join up with the other Dave (F-train) to make a Dave and V sandwich..lol



"I'm sooo cool! I need sunglasses to play poker with bloggers. But it is only to conceal my goregous eyelashes."

"Oops..Did I really just land a bunch of chips in my drink?"

My fabulous room mate for the weekend!

Blogger chat pals finally meet.

"Check this out.."

Okay...I have lots more to add...but it takes forever with my connection...I will add a few a day...got lots more..

Bash Pictures

I'm having a great time!!!!!

Let me show you...

Upon arrive in Philly, I called Al to find out the plan for my shuttle to the Boathouse. BadBlood was arriving on a flight shortly after my arrival and would be my ride. So I went to the baggage area to await his arrival. My instruction was to look for a bald guy. Iggy gave a little better description telling me to look for a bald muscular guy who was a hunk. Once I found him, along with Drizz, I would have to agree with Iggy, he is a HUNK!



After the longest wait ever for a rental car (over an hour), we were on our way to the Boathouse. Ready for drinks and food!

One of the bloggers that I most wanted to meet was Tripjax. He was ready and waiting to greet us at the Boathouse upon our arrival. We definitely had some catching up to do. Trip was waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy ahead of us in the drinking category.






I broke the blogger tradition and ordered a half dozen tequila shots. F-train and Al refused, so I changed their shots to the traditional SoCo.



And so the night continued...

Then to poker...



More to come later...gotta get Kat some coffee!

BASH...Here I come...

I am sitting at the airport waiting for my flight to Philly! Finally, I will have some leisure time. No unpacking, no laundry, no dishes, no homework, no WORK, only fun, fun, and more fun! Well, that is my agenda at least.

It is gonna be great to meet so many of the bloggers that I have been chatting with over the last year.

Unfortunately, I did not prepare properly for this event. Al told me to drink everyday....oops! I am fully expecting to get sick. But before sickness....hmmmmmmmm...what will happen?

I've already lined up two bloggers for body shots. The first with Slb159, he has offerred himself up with no restrictions..haha...Al on the other hand, told me he would not let me suck anything off his body, so it will only be one way. Yeah...you guys are getting jealous now right? ....say yes..even if it isn't true.

I'm feeling good. Ready for adventure....

And don't worry. For those who are not able to make it, I brought my new digital camera. If you email me your phone number, I would be willing to do dial-a-shots. Might as well maximize the sacrifice my body is gonna make.

MUAHA...that is a big kiss to all!!!!

No Time for Poker

Things that are preventing me spending leisure time at the online poker tables…

1) On the weekdays when I have the kids, my daily commute has increased by about 1 hour making the total time that I spend on the road almost 4 hours on those days.
2) Then there are those EXTRA trips that needed to be made because something has been forgotten at my place.
3) Preparing to get the kids to school. Shopping for clothes, supplies, etc.
4) STILL unpacking…it is endless… At the end of the move, I had to just throw things in bags to deal with later. So I continue to sort, organize, and put away.
5) New things to do…laundry, housekeeping, meals…Yes, there were some perks to having the in-laws live with us. If my apartment were in better shape I could hire someone for cleaning. That is on my list once things are in order. I’ve also given much consideration to paying for my laundry to be cleaned. There is no washer/dryer in my apartment, so I used the community facility to do laundry for the first time this weekend. Nine loads!!!!!!! I was procrastinating. And for good reason. It was a horrid experience…uuuuggggggggghhhhhhhhhh. I think I am gonna hate this most. The thought of washing my clothes in a shared facility is already a turn-off, but having people in/out seeing my undergarments…not appealing….
6) Shopping for household supplies…it seems I needed lots of things that I didn’t get in the split of stuff. Daily silverware, iron, ironing board, laundry basket, lamps, light bulbs, hamper, brooms, mops, trash can…etc.
7) Family functions like Mom’s birthday party last Saturday night. She had about 70 people. I did have a nice time singing and relaxing.
8) Going to church. Although I missed this last weekend. I’ve been going more regularly again. I’m sure I need it!
9) Trying to help my kids adjust with the changes. They finally did start pressing for more answers as to why we are getting a divorce. And want me to go back with their Dad. Not easy...but I’m listening and doing my best…

The good news is that I have been making time to join High Plain’s weekly Sunday night tournament. Last week was RAZZ. I didn’t money. But I did really enjoyed the company as always. Again, how can I go wrong being the only woman with a bunch of young, smart, good-looking, and fun guys? And it makes for a nice ending to my full weekly schedule. This week HP got pretty blitzed. He is always friendly and fun to hang out with. But I must say that he is much more entertaining when under the influence!!! I even got a friendly back massage…woo hoo!! It was no big deal, but these days just a touch from a guy is a little exciting.

My phone has become my lifeline. If it were not for my friends who keep me company via phone during my many travels, I’m sure I would be going crazy. But I’m sooo screwed over the next few days, cause I’m at my limit for peak time minutes…oh noooooooooooooo!

I have treated myself to a few things….

1) A new digital camera…yes, WeakPlayer, I’m thinking of you…and baking cookies…I actually could not dream of attending the upcoming BASH without a digital camera. I made the mistake of going to Del Mar without one and I so regretted that.
2) Keith Urban CD’s…one thing I’m really enjoying is being about to listen to music at home. Previously, my home life only allowed for the constant noise of the TV. I love music. Singing, listening, and dancing. All of it. And yes, my favorite is Country Music. Keith is awesome…hmmmmmmm…If a guy sang his songs to me, he would own my heart.
3) A body pillow...I LIKE!!

I made some updates to my top ten list. There is one blogger who should have been on this list all along. I know...I'm a little slow sometimes..but I must say that his postings are terrific. He does a fabulous job of providing us with a real feel for poker events. But what really turned me on was the photos at the WSOP. ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! I love pictures. Thanks Pauly for getting GREAT poker action shots. For explaining the moment. For taking pictures of GUY players. Not just more useless pictures of hotties with barely any clothing. I'm a fan!!!

I also included the new blogging maniac Slb159. And to think we to push him to start the damn thing!

One day I will have time again to do these things….

1) Entice Duggle to sweat me into going deep on a final table again
2) Team up with Steve to easily slide into a token on Full Tilt
3) Skype with the clever chatty Iggy
4) Lick my lips as I unleash my poison to finish off the Luckbox in our HU match
5) Engage in uninhibited smack talk with the mighty HighonPoker
6) Hunt down the Hoy till he cries "I surrender" in one of the MATH events
7) Torment and Tilt Waffles at a cash game in 15 minutes or less
8) Play SNG’s with Gordo as he sings his "Somebody rivered me again" tune
9) Pound down a few dial-a-shot’s with Al
10) Smooth talk Surflexus into serenading me with his deep and wonderful voice
11) Join Kat in flirting with Garth till he passes out
12) Tease Tripjax about how he tortures me with all his sexy girly photos
13) Watch Wes Whip some royal butt in a Deep Stack MTT
14) Get Soxlover all worked up by sucking out with a hand he can't fathom
15) Drool over Mr. Dreamy after he invites me to a ring game and takes all my $
15) Kick some new blogger’s fine ass in HU so I retain my Poisonous image

Until then, know that I’m okay and thinking of you all……….

By the way, this month marks my one year anniversary of blogging...Thanks for stopping by my site.....

Happy Birthday Steve!

Steve, otherwise known as Slb159, deserves a special birthday wish! As a newer blogger, he has embraced the community with open arms. In child like fashion, he is enthusiasic and excited when bloggers engage and chat with him. So on this special day of his, I hope you will join me in giving him the attention that he welcomes.

Have a fantastic Birthday Steve!
