mookie99

It’s only been a few days but feels much longer since my last post. There really hasn’t been much to write about since I haven’t played any poker online lately. Well that and I’ve been trying to avoid being online much so that I don’t read about the big Vegas gathering. Jealous. I know everyone will have a great time and I’m looking forward to all the trip reports and pictures from the weekend.

Tonight is The Mookie and I hope to see everyone that’s still around there tonight. BrainMc is the defending champ and once again I’m looking for a guest blogger to tackle the live blogging. Past guests have been smokkee and Waffles. If you are interested leave me a comment and I’ll hook you up with a login.

Also on tap for tonight is the The Mookie – 2nd Chance tournament that starts at 10:30PM CT (same password). This week we’re trying something new…Turbo Razz. If this works out we’ll add it to the 2nd Chance rotation permanently.

*** LIVE BLOGGING *** with props to the original and best…Dr. Pauly

1:30 PM CT … Already the excitement is building for the 2nd Chance Turbo Razz tourney tonight…

smokkee…”TURBO RAZZ LMAQ”

Mondogarage…”So the blinds/antes go up every hand, or better yet…on each street. LOL. Someone should create some rules for turbo triple draw, or something.”

Drizz…”Luckily I hate money enough to want to play.”

2:00 … Even more feedback from the peanut gallery..hehe….

JoeSpeaker…”They have something called the “Turbo Razz” in West Hollywood (available in your finest back-alleys), but it costs $75 so I think it’s different.”

2:30 … And more…

Falstaff…”No, Joe, that’s the same Turbo Razz as in West Hollywood. FTP will ship the toothless hooker to your house upon start of the tourney, complete with 17 Pixie Sticks, a roll of Duct Tape, Quart of Crisco, Toaster Oven and XXXL Nipple Clamps.

You must provide your own 8-week old male goat, however.”

2:45 … Waffles asked if Full Tilt really offered “Turbo Razz”. I sent an email to confirm, here is the reply:

Hello,

Yes we do offer Razz with this structure, your tournament was created with this structure. If you wish to confirm you can go to your tournament lobby and double click on the prizes/structure link and see that there are 5 minute levels.

Thank you
Jose
Team Full Tilt

11:42 … Finally another knockout…JJ’s QQ is good against GScott’s KQ. Bubble time !!! I’m the shorty. They have compassion on the donkey and are saving a little for 6th.

11:46 … I go out in a blaze of donkiness pushing my remaining crumbs in with The Hammer…columbo’s A4 flushes me down the drain. 5 left and all ITM. JJ, columbo, xkm1245, rmbj494 and NewinNov.

11:50 … Waffles is kicking ass in the 2nd Chance…4 left with 3 spots paying.

11:51 … NewinNov flops a straight and sends xkm1245 out in 5th place. NewinNov has the chiplead with 25K. Very next hand columbo’s AK holds up against rmbj494 and we are down to 3. JJ – 29K, Newin – 26K and columbo – 12K.
