mookie99

Another Wednesday…another Mookie. Newcomer mtnrider81 won the title last week on his first try and NewinNov was the bounty hunter winning the easiest bounty in poker…mine. The Mookie curse is still alive as NewinNov fell a little short of winning the tournament. So just remember the curse when you think about calling my all in with a junk hand like KQ, KJ or even AA.

I’ll offer up the same easy ol’ bounty again this week…knock me out and you’ll win yourself a banner for your blog or $11. Simple stuff.

For the 2nd Chance tournament, mtnrider81 has selected Razz (Turbo) which is always fun. Both tournaments are on Full Tilt (which just rolled out resizable tables) and the main event kicks off at 9:00pm and the 2nd Chance starts at 10:30pm. The password for both is vegas1.

Over the last few weeks we have slowly built our crowd back up a little so lets keep the momentum going. I hope to see everyone there tonight.

A prop bet question for all you short-haired guys…Would you grow your hair out like this for $1,000 ? If not, how much would it take? More on this later.

Thanks to Drizz and Derek I’ll be humming this little diddy all day long and at the Mookie tonight while reading Pauly’s Pokernews coverage of the Monte Carlo event.
