Spice plus Sports equals Pokerpeaker

I'd be Sporty Spice.


If I have to explain why, you obviously haven't read this blog much.

Plus she was a lesbian. Maybe. So we have those two things in common.

That's enough for me.


Question of the day: I've been playing these $8 beginner tournaments at Bodog to help clear my bonus while I'm two-tabling. Basically it pays five spots instead of three. I've been crushing them. I am not a pro, but I'm not a beginner either. So at times I feel like Kramer beating up all the kids in his karate class on "Seinfeld."
My question is, does that make me a bad person?

Very bad. Very bad, indeed.

No sir, it makes you an opportunist, which are neither good, nor bad, but just sleazy. Welcome to the club!

What the hell are the payouts on those things?

You are apparently good at being bad....

Excellent question, sir Trip. The payouts are as follows:
5th - You get your $8 back.
4th - $4 profit
3rd - $8 profit
2nd - $12 profit
1st - $16 profit

Basically in my mind even a $4 or $8 profit is a good use of my time when I'm also two-tabling cash games while I play. And at least 25 percent of the time I win, which I'll take a $16 profit any night.
And the risk is very small - if I can't at least place 5th among those single-celled mitropia at least 75 percent of the time than I should give up poker.
