More bad news for DudeSeeg fans. I was preoccupied today with building my fantasy baseball team databases for three teams. The poker was something in the background, keeping me entertained. I played a couple tourneys this morning but got nowhere. I played a couple more tonight and got nowhere again. One of them was a $216 satellite in which 6 of 66 players received $2000 in tournament cash. I played as well as I could and got deep but couldn't close. Needing to steal some blinds, it seemed I got reraised off every marginal hand while nobody gave me any business on my big pairs. Finally, I got A-K and my decision was whether to push it or merely call and invite action. I chose the latter to give A-J the chance to try to raise me off of it. It folded to the big blind who pushed with 3-3. I called but failed to connect. That really upset me because then I was left wondering if he would have folded had I shoved instead. So, it'a a minus six hundo today in tournaments. I also played a few hours of $3/6 O8 and won $60.
