I just chatted with Daniel to see what game he was playing. It's called "Mille," and looks to be a version of Rummy. He pointed me to his web site for the rules, which are here:

I looked through all the videos and didn't spot you, which one is it?

The one I linked too. It's noting big - just me walking by in the background of the John Phan interview.

Well I needed the RealPlayer plugin in order to view it and I downloaded it and still nothing. Can't seem to view that particular page. Hmm...the things I do for you .  Ah well...will keep on working at it. Maybe it's not firefox friendly or something. Edit: Ok finally got it...you must have been the one with the red t'shirt and cap with coffee cup in hand. Am I right?

Tough break
Well congrats on your back-from-the-dead tourney finish.
The 5/10 NL game was harsh. When reading this is I was thinking that 600 seems low for a buy-in to a game of the size (In order to get my mind around playing for those stakes, I have to translate it to .50/$1, for which I'd want to sit with 100 dollars rather than 50. Or, in your case, $1000 dollars instead of $500!) But it doesn't seem like it would have made a difference, just would have ended up costing you more. It boggles my mind that you get guys calling $90 bets (9x the big blind!) pre-flop with J8. Regardless, what a hell of a trip. |

It's embarrassing.

Being it was in a styrofoam cup I said coffee. Since when don't you drink coffee? Or do you just not have a taste for it? And btw...you planning on hitting the beach at any time? Some video of that would be nice.

Read this:
I need your advice. Should I play in it? Sounds pretty sweet, doesn't it? I think I just might need to go for it. |

FYI - I AM playing in this today. We are supposed to start at 11:00. You should all be able to watch on Stars.
Here's hoping I don't embarrass myself too much

Damn... that was awesome. I'm really glad I decided to go for it, despite my weak showing.
Chatted with Grinder a bit... he told me he plays these ALL THE TIME online. $5000 and $2000 ones. He says he usually does the $2k ones, because there is a lot less variance. He doesn't keep track, but he guesses he has a 2:1 win rate. That's sick. So, I'm out, and I missed the start of the $1000 NL tourney, so I guess I'm done for the day. Maybe I'll enjoy Atlantis, or maybe I'll get in the 4:30 tourneys nd watch football here in the lobby. Hmmmmmmmm... |

Right now, I am siting in the lobby at a table with Patrik Antonius:
He's "learning" HiLo, right now... playing $300/$600 on UB. This is the only game he loses at, apparently, so he's working on it so he can play in "The Big Game." Think about that for a minute. Did I mention that I am just sitting here, shooting the shit with this guy right now? Last edited by Talking Poker; 01-08-06 at 02:59 PM. |

Evelyn Ng just walked in here. My God, she looks good. Definitely the best looking female poker player. And I say that with "Jennicide" sitting about 20 feet that way.
Here's a pic of me and the Mizrachis from the HU tourney earlier... |
