For those that run poker leagues
Friday, March 23, 2007
This is DNasty, so there is no confusion.
I am starting a poker league that will have 1 tournament a month. We are going to have a shortened 6 month season starting in June. The year will conclude with a TOC, with prize money that has been raked from the monthly tourney buy-in, most likely 25+15. We are anticipating 18 players this season with potentially more for our second season. We really want to have this 6 month season be a warm up for the full year season, by that I mean we don’t want to change much when we expand.
What is the best point system that will allow for the better consistent players to make our TOC which might include 9 players? We had suggestions of all tournament winners making the TOC, which I am not a fan of this style. My goal obviously is to make it worth it for all players to continue playing but still reward the good players that finish in the top spots consistently.

Detroit Recap
Tuesday, March 20, 2007
I feel more pressure throwing together a post for Tripjax, than I did for my site. Since I don’t feel I can spew anything but crap right now I wont talk about the following:
How I busted SteelerJosh out of a live tourney Friday night
How I laid down Queens after an all in push on the flop at the bubble
How pissed I was when he was called by Ace rag and he showed the other Queens
What Oprah’s Secret really is per SteelerJosh
How to spell Technology the Canadian way
How I looked at 400+ houses while in Detroit in my comfy rental Toyota Crapolla
How much kick is really in SteelerJosh’s homebrew
How quickly my move is coming up
How quickly and fairly easily the Detroit Poker League is coming together
How I took third place in the tourney
I wouldn’t want to fill TripJax’s blog with that junk so lets forget about it.
Truly I could say a lot about all these, but they aren’t that important right now. School and work, both finishing up are pretty hectic. Job searching and housing is not fun right now. Not playing any online mostly because of time and partly because the junk kicking I took the last time I did. Well I am also playing a lot of the Wii, which kicks ass. That’s all for now.
Until next time, Equal Marriage...

The King is back.

Just call me Jay Z.
Instead of writing for Beyonce, I’m writing for TripJax.
I know that a blog shouldn’t be a chore but every time I saw my page sitting there with stale posts, it bothered me. So I retired. By the way its still there, I deleted everything but it still technically exists, so for the time being this is my new home.
Aren’t we all contributors on each others sites anyways via comments, chat, and the bad beats we lay on each other? Thought so…
I was never any good at this so don’t expect quality if you TRIP on my tab.
This just in…When DNasty joined Tripjax.com, experts were able to predict the new “worth” of Tripjax.com.
My blog is worth
A lot less now.
How much is your blog worth?
Seriously if you didn’t think Tripjax was a donkey before, he just made the biggest donkey play ever. Oh well. He will learn very shortly.
Later…

DNasty Is In The House
Monday, February 19, 2007
I don't have a lot of time today, so let me just run through this post all quick and proper like. First off, I'm happy to announce that DNasty, who recently ended his poker blog, has agreed to start writing here at tripjax.com. Once he gets started, I'll be adding a tab above listed as DNasty in order to easily find each of his posts.
I think the addition of DNasty as a contributor is definitely a good idea. D now has the ability to post when he feels like it, without having the pressure of keeping up a blog or feeling bad about not posting enough. And I get some much needed help with a few extra posts here and there. My schedule - both at work and home - have really decreased my ability to write here as often. Trust me, I'm not going anywhere, but I'm lucky to get 2 or 3 posts up a week these days.
Most importantly, I'm just glad we will still be able to keep D in the poker blogging community and occasionally see some writing from him again. He's already warned me that he probably won't be able to post anything for a week or so, but like I told him, no pressure. When he can post he will. So welcome DNasty!
At some point last week, I made the decision that this President's Day weekend would be a great chance for us to redo our kitchen. It was a hideous excuse for a kitchen and has been needing repair for sometime. Three days later and we are finishing up things. We took a "before" picture, so if we can get things finished today, I might put up a before and after picture here. I still have a good bit of work to do, which is why I mentioned I don't have a lot of time today. I'm quite sore and tired, so I might need a day off from my day off today.
I've missed many blogger tourneys lately, including the Big Game last night, but I hope to be back in the games soon. A tourney I haven't played in quite a while is Mondays At The Hoy. I again won't be able to make it tonight, but I still want to pimp it when I can. In fact, since I made this little gadget last week, I might as well put it to use again this week. See below for details on all the current tourneys (that I am aware of).
Until next time, may the felt be with you.
