Poker Update

I was bubble boy. At 3-handed, I had A-4. I raised preflop and got an Ace on the flop. But the other guy had A-Q. Oh well.

WSOP: How about Ivey completely missing the flush? Right now my money is on Shulman to take it all, even though I am 3-degrees removed from Eric Buchman (his cousin married a high-school buddy of mine).

Basketball is on

This is my favorite time of year. Professional football and basketball are my favorite sports and they will both be on for a few months.

On opening night the Celtics beat the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers were 39-2 at home last year, that’s a heck of a win. I would rather have Rasheed Wallace than Shaq any day. I suspect that the 2009 Shaq is not only not very good, he’s a liability. We’ll see.

Pro-rated record for the 2009 Celtics (after 2 games): 82-0!
Pro-rated record for the 2009 Cavaliers (after 2 games): 0-82!
