Blackjack Tournament Updae

admin — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 04:17:44 +0000

I still owe you the updates from the Blackjack tournament which was taking place on July 19.
So, everyone arrived to my house, eventually there were 12 crazy blackjack lovers here, which means the prizes went up a bit since we initially expected 10 players around the blackjack table, so this was a nice surprise.

We started playing at 2 tables of 6, where the top 3 from each table were in the final table, so I was lucky enough to get there, playing some brilliant blackjack moves (luckily for me dealer busted a lot so even crappy hands as 13-16 brought home some nice revenues).

At the final table I had some really bad hands and I was out of it pretty fast (finished the tournament at #5 which is nice but didn’t gave me any winnings since only top 3 got to share the prize pool)

Now I have this cool table, which can be blackjack or poker table, all i need is to get a roulette wheel and I cant start my own home edition casino (I even have this crappy old mini slot machine I once bought)
Better luck next tournament (which is going to be a poker texas holdem one)

Fancy Dinner for Poker Girl

Tonight I went out with a friend for a really fancy dinner, and the reason is of course – poker. here is the story, I was playing poker with some friends last weekend, we decided to make our poker game a little bit more interesting, so we decided on some side bets around our poker table, like the first ho got a certain card (queen of heart) got a free parking at university for 3 days (free= we paid), the one who got the highest poker hand on round 12 got all of us making him food for the next weekend, and the one who got the first pocket of aces (me…) got a fancy dinner – so my friend took me out (they all chipped in) and i had a really really great Salmon with basil and stuff which I just love (I am a big Salmon fan) – all and all- a good night for the poker girl – I am really hoping to get this side bets a regular feature on our poker nights.

Roulette Weekend Crazy Night

This weekend we are planning to do some old fashion roulette night at my friend, Christina, house. Now, just so you will understand why this crazy roulette night is going to be so much fun (much more than just a roulette wheel night), is the fact the Chris has this huge and amazing house outside the city, just waiting for us to come with some chips and cards and have fun (there is also a nice pool there…too cold though, but we will probably use this in one of our summer blackjack or poker tournaments (when you are out of the tournament at least you have something fun to do)

Anyway, why roulette you are probably asking? the true is only since Chris has a really cool old roulette wheel her dad once bought at an auction and i always wanted to try this roulette wheel, but ….there was no ball since it was lost, it took us some time but we managed to get a ball and we are on our way to the first roulette night – never had this one before…

Strip Poker – Can I Actually Win some Money Here?

Poker Girl — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 11:34:48 +0000

Last night some friends and I decided to play some strip poker just for fun, ye it was after studying too hard and after a few beers but it was actually fun. the thing is that it got me to start thinking about the purpose of me playing poker, well, as I said I wanted to play poker in order to get better, win some online poker and get some extra money to pay my tuition right? while we were playing i was thinking, what the hell is this for? will this game actually gonna help me? am I going to win any money here? and i relized nothing will come out of me playing some crazy naked poker with some other crazy half drunk guys and gals.

Then i started to think of another idea, in which I can actually get some money here, well, at least if we are playing strip poker and there is this huge pile of clothes (and some of it are really nice since my friends are as stylish as me obviously) then if I could win that pile it would defintly help me a lot, well it is not like i win money and be able to pay my tuition but at least I will buy few less items in my next shopping trip right? so this is actually can save me some money, which means i can pay tuition with it…. i feel like the smartest person alive right now.

So, what do you think? next time when playing strip poker4 will people be willing to actually risk their clothes? I hope so…

Back from Las Vegas

Poker Girl — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 19:01:15 +0000

So I am back home, after 4 days and 20 hours of flight or so I am back from Las Vegas.

I did some gambling while there, at the first day I won like 50 USD or so at the roulette table which was very nice, then later that night I played some blackjack, it was nice and a lot of fun to sit with some people at the black jack table and get crazy, I won a few and lost a few.

The next night I went for another night of crazy blackjack gambling and I played at the same table (with a friend) and lost about 160USD, so now I am actually below targets here I really need to get it back (maybe I should play only roulette next time and not try my luck with some other games like blackjack ha?)

Well, I didnt tried poker though, it looked strange to sit in a room with people i dont know and play a game like poker, it supposed to be much more social i think, i dont know maybe next time poker will be on my agenda as well.
Anyway, I need to sleep – will write more about Vegas and the casinos next time.

anyway, in the meanwhile i have decided to check to online poker at party poker – I heard some great stuff about it and i want to see what it is all about – updates later (you are of course welcome to play with me there – im pokergirl…)
