Been a while since I could say I've run good, but today I most definitely can make that assertion. Yay. Here's a graph of Saturday the 10th through Thursday the 15th:


I've finished Black Sigil for the DS. It was painfully buggy in places, had a very lackluster ending, but did deliver an "old school" SNES RPG feel. Playing through it didn't feel like an entire waste of time, which is good, but it does leave me wondering how great a SNES style RPG developed well for the DS or PSP could be. I'll be moving on to the Persona remake for the PSP which I have moderately high hopes for.

I'd post a few hands but even the most notable ones are basically just megadonks being megadonks. Ah what the hell, here's a couple 300bb pots at 100nl. All four villains who stack off in these hands can be considered extremely fishy. I believe the lowest VPIP of any of them was >50. In the 88 AIPF hand, the one guy was 95/60 and the other guy was basically never folding anything remotely playable vs him (and himself had a very high VPIP). Note that while both hands only had 6 people seated, I am not playing 6-max and they were of course my regular FR tables. The fact that three seats are open at each of these tables containing two megadonks per is a testament to how badly 100nl regs in general fail at game selection.
