Limping for real

Well, the biggest story coming out of my PLHE tourney on Friday actually came after the games on my way home. I was supposed to get a ride back to my house, bu

PJK Anticipation

Only 30 minutes to go until the big show. I've already got trash talking messages from Felicia and hdouble today. I'm not too sure that I can top my fourth pl
