Holy Cow, The Golden Palace Pink Bunny Actually Can Play Poker

Before I get started here are a couple links of the most recent press The Pink Bunny has received:

The Pink Bunny Hits The Local Media

Sorry about the break between blogs, I've been pretty busy lately working on a couple new projects. I am in the process of launching a new start-up business (poker related) of course, and I also recently acquired another business to add to my growing portfolio of websites, internet businesses, ect. Sometimes I wonder how I even have time to sleep. Oh wait, I don't really sleep that much. Speaking of which, it's somewhat funny the hours that most poker players or promoters hold. A good friend of mine Bryan Micon who runs NeverWinPoker.com calls them "degenerate hours". Man, he is so right :)

I could sit on this computer all afternoon sending emails waiting to hear back from folks and 9 times out of 10 when I hear that little chime from outlook it is a Nigerian business man telling me needs help transferring $10 million USD, or someone offering a remedy to make my penis 8 inches longer.......Ummmm no thanks on both, although the second offer does sound intriguing. However if I'm online between the hours of midnight and 3 A.M. it seems my inbox is blowing up, and heaven forbid I open up messenger. I suppose that's just how we roll in the online poker world.

Quite honestly I can't get much done during the day with a 2 year old and a wife at home anyways. The only time I normally work during the daytime hours is when my daughter and wife take a nap. Besides, my family is far more important to me than this stupid laptop. As soon as the house is asleep though I can get twice as much done in a peaceful and quiet environment. Here's a "Jeremy Random Thought of The Day"........I only thought of this after writing the last sentence. At the end of the year if I looked at how much money was sent and received from this laptop I could probably be classified as a small bank somewhere. Between playing online and promoting the amount has got to be ridiculous.

Now, your probably wondering about the title of the blog. can I get a quick Hell Ya! Last Friday night I decided to play in the $150 Multi-Table at The Local Charity Poker Night. I ended up chopping it at the end with one guy whose chip stack was equal to mine.

So here's how it all went down. All day Friday I was contemplating playing in the event that evening, but it was like six sense or something, I knew I was going to win it. As I mentioned earlier I am in the process of acquiring a new business and all day I thought, man if I could win tonight that would justify the acquisition of the new business to my wife :).........Needless to say I was focused.

Here's my new lucky poker shirt that I had on that night.........Fresh out of the bag from the Target superstore!

It got quite a laugh from everyone at the table. Anyhow, here's how it started, there were 48 players total and we all started with $3K in chips. The blinds started at $25-$50 and were being raised every 12-15 minutes. I played tighter than a nuns &%#$@^ for the first few rounds. In fact I only played a few hands in the first hour, and each time it was folded to me on the flop. Towards the end of the $50 -$100 round I made a move with trips and was able to build my stack to around $6000. There I was, sitting, sitting, and sitting. Finally before my BB at 100-200 I was moved to another table. I was kinda pissed as I had everyone's play pegged on the old table.

The first hand I was dealt in the BB I caught AKc.......sure enough it folded all the way around to the bald guy on my right who decided to move all-in. The guy had about $4000, so I figured I had him covered and had feeling he had A/something and was trying to pick up my blind as I saw him push earlier with garbage trying to steal. Also my table image was pretty tight so he figured it would be a pretty easy steal. I thought about it for a second and called. To make a long story short he had KQ caught a Q on the flop to end up winning the hand.

I was a but crippled at this point and continued to fold almost everything. In the midst of my garbage cards the blinds had climbed to $500-$1000. At this point with about $1700 in my stack it was go time. Finally I caught TT and pushed.........no respect, I got two callers. I caught a 10 on the turn and tripled up. I then had a good run and won a few other smaller pots and next thing you know I was sitting on about $18K.

Then I caught JT os in the BB with blinds at $1500/$3000. I knew a couple of the guys at the other corner of the table and I knew they were a little flustered about my comeback. Anyhow a friend of mine Jim Elsworth, who is a really good card player made it $6K to go. Everyone folded to me and I called, the flop came rag, rag, J. I felt pretty good at this point that I had the best hand. Jim thought about it for a second and bet out another $6K. With only about $10K left in my stack I only had one decision, fold or reraise all-in. Because Scott only bet $6K and didn't have that sense of aggression that he is known for, I put him on AK,AQ, or a smaller pocket pair. I moved all-in for his $6K and another $4K I believe. Jim quickly called and turned over J9.

The turn and the river brought him no help and all of the sudden I was the chip leader with about 27 people left. I tightened up again, with the exception of stealing a few blinds by leveraging my big chip stack against the smaller ones.

Finally I made the final table. This was a bit different for me as I primarily play online exclusively. Nonetheless it was cool as I sat down as the chip leader. The very first hand I lost half my stack with AQ this time against Ron Lawsons (another acquaintance)'s AK. All I could think is "You dumb ass, make it all the way here as chip leader and donk it off in the first few hands" Ron was playing pretty loose that night so I thought I may have had the best hand......No Dice! By this time the blinds were frozen at $5K and $10K. The smaller stacks quickly blinded out and we were down to about 7 of us. My stack was right in the middle somewhere. With only $144k in play and 7 people at the table it came down to a total pre-flop game at this point with the exception of a few hands. Either you were pushing before the flop or you were folding. Of course the blinds were very valuable so there was a lot of attempted blind stealing going on.

There were 2 key hands that sealed my fate. The first was when I held Q9 suited in the BB and got a free look with heads up and the SB just calling. The flop came and brought me an open ended straight draw as well as a flush draw. The SB moved all-in on the flop. I had him covered, but a call would force me to lose 2/3 of my chips. The more I thought about it and all the outs I had, it seemed like it wasn't an awful call. I'm sure some may argue that but I also took into consideration that the SB may just be trying to steal. So I called and he turned over top pair. The turn brought nothing, however the river brought a 8 to complete my straight. BoooYahh, 6 players left. Unless I totally did something stupid I was almost guaranteed to be in the money (Top 5). Once again I went back to conservative mode and folded almost everything.

Ron was knocked out 6th and there I was, in the money! The next key hand came when I was in the BB again and held AQ. The SB moved all-in with a fair amount of chips. I quickly called and he showed TT. Luckily the flop brought me a Q, and I ended up winning that hand. I can't remember how the 4th guy went out, but soon it was down to 3 of us. I don't know the eventual 3rd place finisher but he is a friend of Jims and I have played with him a few times. to be quite honest, I remember him busting me up in a 5-10 game a few years back so I really wasn't too enthused to have him sitting on my right. He was the short stack at the table and went all-in almost every time I was BB. I knew he was stealing, but I couldn't justify a call with rags.

The guy on my left whose stack was a little bigger than mine at this point was also pretty aggressive. Here I was after playing so tight all night in the middle of these two guys. Several times I just folded and watched them exchange chips. I know short handed is much more aggressive, but I'm still not going to donk off all my chips with 93os. Anyways finally in my BB I caught KQ and again the SB went all-in, I quickly called and saw him turn over 25 suited. I had a sinking feeling that he was gonna fu&# me by catching one of those, but luckily he didn't and I won the hand.

With our stacks almost even and the payouts for 1st and 2nd pretty close, $1800/$2200, we decided to chop and each take $2k. There it is folks, not my first "live" final table but certainly my first win at the $150 Multi. The next night I hosted a freeroll at FullTiltPoker.com with 115 players and I took 4th place. I guess you could say I'm having a good week.

Speaking of a FullTilt Poker Bonus Code, I have a new blog. I'm trying to get this in the top 10 on google so don't mind the two mentions of FullTiltPoker.com Bonus Code. LOL

Mulch, Obese Women, and of course poker!

Oh man where do I start on the last few days.....Well I suppose at the beginning. The Party Riches Tournament was a blast. There was certainly no shortage of trash talking during the tournament. This did make it fun however. Follow THIS LINK to see the official results.

I played pretty poor and finished in 16th. I think I busted out with top two pair that got beaten by a straight on the turn. I knew I should of folded, but what the hell. The winner texignweb actually came back from 30 chips and an all-in to win the entire tournament. I think the next one we will be going back to FullTiltPoker.com though. Hell maybe we can even just make it a weekly standing tournament.

Tonight I played in another tournament that a buddy of mine who owns Tips4Poker.com put on. It was at NoblePoker. I actually sat out for most of the tourney though because I was doing a radio interview. Sorry no good stories about the tournament but the interview went really well and I will post a link to it as soon it is up.

The guys I interviewed with were The Specialist & AKG They have a podcast every week that is hilarious. Some of the questions were great such as "What are you going to do about swamp ass in the Pink Bunny suit?" I have another radio interview with Canada's top sports radio show this Sunday night.

Okay enough of the Pink Bunny and poker stuff, many of you have asked me to blog more about Jeremy Enke and my daily life. Well you asked for it so here you go. Today my wife decided we needed some new mulch to cover the existing mulch from last year......At 10:00 this morning a flatbed truck backed into my driveway and dumped 5 times more than I needed. This evening I thought after a hard days work in the yard it would be nice to get out and have dinner. So I load the wife and kid in the SUV and go to Baker's Square. We sat next to a morbidly obese lady and I watched her eat straight jelly from the jelly packets you get at restaurants with toast...WTF??? It made me not hate my new diet so much.

As you can see my life stories are not as exciting as my poker and pink bunny stories. I sat at a 10-20 NL table with Layne Flack the other night at FullTiltPoker.com I was way outside my limits as I only had $1400 at the table and he had $6800. I played like a rock and was just hoping to bust him out of a few hands so I could post about the Pink Bunny beating Layne Flack. Well things didn't go as planned. I held my own and ended up not really catching anything. I left $400 down. Oh well, there's always next time right?

As far as business goes, my biggest project to date is finally coming to fruition and should be up in the next week or so as soon as the Neteller integration is complete. Trust me, if there has ever been one thing that could turn me into a geek internet millionaire, this is it. Aside from this, my goal over the next six months is to become one of FullTiltPoker.com's largest affiliates. I've got a pretty good plan in place that is allowing me to drive a ton of new players to the site.

On a side note Golden Palace Events finally got the Hooters Pics on their site!

I know many of you that read this blog, and if there is anything specific you would like to see me write about just add a comment or email me.

The Party Riches Tournament is Tonight!!

Yes, tonight is the second porterhouse Tournament and it's being held at UltimateBet.com Go to porterhouse and you will find all the info in the forums if you want to play.

I assume it will be pretty fishy as most affiliates are great marketers but horrible players. :) One of the things aside from bounties that I am doing for this tournament is that I am offering the winner a one month spot of their banner in the forums at porterhouse. This is a pretty good prize as the site's traffic Has been drastically picking up after this whole Pink Bunny shenanigans. Our Alexa ranking is now under 40,000 and I had to up the bandwidth last night. Within the next week the new porterhouse site should be available for folks to preview.

Regarding the Pink Bunny, I did an interview over the weekend with my local paper and I will post the link when it goes up. I am doing a radio podcast on Thursday night with The Specialist and AKG and I will post this link as well. I am in the process of planning my next appearance, it should be a riot.

As much as I think it gives me additional exposure when all the copycats try to do this same sort of campaign, it does cause me a little concern that Harrah's is going to see this as getting out of control and just ban all costumes all together. That's the problem when brilliant ideas are public. People always want to emulate them.

I also wish GP would post the Hooters pics on their events page in the next day or soon :)

Let's see what else is happening in my life. I am in the process of making a new business acquisition that should be finalized by the end of the week. Yes, another poker website and Ebook!

On a personal note I got out my shorts from last summer and tried them on. A little tight to say the least. With that said the Pink Bunny is now on a quasi diet. I am no longer drinking any soda or beer. I think just cutting these two things out of my regular diet will make a big difference. Yes this is sad I know.

Anyhow the porterhouse Ass kicking commences in less than 12 hours, hope to see you all there.

Thursday Night at Golden Palace Poker.

Last night I sat down for my first extended 2-4 session at Golden Palace's Poker Room. It was an experience to say the least. It was kind of cool that a few people stopped by to say what's up to the Pink Bunny! So a quick shout out to those folks :) Stop by next week and watch me dominate the table again. I started with $100 as I figured this was plenty of money for a tight player with such low limits. I pretty much only played premium hands in late positions as I was also multi-tasking and working on some things for PartyRiches.com Within the first hour my hundred turned into $190. I am not kidding I won the first five hands I got involved in. I was hitting some decent flops but getting called down to the river was almost inevitable. I feel like the players at Golden Palace have a hard time laying down any pair. I also feel that a good percentage of the players there have no idea about pot odds and EV.

Anyhow after the first hour I went on a bit of a cold streak. I loosened up my play a bit as we became shorthanded. There were only three of us and one guy "bluffalobill" literally raised or called every hand. I made a few mistakes because of this. I knew for a fact he was bluffing most of the time, but a couple times I called him down with hands like AK or AQ and the bastard sucked out on me at the river with hands like K3 and J2.........Usually it was the 2 or 3 that he caught on the turn or river. I did take him once with trips against his two pair for a $60 pot though. Normally I love players like this, but shorthanded it was getting frustrating when I couldn't catch anything on the board.

After the table filled up again I went on another hot streak. I think I was down too $120 at this point and managed to win some big hands to bring my stack around $230. Then I cleared the bonus and had another $25 added to my account. Usually I play higher limits than 2-4 so after a while I was really starting to get bored. With that said I probably should have called it a night but I inevitably started playing more hands. I gave a little money back and then decided to leave and go play some 8-16 at Full Tilt. I only played there for an hour but I owned the table. The only reason I went to Full Tilt Poker was because I just got my first commission deposited yesterday for promoting them and was in the mood to play some higher limits than 2-4. Well needless to say it took me one month to EARN around $1000 promoting Full-Tilt and I was able to double that in 1 hour playing the 8-16............I think in my case however, over the long run I have better EV promoting versus playing :)

I think I am done playing for a few days until the big Party Riches Tournament next week. If your not doing anything next Tuesday night you should play. It is always a good time and we have some money added for bounties.

Hooters.....Wow

So I went to Hooters tonight in the Pink Bunny outfit. I have to say I was a bit nervous before walking in. Literally I felt like I was about to skydive for the first time. It's always hard to know what people are going to think when someone walks into a place in a Pink Bunny Costume!

As soon as we walked in I was greeted by a few very friendly hostesses. Once we sat down it was funny to see all the eyes come towards me. After a while once everyone saw the Golden Palace emblem on my suit it loosened up a bit. Before I knew it all kinds of people were coming up to me and wanted to hear my story.

I think the end of the night was the best though. I pretty much owned the place. I was giving out Golden Palace t-shirts and hats and the entire Hooters was pretty much all about The Pink Bunny.

Overall I would say the appearance went better than I expected. People loved it! I think for the next one I am going to either go to a Cubs game and try to sit right behind home plate or I am going to a karaoke bar to sing some bunny songs!
