UIGEA is Boob Neutral and Where’s Waldo

 

Anderson

With headlines that included phrases like ”Tits Up” and “Pamela Anderson Goes Down,” it was reported that Pam Anderson has pulled the plug on her online poker room.  In her diary entries, that read like the ramblings of your average fourteen year old, she covers a lot of terrain; it was fun while it lasted, glad it is over, it was all too shady, and she loves Doyle.  But mention of red tape and too many rules in the USA have me thinkin’ her lawyers finally got hold of her to chat about the UIGEA.  It also may be that hers was the first high heel to drop on the news that Tribeca Network is giving its clients that still take US customers, like Doyle’s Room, six months to find another software provider.

Margolis

There was a momentary panic on the internet when people thought online poker might be two aging plastic tits to the red.  But then people remembered that we picked up two earlier last week when Cindy Margolis signed an endorsement deal with Tropical Poker. The announcement came on the heels of the release of Margolis’ cover issue of Playboy.  It’s nice to see they’re still doing some quality work over at Poker Royalty. 

So we can relax.  While the UIGEA may not be great for poker, it is at least boob neutral.  And isn’t that what really counts.

Mommie

Using tactics that equate to blog reader waterboarding, Iggy is putting his dwarfish life at risk.  The Negreanu-esque “I have such great news that I can’t tell you about” approach has me this close to posting a picture of the Iggster, in the off chance a reader on the street might pummel him. 

And then to make matters worse, Pauly was playing some kind of Amsterdam blog version of Where’s Waldo, where his blog was automatically redirecting to an online poker site.  This has apparently been resolved.

But this week left me wanting to scream out into the blogishere like Joan Crawford, “Don’t fuck with me fellas.  This ain’t my first time at the rodeo.”

Thank god I still had Al; my Omaholic twin separated at birth.

Is it me, or is the picture of Joan Crawford the least scary picture on the blog today?

  1. Gee Amy, as much as I hate to pick at nits :) There is no picture of Joan Crawford on the blog today. The picture of Faye Dunaway is sort of scary.

    And you have pointed out a couple of times now that the beaver should be feared. I would hate to have to fear the boobie as well. Nothing left to live for

  2. Bill you are very nitty today. I suspect you’re at an undisclosed work location where there is no poker. And yes, technically it is not Joan - although to me, Faye “was” Joan in that role. And if you find yourself fearing plastic boobies, last I heard, there were still a few naturals left in the world.

  3. You’ve always got me even if my Omahaholic side has been getting crushed over the last few days. Friggin’ lemurs.

  4. In the words of the greatest of all President’s, William Jefferson Clinton: “We have nothing to fear but the Beaver herself.”

  5. […] Blink and you might have missed it. (Thanks for Amy Calistri for pointing out its demise. I almost missed that.) […]

  6. I’m still trying to get Al to play big bet Omaha, but he refuses.
