Not nearly as nice as using a laptop but at least I always have my

Firefox Download Day (Or I Heart Server Errors)

Today (June 17, 2008) is the official Firefox 3 Download day where they hope to beat the world record (except there is no official world record) for downloads in a single day. I have to say that I've been using the beta and release candidates for Firefox 3 for several months and it BLOWS INTERNET EXPLORER away. It's insanely faster better stronger, just not even close... So try it out and if you get an HTTP 1.1 Server Error when you try, just... try again

Weekly $20 Money Added at Full Tilt

Just wanted to post a quick note here that the weekly $20 money added ($2+$0.50 buy in) is changing format. It will now be 6max No Limit Turbo (instead of full ring non-turbo). It runs every Saturday at Full Tilt at 9:00am Pacific (Noon Eastern) and is on the Private Tab under Tournaments.

The password is LOWLIMIT

Hope to see you there!

Jackpot Share

I won a share of the UltimateBet jackpot about a week ago. I was sitting at one of the $0.50/$1.00 Limit Holdem jackpot tables and someone at another table (but at the same limit) hit it so everyone not at that table got $260 and some change, which in terms of the limit we are sitting at is ... well it's 260 big bets. The bad beat of this story is that I wasn't sitting at more than one table (which I usually am) because you get a share for every table you are sitting at...

I've been playing quite a bit of low limit Holdem at UB the last few weeks and trying to improve my multi-tabling. So far the most I can do halfway reasonably is about six tables and that is without paying all that much attention to individual players. It just blows my mind that there are people out there that multitable 20 tables at a time. I'm wondering how that works, exactly, as I'd have trouble hitting 20 different buttons when it is my turn to act...
