Spring Cleaning

Ken Prevo — Fri, 18 May 2012 14:45:37 +0000

If you saw my place, you say overdue. Well, you are seeing my place — at least the electronic one. So, take a look around. Notice anything?

Common Poker Mistakes

Ken Prevo — Fri, 18 May 2012 12:18:21 +0000

If you play poker often enough, you’ll soon learn that there are mistakes people make frequently that make you wonder what planet they were on while playing. I’m going to list the more glaring ones, and if you spot anything you do in this list – stop doing it at once, because all you’re doing is preventing yourself from playing better.(...)

Art Meets Data

Wondering what friend Pat will have to say about the link below. If you hit the main page there, you will be introduced to the artist/technologists who’s blog you are visiting. It really spoke to me at a level I’m not really sure of. I’ve visited there two days now and find it somehow relaxing.(...)

Knowledge

Ken Prevo — Mon, 14 May 2012 18:36:01 +0000

That’s a word we all respect. It is one of those good things. I’ve always liked gaining knowledge. That translates to a lot of hobbies and interests over the years. We could throw in jack of all trades and master of none and not be that far from the mark in a lot of areas. Two things stuck. One was an interest in computers. At that I think I could say that I was quite good. I was around those that were truly great at times. Mixed results with that. The other has been a hobby — poker. No poker player can deny mixed results happening. I have had a lot of hobbies. You can throw in expensive for most. Hobbies were a very diverse group. They came and went. Poker has stuck longer than I’d thought it would.(...)

A Word and World Away

Ken Prevo — Fri, 11 May 2012 15:08:10 +0000

Sick! That sick is a multi-level sick. It is sick to just watch and not be able to play. It is sick to see the outcome. It is sick to see the $$$$. Sick is an interesting term. It has morphed in the modern era to an interesting ambiguity. Sick.(...)

A Gaming Commission by any other name.

Can’t pass the smell test. The one out on an island off Britain reminds me of an old movie about a similar little island. It was a “tight little island” and that was because a ship sunk and all this booze washed up on the shore.. That was a comedy but Alderney is no joke.(...)

Not starching your skivvies is a good one. It show that things can get carried beyond the norm. Aunt Dot always ironed Uncle Jay’s loose whiteys. That is hearsay on my part and comes from the family joke category. Today, computers are getting into the act. I’ve remarked on how Google serves up search based on what it thinks are your interests. How good is that?(...)

By any other name

Ken Prevo — Sat, 05 May 2012 20:41:11 +0000

You know like Spaceballs — THE MOVIE. You differentiate. You refine. So we’re talking TRIPLE CROWN. Of course that isn’t enough for today.(...)

Cue Nelson Muntz

Ken Prevo — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 15:02:41 +0000

Ha-Haw! Yeah, his stock line. Filled with ridicule. Today seems a nice day to bring that to the fore. Of course Nelson isn’t the brightest bulb in a world where the only brightness isn’t in the characters but in the artificial world created. That’s been pretty much the case since Black Friday.(...)

Gonzo Bastard Trouble

Ken Prevo — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:44:25 +0000

Hey that is GBT by another name. I could have tried and eventually made it a worse play on Groupe Bernard Tappie. Well, maybe not for the worse you can visit another site. But, do you like horror stories that much? GBT makes Chuckie look like a decent playmate.

The guy over at Diamond Flush poker is a recent blog with a past. He did a lot of the dirt digging that has gone on in the Full Tilt Saga. When that folded he didn’t quit but set up his own rumor/fact mill. This time around he’s dropping more about what could have happened. Never thought I’d say it but, “God Bless Poker Stars.”
