Liar Dice - Diary of a Bean Counter!

New BR highpoint:

Thank goodness new FTP takes Zimbabwean dollars.

Read a really cool post yesterday about players pointlessly trying to get sexy high NSDW graphs and, in so doing, sacrificing EV.

Played some Rush this morning with the idea of trying implement these ideas. Epic fail, obv.

No, just releasing bonus.

How can I fold? I has a gutshot

One of my poker idols, Victoria Coren, recently wrote a nice piece in her blog about having a tough time with quads at this year's UKIPT in Bristol. It's very well worth reading. Celeb stalker that I am, I posed a follow up question to Victoria on Twitter, to which she was good enough to respond:

Hi Tim, unusual request of the day: back on page 75 you posted a Youtube video of a guy called Roo (?) and partner in some kind of humorous dance-off, possibly somewhere in Wales, and it made my day; the video has now been removed, and my attempts to find more stuff by those guys on the Web have met with ignominious failure - any idea where that video and similar might be found?
