Congratulations to Joe Cada for winning the WSOP final table. Joe is the youngest player to win and I met him at the party in the ESPN Zone. He seemed to be a very likable 21 year old and I believe he will do his best to promote poker. I hear the new poker term is when you lose with AK vs. AQ will be you got "moon'ed". Of course they will be referencing the hand Darvin Moon knocked Phil Ivey out with.
"Go die under a deck of cards" is what Joan Rivers told me to do. Unknowingly, a Miami radio station scheduled Joan and myself for interviews the same day. One of the announcers on the show had read my blog where I said f someone gave Joan Rivers a penny for her intelligence, she would have to give a refund. I was trashing Mrs. Rivers for her comments about poker players on the TV show, "The Apprentice". Joan was mad at Annie Duke, who was winning the game hands down, but included the entire poker world, calling us "trash, gangsters and morons". So until Joan apologizes to all the poker world, I'll continue to insult her at every opportunity. She also bragged about having an IQ of 135, Annie Duke must have one of 270 because she was twice as smart as Joan on the TV show.
I guess my autobiography hit the bookstores yesterday. I had telephone calls from radio stations across America for interviews but I'm going to curtail those, also.
Things are finally winding down now where I can get some much needed rest. Since I got food poisoning 10 days ago, I've been groggy. I play in the HSP this Friday and then it's clear sailing on my schedule. I'm going for 17 straight wins on TV cash games. I wonder if Friday the 13th is a bad omen? Nah, I don't believe in that stuff.
