I'd appreciate it if he would address me as "Colonel" ; or "Sir"; I believe I've earned it.

Free will or free won't- T exas Holdem Cowboy Card Junkies In the United States Of Unconscious gambling, poker without mon ey is an opinion; and opinions about poker are just shovels we use to dig our own graves: because if you are n ot playing poker but thin king about playing poker you are already dead. 24 Hour Casinos-I Don't Have Time For That "Get Rich Click" Everyone wants to go to heaven but nobod y wants to die. Poker Zombies who are playing 24/7 just do n’t like being here in the USA all the time. Now you're gambling from home and can lose the house! while thinking you're more "in control", it becomes part of everyday living. The original name of this blog---Hotel @nyware is about location neutral internet gambling. Playing online poker insinuates its way in into our daily lives deeply and invisibly, whether by laptop, desktop or phone. Something incredible happens with poker which is never put down or can always be picked up. Gam...

God made the world, but it's held together with duct tape. Honolulu Duct Tape Sighting! I was stuck in afternoon traffic at Aloha Towers, when the engine cut out on my SAAB 900. I pulled over, as the Japanese tourists enjoying their surf and sun "brain dump" looked on in awe as Adolfus,The Beast started smoking. Would there be life after luau for these temporary colonists, Team Abunai! That's what they were screaming "Danger" in Nihongo. I opened the hood. The battery was on fire, and the cables were melting! This was not on the packaged tour---But Inspector Travelers were about to get an even bigger show when I pulled out the ultimate power tool and made Aloha graduates of them all...Let me splane... The Honolulu Fire and Police came on the scene instantly, complete with 4-year varsity letters, Portuguese last names and healed acne scars. Spot on Guys! I was expecting Steve and Danno but due to the current Writer's Guild strike, couldn't make t...

Egonomics 101---Overconfidence, Myopia and Hubris The power of mind over money is rooted in mental bias . It is our own idiosyncratic way to distort our map of reality. Just as the menu is not the meal, this map is not the territory--because everyone experiences gambling differently. When your reality check bounces---change your map. FLOUNDERS verses ROUNDERS -The difference in playing with the belief and intention of winning against just being social. For the poker Balla, nothing is better than when that average Joe Player sits down at a poker table. Why? Because he just sat down with money he INTENDS to lose! There is no more +EV situation, and most tables in a live poker room are filled with players exactly like that. When you treat No Limit Hold em as only a game of chance instead of skill, it is not a law of probability, it's a fact for games with negative expectations: Risk of ruin is 100%. A Joe plays when he "feels" like it, a Pro, all the time! Call them perpe...

The Oracle: Professor Charles- Kingsfield- Nesson's Mashed Up Pulp-Free Poker Chase--- Get your BS in Holdem-"Pimp My Harvard" Harvard Law School, the West Point of capitalism, has a little creative destruction going on at Roscoe Pound 's new student-led Poker Strategic Thinking Society ( GPSTS) , led by the mad hatter-- Professor Chuckles Nesson , the Crimson's own human hangover.Here he is putting a spin on the Confucian Idea: Give a man a fish you teach him for a day; teach him how to play poker, you don't have to teach him anything! The devil's advocate advocating for the devil---online gambling! Yea baby... Oh behave Gnarles. A great many people think they are thinking about poker when they are merely rearranging their bad habits . Part card sharks, part Mother Teresas’ it’s still nice to see the education outreach of legal elite F.O.P. Friend of Poker- Alan Dershowitz ; AND Charlie Nesson , a tweeds-to-riches—Crimson Prof high on silicon crack. The...

Being T/here in  in Hawaii has put me in a unique space ..  ...one that supported personal exploration, oneness and the mystical experiences of Huna, the Shamans about manifesting and tapping into "mana" or the life force. I have had a tremendous amount of good fortune, starting with this gig on the TV Show, Lost, and the teaching contracts I got, and my reverse commute from my condo in Ka-a-a-va (Yes that's how you spell it).  I am the hero of my own life.When I think of The Hero's Journey, refers to Joseph Campbell's basic pattern found in many narratives from around the world. The Bill MOyers Interview still rings in my ears.... It starts with sacrifice, from sacrifice comes bliss.My general formula for my students is"Follow your bliss." Find where it is, and don't be afraid to follow it. Joseph Campbell  Bill Moyers: Did you ever have the sense of... being helped by hidden hands? Joseph Campbell: All the time. It is miraculous. I even have a supe...
