Rare Regret

Kristian Huselius has singlehandedly cost me about $100 in fantasy winnings this past week. What stings the most is the fact that I had him on my roster, only to make a last minute change. Of course he rings up 1G-4A last night. Dumbass.

I guess the SAT prep course advice is true - go with your first response.

I decided to try the PokerStars echecks bonus. I've been clearing it playing LO8, I'm halfway done after 2 days. Although Stars raised prices in their FPP store, I've noticed a few things since I last played there:

- The O8 tables are 10-handed instead of 9-handed on Full Tilt. This means you pay less average rake per orbit.

- The play (at more modest levels) is much looser than FTP. I attribute this to Stars' international marketing. It seems they have much more non-USA players.

I think Stars VIP is financially more attractive than FTP with rake back. This may take a little number crunching to confirm, but I'm developing a plan for the new year.

Also, nice try Buffalo Bills. Brian Moorman made two all-pro plays (reverse punting for the safety, fake punt & rush for 1st down) followed by two horrible shank punts. This sums up their season - inconsistency. Still, they performed FAR beyond my expectations.
