I had a lot of positive feedback for my first blog post. I got several text messages and even an email. There was even a screenshot sent to me from two unnamed (admins) showing the extreme displeasure of their ranking from last week. Let’s call this admin “kyle”. No, that’s too obvious- let’s call him “ Mr OB.” Many new players came in to say hi at the tables, and it’s even got me some more HU action. Overall I’m very pleased with the reaction. I even got a phone call today about a players ranking.

I’ve had a lot of time to take notes at the tables and get to know each of you a little better. I’ve even got master spreadsheet where I weigh in six different poker disciplines to come up with my formula. this, as with any algorithm will need to be adjusted going forward. But if I’m going to do this I’m going to do it right.

I’ve also had a lot of people interested in me starting a stream, which is something I’m working on right now. In the meantime, if you’re not watching the flow show, you’re missing out.

Since I’m on the wait list for some action tonight, I had some time to finalize my rankings tonight. For the following grinders, I’m sorry I don’t have the info on you to rank you. suitedUp, RonaldReagan, Edollo, neverquit. If you had a PP name, sorry, too many pp names, change your shit.

Here are this week's rankings.

29-kbuzzing -3 (actually better, but asked to be ranked lower)
