Yea it is kinda cool, only 900 people live here, all on short term contracts with one of the organisations. Nobody has permanent residency status. Its like being on holiday all year, weather is warm, sea is great, beer is cold. Ascension is a small rock half way between Namibia and Brazil just below the equator smack in the middle of the ocean. My kids love it they are able to wander free, no strangers, no crime, no problems. 100 kids on the island so plenty of people to play with.

Anyway back to poker. Sometimes (quite often) I am a real moron. Last night was one of those. Played a HORSE tournie and an 8-game Bubble boy in both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 19th out of 160 and 27th out of 285. worse I had plenty of chips in both ended up blowing them all on crappy hands i should have just folded.

(played a bit of cash won $0.20. playing .50/$1 STUD H/L) only 60 more points for silver star.
