Stick one in it!

That's right.

There were a ton of people at the tourney, too bad most of them were haters.
I knew what would happen, and it did. Either I win it, or I get sucked out on. I don't have the hand history, but there were plenty there to see me trap Miss Maudie, and watch her push in her chips needing runner runner. She got it and that's cool. I like Miss Maudie, I read her, and I've got her link up at Poker Perspectives. I left afterwards because I was kind of pissed again. As usual. I finished my beer, went out and hit the heavy bag for about 15 minutes, and then grabbed another beer.

I was supposed to play Jordan tomorrow night, but something came up.

Let's stick a big blue veiner in cancer tomorrow night. I got this email. Cancer has become a big part in my life, and I would like to knock the shit out of it.

A little about Leah, from Chad:

This tournament is being held to raise funds to help out my good friend Leah. On Tuesday February 7, 2006, Leah was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a very rare form of bone cancer. Medically, Ewing’s Sarcoma is best summed up as a cancerous tumor that attaches itself to a bone and destroys it. As I could not find Canadian statistics on this I will use USA stats. In the USA, there are only 150 new cases reported in a year. Of those 150 cases, only 9% affect Leah’s age group of 20 to 30 which is the oldest age group affected. Treatment of Ewing’s Sarcoma includes chemo, radiation and surgery to remove the tumor.

On a more devastating note, this form of cancer can result in amputation of limbs or even death.

Leah is a vibrant, confident, caring, beautiful woman who would do anything for anyone of her friends. She is the exact type of person who does not deserve to be going through this. Leah lives in Regina, Saskatchewan and because of this, she needs to travel to Calgary, Alberta for treatment. Her boyfriend Barry will be going with her standing beside her through every thing. The costs of both of them being away from work and living in hotels in a completely different province will be substantial at best.

I couldn’t think of two more deserving and devoted friends who need our help. I want to personally thank you for joining this fundraising tournament to help my friend Leah through this difficult time. She really needs to focus on getting healthy and should not have to worry about the financial burden this will cause.
