Not long ago I suffered a dissected aorta. Needless to say, it changed my life completely. I've been pretty much confined to my home except for occasional doctor visits. I am in almost constant pain and have little to no stamina. I've found that normally I can do well early in tournaments but when the pain catches up with me I fade rather quickly. I've changed from normal tourneys to sit&goes, which has helped with my stamina issues quite a bit. I still find myself drawn to CC's freerolls which I know I can't complete, but the allure of playing overides my common sense and I can't resist playing with you people. I enjoy it too much. So if you see me in a game making not so wise decisions later in the tourney, please try to understand I'm not trying to be a DONK, I'm just a sick old man who enjoys competing with you all as long as my health allows and am having a hard time giving up one of the few things I can still enjoy, that being my Cardschat games and the people who play here. Bless you all for your patience.

Why does this sound like some High School Biology class got a hold of you?

Seriously, take care of yourself. Who cares if you get tired and donk out of a CC freeroll as long as you're enjoying yourself that's all that matters.

Play a more aggressive game.. Either play more hands with small ball or take a page out of supersystem and be real aggressive on draws. use the pain to ur advantage and channel it. any questions on small ball email me.
