If you don't like hand histories, don't read this

I played in Poker Stars Bloggers Championship on Sunday and finished in 291st of 1473. I was never much of a factor although I would have been above par had I won the hand that crippled me. I think I was a favorite. You decide. I'm Clinkscale.

Well, you were a favorite until the fourth club. Anyone can play that way. BORING!

Actually, even after the 4th club came out, he was a 3:1 favorite.

Fourth club on the board. Don't mess with me Rusty. I will math you SO hard.
