Hot Streak?


I am currently on top of 2 different leader boads:

http://www.petedpoker.com/fulltiltpoker/mbj/mbj_nlhe_season5.html

http://chimpspokerseries.com/season3.aspx


Does that mean I am playing better/good, or just getting luckier? Probably a little of both. I think when doing well on a leader board of this type, I make an "extra" effort not to go out too early in an applicable tourney.


These are both well run series, so feel free to get in!

Memorable quotes for
"The Office"
Booze Cruise (2006)

Jim Halpert: Kevin, do you have any ideas where I should go on my vacation?
Kevin: You should go to hedonism.
Jim Halpert: Hedonism? What's that?
Kevin: I heard it's like Club Med, but everything is naked!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michael Scott: In an office, manager ranks higher than captain. On a boat, who knows? It's nebulous.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dwight Schrute: Don't worry Michael, I'm taking us to shore!
Michael Scott: It's a fake wheel, dummy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michael Scott: I see the sales department as a furnace.
Phyllis: A furnace?
Jim Halpert: How old is this ship?
Pam Beesley: How about the anchor?
Phyllis: What does the furnace do?
Michael Scott: Let's not get hung up about the furnace, it's just, I see the sales department are down there, they are in the engine room, and they are shoveling coal into the furnace, right? I mean, who saw the movie Titanic? They were very important in the movie Titanic. Who saw it? Show of hands.
Jim Halpert: Not really sure what movie you're talking about. Are you sure you got the title right?
Michael Scott: Titanic.
Pam Beesley: I think you're thinking of "The Hunt for Red October."
