    Playing free poker has its entertaining qualities and will also give me a good place to find a story to tell you. I was playing at an A.P.L. event when I got to talking to the table about why people play hands that they should lay down.

     I found myself playing as a bounty in the Drop-N-Aces / TDPro Invitational on January 11, 2009.
     
    This was a major change for me; I am not used to playing with a bounty on my head.  I did not think it would change my play. Boy, was I wrong!

    Some people think that poker is a way of life; I refuse to buy into that plan.

    I will agree that there are some life lessons in poker, like never gamble your life savings or that you are invincible. But sometime you need to go with your inner donkey!

    I will be the first to admit that this hand is about as donkey as it gets, but I had one of those feelings.

    Bruce Lee was and maybe is the greatest martial artist of all time. As a child, I loved to watch his movies. One movie always stands out: "Enter the Dragon". This movie is a classic; no other movie of its type can compare!You might be asking yourself why I am writing about Bruce Lee and his movies. Well, I must confess that I might not have Bruce Lee mad skills. However, I do possess the power of the "Donkey". Just ask my friends!
