Chick is having trouble getting n the forums. The crazy thing is, on her computer, it looks like no one has posted in days so I'm sure she won't see this post. Has anyone had this happen before and if so, what did you do to rectify it? Thanks.

Dotsie, this has happened to me three times! That's why the; Edelweiss3. The only way I could get back in was to sign in as a new member with a new email address. Chick can get a new free email address under Yahoo.com.

This is really strange. I think there must be some hang-up with the program. I haven't seen Gims around lately either. I wonder if she has the same problem? I remember Lola having log in problems too.

This is odd. I thought it was only with our friends over the pond.

Has anyone heard from gims by email?

No, but I just sent her one.

hmmm...the email address doesn't exist anymore.

EdelweissIII---PM me the email address you used. Could be there is another one.

Houston, I had a problem. Nope. Not log-in problems. I have been phished and my network's security was compromised twice since I dropped in last.

And then, there is work...and babysitting.

NEVER LOG OFF!!! That is finally what I started doing over a year or more ago. It's when you log off that sometimes its impossible to get back in so just NEVER LOG OFF!!! It doesn't hurt anything and this way you don't experience the stress of not being able to get back in...

Once logged in, add the site to your FAVORITES, then daily just open the favorites, click onto BWS forum and whalla, in like Flynn!!! Trust me, this works!!!!

I'm back. I had to come in the back door. I can't read posts from my usual spot and my little envelope keeps flashing from a week old PM. I've missed you all and had withdrawl.
I had a poker week like no other. I won 7 days straight...............

Wuhoo! The Chickster is bacccccck!

JJ I sent a tester PM to you. Did u get it?

YEP...and responded

Chick,
Congratulations! Glad you won so many poker hands!!! I love cards
but nobody around here plays, much anymore. My 1st husband's family played a lot of cards. Do you play Euchre? Love Euchre.
Geese, I'll have to ask groovyuklass if she plays.

Thanks Jabber. I haven't [layed Euchre in years but I loved it.
JJ, I am not receiving my PM's. And my little envelope blinks all the time....

Chick, when you click on the blinking envelop, what happens?

I get the last blinkin message you sent me last week. And the new one I sent you just now doesn't exist on mine anymore.

Chick? Is that you?
Sending kisses to all vegetarians!!!!Wooooeeeee!






Congratulations on your wins!
You're on a roll! Hope not on a chicken one,
heh heh.

Chick, did this start when you loaded that new avatar?

Thanks EW. I can't pm you either. I am gonna change my Avatar and see if it's the culprit JJ. I think it was around that same time that this happened.

Nope...same thing.

whoa Chickadee, you be my new best rich friend?

Chickster...check it now.

No PM. And nothing else has changed.

No, what I mean is check and see if the PM thing is still flashing. Is it? Is that what you meant by "no PM?"

Still flashing. Could you Send me a PM to see if I get it?

Soon Meredith....soon. The Next World Series of Poker I hope.The last one paid the winner $9,152,416. I can do that!

and I'll fly/taxi everyone in the watch me...

I can't wait until you are able to compete Chickadee. First you can dazell them with your cuteness and then knock 'em dead, and take no prisoners.!!!

Thanks Chatty. Can you imagine getting paid 9 million for a few days work?

I am still practicing 8 hrs a day and playing several more. Yesterday I won again.

A while back I started my own poker journal and tried to find what works and doesn't work for me. Looks like I have found my happy medium.

I am thinking about starting a Poker Forum - Women only. Any name suggestions?

Chatty do you really think I'm cute?

So what would you do with 9 million chick? How about a visit to Germany?

Here are some suggestions for your Poker Forum for Ladies;

QUEENS beat the KINGS!

Ace with Lace

Ladies Full House

Diamonds and Aces are a Girl's Best Friend

Ace with lace sounds nice.

How about LIP Service
LIP = Ladies in Poker

Everything is back to normal with getting onto the site now. Must have been a glitch I guess.

chick, did you do anything differently to get back in, or did it all of the sudden work?

Do you want us to vote on your forum title?

Remember just never log off of the site and you'll never have a problem.

It just all of a sudden worked. I don't know if my PM receiving works yet though. Someone PM me and I'll know.

Just did...twice.

No PM's coming through.

Well DRAT, that means you didn't get the two I sent either.

Chick, you can always do as I did;...rename yourself Chick2...

Chatty no Pm's from anyone. EW if I rename won't I lose all my posts from over the years?

I am almost afraid to post this but here goes. I am winning poker sixteen days straight! A few weeks ago I decided to take yet another serious look at myself and what I wanted to do about my game. I am always trying to find ways to improve. I really am committed to my goal.

Anyway...I think I have found the secret to winning. Shhh...can't say here. I have a journal about what works or doesn't work for me. I've read the books but there is something missing...thsy don't tell you HOW to win. So I post in my journal about what "I" think is correct contrary to the books, online info etc.

I was going to post this a few days ago a thought I might jinx myself ha ha. ( We poker players are a suspicious bunch.)

I decided to act like a Pro, think like a Pro and just BE a Pro.

I am one more step closer to being the world's best Pro Lady of Poker. EW I may steal that nickname ACE with LACE for myself.

Wish me luck.

chick, this is such great news. I recall seeing you play and know how serious you are about this. I love your new approach. It shows determination, creativity and guts. Keep up the good work.

Do you ever play online for money?

I have a friend whose son used her credit card to play online. BIG TROUBLE when the bill came and she was unaware! He's still living, but no longer gambling online!

Thank You Dotsie. I guess my profession is a little odd for a woman my age.

I would NEVER use my money online. I win freeroll tournaments online and they pay me THEIR money. I use it to join other tournaments and win THEIR money. I have a little bankroll built up from using THEIR money.(which is technically mine now)

NEVER NEVER NEVER Play Poker with your money online.

Hey Ace with Lace! You go girl!!!!

Just got this quote in my email today, and thought it is appropiate:

Quote of the Day
"I'm a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it."
– Thomas Jefferson

I love that quote, EW, and ain't it so? Here another;

Luck is what you have left over after you give 100 percent - Langston Coleman

YOU, Chick, ALWAYS give 100%. It's who you are. You're already a champion in my book, girl.

chick, so there are sites where you can play for free and win cash? That's amazing. Where do you go to play each day? I find this fascinating.

I'm so thanful to have your support girls. Adding another day to winning. I might have a T shirt made with Ace with Lace. Maybe I'll Rhinestone my Denim jacket back with it. I'll post a pic.

One of my all time favorites that keeps me working hard is Repetition is the Mother of skill.

It costs 100,000 dollars to enter the WSOP. I am working on winning a free online or liveplay tournament that costs a few hundred that pays a seat to the winner. Can you imagine paying 100,000 and losing the first hand...it happens.

Dotsie,I am on a poker forum with a guy who owns it called drcheckraise whom I know personally. We are a group that gets freerolls exclusive to us. Many big poker sites do this for us because we are skilled players.

Fulltilt poker site also has freerolls and I have made money there.

Drcheckraise and Donkeykong are 2 of the best players around and they respect me at the table.I can bluff them both (on occassion) and they haven't caught on...yet. Donkeykong is from Texas and is probably the best I've met in the non pro group.I get some good information from playing with him when he is in town.

I have met many pros when we have big events and have a white jacket with their signatures on it. As I meet then, I pull out my sharpie and ask them to sign it.

I play at the Cherokee Casino in Tulsa. I don't pay for a thing while I'm there. All comps.

Chick I love that name LACE It's sexy sounding and feminine, easy to remember and at the same time a good name for ads/posters/t-shirts, jackets etc. too.

Hows it going? Are you back to winning? I have my fingers crossed.

I am winning but not like I was before. It was amazing. I am taking a day off to stay fresh for next time.

chick, is there anything that you believe brings you luck, or do you not believe in luck?
