A Textured and Colourful Week
December 22, 2006
It has been a “textured” week, as Mr Lederer would say.With more ups than downs.A very slight hang over this morning, nothing too spectacular, just enough of one to put me off facing any kind of breakfast other than hot steaming mugs of Java.
Molasses and Sunday afternoon’s
November 26, 2006
Well, anyone who has read the blog regularly will have noticed a trend. That being, I seem to play most of the league games half asleep.I managed to up the ante last Friday night and actually played whilst asleep! I kid you not, about 35 minutes into the game I felt my eyes closing. So I did the usual thing of lighting a smoke and sitting myself up in the chair, blink rapidly and a shake of the head and then I am usually good for a while longer using this technique. Usually.
Not this time though. Just before the hour mark I snapped awake as the “beep” from the poker site was timing me out on my bet. Urgh, Ok I resign myself to the fact that I really am not going to win this battle. The hourly 5 minute break comes and I say goodnight to everyone and drag myself off to brush my teeth and to bed. Leaving my average sized chip stack to the vultures to pick over.

Did I say back Wednesday? I of course meant Thursday.
This’ll be a double header, both Thursday’s and Friday’s posts in one.
No Play Today
November 15, 2006
Well, ……truth be told I wasn’t “Fully Wide Awake” when the game kicked off in the league game this evening. It was Omaha H-Lo again and I just didn’t fancy playing it. Probably the first game I have not entered when sitting at the computer all ‘poker-ready’ so to speak.
I ain’t played much Omaha before, in fact I only started a couple of weeks ago, when there were no other games around and I just click-joined a league game. Then promptly sailed through to the final table, in complete ignorance of how I ever got there. Pestering the guys in the chat room all the time with, “is this a good hand?”, “what’s a good hand?” or a “how come I won that?” etc…
