Fold under pressure
Hello, I hope everyone’s doing great. Can you believe it’s Thursday already? Frankly everytime I wake up and realize it’s not the weekend yet, a little piece of me dies. ![]()
Poker last night, and Blacky did the impossible with wins back-to-back. I picked up a second place last night, and negotiated my way into the money, doubling up my tournament stake of $10 to $20. Blacky took fiddy. The highlight for me was cleaning out Leyton on the first hand he played. We started while he was in the shower, and just folded all his hands until he was ready to join the table. I had KQ and the flop paired my Queen as top pair. Hit trips on the turn and made the full house on the river. Unfortunately, it also made Leyton’s straight, so that finished him up.
I also had a post surgery Dr appointment yesterday, the upshot of which is that I’ve lost 26kg since 04/Jan, which I’m pretty pleased with. I’ve also discovered the joys that can be had with tins of soup and a blender
The more expensive canned soups are actually not so bad, and when blended to a liquid are - in some cases - even better. Today I blew $30 on soup. Hehe, that’ll get me sick of soups in a pretty short space of time.
Anyway, it’s Brenden day at work today, so I’d better get back to it or he’ll sack me. :p
