please mind the step

correct, i am away on another works overnighter. back in good old alnwick, just the one night though, and its a silent "L" and silent "W" just in case you were wondering ....

nice hotel with a great power shower. as i stepped out the bathroom i stumbled and thought "where the fuck did that step come from ?" i turned and looked at the bathroom door .... thats when i noticed the sign .... sigh :)
been working in Newark these past couple weeks so been with the family most nights and weekends .... zagga, nip round and see if my ek house is still standing, please :)

of course family and poker do not mix well at all.
telling her to go see to the screaming kid because i am involved in a 73c life or death draw just dont seem to cut it .... no idea why !

as you can tell i am still micro stake grinding the pl08b on stars .... which is going not to bad .... but a win rate of 20bb per hour hell, even 50bb per hour takes a fucking long time to increase the old roll by anything vaguely interesting.

i did have one interesting hand last night and thank your lucky stars the hh is on the home machine !! so from memory ....

quite literally just sat down with my usual $3 ....

dealt A2xx suited and i min raise from early .... gets reraised and then reraised again .... i'm thinking wtf ? as they aint normally so aggro pre at this level on stars .... lol i gotta call

4 see the flop flop leaves me the nut low draw and the nut flush draw ....

i potted it for a buck and fuck me the other three called ....

turn gives me nut low and nut flush .... fuck it, all-in for me ....

and fuck me i get three callers (one guy was a shortie)

river .... and the board paired, shit

really thought i'd lost the high and was getting quartered on the low ....

then one by one .... they mucked their hands .... honestly wtf ?

so i scoop high and low for a truly mammoth $9.73 .... 480 odd bb .... seriously. wtf ?

now, if i could get that kinda "luck" at $1/$2 .... hell, even 10c/25c
