Don't you hate KK.....

Was up early this morning as needed to go and buy some stuff for my holiday next week. Also was on the net just before 9.00am as tickets for one of my fave bands The Mission (goth rockers) went on sale. They are doing a pretty cool series of gigs next February/March where for 4 nights they play in full a different album plus b-sides from singles and live favourites from that time! Fantastic idea I think. The albums are - Gods Own Medicine, The First Chapter, Children, Carved in Sand. Now as a big Mission fan it was hard to decide which to go and see (I guess I should have gone to see them all) but decided on Carved in Sand after changing my mind from Gods Own Medicine. One of the reasons was that the Carved in Sand gig is on a Saturday (and it does have some absolutely storming tracks on it) so I'll have the Sunday to recover from a drunken night in the mosh pit....cooooooooooool

Also had my usual Saturday flutter on the footy, following tips from the Punters Pal (i.e ruddock from the laddies forum). 4 x trebles and an accumlator on Newcastle, Sheff Utd, Swansea and Peterborough. Returns around £30 for a £2.50 stake so nothing big but adds a bit of fun to the footy. This the 4th week of the season and following the Punters Pal has drawn a blank so far, so we are due a win!

Well, here we go again backto the grind. Bit of an up and down session which ended on a down, unfortunately. Got up to over $3 at one point. Had a few cards today, AA 3 times, including twice in two hands and all 3 held up for smallish pots -I think to have a winning session you just need to have a big hand against another big hand and hope it holds up. Also had wins with JJ and 88 but it was bloody KK which was no good today......

That was not pleasant but could have been a lot worse if he was stacked. So overall I played 94 hands and decided to cut my losses and finished down $1.43 for the session. Still in profit overall though.

Update: Have been watching the Barcelona EPT on the web which is excellent so decided to play a tourney for fun where it wouldnt matter if I didnt concentrate so played the laddies 5.00pm $250 freeroll. Managed to get into the top 130 where the money starts out of 1992 when I picked up JJ

Talk about hitting the flop. Second time today I've lost a pot when my opponent hit a full house on the flop.
