sick, spiteful, etc.

lol, there's something wrong with my liver but actually even dr. honda doesn't know a damn thing about my illness. yadda yadda not trusting doctors despite being sufficiently educated so as not to be superstitious....

neko show wednesday, oh boy, excellent.

L continues to disapprove of the habit; the habit is no fun.

is it a job if you don't make any money and you also hate it?

I can't keep anything down
I hate music and life

not sure if this is choking or not

4-handed, blinds 200/400. UTG (21k stack) limps, I have TT on button and 13k behind, raise to 1550. SB (10.5k) calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

flop (5050) 733r: check, check, I bet 4k, SB pushes for 9k....

I called, he showed AA. I think this was an ok play, actually. I could fold to his CR but there are so many hands I'm beating here (99, 88, 7, AK) I don't think I can fold getting more than 3-1. well that's my gut instinct. I'll come back later and think through this more.

anyway the br has limped to 7k
the stomach is ok but the night sweats are groooos
and I was disappointed by the mountain goats show

indigestion, ok
np, did I step on your trumpet?

motherfuck

I believe I played this great, but someone should tell me if I fucked it up. (seriously, as an aside, more people need to comment on my hands. yes, this blog is all shoe leather, but it is what I do.)

earlyish in MTT, blinds 50/100. I have 2500 and open raise red 33 from the button to 275, SB has about 3500 and reraises to 450, BB folds, I call.

flop (t1000) 8s6s4c, sb bets 500, I push for 1750. he calls with KcJc, turn a J.

seriously, I know this is a marginal hand, but I was very confident in my belief that he had overs. anyone?

I did win another WSOP satellite seat, so the day was not a total loss, but man.

indigestion, no complaints. prilosec is great. CB's brother, the doctor, was right.
np, you were wrong, bts

yay area

massively grinding day. but managed to win my way into a WSOP satellite. slowplaying KK preflop in a shorthanded game? recommended.

an encomium, from a real world rerun: "X is a very attractive girl, she has a slammin' body, and she's looking to party. so I invited her home."

indigestion, yeah prilosec
