Fee Fie Fo Fum...

I’ve had this great idea for a horror movie.The main character is a poker player pushed over the edge by constant bad beats.He decides to set up a poker blog and eventually lures three unsuspecting Southerners to his lair on the premise of a home game before chopping 'em up and feeding them to his handsome hound,Nacho....

Looks like it’s all coming together.Juice,Mr Edge and Rosie arrive on Sat.The plan is to head out for dinner to the Auldhouse Arms on Sat evening, before meeting up the the s-man,Dudley and my cousin before heading over to the Big Chaps for some poker.We should home in plenty of time to watch the big fight from Vegas.( Hatton v Mayweather)

I’m in a better mood today after finding out that the new seating plan at my work which had me sitting next to a right nasty biatch was actually a wind up by my workmates! I fell for it hook line and sinker.The bassas! We were also told ( this time for real) that we are getting a new big boss and she wants to mix up all the teams, so I should have a new boss and new seat soon…which is nice!

Not much to report on the poker front.A few fruitless $6 games and a 3rd place in a $16 last night.I did notice someone reply to Burnley Mik on a raisetheriver thread telling him to stop whining about bad beats when he has an roi ( return on investment) of 16% at Stars turbos games.My roi is similar, but it doesn’t stop the beats from hurting when they start coming thick and fast.It’s hard to shake the feeling that if only my luck was better I could hit at least 25% roi but that’s probably me kidding myself.You can’t beat a bit of self delusion if you’re a poker player!

Ok, Back with more posts next week.Tonight the ex is coming over for dinner and to clean my flat.I’m also popping out to see a man about a dog...

Get me out of here!

Thanks to all who commented on yesterdays post.Very much appreciated.I think tiredness,a bad wee run and being on a downer in general didn't help my mood when writing it, but I hope some humour came across too.

I had a rotten day at work yesterday and spent time in discussion with my boss over a few things.I'm feeling far better today, but didn't even eat anything yesterday until after 8 pm last night and at some points during the day I really felt as if I'd just about had enough.

I detest my job and company, but the pay is half decent and despite my sister nagging me to look elsewhere I reckon I'm stuck here for another 30 years!

Between that and dealing with staying on my own again, life could be much better.I've enjoyed the last couple of weekends though,visiting the s-man and going out for a swally last Friday.I'm also really looking forward to Rosie,Juice and Mr Edge visiting this weekend and to meeting up with Dudley,my cousin and the s-man for some live poker.Hopefully we'll be back in time to watch the big Hatton V Mayweather fight late on Sat night.

On the poker front I've not played too much.I managed to win a $6 ,18 player turbo the other night ( crashed out the other) and last night I crashed out of one and scraped into the money in the other.I also lost $30 at 365 after running a completely unbelievable bluff at a cash table!

Just eaten a nice healthy Burger King and I'm ready to hit the tables....
