Secret Santa

Well ex Mrs A called last night when I was on the way home to say I could get a meal from her work.( chow mein).When she arrived home after work she mentioned she'd defrost some meatballs and I could cook some pasta with them for tonights dinner,( She's working again)so possibly her attitude seems to have defrosted a little too since yesterday.

The comments from Juice and SJS were very much appreciated and you both made some very good points.It's great to have such support and words like "very much appreciated" don't really convey how grateful I am for the time you lads ( and people who have commented previously) have taken out to read and respond.


I don't think I am harbouring any hopes of staying together and in truth although it would be tempting to slip back into that comfort zone,I'm not sure I'd want to, even if it was up to me.Juices point about it maybe just not working out is a good one and to be honest I'm don't think ( for whatever reason)I did try hard enough to save our relationship.I also think the lack of communication from ex Mrs A showed she didn't try too hard either.

SJS makes a good point about how moving out would show her I've accepted the situation, and I reckon even if I don't move out, I can maybe start to talk more about my plans, and move things on from the "let me know if you change your mind about us" conversation from last month.

To the poker and I have to confess to playing on a secret Santa account since I deposited £25 into a crypto skin last weekend.The idea was that if I'm not reporting results here then I'll feel more free to take a shot and gamble a bit more.To that end I won't be including my account total there as part of my main bankroll but will say that so far so good!

The reason for mentioning it is that I've been enjoying playing their Headhunter tourney where half the prize pool is used to provide bounties on everyones head and this is paid when you knock a player out.I've only played two and haven't knocked anybody out yet but the strategy adaptions are interesting.There seems to be less fold equity especially as a shortstack and the temptation to enter a pot with almost any two can be great when you know there are bounties at stake.

I also played an hour at Party $50nl last night and finished about even after a few ups and downs.

Ok, the S-man is on his way over shortly so that's all for now...
