Cricket's more like this:

over a tiny sample of hands played when I can't be bothered to play serious poker, I seem to be a winning PLO8 player

indeed. although you cant get disqualified from a medal if you arent good* enough to have a chance to win it.

where did they by the timing equipment for these games anyway? from "Dodgy Dans Store of cheap assed second hand sporting equipment supplies" apparently.

*you only have to be good enough to beat those who are actually competing.

Book arrived today, thanks Sputum.

Which is a touch as I have a day off work and have been persuaded to drive gf and her sister to Lakeside. Think I'll find myself a coffee shop instead of trailing round shops.

I'd ask with what, but I'm not sure I want to know or you want to say. So... dysfunctional families gonna dysfunctional?

When it comes to certain things, drinkin's better than thinkin'. Try to focus on other things, IMO.

The answer is a sports bar in every shopping centre, the woman can then go shopping and take as long as they want without the men caring.

I've long thought this was an excellent idea at outlet malls in the US.

And yeah, that's what I'll do, thanks.

I support the idea of sports bars in malls all the way.

GF passed her test about 14 years ago and didn;t drive after that until I moved to London about 10 years ago. I took her out 3 times, and on the third she popped my tyre. I shouted, she's never driven since. Now it's justa confidence thing, but I'm determined to get her driving soon.

GF's sister failed her first test earlier this year otherwise I would put her on my insurance and stay at home.

On the plus side I'm now half way through the book.

i've come to a conlucsion that 50k hands on any site is my max. after that i dont know what happens but im leaving 3rd site after i reached 50k hands. i know thats nothing, for you pros around here who log in 150k a month, but it took me half a year to get to 50k and doomswitch is at its finest after 50k, happened on all three sites. so, idk how much more i'd need to play to kill the doomswitch, since i havent played more than a few k's over 50k on any site, but after that point its unbarrable and i cannot control myself afterwards.

Women are such slow learners.
