We're having a freezeout tonight!

Better half is having a girlie night with friends on a Twilight marathon with wine.

Sounds like a good time to escape to the casino for tonights £20+2 buyin that I've had so much success with.  Its a bit of a weird tournament, in that I hate the fact that it is 10 handed tables, which basically means your strategy is; NIT NIT NIT, dropping anything weaker than AQo, 88+ and playing the hands aggressively, coupled with any opportunities based on observation of other players.

Please god let this not be a "everyone limp into the pot" table again, that was excruciating last time, but lucrative until I overvalued top 2 pair against somebodies idiot end of the straight, stupid me making 54o a +EV play.  Everytime I raised, the whole table muttered to themselves!
Made me wonder whether they were playing a different variation of poker to me.

I say nit (ultra-tight) but frankly I'll have to see how the table dynamics go.  I also made a new promise to myself, "Do not go bust on a pair", if I have AKo on a K 8 2 rainbow board, don't call the all-in, let it go and wait for a better spot if they bluff that way.  I have a tendancy sometimes to feel internally indignant that someone could outflop AK in that situation.

Finishing work early to prepare (ie. shower), thank god.  Struggling to cope with the bizarre antics of landlords and tenants.
Tenant today has given away all the furniture to her brother.  For no real reason.  Hilarity ensues.

Landlord has decided that maybe she shouldn't try to keep the whole security bond for a scratch on a table, when she "forgot" to renew the very very important gas safety certificate since the tenant moved in, and the tenant turns out to be a litigation solicitor in a bad mood.  Hilarity ensues.

WHEN I cash tonight, I think a treat is in order for the weekend.

Alternatively my next post will be some sort of spitting incomprehensible rant about somebody calling KK with A4 and winning.
