Hijack vs btn, I look aggro pre yet have folded to some raises post. AK TPTK on A57flushdraw. I 3bet call it off for 80bb, he has a set.
yeah, maybe I should learn from daut.
Met up with some other NZ ballers: brynesam, vic, R_i and played guitar hero.
Biggest brag, got a bag of gear:
I'm going to look so cool walking into the local casino wearing all of this at once.
not at all cheesy, the pokerstars shark
last but not least the bag included the pokerstars branded girlfriend + Show Spoiler +
good fun overall, Appt organisers were really good people, esp nick.
So being the pro gambler that I am, I took an opportunity to to gamble today while on the flat shopping trip.
At the checkout my flatmate was sure that the total bill for the flat shop would be over $300, I thought it looked close.
He claimed he was 100% positive, so I offered him $1 to his $10. He says "not worth it". I offered $10 to $100. He was reluctant.
I say "So in reality you are less than 90% sure of the over."
"No, I'm 100% sure."
"Easy ten bucks then."
"ok, fine." we shake on it.
Checkout girl gives a little smile.
The bill runs up quickly, meat and canned goods going through first. But as bread, TP and veggies finished the haul, the bill is on $291. The last item is a tray of eggs, boom, it nudges it over to $301.
I curse it out and had over the $10, but then my other flatmate remembers that we have yet to use the store loyalty/coupon card. A roar goes up from the spectators! The card knocks it down to $297.
VICTORY!
...only he's not interested in paying up. I get my $10 back and the excuses start. That I forced him into the bet (haha) and so on.
I think the bet was a good one, I just made a mistake in thinking that for $100 he would definitely honour the bet. He did seems like a trustworthy guy, I've flatted with him for over a year. Maybe should have added in a significant % chance of default to my EV calcs?
Any further action I could take now would be too destructive to flatting environment? probably just going to ask firmly and argue a bit more, light harass, but other than that...
Won't be betting with him again.
sustained combustion! so awesome to hit the hands needed preflop and win every flip.
I actually overslept, free rolls start at 6am my time. didn't start playing this tourney till I was blinded down from 1500 to 1300.
Where is the lightning to lick you with its tongue? Where is the
frenzy with which ye should be inoculated?
Lo, I teach you the Superman: he is that lightning, he is that
frenzy!
...Sombre is human life, and as yet without meaning: a buffoon may be
fateful to it.
I want to teach men the sense of their existence, which is the
Superman, the lightning out of the dark cloud: man.
