Indecision + Good Company

So after planning on playing the £150 freezeout, I did not go!! A combination of tiredness, no one else wanting to go and not enough registered players, I decided to just leave it. Would have been £200 minimum, and once I was up, showered etc just did not feel a need or any drive to go and play. (I HAVE LEARNED NEVER TO PLAY ANY DECENT GAMES IN THAT FRAME OF MIND!)

So i just went down to the local gala casino for their sunday poker (COUGH) bingo game! There are a few bad players, but a few stalwarts who I respect ;)

Made the final, busted out 6th running my AJ into lucky larry's A9 (Obviously he hits a 9 on the river) As a side note first time i've been slow rolled by a dealer, seen the 9 and took an age to turn it over!! RESULT: BUY IN MONEY BACK SAVER!! Sigh...............

Sat down at the dealers choice cash game with a few friendly faces, was a really relaxed game, and mostly 6-O was the game, or 4 card Irish it was my button :D RESULT: SMALL PROFIT (WOOOHOO, CASH GAME HOODOO BROKEN! :P)

I was really shattered when we finishd the cash game, and realised that giving Edinburgh a miss was turning out to be an even better idea, even he thought of driving home feeling like that was too much!!

What today taught me is that yeah the Dundee game is the same old scripit, a few too many donkeys, you can be too familiar with the players that it becomes mundane.

However, I had a great day and night, and it reminded me that I don't go there for the quality of the game, or the prize pool. A lot of it has to do with the social aspect, and there are a few great guys and girls there.

If only they never fell in love with top pair, I'd be even happier in their company ;)
