High On Poker

Back from Atlanta and my day trip to AC, I’m already thirsting for more pokery action. Yesterday, I found myself daydreaming about the good old Tuna Club days, when I could reliably find a game running on most days within easy distance from my home and office. Now, I hear rumblings of various new underground games, but none seem to have the convenience or familiarity that I’m looking for.

That leaves me to play online, which has been going fairly well. Last night was horrid, with an 0-6 run in SuperTurbo 6-person SNGs, followed by an 0-4 run in 45-person or higher Turbo SNGs. After that bad run (first, I had a decent run to cushion some of those losses), I decided to hang it up for the night, content in knowing that if I kept playing, I’d likely just be chasing my losses. Yes, online poker humbles me yet again. Still, I’m enjoying it for what it is, and I have had some other online successes lately, so yesterday was definitely the exception, and not the rule.

When I heard that wifey Kim wanted to spend Saturday with the girls, I pretended to grumble while I was also quietly texting my crew about a poker game or round of golf. Neither really seems to be coming together, so I’m trying to figure out my alternative plans. Am I possibly going to take a solo bus trip to AC for the day? Why yes. It’s looking more and more likely. Anyone care to join? I’m sure we’ll bump into Dawn there!

Until next time, make mine poker.
