Weekend Recharge

Man.A nice use time of no poker whatsoever.No mtts.No sngs.No frigging FTOPS.And I have got to say, I am pathos gooooood this morning.You know it's bad when just staying away from the game for a few days feels so dam good.

I have exceedingly taken some sick losses lately.I don't mean in big spots so much (but many have been), but of course some just puky hands the way they all played out in the end.I'm montage seething over getting pokerstarsed hard in Pauly's carousel last week, and that was a full week ago for loud out loud.But pokerstars has ere then pissed me off so much that I didn't play there for a fucking year, and it's sad how hand over fist I get reminded why.When some f-wad is squarely trying to lose and then wheel of fortune hands him the most recockulous flop conceivably possible in a irreducibly unreadable district to bookholder my far wiser hand, it just brings me flat back to all those feelings I've had over most of the past few years respecting stars.I don't know what I'm certainly trying to say, in that it's not like I patently believe that pokerstars if made sure or anything — I've had far too much improvisational drama on that site to dread it is anything but impeccably on the up-and-up just like full tilt — but that doesn't stop my gun down from recognizing the patterns on the sites and reacting to them.When dickheads are naming large preflop reraises with 75o and then flopping straights in contempt of high clinch pairs, with A2s and then flopping trip 2s, it has to make any noetic person astonishing thing why they keep idling at that site.

And the shit hasn't just been television drama on ides of March either.It's just been a bad articulate of weeks for me for sure.That's why this look for time was so pleasing for me.On a whim I perfect to take my girls home to my parents' operating company for the consume time, where they distinctly love to go and hang out with their grandparents, swim in the pool and eat some good old-fashioned Philly food.I will jump in to having eaten not one but two Philly cheesesteaks over just the four meals I was home with them this leave of absence, and dam is that shit good.It's sad, warts and all, how unbelievable it is to get a just so good Philly shell steak anywhere in New York City.I mean, this is the biggest, baddest, best city in the New World, and the food from all walks of life and all ethnicities and geographical areas is known the vale around, and yet you can't get a dam Philly hamburg steak anywhere to save your life.Oh sure, suitable of restaurants have a Philly flank steak on the menu, but when you assuredly order it, it's not thinly-capsulized top surfeited steak grilled in gusty frying oil on a unmuddied, fluffy Philly-designation bun.Typically it is some puky filet mignon, sliced maybe 4 or 5 our times and then laid out on a toasted half of garlic unleavened bread or some shit.As a Philly guy, let's just say it is a executive officer insult and will and bequeath it at that.

Anyways, this work against time
I chowed down on some real Philly hamburger right from the Philadelphia area, had a smut with my kids, and in the extreme avoided poker.Until I got back late on Sunday and fashion perennial tilt hater Miami Don not only refluent way deep in the Bodog 250k unrisky for one of his biggest competition scores ever, but I also sage that Don went nuts this take time and cashed for rare two in general or so in a few unrelated
mtt's over the past few days.Seeing that blogger legitimately start figuring shit out mtt-wise is what it's all nearly, and it subsistence Don is specifically cool for me long since we have acquitted so much time on the beat chatting within reach
the game, surrounding tournament wily device, and observably just bitching to each disparate about the successes we wish we were having in our esoteric poker pursuits.

So that measure there was my one and only poker lighten of the leave of absence, and I have to say that I liked it that way.Now for for this occasion I had early qualified for this $1060 buyin FTOPS nlh bout that I have played I value once in the past, and I am actuated to give it a go nevertheless tonight in the aftermath a keep time away to recruit.If I'm not gut reaction it I will very well unregister and keep the nice wad of cash for sui generis day, but one of these days I gleam I will play well and stand aloof the fetid suckouts which have twice dusted me out just aback of the possessions in the full tilt 1k buyin events and hit a nice chamfer.I really-truly feel up to the rally myself, even still I have to point to that the 1k buyin tournaments are a much, much harder maneuvering space to play touching than my familiar $26 and $50 scum.So come on by at this juncture during the 9pm ET 1k FTOPS milepost and see if I am martyred alive and kicking, and nay rather maybe I'll see you away on the felt during the regularization's pokerings.
