What? An update?

haha, i got outplayed at poker today which made me placed 4th instead of higher in a sit 'n go. The short stack with 1700 raised from the small blind from 100 to 200. Me (with A 10 offsuit) and another called. The flop was 4s 7h 10d. The small blind check. I decided to put him all in leaving me with 600 in chips. The other folded. He called and showed a set of 10's and I was virtually out (the blinds went up to 100/200 after that).

Nice hand. It will haunt me for a while..

In better news, I'm once again first in the poker league with my friends. I was head to head with about 700 in chips when the blinds were 50/100. My nemesis was the big stack with about 4k. My 3 all ins where I managed to beat him were:

1) My Jd10d vs his AKoffsuit (all in preflop, rivered a flush)

2) After the flop of 6 8 9, I went all in with 7 K. Nemesis called with 2 pair (8 9). (I rivered a 5)

3) All in preflop. My Kc 9c against his A 7 offsuit. (I rivered a straight)

So as you can see I outplayed him all the way and deserved the win (and to reclaim top position). Arsenal will also hold top position this week with a 1-0 win against Chelsea. How can Chelsea score without Drogba and Essien?

It's Finished!!

I finally got my ass into gear and finished the finance newsletter I've been writing. Hopefully it can take off, but I need You to read it! As an incentive, I'm offering $25  NZ bank accounts to people who read it and tell me what they think (for the first 15ppl). If you want to read it, email me (it's on my profile page), and I'll send it to you. After, please tell me what you think, and if you like it, forward it to others.

In other news, I was at work today and I swear customers wait for good songs to play before telling me to get shoes. I have to listen to the same boring  songs all day, and miss the ones I actually like because I have to go out the back... I recall hearing three songs twice today. I have to go all day tomorrow too so I'm going to go insane..

Merry Easter everyone.
