Tea and sympathy

Had a couple of plants, similar to Yucca (also part of the asparagus family) did the exact same thing this year. So frustrating after years of lovely foliage.

Backs tho, tweaked mine last Tuesday. Get this kind of spasm about every 2 years on average and seems to happen irrespective of whether im exerting myself or doing something quite innocuous. Agonising but normally goes within a few days to a couple of weeks. Today is the first day I'm nearly right again but I know it's only a matter of time - do feel sorry for my wife when this happens as I go from completely stoic when she's not around to moaning like a baby when she is. Anyway, massive sympathy from me on this - totally know the feeling and glad your feeling better

Very pleased to read that.

It's very odd how we behave even in our autumn days when we are notionally wiser etc.

Considering the career you've had and the fact that most people like you, it's amazing something holds you back from initiating something like this - anyway, great that this happy on course collision happened.

Obviously very dependent on whether you enjoy the Smiths but massively enjoyed him and the Blossoms doing a full Smiths set. The songs do the heavy lifting but his enthusiasm and obvious enjoyment in performing made it a great watch and listen, a bit corny, sure..but loved it

Can't remember last time I watched Tennis but it's a long time. Some elements reminded me of why i started to find it unwatchable, grunting, fist pumping, constantly looking up towards your team. Still, was a pretty great game to watch.

Obvs rooting for the GOAT but was good to see Alcaraz for the first time in the flesh. Pretty amazing player. Gonna win it all that boy

I honestly believe I'm the only person in the UK with a balanced and thoughtful outlook

As true today as it was in 2017.

Bluffed off over 400k stack with a pair of two’s. Same old Danny

Haha, sounds about right

These updates are always so good, thank you

I've seen this story before, quit now or you'll end up like Chompy

I had a holiday in a cottage right across from the bay in Croyde. Back garden of the cottage adjoined the backgarden of the pub which was perfect as a young father of 2. Loved it

Yeh he was allin 7.5k .  Sorry my tired write up could have been clearer !
I watch his vlogs all time for wsop, they are so bad it’s just too good to miss for entertainment purposes.
Basically just him moaning about run bad the whole time with him crashing his scooter into a person or a door almost every other vlog. 
He literally just spent hours just moaning to Robert Williamson 3rd ( I think ) who was sat next to him. 

So todays draw includes a certain Victor Blom sat next to me.   Also Eoghan O’Dea who funny enough i had never spoken to until I had a friendly conversation for 5 minutes 3 way with Rob Sherwood the first night. 

Literally half left so aren’t really deep in the mtt at all.  But in with a shot and really looking for forward to it.  Managed 5.5 hours sleep but might try for some more when I get back after my eggs Benedict and fresh fruit .  Should be 3-5mins to room today for breaks as over in horseshoe .

Nice to hear how people are doing, good luck

That's very good indeed, love seeing old bands I loved in my youth providing they are somewhat in shape still.

Went to my first gig at the RAH in April, was worried about sitting at a gig for the first time in my life but gotta admit at my age now, loved the comfort and the venue.

I've never watched a "Box Set" or any of that crap in my life. After I got my posh new Telly, with NetFlix & all that stuff, I somehow allowed Tom to talk me into watching the Sopranos. Oh my, how good was that? And I was only 25 years late. So that was 6 Series & 86 episodes.

GOAT of all shows, for me 

One of  a few I have on loop in my room. I put it on when I go to bed and pause when I wake up.

Must have gone through it ~100x over the last 10 years since we moved home last time.

You need to watch the below now, too.

The Wire
Ozark
The Newsroom
Deadwood
Homeland
Friday Night Lights
The West Wing

Enjoy!

Enjoyed most of those except West Wing - just can't really get into things that have an in your face complete story arc in a single episode.

For Tony, if you have the patience for some of the brilii but slow burning things you mentioned deffo watch the first 2 on Marky's list in that order Id' suggest

Very impressive, I love 8 game, I regularly play a $1 tourn on PS, it's brill, sometimes 30 or 40 bucks up top for 5 hours effort.

Anyway, was very interested in watching the replay you mention , could see the event listed on the client and the final result but couldn't see the replay in the 'replays' section. Am I doing something wrong please ?

I couldn't see it at first, but when you click events (which was next one to the right of SCOOP) I could see replays on another tab below it.  Am not at home so can't check.  This was the client on my laptop. 

Think if you just go through the SCOOP tab the there are no replays (which confused me too).  There were replays going back to last year which also confused me, as event 32 wasn't 8 game when I clicked on it!  Even simpletons can win SCOOPs it seems.  Get in the $22 8 game on Saturday. 

Found it, pretty interesting, need to go back as I fell asleep during some of the stud round where I find myself really unsure of the best moves a lot of the time and I may go and look for other replays of stud as I didn't know these replays were there.  You ran pretty pure in the Limit Holdem though izzit with a spectacular river in the last hand to seal the deal- anyway, nice one

I wouldn't watch my stud play to learn anything.  There was a couple of hands where looking back I thought what was I doing there?

I don't think I have ever watched my own play back with everyone face up and you can see where you went wrong/got lucky.  At the time I realised I was running good with my cards, but didn't realise how bad my opponents cards were in limit hold'em.

There are some other bits of run good that you don't realise at the time such as raising with in NL hold'em and getting 3 bet and then deciding not to shove when I think I was chip leader (he had 10s).  There were 2 hands in 2-7 triple draw where I started out worst which could have crippled me.

In limit hold em where I had AT 3 bet and bet twice on a KQ8 board after 3 bet pre which I thought might be wrong at the time (he had a worse ace).  Interesting to see others errors too, one lost their mind with 98s(?) in the SB near the end when I had kings which made the finish much easier.  He was unlucky I had kings, but not at all sure why he called twice to cripple himself.

Definitely a different slant when you can see all the cards face up. In my limited experience, even though it was short handed, was a bit surprised at some of the 2-7 hands that were played quite strong but ran out well for you. Great experience for you I'm sure and a very nice win. GL in Vegas
