This is sad stuff re: cat. She sounds great- much better than your average cat who sleeps all day and couldn't care less unless it's food time.

Super tilty cash session today. Managed 11 hrs and lost 160 in the process. The 1/2 game was so good for most of the time, some huge whales and some other just generally weak players. So rare to get a game that good and again I ran terrible all day. Well not terrible, just card dead and had two coolers go against me. The two whales donated about 5k between them, I sure got any of it. Just loads of tilty hands/spots and little things like getting aces on a misdeal, walk with kings, flopping sets and everyone fold when they stack off with one pair in other hands. One tilting ruling- a player exposes a card accidentally preflop, hand is ruled as a misdeal, obviously bs ruling, and I have AK and Shaun king has AJ = stacks in most likely. 

I don't quite know how bad this beat was, but i played some dc towards the end, it was 5/5 and sat with 200 and got it in first orbit in super stud with aces up vs a huge draw with one card to come. He was flushing, straighting and lo-ing and binked a straight to scoop. I guess he had about 15outs to scoop and a few to chop and I had 4 redraw outs. Was pretty annoying though cos at the end of an 11 hour session, when you've been even/losing all day, to get outdrawn for a 500 pot kinda sucks cos if I win then I've won 350 for the day and I can leave satisfied, now it all just seems pointless. Sigh never mind.

Bizarre spot today. Its gone raise from a weak/tight player (mp) Jamie Burland calls next to act (hj) fish calls (co) I 3b K7dd to 55 (btn), raiser folds, Jamie calls, fish shoves for 200. I'm playing 700. What should I do here? Shove and hope Jamie hasn't trapped me? Call and hope Jamie folds?

Anyway thats not why it's bizarre, what happened was I folded, Jamie sigh called they ran the board 83382 or something. Both declare "you must win" sort of thing, fish says "chop it?" Jamie agrees and without showing down their hands they agree to split the pot. Its ruled that they can't do this obv, and Jamie tables JTdd which is good. the floor says if Jamie wants to give him the chips away from the table then he can. And jamie does, he hands over £240 or whatever half was in cash. Very strange, I felt a bit cheated on, and a bit tilted cos I think folding is bad and I would won.

Battling thru the downswing again tomorrow, hope things improve Smiley

Here it comes mate. Get rrrrrready for some anomalous lines on that graph. Here's one: if we both manage to get back into the black and finish the month winning we should do something to celebrate. At this stage we might just be able to afford a Big Mac between us.

Cash games are gay. Dunno how you cope with the swings. I very rarely play them but sat down at gala last night. Needless to say it didn't go well!!
