He is currently undergoing a rigorous rehabilitation process that aims to eradicate all adverse emotional attachments to the game and promote a positive mental attitude.  In a further testament to Linford Christie, we will also be pumping him full of drugs.

teamonkey, curently walking past me far too frequently in shorts, hawaiian shirt and knobbly knees

Trying to find some big hands, but failing.

Am succeeding in finding hands such as Q-3 in the big blind defending to a raise and two calls

flop Q-4-A

Four way to the turn after action

K

Four way to the river after it checked round

J

Checked round


and the big blind finds Q-3 is good against an UTG raiser and two others!
