Poker Rocks!
Ya know, its almost like found money on some days! I played in 4 one table tournaments today-sucked in one, but placed 3rd and two 1st places! 3rd in this case meant I made my money back for entry fees plus a little. It starting to feel like I'm back in my groove. I stopped playing for a while due to chemo dragging me down but I'm having some decent luck right now. I played a hand or two that I should have laid down but overall my biggest problem (if you can cal it that) is playing a little too tight. (meaning I'm folding a lot before the flop). I had a couple of times tonight when I saw what would have been trips come up had I stayed in but for the love of the goddess I had rags like 3h 5s!I'm not laying that unless I can check into it from the big blind! Well....maybe if I've been playing really tight just to screw with my table image a bit...but I wouldn't bet heavy on it!
in other news, I'm having lunch with an ex tomorrow. It seems she finally found some pictures and stuff of mine from when I was at CCP and I'm getting it back tomorrow. We're having lunch at John Harvards in Wayne so I'm looking forward to the French Onion Soup. Its going to a be a bit weird seeing her since I haven't in about two years-perhaps more and now I'm bald and she's living with some guy about 10 years older than her...basically my age. I can deal with that part, its her life but I'm insecure about being so bald and having to go back to work soon...I guess that's my biggest concern, I just want to have hair again and anything that reminds me that I don't weirds me out. I also feel a little weird about my scars and the missing neck muscle but I'm getting better about forgetting about it. The scar does hurt and feel stiff so I can' have clothes touching it too much which means it shows more than I would like. I'm going to look into the silicone products that are supposed to help scars heal better and faster than regular and vitamin E based lotions. MEH! for now, its off to bed to dream of poker winnings and a WSOP bracelet someday...........
