Oh farts and butts...
Not even 6 months after I got it, I completely scratch up my ipod. I am so pissed off. I was on my way to Alice and Monica's house for a game of poker. I had a show that night, so I left the theater as soon as my piece was over so I could make it to poker in time. Well, the trip took more than an hour, most especially because of the stupid trains not running and buses being full and a bunch of other crap. I was really pissed off when I got off the A train (which stopped at 145th St, I needed to go to 175th) to transfer to the C. I was running up the stairs, and the cord of my headset caught something, pulled the ipod out of my pocket. It fell on the concrete stairs JUST as my foot landed on top of it AS I was running up the stairs. This made a ugly sounding crunch sound, and when I picked up my ipod I wanted to cry. I love my electronics and I hate seeing them get hurt. This pains me.

On the plus side, I made $90 at poker. I played fairly solidly, and, as always, got really lucky. Two huge hands got me most of my cash... Including three people going all in with mostly crap and some draws, while I had a pair of Kings. My kings held up through the turn and the river to win a pot about of about $60. Later on in the game, I had pocket Aces, which I played somewhat slow (bet $1 before flop.) The flop came out A, K, blank. Turn came K, River came blank. I had a house, Aces full of Kings. The best full house possible. The only way anyone could beat me was if they had pocket Kings, but I slow played my Aces after the flop and no one pushed with the kings until the turn, so I figured pocket kings were highly improbably. Tamir went all in with a set of kings... he had no idea I had aces, since I was slow playing them. I won it all.
