Plodding on

Lamma Jim looks out a starting hand chart and finishes up his session $12 up. Could this be the turn around? As a man that likes his metal I'm sure he is keen to get back in black. I find myself last night on a pretty straightforward table and am close to a buy in up at 50NL before a software glitch closes the table. I can only find a seat at 50NL against a guy with $10. I flop two pair on the first hand and felt him but I give back $5 and we are evenly matched at $15. I raise, get min raised and push with pocket eights and he calls with Kings which hold reducing my win for the night to $36.

I then let Mrs P loose on Ladbrokes blackjack to win a $25 bonus. Half-way through the requirements she is running $9 down so not likely to help the roll much at all but good for a giggle.

With my floor needing to be ripped up it may be prudent to relocate the family for a week after Chinese New Year. This may free up a little more poker time and may enable me to get back on track for the first Quarter.
