All about the losing

Then went into some cash games where I played alright but ran bad enough, so ended up losing about $9k for the night. I was playing 10/20 and 25/50 PLO, so it lasted for about two hours, in three pretty standard pots.

I was down the country for a midweek break on Tuesday and Wednesday. Spent last night hammering out a weight loss bet with Donal O 'Connor aka "The Doc". I have been steadily gaining weight for the last while and the last time I got on the scales I was about 91 kg. I came in at a healthy 93 kg in the weigh in for the bet.

The bet is to lose 6.5kg, about 1 stone in 7 weeks. Donal has the same mission. If we both succeed/fail, the bets a push but if one does and the other doesn't - it will cost the loser €2k. Chubs is back in town and it's the The Doc's birthday, so the creeps are riding out to pay homage. Should be a loose enough night, with about fifteen of us going on the piss.

Like the look of two halftime handicaps in the weekend's rugby. Taking Ireland -4 and France -11.
