Moving Day

The bad side about a new place is that there's no internet. So I was onto the broadband company today and hopefully it won't be too long. My mates were saying to ring electric and gas to change over too, I wasn't too concerned until I was informed that I couldn't pot without electricity - so I better get onto them tomorrow!

So I discovered today that without the internet, the life of an online poker player is quite empty. I ventured out in search of an internet cafe and the possibility of putting in a few hours, if it was a quiet set up. I saw a sign pretty much straight away once I reached the main road but as it turned out, it wasn't quite the ideal potting conditions.

It was in the back of a shop, a dingy little room with about six computers, where there was probably only room for two. There was already a couple of girls in there, so I grabbed the computer nearest to the door - knowing that I wasn't going to play but I might as well check the net etc.

After a few minutes, the madness started to unfold. One of them pipes up with, "I wanna suck your DICK... GOD I'm so hot for you right now." I didn't have a Scooby's what was going on, was she talking to me or WTF. So I had a cheeky peek over the shoulder and she was talking on one of those video cam things. God, she was a real dirty looking bird with a thong half way up her back.

Then the two of them start arguing as one of them wanted "a fuckin' big Mac burger and I'm not waitin' for ya". So I'm closing down the tabs frantically while your one blows me the filthiest kiss I've ever seen. As I'm leaving I hear them talking about putting in another hour before their burgers - so I guess I wasn't the only one going to the internet cafe to put in a couple hours work.

Suppose I should talk a little about the poker! In my last blog I was saying how good I was running and that's usually when you're reminded what a real bollix of a game this can be. Well that's pretty much what happened.

I had a pretty gruesome few days on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, with Thursday being my worst ever day; overall topping up to a nice 16k downswing. It was the usual shenanigans really with a few coolers, few doggins and generally just not scooping any pots. I shan't complain too much, as October was considerably my best month ever, and I'm very pleased with how it's going over all.

So moving house sort of came at a good time to be fair, and I'll take this week handy enough. Then next week I'll get back into it, big time!
