Went to the doctors last Friday because I had a bad pain in my back just below the shoulder. It was the walk in one in Arrow Park. Pretty good, walked in, was told I should have called for an appointment, (thought it was a walk in ???) took the receptionist"s sarcasm, persuaded her I needed to see a Doc,  waited 10 minutes and saw a doctor - job done.

Well he probed and prodded then sat down and ran though a set of health questions, weighed me and did a lung capacity testy thingy. He then basically gave me his diagnosis (he might have used longer words cos he"s a clever chap)

But it turns out that although my shoulder is a simple muscle tear, I am an Old, Fat, nicotine addicted alcoholic.

No shiite Sherlock.................


Priceless

Gone tight (really I have) and I only play AQ, AK and QQ+ for the first hour (unless unraised in the BB of course) including folding to a raise with lesser hands in the blinds up to 18 left

I will reduce my range in the final 9 if in positions 6-9 (and recently I am reaching that consistently) and continue to be ultra aggressive with premium regardless of tourney position (no fancy trappy play)


fixed that bit as well

Cmon all -- Dawn and myself are crushing the low stakes (she is crushing more than me with a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 2 misc. cashes and a seat - she runs like a goddess)

Made the first break in the stars $80k gtd -- more by luck than judgement with a piddling 2,990 851/1294 blinds at 75/150 when we return

It could be a while...........
