That ass kicking thing will start tomorrow...

... because it sure didn't happen today.
I spent my afternoon off lounging around; there is something deliciously decadent about being in nothing other than glasses and a silk robe, propped up in bed playing poker while everyone else works.
Played the 24k - out middle of the pack, no cards worth working. Played three tokens and made it for two of them. ITM'ed a $6+.50 turbo SnG.
Sleep deprivation caught up with me , so the cat and I napped for a bit. Thankfully the phone woke me up in time to play a HORSE SnG with Gcox and Surflexus where it was 1-2-3 baybee! I was #3 of course.
Have I mentioned how the whole high-low concept in stud and omaha continue to elude me?
On to the Skillz game. Eighty-six runners - good grief. I've played Stud about 6-8 times before, so had no delusions about going deep. It was only thanks to the last-minute tips from Riggstad, Joanne and Astin that I made it to 44th when I was busted by a poorly timed bluff that I fell too deeply into. I went into the game with 3 stages of goals - last past the first break (check), outlast two people (check), and then make the points (denied).
Competitive Grrl is grumbling in my ear about not making it further. If I'd been focussed like Sunday night, and gotten rid of the distractions of BDR, Hotmail and multiple chat windows, I'd have done better.
Noted for next time.

Tomorrow, I am heading the club with Astin to play live poker, and I'm hoping that I will do well enough that I won't be home in time for the Mookie. And while I want to make it and love playing with y'all, I'm hoping I don't see you as I can use the cash for some March break fun.

Speaking of Mookie...all my congratulations and best wishes on your new arrival tomorrow :-)
