Is that a bad beat?? Im really wondering. Ive had a bad run the past week or so, losing about $100, thats alot in my book. Whenever I have a bad run I try to figure out whats going on. Its usually a mixture of bad play brought on by odds not working out like they should. Once I identify that, I try to rely on my trusty but true winning strategy, go to a .10/.25 table w $10 and grind it out, quit effing around and play good poker. This tends to get me back on track. Sure enough this weekend I had my first winning sessions all week. Im up about $30-$40 and ready to get my money back.

Speaking of getting my money back, this happened to me yesterday:

OK, so ANOTHER bad beat AND my first losing session in 48 hours and this dickhead gets up and leaves!!! I reload, he leaves. So, Id officially had enough and I figure that "Find Player" feature has to be good for something....Of course as I sat patiently waiting for my opportunity to get my money back, someone else got most of his stack, I mean this guy is a total idiot...seriously

Ive been wanting to start playing the tier sngs on FTP. Zooks has been doing this alot and I wanna be like Zooks. Of course ive played the tier ones for tokens, but I use those in 200k satellites or GTD turneys. Ive never just moved up the next tier, and that is going to be my new venture!!

Oh, and Anna is sick again today!! She started running a fever on Sunday. This poor kid is always sick, I feel so bad for her. About a year ago we were over at my moms house making Christmas Wreaths with the kids in her basement. Anna was only bout a year and a half and wasnt much interested in the craft so she was kinda running around getting into things, all the boxes of stuff in my moms basement n such. All of a sudden we hear her say "MMMMMmmm" and then immediately start to cough and make choking noises. I turn around and she has a Vase filled with some yellow liquid, pouring it into smaller little glasses and drinking it. She had found a bottle of Wood Laquer Remover and decided to have a tea party with it!! She started to not be able to breathe and I rushed her to the ER. She was going limp in my arms, eyes rolling back in her head, it was the scariest moment of my life. She spent a few days in ICU with Hydrocarbon Pneumonia. It hadnt poisoned her, but rather she had asperated it into her lungs. I think this incident has caused her to be more susceptible to colds and coughs ever since, but thats just a moms intuition.
