   Just a normal day here....+10*F....w/a wind-chill of -3*F.....not snowing right now but is predicted for later in the day....and off to play some Poker....
   For the most part the Poker table I took a "chair" at was a decent table....some pre-flop betting but not every hand....and generally just small raises....an all-in here and there but usually post-river.....first hand....a garbage hand....won a blind pot....on a "high card"....had a Queen....next hand....pocket cards were a pair of Ladies....garbage flop....but one play makes a reasonable raise....so smooth call....turn....board still nothing....no board pair....no 3 to a straight or flush....a larger bet....smooth call....river....and my Ladies duet became a trio....other player goes all-in....(he started the hand with around a 40K stack....(1000/500 blind table, and brought my usual max buy-in of 125'K)....no straight or flush possible....since the board Queen was high card....any trips he might have made were lower than my Queens....quick call....and a nice pot....there was only one problem....after the first 2 hands....I spent the rest of the 16 minutes I played....looking for a hand....finding no hand....but was up....wanted to stay....there had been 3 large stacks at the table....one left....and the other (I was the third) started pre-flop pot pushing and all-ins after every river....a table captain  (aka: bully) had arrived....after 3 or 4 hands the 16+ mission banner appeared....and I disappeared....of to play some Blackjack 21 with 31,800$ I hadn't brought with me....and the 16+ & 10K+ missions in tow....(no slots)
   Took a "chair" to play some Blackjack 21 at a table of 3....well a table of 4 if you count the ghost ( never bets, never leaves, caught in the matrix apparently)....the dealer was hot and I was not....every good hand a had....save one....was either beat by a better hand (usually a dealer blackjack or 3 card 21)....but most  hands were my usual diet of shmattah....ergo....10 minutes played....13 hands played....1 blackjack....2 pushes....1 dealer bust....2 winners....down 55$....
