   Pretty average start time this morning....decided to take a walk....and this and that....and realized I hadn't posted the morning "Tales from the Table" episode ???....
   Took a "chair" as is my custom  of late at a 1000/500 blind table....what a wild table it was....caught the end of an "end of session death match" and thought well maybe it will calm done...couldn't have been more wrong....as many as 7 players....and a few hands of heads up....the number of players at the table seemed to change almost ever hand....some were of the "any two card" deserves a raise variety...a brief visit from a kamikaze....a couple of would be table captains....one hand deserves mention....in the small blind....my pocket cards were basically shmattah....by the time the pre-flop betting got to me half the table was all-in....a very easy fold for me....although I would have had the table covered....so the table is 7 players at that point....and the player with the largest stack had a "house"....the next couple of hands just him and me....and he was now the big stack....and  as the table filled back up....decided he was in charge....and that lasted for a while....ever since the game went mobile the play here has gotten well....frantic....and because the money is meaningless....it has produced some extremely wild results....as much as I enjoy the game....this is not gambling....gambling assumes that you have something to lose....but are willing to take a chance to "win" something better....but here you have nothing to lose but faux money....so I don't gamble....I play the game....and I play to improve my "stats"....didn't win any huge pots....but caught some nice hands, and for a change the flop/turn/river were nice to me....played some good poker....ergo....51 minutes played....63 hands played....left the table with an extra 57,900$ I hadn't "brung" with me....
