[+39*F...."feels like" +33*.....cloudy....winds from the northeast @ 8 mph]
Basically a cool, damp day with heavy cloud cover....a good excuse to play some Poker....not that I needed one....but it's my story and I'm sticking to it....took a few tries to get on a 1000/500 blind table with my max-buy-in of 125'K....what I found was a table of four with one of the players having a stack of chips in front of him that was approaching 1 million....thought I'd might be in for a wild ride but was wrong....I grossly underestimated the situation....for most of the trip I felt like I was in one of those amusement park rides where they strap you in and most of the ride your upside-down or sideways....the afore mentioned player was certainly feeling his "oats"....and periodically was throwing out huge pre-flop bets....and this lasted for an about 30 minutes....until he took his then 1 million+ chips and left....during his stay....twice lost large pots, once when my high two pair got "tripped" on the river and the other when the turn and the river conspired to "trip up" another nice two pair....so I was down a bundle at that point....then it "settled down" to a table of 4 or 5.....some pre-flop nonsense but only up to maybe 5'K....and managed to win a few blind/small/and even a decent pot or two....finally got my "nose above water" looked at the clock....60 minutes played....time to flee....ergo....60 minutes played....97 hands played.....yes 97 hands played....a hand every 37.1 seconds.....13 winners....1 every 7.5 hands....but because all of those winners save one were in the last 30 minutes played did get my share and maybe a bit more....escaped with an extra 1,700$....and my sanity {such as it is].....had a roulette spin waiting hit for 63'K....oh well....and took the first drop of the day just before writing this post....42'K w/ad....for tactical pants....

1] Mahjong FRVR: puzzles were played and solved on all three levels of difficulty....one puzzle on each level....puzzle of the day was solved on the normal level....
2] Fall Spades: three games played today....[1]....12 hands played...."we" 563 pts. + 13 bags [-100 pts.] + set twice + 2 nil bids made....vs...."they" 398 pts. + 8 bags + set three times + 1 nil bid made....[2]....9 hands played.... game featured a 15 bid hand...."they" set...."we" 549 pts. + 9 bags + set once...."they" -64 pts. + 6 bags + set five times....[3]....9 hands played...."we" 566 pts. + 6 bags + set once + 1 nil bid made....vs...."they" 288 pts. + 8 bags + set twice
[[note:1] I keep a "box score" of all games played in a small notebook....I have one page/day for Fall Spades....when the page is full....play is over for the day....today 3 games did the trick....]
[[note:2] I hate the background music on Mahjong FRVR....and always turn it off....but a "hint".....when you play Mahjong FRVR....turn the hint off [select "menu" and turn off hint....it will always give you the obvious move....not necessarily the right or best move....]
