Weekend Update - 26 July 2004
Not much to report. I’ve hit a downturn in my poker play again. Nothing too bad, just a string of down sessions. Other than the home game last Friday, I think it’s been a week since I’ve had a winning session. Granted, some of the down sessions are only 1 or 2BB, so they aren’t devastating or anything, just kind of a confidence knocker. It’s all rigged anyway, right?
The redeeming part of this weekend was that the casino I was whoring finally decided to stay running for more than 5 hands. I also figured out where the multi-hand tables were and how to play $2 a hand instead of $5. Playing 5 $2 hands of blackjack at a time made the $2500 work rate go by quickly and I more than doubled my money (from $100 to $225). Now, I just need my PIN to show up so I can cash out and I’ll be good to go again. That doubling and the bonus I got on the poker side make losing $40 at poker a non-issue.
Here’s hoping your cards are falling better than mine.

Sounds like your way up with your home game wins! Keep up the good work. I am going to play a home game for the first time next month. I think I will suck at face to face, but we shall see. I am probably a walking tell. At least it is just friends for fun and a little money.
