A day in the life

EYEBALL SANDING MACHINE

The fridge full of beer can only mean one thing. Home game tonight.

It's been a pretty shitty day, I got a bit of something in my eye on Friday, never thought much of it, then Friday night started getting quite sore. Went down to Western General, no queue, perfect, got seen quickly, got my eye mucked about with with no joy, nurse said I should head up to the main hospital. So then drove up to the Little France hospital . (Driving with an eye patch is actually quite tricky, Judging distance becomes a bit more challenging!)
Spent about 3 hrs waiting in Accident and emergency to see the specialist, guy was ace but, reckons I need to go to eye hospital on Monday because they're the only place that has an eyeball sanding machine. Can't wait!

On a positive note, as I knew I'd be waiting ages to be seen I brough Dan Harrington's poker book to read. In it it revealed some rivetting statistics like, that in a pair v a pair battle, the higher pair is 82% to win, ie the lower pair will only win 18% of the time if it hits trips, flush or whatever.

Therefore it's virtually impossible that I could lose with say pocket queens all in against pocket sixes preflop, say like last week for instance, and then in the next tournament, for instance like last night, that I could go out with an all in pre-flop with Aces against pocket tens.
Hmmm.
