Careful what you wish for!

How can you make a $500 win feel like a loss? Start off with a $3400 win, and lose it until you have only a $500 win instead!

As you can see from my last post, I like to keep my chip stacks in a big triangle. You get a perfect triangle at the following number of stacks (a stack being 20 chips): 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, etc. I had my chips up to 27 stacks plus change on Friday night, and I wanted to get to that next perfect triangle and call it a night. Instead Mike Landucci shows up and proceeds to run over the table including myself. It was a combination of me playing bad, getting sucked out on, and going on mini-tilt! Stupid triangles!

I'm not a big movie fan or TV watcher. I think most of the things that come out of mainstream Hollywood is garbage. I am not a pop culture kind of guy, haven't been for the past 5 years or so. The TV that I watch is generally sports, documentaries, Discovery Channel, and Food Network TV. That being said, I did watch a good movie last night based on a friend's recommendation. August Rush , was a very enjoyable movie, despite the obvious made for the movie "moments". It struck somewhat of a personal chord with me as well, having quite a bit of empathy with the main character, and understanding his intense desire to be reunited with his parents.
