Mmmm beer
I had a crappy night last night. It started when we knew we had to get tires for the car. One had a slow leak, and another was low on treads. I dropped the wife and daughter off at the mall while my son and I waited in line at sears to get tires because my wife had a $200 gift card for there.
It took them, no lies, 41 minutes to get to me in line. It was ridiculous. In that time, my wife got my daughters ears pierced, picked out some earrings, and was getting pretty bored, as was my son who was stuck in line with me. We finally drop off the car and walk to the mall to eat dinner while waiting for them to do the tires. We decide on BJ's Brewery, and they have a 15 minute wait so we head in to Atomic Comic, but nothing there really grabs me per se.
When we finally sit, I get to order a beer. Its the first beer I've had in a long time. The first real beer. I mean, you see me order a Heiniken or three every week at Pub Poker, but even that's not real beer. The BJ's Belgian was pure heaven, and it reminded me why I was an alcoholic, and sure enough, I forced myself to stop before that beer was even done, or I'd just be tempted to order another, and another and another.
When everyone was done, I was getting ready to head back to Sears to pick up the car when my wife reveals that she forgot the Sears gift card. Doh! That was annoying.
I pay in cash ($200!), we get home, and the wife passes out. I sit down to play some poker and find a pretty juicy table where a maniac appears drunk and is just firing off with anything. In addition I sit down to watch the Dan N vs Dreamclown HU match. Honestly, I am not a good enough HU player to say who I thought was better but it was fun to watch.
Meanwhile, the maniac continues to bet and call into my premium hands and rivers me out of two HUGE pots, and I lose a couple of small one's as well for an overall craptastic night. In general this has been a pretty bad poker week for me, but I am not sure its my play versus just a bad run, so I'm trying to stay positive...
See you all tonight for pub poker....
