No!

Mia's latest and most overused word of the moment. I can see why my dad says 'if I'd have known grandchildren were so much fun, I'd have skipped having children and moved straight to grand-kids!' He just sits on the sofa and laughs at us, with that look on his face that says I've been here before - about 30 years ago.

Mia - time for fruitee
(why do we add -ee on to the end of words when talkin to kids? It's like speaking loudly and slowly to a foreigner.)
No
Alright then, time for bobees (bed)?
No
Repeat as neccessary for the next 15 minutes.
Apparantly, it gets much, much worse when they start with 'why?'

Anway, poker, this is a poker blog. I've not posted for a week or so, and to be honest, I haven't had much to say. Now, anyone who knows me will read that last sentence in disbelief - but as no one I know, per se, reads this, I guess it doesn't matter.
Sometimes you go through that phase of 'same old, same old'. Days on the poker table blend into similar days. The bad beats come thick and fast, then the good days come faster, and then you meet the most stupidest poker player you have ever seen, every day. Blog it? I blogged that last time, what else can I write? So it's easy to get out of the routine, and then it's harder to write again. But if I feel like writing something, I will. If I don't, I won't and that's no problem.

Left Tony G poker last week 40$ worse off, but very lucky it was not much, much worse. I must say, I've been at some poker sites and seen such unbelieve hands on such a regular basis, that I have questioned whether this is another con to drain people's money (similar to Million Minds, but in a dfferent way), or I've just seen an extreme run of extreme hands. There is a very small number of players at the site, so maybe other people have also left, or maybethey are just crap at marketing the site. Don't know, but after already seeing for myself that not all poker sites are reputable, I decided not to chance my money with them any further.
Maybe I need to qualify the above paragraph a little more, or maybe you understand what I'm saying, but if you get a gut feeling something isn't right - it's not a bad thing to act on it.
So I've landed at Trident Poker, after www.CasinoMeister.com recommended it. They tried to help me get my MM money back without success (but they tried), and seem to have the best interests of the online gambler at heart. Seems a nice place to play and if they earn a few $ from me, it's a thank you for the efforts they made to help me out.
Things have started very well and after January finished almost 240$ up, I'm hoping I can increase this for February.

Enough from me (glad I didn't have much to write about!!), good luck at the tables.
