When I was little, growing up in a large Italian family, you hugged and kissed everyone. Aunts, uncles, even people you didn't know well, as a show of respect. That's the way it was in my family. Today everyone seems to hug but these days it's awkward for me. At my weekly game it's how I greet and send off the fishies. But like I said, it's awkward. There's Noodles....hug him and you might get humped. But dammit, he won't allow me to not hug him. I think it's the highlight of his week and I hate to disappoint. Then there's Youth, the guy that usually tags along behind him. He's a young, good looking thing, but I don't know him very well, so why should I hug him? I guess it's because I hug the other guys, so it seems weird to leave one out. Then there's The Mayor. He turns a bright shade of crimson just talking to me, so hugging is waaay awkward. But not hugging is too! And do I really need to hug guys ...

These BBT5 fields are challenging. You've made some very good runs already. If you read heffmike's latest post about BBT stats you'll find that most of the poeple who ruled last year or had done well in several BBTs are not cutting it this year.
Still two more chances -- good luck.
Okay I'll talk about it! :)
I was down to about 900 in chips cuz I made a big bluff that got called. So I played for about an hour after that and got it up to about 2,200.
Then I get A-K suited. Dionysus raises 3 times the blind and I shove all in. He calls w/ 9-9.
A-rag-rag on the flop. 9 on the turn. and I'm out.
At the same exact time this was happening I was talking on the phone with a colleague who called to say she was quitting tomorrow. A dear, kind, wonderful woman who I care for very much. Ugh.
So I wonder if I had just called Dionysus' raise and shoved after the flop, who he have folded...who knows....2 more chances is right!
Thanks Wolfie!
