    Love the discussion on these nits.

    However since im not a good reader - and theres 63 pages which is out of my reading range - can tommy tell me more about this cat. he looks cute, and i like cats. and im tilted so cats might de-tilt me. 

    :)

    Anyway, all this talk of nits has made me a little thirsty for some ego poker hands.  Me and young Smitty (Great Britain's youtube answer to LonelyGirl13) got into a 'mine is bigger than yours' thing yesterday on the Mastercash tables.  He showed me one, I showed him one back.  Might be great poker, might be rank awful, not for me to judge.

    Hand 1, I bottled my read tbh.  Not nice to say but I did, the whole plan was to let him barrel off and I blinked.  Hand 2, trying to represent strength, I think the board hits my 'peeled and binked a set' range well plus it's tough for him to have too much IMO.

    Then again, I could be completely wrong.

    Here you go Don, more Cat pics:








    I have no idea if he 'has cheeseburgerz.'

    He turned up after we moved into the new place, that was about nine months ago.  Slowly he's been turning up more.  I think today he's been either sleeping on the sofa or stalking in the garden all day.  I'm quite concerned he is owned by someone and they are waiting by their garden door with cat food in hand.  The problem is he doesn't have a collar on, never has.  I'm considering taking him to the vets to see if he's chipped, the problem is I don't want to become responsible for the blighter, nor if the vet tells me I should chip him do I want to pay for it.  Not sure what to do TBH.

    Just to help tommy i googled "a cat keeps comming to my house" link one scrolled down through some garbage and found this. Maybe a good suggestion - saves the vets

    "if you dont want to keep it, dont let it in...and whatever you do, dont feed it. it will go away soon enough... the more you feed it the more it'll just keep coming back. 
    on the other hand, if you want to keep it...take some advice from a cats sanctuary or the RSPCA regarding inoculations etc...they'll also advise you on whether it probably has an owner or not
    (cats just make a home wherever they're being fed)"


    However you seem happy with this cat, but im sure you'll decide whats best for you.

    Just claim someone else's cat Wayne.  That's what I have done.  Apparently.

    Blooming thing's sat on a heated blanket right now purring at me.  Think it's time to put him outside.

    Emma reckons you should print them photos with a kind of 'is this your cat?' style thing and stick 'em up in the area or post some around the street.

    EDIT: Probably not the one with you in PJs ;)

    I don't really want to do that, mainly because ever since 101 Dalmatians I'd be worried some Victorian style villian would just use this as an opportunity to get a free cat.  Plus if someone had lost a cat they'd be much more likely to put up signs themselves.  I've looked a lot around the area, haven't seen one yet.

    BTW, those are not my PJs, that is a tracksuit bottom and Kansas City Chiefs limited edition jumper.  Why is it limited edition?  Because no one else in the UK buys the stuff for them, that's an import.

    Go Chiefs!

    hand 1 is awful awful 3bet if you're going to be folding post to just 2 barrels on this texture with stacks as they are. 

    hand 2 fold pre fold pre once you call pre i'd rather call flop raise turn than anything else.

    Completely agree with you on hand 1.

    Hand 2 the HU dynamic had gone to a point where I was not folding anything connected or suited pre.  Yes I know the small connectors are a lot worse than the middle, higher ones and yes fold pre optimal.  The plan was play streets.

    good plan, except that if you plan to always do it with 34o you're just burning money.......

    And we're back. So I get a call the other day from my Dad.  He's coming to the SPT this weekend and decided to check out Aspers while my mother did some shopping around Westfield. Dad:  'So I went in Aspers.  It's a bit grotty isn't it.' Me:  'Really?  I thought it looked quite swish.' Dad:  'Yeah, but the people in there were shabby.  People wearing T-Shirts...' When you say the word casino, below is how my father sees it, with a Speak-Easy soundtrack on loop.

    Hahaha

    Diary, my Dad.  My Dad, diary.

    Introductions done, firstly congratulations on turning on the computer.  Our standard £20 last longer sounds good to me.  Don't fold too much waiting for me to bust.

    Sigh, true dat.  All you need is to pay Rich Orford to film me for one hand and I'll spew off half my stack a la Luton.  I play so bad....
