Meh. Poker's been crap. Work's been crapola too. I can't think of any other line of work where the customer's allowed to change their minds about fundamental things at the last minute, and you're expected just to fit it in on time somehow.
If a buiIder's building you a house to the design that you've approved, and just as it's nearing completion you tell him you've changed your mind about the bathroom and want it on a different floor, and oh, while you're at it I'd prefer a double garage instead of the single I first specified, but of course I can't wait any longer to move in, you might expect a pretty strong reaction and a massive increase in cost. Not in the IT world though, oh no.
Anyway, it worked out well for JJ in the tourny I was also supposed to be playing in. Unhindered by my intimidating presence and superior card skills, ho ho ho, he was able to take down 2nd place. It was a bummer to miss it.
Elsewhere, the Gooners slaughtered Derby 5-0 and are now clear at the top of the table, irrespective of tomorrow's ManUre Chavs game for which I'll meet up with a mate, and we'll sink a few beers, play a few games of pool and generally act like we're still 25. I wish.

When I play a patient and relaxed game I win - that simple.
