A Good Day At The Cyber-Felt

Actually a good day all-round. England beat France in the rugby world cup and we`re in the final next week. Not bad for a team that was written off by most people after the first game. It wasn`t pretty rugby but it did the trick and the win was all that mattered.

I played a gin rummy freeroll today too. First time I`ve tried that and it was good fun, especially as I won. By the time we were down to two players I only needed to win a single hand because my opponent had 149 points and would bust out at 150. It took four or five games for me to finish her off and I was begining to think she was going to steal the win from me.

I also played my eponymous (or should that be eponymouse) tourney at Carbon and bubbled after leading for most of it. Button raised about half my stack and as I had 10-10 I re-raised and was called. With good old 20-20 hindsight I should have flat called then pushed on the flop but hey-ho.
