Today was Australia Day and I took the day off from poker and had a very good day. We went to the beach, it was a 34 degree day and there was a nice breeze down there.

It is down to a seven handed table, but i really don’t think that this guy is taking that into account. Poker Stars, $1/$2 NL Hold’em [...]
