Shameless money-grabber

The target-o-meter shows 4 hours and (both less and more importantly) $105.

Chelsea did win, 4-2 with Bayern’s second goal coming from a shocking penalty decision in the last minute. So my money was pretty safe throughout the second half, and in a very rare occurrence I won more sports betting than pokering yesterday.

Some jumbled thoughts:

1. Amy Calistri, just about the only thing worth reading on the awful pokerpages.com, hints that Barry Shulman is trying to make a big cut from the proposed Andy Beal/Corporation game, just for printing the ‘open letters’ between the two parties. Par for the course for Shulman. A classless letter to potential advertisers in Cardplayer Europe plus the debut of Mrs Shulman as lead feature writer don’t reflect brilliantly, in my opinion, on a magazine whose contents I find increasingly uninteresting.

2. People arriving early for appointments are, in my opinion, equally as bad as those arriving late. If I am expecting and preparing for your visit to my offices at 1pm, why should I suddenly have to meet you half an hour early?

3. I’m having a big argument with my best mate, which is getting me down.

4. I should get home tonight to find a new DVD has arrived in the mail. Kind of a specialist thing. I’m looking forward to it.

And that is all today from the desk of 89TJ.
