I caved and finally ordered myself a PSP.
My friend Tomas (who is such an enabler) decided to get one today and as usual I got all excited and had to order one too :)
Shopping list turned out:
1 x 1000k Value Pack+Ridge Racers (PSP)
1 x PSP Battery Pack (PSP)
1 x Screen Guard (PSP)
1 x USB+Recharge 2 in 1 Cable (PSP)
1 x FIFA Soccer (PSP)
1 x Lumines (PSP)
1 x Wipeout Pure (PSP)
I also purchased a new camera lens for Anna which she had, not so subtly, been hinting about for a while now.

Loose talkers, tight players
That seemed to fit my table at the tournament. Everyone was mouthing off pre-game on how they would go all in all the time; but when push came to shove they didn't.
As usual I got nothing until 10 minutes before the rebuy when I doubled up twice to land at 5000 chips. Just after the rebuy period I had JJ and went up against AA (I put him on AK which in hind sight was a bad read). Very luckily I flopped a jack and was suddenly up to 9000 in chips.
I wasted some of it on a bad raise, followed by a bad bet and a bad call. I had 99 and a player that vigorously defended his blinds called me. FLop came AK and I played the hand like I had an ace. Which unfortunately he had. He went all in and I only had to call 1000 chips. Which was so stupid since I knew I was beat.
Oh well. Two hands after I had 96s under the gun and limped in. The same guy raised 1000 preflop and everyone folded to me. I decided to go all in. Since I had been playing a solid game up to those nines I figured he would fold to my "posing as AA/KK". The rest of the table was sure I had just that and apparently so did he because he folded.
The rest of the game consisted of me getting blinded down until I got 33 in a late position. I did the old string bet bluff with all my chips and got called by the big blind. He had TT and the tournament was over, I finished 14th.

Worst logos part II

It's like a rorschach test and logo in one.
Apparently it's for a Brazilian "Institute for Eastern Studies".
