This week’s action……

Only 20 shopping days left, Deadly has work to do…..

Hammerheed also takes a head stagger, must go shopping, and a trip to the Victoria centre ensues……

Threats of an appearance from Wallace are quickly dismissed as hearsay……

With that 5 regular rogues congregate at the cloth, for experimentation in the lab…….

One notable anomaly of the evening is Swiller minus a bottle of red…….clearly not living up to his name he shrugs this off by the fact he is steering this evening, but the other club members know better, wooden spoon avoidance being the primary agenda, tactfully testing his game play with a sober head……

Irwinator is quick off the blocks, all guns blazing, raising here there and everywhere, and accumulating some clays, although this gung ho approach soon has him on the short stack….

Triple all – in action, with the gun slinger on the short stack for his tournament life, the Professor quickly calling my over the top re-raise there can only be one outcome, the best hand Vs the second best hand, and as 80% of the time they will, Aces stand tall, the Prof triples up and its Irwinator who claims the lumber……

The next eventful hand was stranger than fiction, the stuff of dreams, or indeed nightmares. Cally shoves with a short stack on the flop and Swiller calls, Cally shows Ace high, but Swiller turns 2 pair, It’s a 50-1 shot, but it’s a shot and what a shot, runner runner hits Cally, 2 pair, Aces up……Disgruntled would be an understatement……

The luck box seems to have used up all his luck performing his previous miracle, and for his next trick he disappears from the game and conjures some bubbles……

Heads up sees Swiller in the peculiar position of positive equity, but he faces a formidable opponent, none other than the Professor of negative equity whose performance this season has been adverse to his namesake. It’s the Professors’ house, and it’s full, points and swag remain in the lab……

I’m JC…..How about some wine on tap…..
