Bet Da "Q"!!!!










Props to El Patojo for this great pic entitled "Disclosure". Amazing colour tones, and it really reminds me of something you'd find in a NIN inlay card. Genius.



I've made the switch to a new poker site, Bet Da Q. Not quite sure what da "Q" they refer to actually stands for or means (queen perhaps??), who knows??? (lol) What I like about this site is 1. all transactions are in €uros which makes things easier on my tiny mind...also I've found the place seems to be full of n00bs (a standout victory at the weekend saw 2 hopefuls see my all-in on pocket kings with their 8/4 off and 9-2 suited (W.T.F.??????). Surprisingly, no luck for the hopefuls as I tripled up. The former SNG quest has wrecked my head for the last time. At the weekend I 5x my account balance in 30 mins at the cash tables, so from now on I'm mixing it up between cash tables and low buy-in tournaments. My new aim is to make €100 this month. I'm starting low in the hope that in time I will be able to pay my rent through poker....time will tell.

We ended up in an awesome bar on Friday night. (no name), located near the dubious Hogan's is a welcome relief from the 10-a-penny-cascada-playing shiteholes that infest this city. Shrouded in mystery, this seems to be a popular spot nonetheless. TBH, I haven't a clue how long this bar has been going, I must give props to Woo for discovering it. The interior is like a massive apartment, with different rooms but one bar (never overcrowding at the bar - nice). The vibe off the place is more house party than central city bar. Some of the views are quite awesome too, recalling a certain window... A return will be made to this place, and next time the camera's coming with me.

Caught The Dark Knight at the weekend, did not fail to disappoint at all (minor annoyance at Christian Bale's "Bat-Voice"). Gonna take a risk here and say something that you prolly won't hear anyone else saying at all (j/k), but Heath Ledger stole the show. Oscars and the rest....that performance deserves it all.

Some new pics on Flickr - getting reacquainted with Photoshop.
