A few hands later, where nothing happened, I got a jack and ten, don't know what called but ended up splitting pot with an Ace high run, moved to another table giving me $1,485.
That's when it all started to go wrong, and I eventually got out I can't remember exactly how (good selective memory at work here). Anyway, then by mistake I pressed a button that said I would like to rebuy in and I found myself with $2,000 (that I paid 2 cents for) and under a lot of pressure because I'd never even managed to get this much before. But before long I went all in with a pocket pair of tens, and lost out at the last minute to a pair of kings.
I felt like a bit of a fool after all that so I thought I should at least play one more Ten Cent Giveaway and try and come second, to win back the 4 cents I lost when I did that stupid rebuy.
I managed that, it was a long and protracted process. There was a very angry Russian man just to my right, with long black hair, that slammed his fist on the table at every given opportunity. I wasn't sure if it was because my bare legs under the table were just out of reach, or if he was really taking the free game to win a maximum of 6 cents very seriously.
In the end, a French man won and I came second, and I think that'll be it for tonight. I'm all pokered out.
Oh and I'd like to add that I am very sad that I'm not watching Lady GaGa sing Poker Face live in London tonight. Completely irrelevant, but her song title has the word poker in it.
