Cheap fuel nutters
stiffpinkie, Aug 14 2007
i'm not sure how it is everywhere else, but in sydney, petrol is seen as such a grudge buy.
today driving to work, 2 petrol stations clearly visible to oncoming drivers. One is 3 cents a litre cheaper than the other.
result, the cheaper one is ridiculously stacked with cars, whilst the other one is empty. So 3 cents a litre, 50 L car, $1.50 saving. For this $1.50 people will happily queue an extra 10-15mins.
People don't seem to value their time, or underestimate the worth of their time. it makes me think teh general population is short sighted, and find it hard to see longer effects of their invesments. Saving $1.50, losing 15 mins, is only profitable if you're earning like 6 bucks an hour.
Oh and before i forget, this is a poker blog. So for my own reference, i'm running with a sad AF of 2. aiming to fix this in the next month.
Trance and urgency

So i felt as if my concentration had been waning lately so i decided i'd experiment this morning.
Terrible, terrible, terrible failed experiment.
My body works like clockwork so intelligent me decided, hey lets put myself on edge. Lets hold it all in in the morning, put on some trance music, and load up a few more tables than normal.
3 buyins later, i realised i'd be making really hasty stupid calls.
So boys and girls, relieve yourself, sit down comfortably and play non rushed poker
