N8 and fake tells

I love the feeling when your bus (N8) arrives exactly when you get yourself to the stop! Usually you see it accelerating furiously away straight under your eyes, but this time I was able to taste positive side of variance! Saved at least 15 mins of my expensive time, lovely!

Poker was fine, made profit of £60 from 6th place, covers exactly my lost buy-ins from last two tournaments. Funniest thing today was when one player came to talk to me during tournament break and revealed my "very bad tell". We played quite big pot together before break and I tried to steal the pot on river after showing a fake tell. Usually shaky hands mean strong hand, so I faked it and looks like my opponent also noticed my tell. This time it just didn't work like I hoped, since my opponent thought it was because of weakness and he pushed all in... Anyway I'm very surprised that he came to tell me that! I would never share such a valuable information, and especially not during the tournament when we both were still playing and waiting for final table!

Just bought new 20" suitcase from Sportdirect today with £11. It's perfect since it's cabin approved by most of the airlines, so I'll have some extra space for all of my stuff!
