Chippin’ around
Kick my brains ’round the floor
These are the days
It never rains but it pours

I’ve always been told that another element to becoming an expert poker player is the ability to create your own luck. Guys like Ivey and Negreanu seem to get the dealers to pluck cards from the bottom of the deck…and others are constantly bemoaning that they’re always the victim in the ever-present runner runner one-out bad beat story. I’m certainly not claiming true enlightenment here, but I think I’ve got a much better understanding of how each extreme comes to fruition. In a word…pressure.
There was a chart at the top of the front page of the Chronicle today…Seven days without recorded rainfall in the area since June 1st. There was a definite link between the sky and my fortunes. Apparently tomorrow is supposed to improve, just as my luck has started to straighten itself out. And I could appreciate the glint of silver ushering away the clouds.
