PokerStars.com

first there financial spread betting. then came poker. man.. where am i going..
first things first. financial offices are REALLY cool. i went to 2 financial spread betting offices.
well.. one was big and one was a little smaller.
i learnt a little bit from the guys who were giving the seminar about support and resistance lines and then it seems to work.
well not all the time la that is.
and i'm booked to another full day seminar on how good their product is.. lol but i'm just eyeing the free lunch and the last session of the day where they teach technical analysis.
and some works on technical indicators. (i'm not a man for news.. so .. i just follow indicators la)
right okies. that one aside.

next thing in my list was pokerstars.com

i was talking to a friend of mine on friday then i don't know how we got into talking about poker.. then one thing led to another.
we had friday pub with the company picking up the bill. :D
i didn't know why i couldn't drink.. well.. i could never drink. but i could hold about 2-3 pints of cider without puking. lol
anyways that night i drank half a pint and i felt weird.. very drunk. but i had KFC in the afternoon.. the oil should have taken away the alcohol.
bah humbugs.. anyways, one of the bad guys in the office, saw me half tipsy.. ( drunk) made me say oooo . down the rest of the pint.
lol well i dislike the way they think they are better.. obviously they can drink better la.. but then it's so what u call it.. undermining a person's worth.
anyways, that guy is a natural prick la..
after that i picked up some lemonade and drank 2 pints of lemonade b4 going home. :D
then home i started the poker thingy.
at first it wasn't fun. playing the cheapest table at 0.02/0.04 fixed.
i signed up with the bonus keyword UKMILLION. this was supposedly a ticket into the sunday millions. and so i thought.
then i spent the rest of the night playing with fake money in the poker after losing like $4 USD. then i played sommore i won back about $2.
i put in about £15 which amounted to about $29.93.
and so the nite went on.. and then i remembered the next morning i had to wake up to get to the spread betting seminar.
i had to wake up at 730 to wash up and get ready for the thing at 10 am.
anyways seminar. done. went to chinatown to buy some snacks. i didn't know the kowloon char siew pau had paper under it.. i ate about 1/4 of it before i realized it was paper. --___--
anywyas i said no wonder it tasted to weird laa.. gee and ppl say it's nice.. hahhahaha

okok then i went home lor.
slept . ate. woke up played a little poker. then went to bed at about 2 because i needed to wake up by 1230 or 230 pm for the poker registration.
i think might as well la.. since already signed up . i should have a free ticket to it mah.
so i did.
game started. 297 ppl. 1-32 gets to play in the sunday millions. 33-38 gets their money back. ( buy in money i think $22) and 39 gets $3.
wow.. it was scary.. even though it was online.. it was intense.!! somehow one way or the other i managed to get to the last 32 . then we had about an hour and half break b4 the big sunday millions was gonna start.
the whole satellite game took like 3 hours++ with 5 mins break every hour.

the sunday millions... wow.. my first time playing poker and i managed to get into the tournament.
7176 ppl signed up. total prize money about $1.45 million.
wow... money .. $$ KA-CHING !!!
lol
anyways, i had ppl say FCK U FCK U !!! and then some ppl called me a retard... then about 5 hours later.. i lost out to the fact that i was caught up in the moment..
the guy went all in.. and i thought .. i could get rid of him.. bah humbugs.. he had a pair of covered kings.. jibet !!! lol

well.. it was an experience !! i'd say .. i won a little prize money. that's a consolation.
first foray into the world of poker.. ahahha
well that's it for the report.

got my japanese visa.

1 year multiple entries. each entry 90 days. nice ! anyways, i think i did mention that japanese efficiency was also seen in the embassy ???!!?? alright, please scratch that. the time i went was early in the morning and i was one of the first person there so service was fast. i found the service to be comparable to other embassies where they are not really that quick.. well.. can't blame them just that it was my bad luck that my visa wasn't printed. 1. i went in the morning at 10 at stated on the paper. 2. she tried to find it.. couldn't find my passport. and then she said it's not ready yet.. please come back in the afternoon. T_T. (i shouldn't have woken up so early) 3. i went back to the embassy after lunch. took warren st to green park. it was stated severe delays but when i went on it.. it was quite quick. 4. i was the second in line to collect visa. not ready.. T_T.... he said.. 5 mins.. they are gonna print it now... 5. i waited.... 5 mins.... 10 mins.... 15 ...

my boring weekend

i went to camden on sat and almost got rammed by a stupid green car on the way back. anyways, i was bored. and it was a nice day. don't know anything bout tour de france, or wimbledon. took my bike out. and cycled down towards camden. it was a change from cycling to work. i spent £7 in sainsburys cos they were having a half price sale on john west's tuna in cans. the usual price is about £3.19. bought some stuffs.. ( coulnd't buy a lot cos i don't wanna ride home on a punctured bike) but i bought too many as well. i bought jaffa biscuit for 69p. for 24 pieces. finished it b4 sat was over. took some photos on the way. went into o2 to see if i could get any nice phones for free. turned out that i couldn't because i havent paid any phone bills since last year. looks like i'm gonna hvae to switch my sim card to a pay as you go thingy. then i went to the outdoor emporium to take a look at the karrimor travelpack. i dunno why .. that one seems to call out to me other...

rain rain rain ...

i went to thomas global exchange on sunday. there was a long queue just to change money. so indeed my recommendation of the place was correct. it was in a quiet place. but it looked alright. there were lotsa ppl. and ppl who were walking past were very intrigue by this long line in front of a money changer. that's about it. i still need to change a little bit more. so i'll wait for my next round b4 i go there again. it was pissing rain outside. i thought i'd have to wait till it settled down. but as it is with london's rain, it just is not like the torrential downpour back in msia. lighting and thunder. yippee.. i used to hide whenever i hear thunder and see the lightning. and then i grew out of being scared of it. now i'm scared of a different kind of thing. that aside, nothing else is special. i brought food to work today. from the baguette i bought from somerfield on sunday. it was 62p for 4 wholemeal ones. i stuffed it with corned beef i bought from sainsbury. a...
