Pigeon, Pancakes and… Beauty?

Friday, October 20, 2017 Posted by Alexander Lucas No comments

Last week while we were about to prepare for some bbq there was a loud thump and I turned to watch where it came from.
A bit surprised, I see a pigeon that had appearantly got a bit confused and flew head first straight into our terrace windows.
Totti was on the terrace at the moment and I guess he was more surprised and shocked, and luckily enough (for the pigeon), we already had something to eat, so the pigeon was left alone to recover.
A minute or two later he was ready to get out of there, and BOOM, yeah you guessed it, he tried the window once again… not sure what he was doing, but he sooner or later recovered enough to be able to get away on his own accord.

There was a €100.000 guarantee prizepool tournament held at Casino Portomaso this weekend and I decided to play.
Sadly enough I had a piss poor performance and I realized that I need to work not only on my game, but also on the mental part, and to make sure that I am ready to handle the overflow of “slowly developed” people that gather to play these events.
I have a full understanding for the fact that there may be people playing even though they may not fully understand the game of poker, and the rules and so on.
But the people that I see playing these tournaments over and over again, and still have not got enough decency to post their blinds and antes when it’s time to do so.
This then forces the dealer to call out to them with a reminder, EVERY FUCKING TIME!, yes these are the people that I truly feel deserve a fucking beating in every single break until they learn.

Feeling sorry for ourselves, we decided to treat ourselves with some pancakes on Sunday and I went to buy whatever we needed and I went passed a place I normally pass, and I stopped and read on the plaque on the building.

I have to admit that seeing this building from outside, and getting the feel of a place where the Walking Dead would be suitable, I was very, very surprised with this plaque.
If this is accurate, then I hope the inside is a bit more “stimulating” for the people that study there, and I wish them all the best.
After the short trip, Totti whipped up some pancakes and I admit that I could have this at least once a week, as it is damn nice, and it brings me back to my childhood.

Until next time, enjoy the sun people!
