Today? Four of a kind!

 If you play poker you'd be aware of what that means. Today's date is four of a kind. Four of ones or rather four Aces in cards. Pretty strong hand huh, but not the strongest! Will get back to poker again. So how did I bring in 2011? Twilight New Moon, Lots of Poker and the first EPL match of 2011!

  Normally and conventionally vampire movies are supposed to be horror kind, however the twilight series is classically superb and amazingly dazzling. It is just the right mixture of everything and I love it for sure.

 Kristen Stewart casts in all the twilight movies and she is hot! How hot? If you speak the Joey language, she's stop eating your food hot! If you speak Fast and Furious language, she's smokin hot! Born in 1990, she's just all of 20 now and has proven her talent more than once!

 So I saw the Twilight New Moon and one thing I noticed this time is that it also has wonderful background score as well. One score which is my best is the scene where Victoria is chased by the Werewolves. Check this out, took me half hour to find this baby on youtube...and is totally worth!

 Ok so enough of Kristen and Twilight, time for Poker. Yes baby! Started playing poker since couple of weeks on FB, it's really gr8 havin lotta fun. You may have elders tellin ya dat gambling is bad and all, but poker is not gambling, it's about doing analysis, taking claculated chances, it's about learning to cope with the winnings and losses. It's kinda similar to managemant education and it makes you a more mature person and improves you decision making capabilities!

  Having already won over $100k in virtual chips I can surely give a tip or two for aspiring poker players. First poker is a game of patience, you need to be very patient, need to see the trend of other players to know what is their style of play. It helps a lot. Also sometimes in a shootout, you may get lucky if you are patient.

 Then one needs to be very good at analyzing the cards which the dealer opens on the table, with that you can figure out what the best hand someone can have and compare it with yours. Also always remember if you have two aces with you, you have a very good chance of winning, however remember it is not the best hand and can be beaten by a flush to A's.And the best one is the royal flush, see above. Finally I would say don't be too defensive, be patient but do take calculated risks as well, the rest you'll learn when ya play!

 Hmm..two things. The third thing? Hehe...Machester United. They are playin the first EPL match of 2011, away to WBA, score is 1-1 currently. My envisage is they'll win EPL for sure this season. Also with the cricket WC around 50 days away and the kinda form the playas are in riy now, it is India's destiny to win!

Too much of work!

 It's around two months now, I am in Bangalore and in a project. With time the work is getting more and more hectic. Thankfully we didn't have high workload on 31st night, although we were in office on 31st, we had our own party and we did bring in the new decade in grand style.

 My steady state is going to start from 18th Jan, just hope I am up to the task by then and can work effectively. My hyderabad room mates who were on project always used to long to get on bench, now I understand why, there is too much of workload and pressure. Perhaps this is  how life is...

 As far as new year resolution goes, I have made one to get into better shape. I will control my diet and do exercise and yoga.

 Bhakti and Gaurangbhai had a wonderful New Year party crusing to Bahamas, I am glad they are enjoying so much and the relationship is getting strong with time, last month was their first anniversary. God bless them.

 Perhaps one of the good thing of working in project is you get 250 bucks a day extra when you work in night shift, but that too is less copared to some other companies. Ne ways this is what I always wanted and I am sure this will make me more mature and experienced in my field.
