First, I have a question for any dog owners.......(WARNING, PRETTY DISGUSTING....do not read if you are eating, about to eat or generally have a weak stomach)
Just had a horrific experience with my dog. He was outside in the garden and as I looked out of the kitchen window I could see him eating something on the lawn. I went out to investigate to find out he was actually eating some kind of excrement (origin unknown)........to make matters worse he had also decided to roll around in it!!! GREAT!
I slung him straight into the bath and gave him a thorough clean, whilst trying to stop my dinner from making a reappearance!! Once he was clean I ordered him to bed, glad that my traumatic experience was over.......WRONG!
He then decides to vomit the eaten excrement all over my kitchen floor........wtf!!! The smell was horrendous!!!
What I want to know is.........Is this normal behaviour for a dog??? Is he trying to tell me to stop buying supermarket own brand dog food??? Does my dog have mental health issues??? Is he ill???
This is our family dog who we have lovingly cared for since he was a puppy 3 years ago.....this is how he repays us!! My stomach turns when I think about the times I have let this dog lick my face.......he is literally in the dog house and has an indefinite ban from the front room!!!
Apes are quite well known for it, something to do with bonding as bizarre as it sounds.
It's also regularly witnessed in dogs. There can be numerous reasons for this.
It does not have mental health issues. He could be ill, but unlikely, unless he was showing any other signs.
A common cause is a lack of certain types of nutrients in the diet. Maybe try some dog food with a bit more nutriotional value than what is currently being used. Worth a shot.
I would just monitor the situation, and let your dog know it's not on.
Another thing that can trigger it is stress/ anxiety. I wouldn't worry to much about it, could well be a one off. And if he was sick afterwards, will be a good lesson in it's own right.
Cheers larson
Pretty much the story of the session really, flopping well and getting outdrawn.
Played the £500 BH and just finished in 9th......again pretty frustrated though as I was sitting 3/9. Got kings in the bb, button (big stack) limped in so I 3x raise.....board runs out xQQ, bet/call, jack on the turn c/c, river is another jack (also bringing a 3rd club).......what a shocking board......sigh c/f. Lost 77<A10 and then busted out with AK<77.
Still a cash is a cash but felt like I could have won.

Haven't got any hands to post. I have no issues with any of the winning or losing hands. The 2 big big losses on the cash tables were down to obvious mistakes that I don't need reminding about!! lol
BR = £74.57
i remember that vid doing the rounds at work
saying that, there was a lot of vids on youtube of people watching the said video. now they are funny but it might lead to curiosity as to what exactly they are watching
1. This is just madness on my part. I had just won a big pot against the oppo after I flopped a set against their overpair. I thought they might be on tilt, chasing the flush and just betting the river after they had missed. Big mistake.....they flopped the world!! After some thought I figure that betting the flop is ok, betting the turn is a mistake and the river is just awful!!!!

Off work tomorrow so gonna have another session in a bit. Just playing £500 BH for now.
Update later
Back to cash I go.
Massive step backwards........questioning whether or not I'm cut out to play cash. Few beers tonight, tried to be smart, making moves and dumb plays......4nl and moves (especially dumb ones) do not mix!
Doing my nut in now, I used to be a disciplined nit.....and it worked. Now, I aint got a clue what's going on lol.....I'm trying to be too fancy and it don't wash!!!!
Struggling!
This should be sooo easy to beat. I need more patience, I miss playing the mains etc. and I'm looking for the quick fix. Miss mtt's, have never really been a cash player but it's a low variance way to build so gonna have to knuckle down!!
Wrist slapped, dog kicked and strong words had with oneself!!!
Roll is up and down like a tarts knickers atm.......must stop!!
BR = £63.82
Discipline mate !
I just wanna get to the £100 mark so I can start playing more mtt's.
Wd again on your SPT win!
Ah well I still have more than I deposited, just gotta stop having the odd spewy session.
1. Oppo here will not fold any pair.....they got paid off here. Maybe I should have slowed down?? But if they don't fold any pair then I guess I want these calls in the long run
The other tables saved me from what could have been a disastrous session!!!
Having a break and going to play some more later.
BR = £61.04
Just bubbled the £250 BH.......sigh but took 3 heads to make my buy in back

This hand was the one that broke me. I win this then who knows?????
EDIT: Can't be bothered to play anymore tonight.

Nothing to report! Having a mental week at work so haven't had the time to play.
Looking through the forum I could not help but laugh at my favourite diary (by far).....robbie1992!!! Things are certainly heating up with CCF. It certainly has all the right ingredients for a duel on the tables!!!
Perhaps I need a war of words on my diary to spice things up!
Hope to be back on the tables in the next couple of days, miss poker but work is king!
AWFUL time on the tables, truly awful.
Cash tables were a nightmare. Ran kings into aces, flopped top 2 in my bb and lose to runner runner flush (although I should really have folded on the river!). Get aces....yes come on......no customers! Get AK, have 3 callers and miss the flop. Ended the session with a poor call to lose another 3 quid. NOT GOOD!
Played the £500 BH, faired slightly better. Down to the last 70 and I 3bet shove my 13 bigs with AJ into the chip leaders A5.......only surprise was that the 5 came down on the flop and not the river.
ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS.........every table I sat on treated me the same, very unkindly!!!
Welcome back!!!
Some happier news: Got caught speeding in my work van on the way home tonight..........FFS!!!!
Apart from that, all is well
BR = £47.46
Back on the game tomorrow night. I fear a stressful day coming on tomorrow. Will prob be coming home from work minus my crown jewels as they adapt to their new life as my boss's earings!!
Slowly bleeding money atm so played less tables. Started off the evening with a 12k BH sat, I prob shouldn't but it was only £1.60 and there is always the chance of a good return if I manage to get through......BIG if these days though! Anyway, ran kings into aces in the 3rd hand and that was that. No complaints there though, the hand played itself.
Finished 16th in the mini freeroll.....10 seats
Finished 39th in the ascot freeroll.....28 horses (and gtd seat in the mini)
So, frustrating start but the fact I was getting so close meant I couldn't be playing that bad???? Dunno confidence is pretty low right now.
Just finished 2 tabling 4nl alongside the £500 BH.
The BH is going pretty much the same most nights. Getting to the late stages and losing crucial flips or making a mistake.....took 3 heads tonight though so made my money back.

I'm still struggling on the cash tables atm. Having some bad luck but also don't feel that I'm playing very well either. Will post 3 hands below, one where I am unlucky and 2 that I think I played badly.
1. Just ul here? No reads on oppo. Is my bet sizing and play ok?
Advice very much needed on the last 2 hands in particular please. Like I said, they are not big pots but they do take their toll over the long run.
BR = £44.32........help me!
It seems to me you've forgotten about the fun side of poker and you're chasing £ signs to the end of the rainbow and you aren't going to find the big pot of gold when you get there.
Just chill, have some fun and remember why you started playing poker in the first place. I rarely win, I play (on a different site) about $40 a month. Sometimes that $40 goes into profit and pays for the next month, sometimes it doesn't.
We would all like to win the big money, but....If you're not good enough then you're not good enough. Sky should start (or maybe they do) some 60 seat 20p buy in tournements. They are great fun, give some good cheap play and they last a while if you're half decent.
But yeah my main point, You're not playing poker for fun, you're deperately chasing ££££'s and that never works out and will only lead you to BUST!!! An when we're bust we can't play anymore and that sucks.
Type in names on SharkScope, 95% of people are losing, this guy obviously needs a time out, chill relax..But hey what do I know. But the A BROKEN MAN £50 OR QUITS, How about the story of how £50 lasted me months playing 10p tourneys and the fun it was winning £1.50 lol. If its the poker we enjoy, the beating other players then the stakes don't really matter do they?
Oh and I just won 80p in a freeroll so my advice is now valid, although I did all in with J-3 about 50'000 chips lol...Yeah I lost. But anywyay, if we play with money we can afford to lose poker never becomes a problem to the point it frustrates us.
@ OHIMGOOD....ty for the post. I agree with most of what you say. However I have not forgotten about the fun side of poker. I still love the game, or I wouldn't play. I'm not having as much fun as I used to as losing is never as good as winning but I am trying to adapt to playing cash rather than mtt's atm so it was always going to be a bumpy ride.
