Pet Peeve





Since I've been playing for three days...er 11 + years now I want to get something off my chest. And I'm not talking about the congealed Ben and Jerry's ice cream before I passed out last night.

When you succesfully register for a PokerStars game it starts off with the game showing as starting in 2 minutes. After a minute the friendly message is that the game will stat in a minute. After another minute the game will start within one minute. After three minutes, the game that would start in two minutes finally starts.

Start the scary music -

Da da da da!

Your time is being stolen. All those stolen minutes add up. Much like Richard Pryor in the Superman movie these unnoticed minutes lost are being collected and invested. Someone, probably Itty, out there has 4.5 quadrillion minutes because they stole them and invested in CDs and low risk mutual funds.

Your time is being stolen by the mere fact that you're wasting it pretending you can get ahead on Internet poker.
