Weirdness while playing live last Friday. Paul was dealing. I was in the small blind. The first card hit my chips and flipped over - Ace of diamonds. "Phooey" I said, knowing that it would have to be shuffled into the deck and I would get another card. Paul said maybe he could give it back to me. After the mandatory shuffling he proceeded to deal. Wow. The first card I looked at was the ace of diamonds. What are the odds? I got an 8 of diamonds to go with it and called a $7 raise to see a flop. I ended up getting AAAA8 for the 8pm high hand. I guess it was meant to be for me to get that ace.
On less of a weird scale, I got the A8 of diamonds again later and ended up with AAA88 for the 10pm high hand and it held up too. I've always liked A8 - don't ask me why. It seems to like me too.

It was fated. I don't know why we become attached to certain hands. They become sort of self fulfilling prophecies at times. I am partial to 8/8 as have had very good luck with hitting sets.
