Default Re: Getting to the bottom of CARDS

I'm about 100 pages in now and still enjoying.
I'm very disiplined in my play and really don't have tilt problems. I feel physically ill when this guy wins a hand and "plays the rush" every time, or when he plays his hands on the button blind simply becouse of position etc. etc.
This guy is a freaking trainwreck but I am enjoying it. The repulsion that I feel is a sign that I'm engaged with the story I guess.

In some vague way it brings me back to the repuslion that I felt when I read American Psycho. (Mike's obsession with music makes me think of American Psycho too.)

On a down note, it's overkill already with "adrenaline" every hand the guy plays we hear about his adrenaline rush.
It's a bit much.
