There are several unusual, unofficial holidays I've found out about from the internet, over the years; here's a sampling:
- pi day: March 14th, aka 3/14, in celebration of the mathematical constant π
- Tax Freedom day: according to Wikipedia, the first day of the year in which a nation as a whole has theoretically earned enough income to fund its annual tax burden
- Programmer's day: according to Wikipedia, an international professional holiday, recognized in many technology companies and programming firms, that is celebrated on the 256th (hexadecimal 100th...) day of each year
Of the above, only pi day is guaranteed to fall on the same day every year. Tax freedom day will vary depending on the current year's tax laws, gross national income, and several other factors. Programmer's day will fall on September 13th in a non-leap year and on September 12th in a leap year.
In the spirit of such unusual holidays, I'd like to propose a new poker player-specific one; I'm calling it Poker session bicentennial day. This will be the day of the year when the poker player in question played his 200th session. I started recording my poker sessions in March of 2009, but didn't have a Poker session bicentennial day that year. I'm pleased to say that I've had one every year since then. Here are the dates they fell on:
2010 12-03
2011 10-22
2012 9-04
2013 8-12
As you can see, I celebrated this year's bicentennial last night. You may be wondering what the earliest possible bicentennial date is. I'm hear to tell you :-) In a non-leap year, it's July 19th; in a leap year, it's July 18th.

Actually "-ennial" is the root for "year". Your post should be titled "bicentediurnal" day.
