Well, I spose it’s been a good week.
Poker, however did not go very well, I had some great plans but ran into a few snags.
The first nightmare i had was at the hands of my loyal and trustworthy bank Natwest (doubt i need to explain these again lol) strange I have been at Natwest since i was 12 (which, yes, is more than 3 years ago whoever was about to say that) and never had a spot of bother with them, so what on earth has happened with them over the last 6 weeks I have no idea but they messed up really badly – and I wanted to have a decent chunk of money with me over the weekend so had to go on the mega nip and ruslted some funds up.
Played Cash on friday and there was a decent chunk of action about, we got two 50p/£1 games and two £200 min £1/£2 games running, however for some reason I found myself on the worst table for the whole night and despite me constantly moving about to get to the better games as soon as i got their the games got bad, so i spent the whole evening wondering about and then when we got sat down ran AK into 22 on a AK2 board and said GG to about £600. sigh.
Saturday rolled around and I played the £500, had to pay £550 not £350 after being horribly messed about by everyone – was really annoyed someone told the guy I was buying my seat off I was skint and couldnt afford it…then I gto another seat bought but a communication mix up lost me that as well, but anyway doesn’t matter but still some dirty play somewhere in the midst of this, I wont let it bother me. Lost AQ vs KQ, and QQ vs 63 to the same guy which saw the end of me in the £550, the guy in question played terribly all day and he then went on to win the tournamnet….
Tourney play = all skill, ye sure ! ! !
Having said this I actually enjoyed myself in the masters I found everyone on my table to be really good company and the winner was a nice guy as well, so in the time I played in the comp I had a good time. Looking forward to playing another comp soon tbh.
Luckily as well I bust the tourney Just before the england game so went to see Tommy C and watch the england game and the less said about that game the better! I mean there was a player i the USA team who was RELEASED, yes RELEASED, as in, not even worth keeping him, and he wasn’t worth enough to sell, from WATFORD. yes a WATFORD cast off, and Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Terry and the £1.5m p/week guys couldn’t rustle up a win! still first game and an easy group so in a way professional job done, in other ways a terrible performance!
This leads me to the down points of my week, the world cup – now as some people may be aware Im partial to the occasional sports bet – however I have miles more sensible this year, so allowed myself the world cup to “go for it”……………
Dont want to go into details, but its going VERY VERY BADLY. ! . ! . !
My real world adventures have been going well, the Whitby project is nearly over and I’m really happy with what I’ve done. I have another project lined up for August and then I have some really exciting plans for September, Thinking of another move oversea’s not been away abroad since I got back from Cyprus in october 2008 which is nearly 2 years so Rob suggesting spending 4/6 months over winter in the states so we might check L.A out for the winter - persuading the newly minted Jamie Sykes to join as well
I think I’m going to be making a return to the online felt soon in build up to America – need to make some $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Well hopefully everything’s ok @ the club and everyone’s good, saw Mr Vanzo and Mr Lee at the master’s which was really nice and Peter put in a good show so very well played to him, nice to see you both!
SIGH that I didnt see my old buddy mr Average Dave though, who I believe has now gone back to the STATES :’( See ya later Big buddy take care dude!
STAY I TOUCH!
Thats about all from me – one of these days I will post an interesting blog…….maybe
