For Malcolm

Been a while since i have posted, so thank you again for all the lovely messages

The funeral was a lovely, lovely ceremony and we were all blown away by the amount of people who turned up, which was way way WAY beyond what we expected.

A nice wake with family and some good friends was followed personally by a trip to the pub with my best mates, who I love to bits. Was a really good way to send the old fella off

The amount of paperwork that needs to be done after someone dies is bloody mind-boggling. It has been a bit of a stress, but we are getting there finally. Our last goodbye to Dad (for the time being) will be on Friday by the look of it, when we scatter his ashes, its sure to be another emotional day, but its all steps on the long road ahead.

In other news, I am looking to play the GUKPT Omaha side event next week. Omaha is a game that I love, and I have put a staking thread up on here looking to sell 50% of my action. I will be playing it regardless, sold 10% so far, so if you fancy a bit of a sweat then get over there and get involved

Just a quick word about a good mate and one of the Stockton Massive, Brian Harland.

This man is a total hero, and a very very good poker player. As you will undoubtably know, he has a staking agreement on here, which I am lucky enough to be a part of. He has made alot of final tables for us so far, and has ran the stake up by $1800 in just 4 months so far, but I know that he is getting really down on the game at the minute.

He plays alot, and has the best temperement of anyone I know, and its not nice seeing him getting more and more knarked off at variance.

So, Brian, you are doing awesome mate, jsut keep it up and try and get back to enjoying the game. Im sre we can try and help this on a Thursday if you can get yourself down

Hope you are all well. x

So today is the day that i play my first ever GUKPT side event, the £75+ £8 PLO event, i really cant wait.

Stockton is NOT the mecca of PLO, and i  think that there will be some decidedly under average players taking part (GiMac is playing ffs :p ) I cant wait to get sat down and playing tonight, it starts from 6 and i am sure that i will be trying to update the staking thread and facebook as much as possible

Two things for you to consider StuSon

1) There is a cash PLO game at G or Gala three or four nights a week with a solid bunch of regular players who, contrary to popular opinion, have a lot of clue about the game. Ben Ning, Paul Wilson (wheelchair, middle-aged) Johnny Chan, Rocky, Luke, all make money at the game, as does your mate Adrian, not to mention Mo 'welcome to England, I raise blind' Latif

2) Update in breaks, not in game. Headphones and focus are the order of the day.

cheers pops

I am sure there will be some people who know what they are doing, but I cant see it being that large a % of the field. Im not underestimating anyone though, and I will be playing my A game all the way through.

I have the iPod on charge as we speak, am really really really looking forward to this, its getting 100% of my focus and attention. If i go out, it wont be through me making a mistake.

Agree with Dave, its not your usual G crowd, gl any way.
