Hurrah and Huzzah! I have now cashed in a UK casino outside Norfolk thanks to my 4th place from 21 runners which netted me £50 for my £30 invested. Surely being a Pokerstars pro is now only just around the corner.

I"ve just telephoned Stratton Motor Company (the local Aston Martin dealership for those who wouldn"t know) and told them..........
Not to wait up for you! :P

Hell"s bells, its been a while since I"ve posted. How slack of me. I"m still concentrating on cash play and seem to be doing way better six handed than I was on full tables. I"ve also temporarily shunted Betfair into the sidings as at the lower buy-ins its impossible to bluff anyone off a pot and there"s nothing more frustrating than sitting and waiting for hands at a six-max table. Blue Square is my current site of choice, largely because its far easier to play "real" poker on the lower buy-in tables on Ipoker than Ongame. Indeed, I seem to have added a couple of additional plays to my repertoire which are confusing the hell out of my current opponents (call a raise from BB preflop,check call flop,min check/raise the turn with total air anyone?)
In addition, because I"m bored witless of my current job and with continued government attacks on public servants, I"m looking to branch out a little. Starting from almost no capital I"m looking to make a few quid off my own back. Initially I"ll have a few t-shirts printed which I intend selling on Ebay and, assuming I sell anything at all, reinvesting in more t-shirts and so on. Hopefully this time next year I"ll be a millionaire!

Whoops. Looks like I disobeyed the first rule of blog-writing, namely if you ever post how well you are running or how good you are, the poker gods will punish you. Since my previous post I"ve been all-in preflop with a large pair on 3 occasions and each time seen somone spike an ace on the river to steal my money. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Oh FFS, this is just getting stupid. For the first time in a while I decided that tonight I would play my regular tournament, the 7.30pm 8-handed deepstack on Ladbrokes. Second hand in the first level the blinds are 10/20 (starting stack 5000),I"m in the small blind and get dealt KK. There is a limper, the button raises to 100,I reraise to 300 which is followed by the limper and original raiser both calling. The flop is 999, I check, the limper bets 0.5 of the pot,button calls, I shove and am called by both opponents. The limper turns over A5 suited (yes really!), the button has QQ and I am momentarily elated before the turn is another queen meaning the lucky f****r to my right has a bigger full house than me. Sometimes poker sucks. Back to the grind...............
