Proper post is on it way but Adrian Lewis is 3.5 to beat Phil Taylor tonight on Betfair. I will be getting on that for sure, this will be the first of Rodder"s WCOAP tips.
Will be posting a full update shortly.

Not the best of first tips that haha. I think I might have to make Taylor second favourite for this at the moment him vs MVG in Glasgow will a one hell of a battle.
Day 3 of The Mission in March then and so far I have not veered off course. Let"s see how long that lasts *lol*. Firstly let me say thanks to Ian for the comments, I will discuss with you I am sure in Stratford.
It is Thursday Night and, as mentioned above, that means Premier League Darts at the moment, I do really enjoy this competition seeing the best players meeting each other every week. I find it hard to see past MVG to win the league portion but in the knockout anything can happen. Although MVG has won pretty much everything lately he has not exactly dominated the majors. Still expect Gary Anderson to do well if he gets into the top 4. Will check his odds at that point.
Played some poker tonight but did not play very well ending up about $13 down after 200 hands tbh should have been more down but got a bit lucky when I had AQ > KK AIPF for a pot of about $15 Vs a short stack. The Ace from space arrived on the river. Still happy enough with the game at the moment and expect to be competitive in Stratford, hopefully do a bit more than just that as well. The main aims are obvious firstly try and go top of the rankings for season nine. This will not be so easy as the man currently sat at the top is two time APAT Champion Brian Yates. I would make Brian a decent sized favourite due to his obvious edge over me in mixed games and his slight advantage in the points. Needless to say it is not a two horse race and other players are likely to come into play at some point. Jason Kemp and Don Roberts are two people I would say are in with a shot of making a comeback run at it. The second aim on the Championship is to try and extend my advantage in the all time rankings over the great John Murray, again a very tough ask.
Will be looking to keep up my volume in matched betting as well with an accumulator going on with Paddy Power later and hopefully Ladbrokes tomorrow as I do like to have 4/5 running at all times. Tonight I need Barcelona to win to continue to increase the profit margin on the ones I already have going. They are on my William Hill accumulator if they win I will be assured a profit of £10 on that one then need to wait for the weekend for the next legs.
Rodder"s song of the day is for everybody who is heading to the WCOAP and playing the main event.

OK this is getting to be a habit 4 days out of 4 in March with updates (I get a pass for the next two days as the forum is offline - yay). It is Friday night but I am sadly working on Saturday so won"t be able to go to the football however I am looking forward to the Newport County Vs Bristol Rovers derby game just a day before I travel to WCOAP. I could have had a ticket to see Swansea as well this week, I have not been to many games this year due to work, poker and things I have seen just 4 Newport County games (and one Swansea game).
Anyway I have played a few hands today and done OK being up about $80. Here are some fun hands.

This is me on the right side of a 50/50 (although the the flop is played terribly by my opponent)

This is me getting pretty lucky

This is a very rare piece of footage - this is me playing a hand well (I am way ahead or way behind on the turn he is completely polarized)

Still generally happy with how I am playing at the moment still seem to be winning more than I lose (not sure how, the luckbox must be doing it"s job *lol*). I need to do a little work on my PLO game before going to Stratford I know. I did just realise that by this time in two weeks I will have completed work and will probably be making preparations for WCOAP. Tomorrow I will present the essential guide to spending a week away playing poker and how travelling away from home has changed from when I was kid. I have mentioned this before but this is definitely different to a standard APAT thinking about it I am thinking about the correct strategy for various tournaments. Normally when heading to an APAT weekend it is who is going what time is everybody gettingthere and is there a good pub to go too on the Friday night. Whilst I have no doubt we will do some of that stuff in Stratford this one is about poker first and foremost and is the only event I say that about.
Setup a matched Accumulator on Ladbrokes today so I now have 4 running ideal result in tonight"s game is a Middlesbrough win which would advance my position in two of them. EV of them all together at the moment is about £25 which is OK for a quick 15 minutes after work each day. Love matching accumulators it has a strategy all of its own knowing when to lay each leg off and know the EV of the situation at that time and setting them up to get the max bang from the insurance, it"s not as complex as poker but still holds a lot of interest for me. BTW if people don"t have a clue what I am on about in this section and want too ask me at some point when you see me :-)
A Song for today - this is one I often listen too before playing a day two at APAT
