Online Poker - Monday

Played in the PokerPlayerUK GP on bwin and was the 6th person out!!!!

An early position made a 3x raise (he had done this a few times already), I made a 3x re-raise with 66 and got a call.
Flop: 6 8 3; checked to me so I made a half pot bet which was called.
Turn: 8; oppo made a half pot bet so I shoved with my FH... Got called and he showed 99.
River: 9

Was left with about 120 chips which I didn"t recover from!!


Never mind that"s poker!!!

Time for Pokerstars......

Played in a $15, 180 Seater:

Early on I had a treble-up with AA v AK v AJ

Managed to make it to the Final Table in 8th position when again sitting with AA there was a raise totaling about a 1/3rd of my chips, followed by a re-raise totaling 2/3rds.... Needless to say I shoved and got two callers.

AA v AQ v AQ which held up

I managed to watch others fall and ended HU, but with only about 40K in chips against a 230K stack....
Fortunately AA came to my rescue again and I manage to get a double up.

So with 80K against 150K I faced a raise with 55 and shoved, got a call and he showed K5.... Needless to say a K on the turn and no help on the river meant I finished 2nd for $495  ;D

I wouldn"t have played this game if I was still in the other tournament so it just goes to show, being unlucky could end up being luckiest thing to happens to you that night!! No need for TILT  :P

Went into the library yesterday and asked the lady for books on suicide.

"Third row along, on the top shelf." she said.

After five minutes of searching I retuned to the lady and said "Excuse me, but there doesn"t seem to be any books there!!"

"I know" she said "No one ever seems to bring those ones back!!"

With just a week and a day before I start the Goliath Tournament in Coventry (followed by APAT WCOAP ME if I don"t win the Goliath!) I thought I"d just watch a driving video to get me in the mood for the journey:

Sometimes driving looks fun  ;D

Online Poker

Had an awful session on the MTT"s last night. It seemed to be a night of Quads.....

At first it went my way. I called an aggro raising player pre flop with  AK, flop came AAK, he shoved with JT! I called and hit the A on the turn (yeah, I know I didn"t need to. But it"s nice!)

From then on I lost 3 times to Quads (played about 8/9 turbo 180 seaters) having hit a FH every time!
The most memorable one being:

All-in with QQ v A9: Board Q99 x 9




Live Poker

On a more pleasant note (and in keeping with other blogs)......

3 sleeps till Coventry
5 sleeps till Nottingham


;D
