Cringeeeeeeee  :-[ Just read it again and was about to hit delete when I see Ger has quoted me  :-[ :D

Edit.. Now the penny has dropped I am even more curious about this bit LOL

"Some one suggested a zoo, not a full zoo just one which contained rhinos apparently, I am assuming it is a conservation type establishment so I agree to put in a donation or 2.
It was not a zoo, again I am too green for this place, although I made several donations and I hope the rhino survives at least for another couple of years." ???

Back to reality tonight with the £30 self deal at Gala, 4 tables of mahjong in the background, nice and relaxing.
As per usual ended up dealing till 11pm, then got moved tables, to cut a long story short,was the bubble boy ran J9 suited into AA hit a flush draw and the 9 on the flop but didnt improve.
Saver had been agreed half an hour before so doubled my money.
Pays for the game with the Stockton boys on Thursday.

The first hand I remember was JP raised (JJ), I reraised with (AQ) folds round to JP who flats, I can"t remember chip stacks at the time but had enough to 3 bet fold or shove depending upon situation.The flop comes down with 3 low cards, no flush or str8 draws both check, turn again a low card JP checks I bet out, JP asks me if he shoves would I fold, I have to inform him we are not allowed to talk about the hand, and after a small dwell he folds, I breathe a huge sigh of relief, he still doesn"t believe that I had AQ there to this day but I honestly did mate.

Well, they tried to take me down, but skill and luck prevailed and i managed to finsh 2cd las night at Rileys.
Both of the posters above tried in vain to take my chips but failed, although i did go in behind against Stuarts AJ with K 10, the J on the flop gave him more hope, but when you are running well the K was always going to bink on the river, ul Stu standard play at that stage.

Credit Card bill arrived today with hotel bill on it, again a big thanks to whoever got that rate for Vegas ridiculous price for 6 nights, out tonight to a home game with the person who first showed me how to play poker a few years ago, he robbed a few of us blind in the first few weeks, but times have changed since the early days, not driving tonight so beer and chilli and good banter will occur.
