So......a week to Vegas.....cant wait.

Just ordered all of my $$ and picked them up. Some reason, Post Office decided that 4.5k in $$ didnt need 100s.  Yes yes, they have given me all of it in 50s....balla!!

"50 Dolla" Bill Y"all!"

Have been a bit excitable on the staking and have pieces of a few friends out there also, so lets hope someone makes the monies!!

Been playing cash at Harbourside last few weeks, and doing ok.  Playing £1/£1 ive turned £200 into £700 and £200 into £300 however the second session left me with a sick feeling.  Managed to get into an £800 pot with AA v TT and AK, only for TT to river a set aipf.....SICK!!!  He He, my own fault for deciding on the turn that i was gonna spend the money in vegas playing 2/5 as a shot.....stupid Dann.

Other News, Smashed my iphone yesterday at the petrol station.....id like to say that i threw it at a robber, fleeing with a young ladies bag, to daze him before i stepped in for a Citizens Arrest.....however i just dropped it.

Looking forward to the Bristol Leg of the new tour, youll mostly find me grinding £1/£1 me thinks.....

Caio for now!

Poker, Singing and the One That Never Played The Main

Fridays at APAT Festivals, since the demise of the Cash Tour, have always been interesting and this one tops the lot.  Firstly i manage to make a simple 1hr drive last 2 1/2 hrs with an inability to remember where the hell i am going, and a Sat Nav that seems to have a mind of its own.  Upon arriving, i find Dwayne and his friend Mark (Sorry Acquaintance) at the Hotel and head to the bowling alley for some Pool, whilst awaiting the arrival of the rest of the Motley Crue.  I dont win all my frames, which is just stupid, but is just a small blip on the night as a whole.

After finding nowhere that will allow us to eat and watch the Rugby at the same time, we decide to hit the Casino.  Fed and watered, Dwayne and Dave leave Chris, Simon and I with Mark and the night just snowballs......

Deciding that the bowl 50p/50p cash table is the way to go, Mark and I sit whilst the other spin on the table games.  Mark is somewhat drunk and decides that a good introduction to us all and APAT is to berate just about everyone....the dealers, the players...hmmmm right....good plan sir!  I spend most of the evening encouraging the whole cash table to sing "You are my Sunshine" on multiple occassions....Mark finds this not as much fun as i do, and before long has vanished after i jokingly tell him if he doesnt behave, he"ll be walking back to the hotel......i guess he did.

I find out in the morning that he has gone home, and supposedly he thought we were being horrible to him....well that couldnt be farther from the truth, but i just leave that be and carry on with my weekend!!!

The Main Event is pretty uneventful for me, first table is nothing short of friendly with Brian Yates, PokerJason, Mrs Duncan and Sharon all on my table, i struggle to get anything going probably due to the bright pink pokeriety patch i am doning, but a table move cant come soon enough.

Sadly, i bust about 3 hands into the new table vs Jon Laight and Dave Griffiths when i get 97cc in on 765ssc vs A3ss and KQss...the turn is the 9s and we dont boat up :( Boooo.....

Jump into the £30 side event and spin like a hero, have 3x ave most of the comp and bar 2 missteps....Letting Leigh 3b me pre with 85o and not get punished, and jamming JJ into AA (we win obvs) i make the FT in the top 3 stacks....Dwayne also makes it there.  I refuse a saver for 7th and get berated, ironically Dwayne busts me on the bubble but loses HU to the guy that wanted the saver...so my refusal costs me £50 and earns villian an extra £50....ooops

Driving back to the hotel, i managed to get pulled over by the police, to top my night off.....the jobsworth is obviously testing to see if i am drunk etc, he swiftly lets me on my way, and gives me directions to the hotel....but i take another wrong turn....well done me....get back to the hotel and the TG boys are no where to be seen....at least i can get to sleep before Simon gets back....i mean, anyone else know snoring that sounds like a Grizzly Bear and a Hyena fighting??  Painful....haha

Sunday is PLO8 side event for Dwayne, Simon and I, whilst Chris and Dave are still in the ME....but not long enough to stop them jumping into the PLO8 also.  Dwayne is first out but manages to get a reentry, and we all fall like flies....except for Dwayne who manages to navigate his 2nd final table and ends up taking it all besting John Murray Heads Up....WP Sir.

The poker was far from memorable for me this weekend however it has a few memorable moments.

Mark...just Mark...wow
Getting the table to break out "you are my sunshine" "bang bang" "boom shake the room" and many other classics
Laura demanding i "eat her burger"
LegoHead making me show my best "Louis Spense Walk" across the casino.
Derek Rowland....what an absolute legend.
