Nice one Skinbonce.  I wont bother to call you this evening as I guess you"ll be tired, but I have final realised where you have been going wrong all your life - you are inherently nocturnal; daylight isn"t your friend!

Poker playing time is going to be at a premium this week as my social diary seems to have sprung to life. Tonight I"m seeing Primal Scream at The University of East Anglia, tomorrow afternoon i"m racing at Fakenham, Thursday night is Bad Manners at The Waterfront, Friday is Rich Hall at the Norwich Playhouse, Saturday I"ve got a party at a mate"s house then next Sunday its The Levellers back at the university. How am I supposed to earn my regular pennies with all that going on?

And so here over in the land of the tractor, something special for lovers of bad beat stories. There are three of us left in a six handed SNG on Betfair, I"m dealt king/jack offsuit and go all-in. I"m called by Jack/ten of hearts and, to cut a long story short, the Queen of Hearts falls on the river to give my opponent a straight flush. Sometimes I hate this game.
  Incidentally, next sunday is the Norwich City versus Ipswich Town local derby and I believe its being shown live on Sky. As the current crop of Norwich City players are performing on the wrong side of embarrassing, I fear we may get an absolute pasting from our "friends" from along the A140. If this happens, I may have to go into hiding.

7000 hits? Is there no end to the amount of drivel posted on this blog that people will tolerate? I"d never expected things to last this long

Well, I suppose I must now officially be famous seeing as I feature on the APAT Advent Calender. I"ll have to get my agent to book me on next year"s premier league poker.

Just to say thank you for the really useful advice before I played Omaha for the first time ever yesterday. "Remember if there isn't 3 suited cards on the board there can't be a flush" is just the sort of insider knowledge you would never work out for yourself without clues from a more experienced player. It must have helped as I scraped into the points.

Of course I could have just said something sensible like "Prepare by watching Robert Williamson"s Omaha videos on Stox, they are very good" but I"ve come to the conclusion that Omaha is best played by those with the most tenuous grasp of the rules, so I kept my advice as vague as possible.
  You might care to remind Steve that there are two members of our family above him in the league table.........

I guess I should also point out in Steve"s defence that he hasn"t been playing in the tournaments so it isn"t surprising he hasn"t got any points.
