CHEZGER 2012...
Many blogs on here do / will feature reports of the above so I"ll try to be brief.
Checked into the Wirral Eastham Travelodge PRISON, a place which can only be described as a destination where loneliness goes to self-harm, at 7.30pm on Friday night and jumped in a taxi just in time to start the game at the Aquarium.
If you read Ger"s blog you will know that the aquarium is essentially a procession of bad play and out-draws... and I clearly read the manual and busted with AJ v KJ AIPF, K on the turn.
A good laugh and a few beers, then back to Ger"s for a good laugh and a few beers.
Saturday saw a warm up session in the pub with various APATers then the tourny at 5pm. My table included the wee man, Laxie, Adam, Andy Kingham & Asa plus some locals. I raked in an early 15k pot rivering the nuts vs top 2 (I was dealing
) then gave a load back when the oppo flopped 2-pair vs my AA. I paid all three streets but could
have lost more.
Much laughter and donking and merriment and we are down to 2 tables. Adam Sharples had had a particularly golden period so it was no great shock when my 4-bet QQ shove was snapped off by Aces and that was all she wrote. A bit of a sit n go with Phil TC, Stu, Rob S & some locals but I was all pokered out by then and returned to the prison for an early night (at 2am).
Ger you are a legend. Thank you for letting me play in this!
