InsidePoker's Annette's $20k Freeroll - WON!

[lukybugur]

I have just won the above tourney too  



It"s been a pretty good week ...

WOW! I"m still in shock I think ...

Playing under the username "undef361" due to an admin complication on BetFair from about 8 months ago, I"ve just beaten 245 other runners to win (according to page 13 of this month"s InsidePoker mag), the "package to Annette Obrestad"s pre-WSOPE training camp in London, including travel and accommodation. The winner also receives entry into a 6 man $1,000 freeroll sit&go tournament".

My oh my!

And now I"m in the spare room for 3 reasons;

1) Julia has an early morning flight, has been in bed since 10:30 but has had no sleep as I"ve been clattering about the office

2) Julia is not happy that I keep winning poker packages instead of cash!  

3) There"s no way I could go to bed without telling someone!!!

I"d really like to thank Jim Lang (normally my tormentor) for texting me about this tournament earlier today, for railing me right to the end and for calling me straight after it to congratulate me. I just wish I could remember what he said ...  

And well done to my pal and APAT Regional Travelling buddy Johnny Gibb (Divitts) who finished in 9th when his All-In with AA was called by KJo and QQ. The Q hit on the river. By final tabling he wins "a $212 buy-in to Annette"s $20k guaranteed tournament on Betfair".

I"ll be posting hand details on my blog before I go to sleep - see link below

I so wish I was coming to Cardiff! After my wedding last weekend though, dosh is tight. If anyone"s interested in staking me flights and entry and can offer even half of a single bed, please gimme a call!

That"s one hell of a week, nice one Neil.

Oh, you couldn"t give me 6 numbers could you...... say, between 1 and 49...?  

[tumblet]

WOW good week, well done

[Zanshin]

Well played Neil - this is becoming a habit  

[UKChamp]

Congrats,

With that form im sure everyone is glad you cant make it!

[janc]

What a fantastic week you"ve had Niel, long may your streak go on

[UKChamp]

Bad mental image

Aaaaaaaaarrrggh

[janc]

[DJKebab]

Congrats again! Incredible week, you must be on cloud nine! Keep it up!

[Jon MW]

Congrats!

You should try and get a seat for the GUKPT in Brighton, with the "lucky" streak your on at the minute you"d probably end up winning that as well

[lukybugur]

Thanks very much Folks!  

It"s great to have all of you here for such support. And with the Cardrunners vids and the Hand Analysis sections on this website, I"ve been thinking clearer and reading opponents better recently.

I"ll have a look into GUKPT Qualifiers. I"m home alone tonight so another late night playing poker won"t result in sleeping on our gawd-awful spare bed. I have no money in my BlueSquare account and, as we just had our Wedding party on Saturday night there and as I have a tax bill to pay at the end of this month, I"ll have to beg hard to get the Bank Card this month ...

I"ll definately register for the KO Points Freeroll on 31st Jan @ 20:30. Freerolls seem to be my thing ...

Wow Neil,

Another great result, very well done M8.

Pity you can"t make Cardiff but will see you at the next regional if not before.
