Been lazy updating the last few weeks so will try to wrap it up for you all, without being too boring.
Not really been playing much, altho did venture to the Gala in Bristol last weekend with a friend for the £10 Triple Chance.
2.5k s/s blinds starting 25/50 and 20 mins levels.
Now this tournament is soooo soft, and was lucky enough to get the worst table ever
However this led to me busting in a record 21mins (for all 3 chances!)
First hand i get
and iso raise a few limpers, the guy to my left 3bets small and the BB then shoves her 2.5k in the middle.
I obv snap, as does the guy to my left.
They show:
Guy -
Women -
LOL!!!!!!
Flop
- Hold?
?
Turn
- Hold?
River
- MEH!!!!
So i reload and manage to lose
v
aipf 2 hands later.
Run my last 2.5k up to 7k before getting it all in with
on
vs 3 villians!!!
They show
Haha
Sadly the
on the turn kills me and they all chop my chips when i dont boat up!!
Crazy,
I then decided to play some 1/1 cash and chipped up nicely from £100 to £150 before moving from the feeder table to the main table where all the money is!!!
I know a lot of the players on this table as they are regulars (albeit pretty poor overall) and i had position on the worst player there....
I managed not to go bust on
with
when he held
bust was down to £50 or so.
I do bust soon after with
on
vs
and decide ill go find my friend, who has span up £40 to £1k at roulette!!! sick
He then preceeds to run like Carl Pilgrim, turning another £40 into £1k. Then does the same again, only to lose a £900 like a fool!! However our Roulette run good doesnt end there, and we both manage to run £40 to £1k for a 3rd time
He left £2.5k up after blowing some more and i left up £400 after not being as crazy as him!! Good trip overall, just not for the poker!
The ITM Poker Leagues came to a close this week, and somehow i managed to win the final NLH league game to win the League outright. Add to this that i had locked up the Mixed Game league a few weeks ago i was crowned Double Champion!
Im pretty chuffed, however the reason i set these leagues up was not for my individual glory but more for others to win the prizes, so that kinda backfired. Nice to see i can pwn some $2/$3 games whereas the bigger games the business end seems to fall apart. This was confirmed when i made my 2nd FT of the APAT TV Tournament (ive only played it 2 times) but bust 10th when my AQ ran into AA sigh!!!!
Thanks for all players that supported the ITM Podcast games, there have been a few guest appearences (Jo Sharp/Carl Pilgrim spring to mind) as well as a few reg players (Steve "Jingle Jangle" Redfern)
As per previous post, i was planning to play the 888 Super Stack today at Star City but had to change plans as found out this week that the Tewksbury Pool League Singles Final has been arranged for Sunday Night. If i were to FT the 888 game then id have to miss it.
Any normal pool match i wouldnt mind, but the winner of this game gets to play at the National Finals and its quite a prestigious event to win. I won it in 2011, and almost retained it last year (sadly a fluked black in the decider bested me!) so eager to get my title back!!!
I played the Quarter and Semi Finals last Sunday i felt the best i have at a table for years. We played County Pool vs Northants in the day and i won Man Of the Match for my 3/4 performance against one of the best teams in the country and buzzed my boobies off all day.
I won my 1/4s, 6-1 with 4 break and clears and then won my Semi Final 7-1 with out missing a ball the whole session. Move Over Ronnie!!!
Today i am gonna venture to Walsall to play the £55, £4k gtd mtt they have on.....lets hope for a bink
In other news i managed to drop my iPhone in town this morning rushing back from a haircut to avoid traffic warden and smashed the screen to pieces!!!! BUGGER!!!
Would have rathered the parking ticket imo!!!
