Thanx guys, nice to see you all again and see you in London in August as I wont be in Blackpool :(
  I made one bad error when 3-handed and it just shows how little margin of error you can sometimes have at the end of a long day.
  I had 240,000 0f the 440,000 in play with blinds at 5k/10k. I raised in the BB to 30k with 4-4 and the small-stack pushed all-in for approx 85k.
  I felt I would have better spots and cards to call later on and so I folded, just before we went to a break.
  On coming back. I was on the button and decided to make a steal, yet inexplicably made it only 25k to play, which the guy in 2nd place called for 15k more.
  I missed the flop, but made a continuation bet of 30k.....and he raised to 75k, forcing me to fold.
  It was then......and ONLY then......that I realised I was now down to 165k and was no longer chip-leader.....a TOTAL loss of focus at the wrong time.
  I will talk more in my blog entry........which will be written in a certain style due to my opponent (You will have to read it to see what I am on about !)
 
   BOING BOING !!
