sorry for the delay in my update, the cash game lasted 3 hands simon, it only cost me a quid all in all so not a bad loss.
ive got to describe my last few results, last friday was my friends home game and eventually getting to three way i nearly folded a flush to a all in but i eventually called (thanks antthecat, anthony really owes you one) and i took so many chips from that pot it was not too long before i took it down for a profit of £60 (seven runners £10 with one rebuy before the break, 10k starting stack, donk ask why 10k is a rebuy stack but there we go) over a four hour period, hourly rate £15, not bad.
Saturday afternoon i played up the palace, £3 rebuy, had a few rebuys(8 in all plus a add-on) for a investment of £30, i was second chip leader on the table and things were good until a new player comes in, just keeps open shoving and getting no resistance, im on the bb with a9 suited, lag shoves on the button, i snap call reasoning that my a9 is ahead, he tables kings, ffs, he shoved ten times in a row and when i call he has the bloody goods, by my moaning you can tell a ace did not come and i did not make a flush and im left with 2bb"s left, that lasted the next hand (his a9 beat my 73off, where is the justice hey!!!!) and im off home, as i felt good still i decided to play the tourny up norwich poker club as it was a £20 semi freezeout (£20 buy in, 5k starting stack, optional rebuy or add-on for £10 and then another rebuy or add-on for £5), off to a good start when i double up my starting stack but just before the first break i was back down to 5k when i shoved against a raise when i had a straight and a flush draw and he called, i missed but after five minutes the break came so i had my add ons, after the break i played quite passive but towards the final table bubble i mad a hero call when i had top pair and i faced a shove on the flop which was for all my stack, he shoved on a draw, i do not know how he missed but my pair held up and then final table, from eight got whittled to four but i only had 3 hands, i decided to make a shove with q9 suited on the sb as the blinds were 3k/6k with a ante of 500 and my stack was whittled down from 100k to 50k at this point, the bb snapped called when he looked at an ace then squeezed out a 9, dominated, i just wanted to be live, why did he have a 9, anything else as a 9 hit the flop but obviously his ace kicker was beating my queen kicker, i was out in 4th and got paid £67.
sunday i played the rileys £10 freezeout and from 15 runners i was out in 6th, lost a lot of chips when i called a aggressive shover(monkeyman) with j9, he had aces, aces held up, i read him for two high cards or ace-x suited but there we go, few hands later the button raised 3bb, i called on the sb with ac
, bb folded, flop qc
, i shove and the button goes in the tank, two minutes pass and he calls, he shows kc jd, turn was a blank and the river was jh, im out, i was bored so i put my change in a fruit machine(problem is under control by the way) and won £30, as i said up top i fancied a bit of a cash game with this money so i wander to npc and sit at the cash table, that lasted a couple of minutes.
monday night i fancied a game so i made my way to rileys, there was 25 runners and it was a £5 double chance (£10 max stake) and i played like a mad man, callin an all in with pockets deuces, deuces held up against kj. i made a final table after nearly getting in trouble by a novice(she played nearly every hand) and after a hour i settle for a chop when i got heads up and i make £80,
for my las few days i have a profit of £130, not bad for a part timer, i hope it keeps going
