Had a good week this week on the poker front, played 2 live games ft bubbled at local G, not a massive achievement only 24 runners I think no cash received.
Played the usual game at Riley"s on Thursday won that for £55, although there was a few dodgy happenings with my dealing, dealt myself 3 cards twice
both times, didn"t realise on both occasions until showdown, the said card had no bearing on the hands other than it should of been the burn card, but as it had got to showdown the hands played out.
I am not clever enough to cheat, but it was all good fun and next week I am not dealing.
As I said in the above posts been playing a few 2k guaranteed on stars 2 rebuys, 1 add on, I usually reg just before the add on period and treat it as a $ 20 deep stack, average chip stacks are usually around 9/10k.
I have played 4 or 5 of these this week with a couple of min cashes, going out to the usual race when set to at least min cash, I have actually changed my mindset regarding the min cash and tried to be more aggro around the bubble stage to try and build a stack.
Last nights effort was a case in point I managed to double up twice around the bubble stage and got a decent stack, to cut a long story short was chip leader until the final 4 then lost a race for 2.5m chips 99 v KQ which would of give me 60% of chips in play, ended up pushing with A rag 15 bigs got called by a bigger A and lost so finished 4th for $998.
Also played a couple of $15 sngs which I won for $120 so just over $1k last night happy days.
Went to see Boro win as well yesterday, so all in all a good Saturday.
Christmas tree is done, cards are written off to my mams for tea, will play last league game tonight, plus the stars 2k see if lightning can strike twice, be lucky.
