Stuart, say to yourself "I will not play AJ, I will not play AJ"

Well I think I must have the worst stats possible on the DS on Stars.

Last 2 games got to HU on first table, first one I"m all-in with AA and get busted by 10 10, the next one I have KQ and the board comes KQx. I get all the chips in the middle and villan turns over the dreaded AJ. 10 on the river and its all over  :(

AJ gets me again at the APAT Scottish National. Not to damaging but bloody annoying.

Hit top 2 pair with A and J on board but with 3 diamonds and a straight draw made on the river I folded to a big reraise from David Blaine losing a few thousand early on in the event. - FML!

I did win with AJ on about the 3rd hand in when my AJ hit AAJ on the flop with another A on the river.
Quad Aces and I win about 800 chips - FML!

and finally, when playing a £10 SNG with Neil Dawson he raises and I fold Q7o. He turns over AJ and asks the dealer to run it anyway. Flop Q7x and another Q on the river. - FML!

Online cash                +$178.47

Live cash                   -£150.00

Live tournaments        +£1140.00

Just watched the 1973 WSOP Main Event on Pokertube over lunch.

Love the comment at the start - "Due to the extra large field the players had to be split into 2 groups"

and how come you could get odds of 50/1 on 1 player with 13 runners yet I"m 100/1 on Bluesquare to win the APAT Main Event which as 300 ?

Updates on the variuos random threads within this blog:

------------------------------------------------------------
PokerTracker is now completed stuffed up due to some unknown problem with PostgreSQL  ??? ???
therefore updates on win/loss for the year a bit of an issue (not that anyone actually cares other than me anyway :"()

------------------------------------------------------------

British Poker Masters (£550) Liverpool 19th/20th September

DTD Deepstack (£336) 3rd/4th October
