Its been a while, so much to update....

Firstly, thanks to Virgin for hosting a WSOP Bloggers freeroll. Its a pity I disgraced myself in 65th out of 70 odds. I tried to bully someone on BB with 44 and got reraised all in. Stupid call by me but thats poker.

Next came my drunken STT win in my local pub. It was only £25 but it paid for my night but didn't help my liver.

Again Virginpoker came up trumps with their Punterslounge WSOP league. A credible 4th spot earned me $50, £67 worth of V points and more importantly a few points on the leaderboard.

My live Friday game saw me finish 7th out of 30. No prize but as usual I got rivered to a bad beat. Good nights entertainment for a fiver.

Lastly, yesterday, I played in a £10 rebuy charity event in my local. Again, I reached the top table finishing 9th out of 75. 9th - 4th all received £50 so I went with the attitude to win the tournament. Looking down I was dealt AK sooted. I hit all in hoping to kill the hand but instead I was called with QQ, KK and AA!

Who says the games fixed!

Didn't fancy playing much today after confirmation of a date and location for the betfair city am game. I gave the betonbet $100 freeroll a go for a first time, mainly because there were no other games playing at 6.00pm. Through a field of 250, suprisingly I didn't see any bad beats for myself. I got aggressive near the bubble and it paid off. I finished a very respectable 4th place and coffered a massive $8 for my troubles.

I spent most of my time between hands trying to get cheap flights to London. Cheapest I could find where £65 but they rose massively in price if I wanted decent times. I'm now debating whether to rough it on the streets of London to catch an early flight or bite the bullet and fork out for a room which I'll probably not use.

Oh well.....

After a nice bonus yesterday thanks to Valiant, and a hard days grafting up and down ladders, I played a few games on cdpoker. One 2nd, 3rd and an unplace has me up around £5. Having an early night after being runner runner rivered on the Stan James Pokerzone freeroll - whats a man to do? All in with a straight on the river, one caller has 2 pair and fills a flush when the 4th diamond hits on the river. Don't think I gave him the odds to call so I'm not too dissapointed.

One final game $1 STT for the evening on bluesquare. I started bluesquare with nothing, played the bankroll booster until I won a dollar, then moved to the STT's and built my bankroll from there. I've had my cash as high as $85 but I've been on serious tilt lately. Down to $38 after moving too high ($5), too quick. Back down to $1 games and I'll stick with these until I reach $50. As per usual, the river kills me. Early stages, in the tournie, I get QQ, I raise 4x, get called by two including the table chip leader bully (and a bit of a maniac)lazycat. Flop comes 5710, he hits all in and procedes to show 108o. Of course the 8 rivers me and its good night.
