Tuesday

I play goot last night, I made it deep in another 180-man SNG on stars, busting in 30th, yet again my KQ was beaten by KJ when a J turned a Kxx flop into a complete nightmare for me. Still we continue to play the odds and know it is only a matter of time until several successive good decisions go my way. I also made it deep in the £3k GTD on Betfair, I busted in 29th, which didn't bring much cash but it was nice to beat a field of 370, especially after only calling two hands in the first hour and not winning either of them ! I had T900 with blinds at 100/200 when the second hour started. Just goes to show patience is the name of the game. I was getting tired after all that but played and finished second in a quick £5 SNG on betfair.

So, I'm playing good poker now, but of course I'm totally gutted that i live thousands of miles away from the Mecca of Poker and therefore will miss what sounds like the biggest gathering of like minded poker players ever conceived, the World Poker Blogger Tour, in Las Vegas. I was in Vegas earlier this year and loved it, and if it didn't cost £700 to cross the atlantic at the moment I'd be trying to get there again. Still, good things come to those who wait, and soon enough I'll be back there and the Twister & I can spend another 5 hours straight playing Sega Jockey Master in the Luxor !

Seriously, if you ever go upstairs in the Luxor, stick 5 bucks in that machine and you wont be able to walk away !
