2008-01-01T22:15:00.000Z

2008 is here already.unlike last year im going to try and keep my blog more up to date.mainly playing on cash tables tonight,showed a profit of $62.21 after a bad start so pleased with that.played in paddys bulging sack 30k freeroll,out 117th when my all in a9 suited was called pre flop by k 10 os.flop gave me my 9 river brought 10,shame really as double up would have moved me into top 8.

played v roll sat and came 4th for £25.

2007-08-01T17:47:00.000Z

been a decent month for me,played a total of 211 games(no cash tables)for a profit of $2262.26.
playing mainly sit and go $50+5 on boss network lately as i feel this is more my strength than mtt's.hopefully a successfull august in store for me,but keep thinking i am due a negative month and since i have never had 1 in 18 months of poker unsure how it would affect me.time will tell.

usual high standard of play i expect from pl.two bad rivers in 3 hands put me last at first break,3 great hands in a row in 2nd hour,aa,kk,ak only collected blinds but it helped my cause,ended up chip leader on final table until my set got cracked by a flush on the turn when 4 players left,won next hand then 1 more out,last hand my set got rivered by a straight but pleased with 3rd in such a high quality field.a big thank you to paul ross for organising this event

a few more results

2007-03-11T13:00:00.000Z

nice cash in the early hours,only played about 11 hands right up to final table,bit dissapointed not to have won the heads up,was 3-1 behind in chips but managed to get the lead only for a rivered flush to put me behind again,still nice few hours work.

2nd in razz game which was very pleasing,really like razz and think im getting better at it the more i play.

managed my first win in paradise poker league so pleased with this one,5th overall in league for this month.

going on holiday next week so not too much chance for poker i think but will be back to the tables sometime in april raring to go.

hendon mob league

2007-01-02T23:45:00.000Z

managed 7th place tonight so 14pts,plus 5pts for knocking joe beevers out,$24.80 prize money plus entry fee returned and tee shirt.keeps me clear at the top of the league,but gaf still chasing me all the way(very creditable 5th)also ukcat45(3rd)and da matrix(1st)another great showing for punters lounge.unlucky to TRNMF(10th)just missing final table.

hendon mob league

2006-12-19T23:34:00.000Z

just finished hendon mob game,only 75 entrants tonight.needed to finish in top 20 for league points,just played tight first session,picked up a few pots here and there people seemed to be dropping out at regular intervals,made it to final table somehow,massive luck when my aq all in v ak,queen on flop and into top 3,soon down to final 3,other 2 playing fairly tight so picked up a lot of blinds with pot sized raises(had hands every time of course),1 more out and heads up,about 15000 chip defecit but managed to turn it round and win.$240 but more important 20 pts to put myself clear in the league.also the win got me BPP back again so great night for me.

BPP

2006-12-18T06:48:00.000Z

lost 1st place in the BPP rankings.last nights focus game the virgin v points freeroll,about 360 players i finished well down the field,GAF took good advantage getting his required points to go back to the top,be striving to get back there asap.

2nd hour take a couple of small pots but nothing much,down to 38th with 58 left in.next bb i get jj all fold to sb who raises to 1200(about half my stack)i decide to call flop gives me a set.all in,he calls and shows aa,my set holds up.back to 12th just under 5k.35 left i get jj again early position raise 2xbb all fold to bb he goes all in,he has done this numerous times defending his bb so i call,he shows kk(big oops)hits his set on turn and im down to 800 chips.next hand 88 and i push all in 2 callers,10 10 and k k.kk hold up and im out 31st.improvement on last week but still not near the money(top 18 paid).be trying again next week.
