January Roundup and happenings....

January might aswell start with the poker first of all as i wasnt around very much and couldnt put many hours in due to various reasons i only managed to show a profit or around £250, as i say not playing very often was the only reason i can remember as i dont recall any bad beats.The reason behind the lack of hours was the busy schedule, im back at work full time now and not getting home til well after 7pm most nights, and setting off at 7am, aswell as working most saturdays, The only reason i

Well firstly i gotta say Happy New Year to everyone, hope you had a great one wherever you spent it.So 2008 was it a success or not, Well one thing is for sure it was a really hectic year for me, moving house, getting a new job, losing said new job and just other life stuff meant it was a busy time indeed, But on the poker front ive managed to keep upto date of where i am with profit and loss which is a major plus for me, usually i just sack it off and leave it but no kept upto date records of h

Evening All,To say its been a while is a slight understatement eh?Where to begin, well as most of you know (if anyone still reads due to the lack of updates), I moved back over the right side of the pennines and back home, we went looking for a new sofa for our new place and ended up with a job aswell, not a bad days work there.

It seems ages since i last posted on here so thought id better check in with anyone that reads this if there are any of you left.Been playing mainly PLO and having a good time of it been using a new site which seems like free money to me, people play so bad at PLO, had a couple of nice winning days this month 3 days running cashed for over £200+ a night profit, then had the smart idea of taking a shot at higher limits.Usually play 25c 50c, 50c $1 and $1 $2 but yesterday decided to give $2.50 $5

Changes....

Published on 2008-07-06 13:45:00

I dont know where to start really, Since my last post there have been a few changes to say the least.Finally stopped being a bum and got myself a job, funny thing is its more money for less hours than it was at my old place, always a bonus in my opinion!. Another change is still in the pipeline but hopefully will happen at the end of August now.But the major change is in the poker i havent fancied playing much NL Holdem instead i thought i would try some PLO instead and here are a few interestin

Sorry for the lack of updates all but just been mega busy at the mo, so much going on and so much about to happen i hope!First thing to happen was i finally left work, i had to do it before i went mad to be honest. There are some top lads and lasses there you know who you are, but then there are some who i wouldnt give the steam off my pi$$ to, i guess its much the same as anywhere but on the whole top bunch of peopleJust figures that things wouldnt run as smoothly as id hoped, was meant to star

Not really sure if anyone is still checking this out or if you have all deserted me after I said i was taking a break from the game. Ive decided to ease myself slowly back into poker after taking the breakWell abits happend since then, I left poker alone for two weeks before having a game on a new site to see how it was and the standard was poor to say the least, made a nice tidy profit only for me to stupidly lose it all the next night.Next up was the APAT event in Manchester, and again to be h

Yup thats right folks decided to call it a day, A few reasons really, but the main one is the time its taking up i could and should be doing other things with my life but not.That and i just dont have the correct BRM to play like i want to at the minute.So gonna take some time out couple of months or so and see where we go from there, get some cash together and come back bigger and better than before.Thats the plan anywaysCatch you all later!

Had to take the day off work again today due to this bug that i thought id shifted before i went to France but it appears to have come back after taking all the tablets to get rid of it. So it was another trip to the docs today to get some more tablets and see whats up with me.Got back and fired up two tables and now i normally tile the tables so i dont click on the wrong table when they flash up but for some reason i didnt and this was the result of it.http://www.pokerhand.org/?2548460When he c
