Hi, I haven't blogged much, have not really had much to shout about tbh...

I have been playing here and there, I played online for while, haven't done anything spectacular, I will be able to play a few more decent comps on mansion starting from Monday, as they are prepared to put my money up, so hopefully, I can stick in a load of volume with the sit and gos, and the odd decent mtt here and there, win one would be nice, and I will a bit happier :-)

I've played some live Cash here and there, haven't done too bad in recent weeks so that's a good thing, gives me some ammunition to take a few shots at the tourneys around, the ECOOP is not too far away, and I really hope I can do well in some of these events and win one, this time round they should make the watch/bracelet unisex!!!!!!

This weekend I am going to head up to Nottingham to ply the 300 deep stack, with a 100k gtd pp, this should be fun, the last couple of times, I haven't played well, so I'm looking to be playing ABC early on, and then when I found my zone rip it up, one time!!!!

One of my best friends had her son christened last weekend, so a big congratulations to her and her family :-) ........

The last few weeks have been testing times for myself as a poker player and as a person, and I would like to thank the people that have stood by me, and given me the support I needed, I am very grateful, and hopefully sometime very soon, I will make you proud and finally achieve the dream of what I have been craving for a long time.......... I have learned lately, that u have to take life with a pinch of salt, I am going to live for the moment and hopefully, I can be happy, that is all I want really, is to be happy, and I am grateful that there are some very kind people left in this world....

Anyways, I'm heading off now, I booked in to a hotel, so I could relax, and its getting late, so I better be off, as I have a long drive ahead,

Thanks for reading

Fed Up

Hi, I haven't been blogging as much, as I have not been playing much.
I won the 5k on pokerstars about a week ago, which was nice, I got $1500 for that win, I played really well, and I bossed the FT, it was a lovely feeling.
I played the Sunday warm up and the million on Sunday, feel soooo gutted about it, in the warm up I had 180k with 400 odd left, and went out soon after.... I was in BB with Q9 clubs, the button raised and I called for 5k more..... flop was King high with 2 clubs....I check called the flop, the turn was a King, I check called again and the river was a 9, I paid him off on the end, and shoved with ace high soon after...highly highly frustrating tbh...

I have played a few cash games live and would probably say I broke even on the whole...

I had a haircut yesterday and I did a bit of retail therapy, which really was refreshing, I love spending money, and I love making myself feel better about myself, even if that does sound vain, when I win something, I always like to buy something for myself, and not give it all back to poker.

Today I'm feeling pretty pissed off, everything is getting to me, I am not happy in myself and I feel let down by lots of people, the world is one pretty big joke to be honest, and I am fed up of living in a fake world.

Anyway, I'm off to try and earn some money, hopefully try and build up some £££ for a holiday, would be so very nice!

Thanks for reading :-)

Refreshed...........

Hi, guys hope you are all well and have been enjoying the lovely English weather!!

I have played a small amount of volume the last week or so, due to needing to take some time out, yesterday I went to Bournemouth beach, and it was most refreshing to walk forever and just by listening to the sea can relax you somewhat.


I have played live a few times, but no good, played well the other day, just got very unlucky, when I was in a All In situation :-(....

Have been playing on mansion poker, Ive played 6/8 hrs straight and still breaking even arghhhhhhh..... or losing, I played 3 mtts on there last night, one I didn't even bother re buying, the other 2, got knocked out with 77 vs A3 off suit, and my 55 no good for A9..... I don't want to give up on something I commit to doing, however, I'm not sure how long I can cope with it, it is highly pain full playing for them solid hours day in day out and no rewards in sight Zzz

I have been playing a bit on poker stars, my mtts have been "nearly nearly" and I am due a result ANYTIME SOON!!!!!! - I have been playing some low stakes cash, and the odd sit n go, I came 2ND in a 36$ 180 man the other night, and last night I came 3rd in a 36$ 180 man and I won a 45 man 27$ wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Covered all my mtts and still ended up, so was able to get a good sleep lolololol. I am working towards trying to get to the UKIPT in Nottingham, Hopefully I can make that trip.

I have been really sleepy, only woke up at 3:30 this afternoon (lazy lazy I know), might cook tonight (lol) and then get ready for some nice mtts tonight online

Thanks for reading :-)

Hi, hope all is well with you guys,

Have played a little here and there, not too much, Thursday I went for lunch with my friend and decided at the last minute to go to Brighton, seeing as it was a nice day, It was a nice chilled day out with a good ray of sunshine, the dinky doughnuts were the best!

While there, we decided to shoot down to big slick and play the £40 f/o which did not go too well, but all in all a nice day out, When we got home I decided to play the 100k on stars, played like a real rock, which tbh is very unusual for me loloolol.... Got down to the last 130 players 81 getting paid, I had about 6k, a guy shoves all in on the short stack and a guy on my left with 5 ppl behind him decides to re shove all in for 18k with KQ off suit, I have QQ, and to me the bet looks like AK, so I think if I can win this flip I will certainly cash and have a chance to go deep, so I call and the other guy has 10 10, flop JJx turn KING!!!!!!!!!!! gg wp ,, game over!!, was a bit gutted about that one, as I felt I had played very well and it just didn't work out at the crucial points zzzz I was still in the h/u mtt with 6 players left I was guaranteed 280$, at this time I was really tired and my eyes kept closing as I was playing so in the end I shoved on a K10 flop with 10 2 and the guy had KQ so I was out in 5th and went straight to sleep...

I played a couple of days on mansion lots of sngs, no mtts, just trying to put the volume in and the last few days have been roughly about even for me on that front...

I woke up today and haven't played at all, feel quite down about lots of things, My father passed away in December, but he died in Italy and its all very messed up, I don't have a clue when the funeral was or where he was laid to rest, and I feel bad as I just want to have some sort of closure on his death, I have tried many avenues and I will keep trying, I do find it difficult and at times very alone about the whole situation, maybe it has took me longer to finally grieve for him.

Tonight I will go round my good friend Emily's, she has invited me for a pasta, so will just chill out, might play a bit when I get back, see how I feel, I probably wont play much the next few days tho, as I think I need a little break from it all, I have played pretty bad recently and that more than any bad beat, upsets me the most...

Have a great weekend, and hopefully next week I can get back on track and get a real decent run in an online comp, would be nice :-)... Thanks for reading

4:am - min cashes everywhere !!

Hello..... hope you all had a great weekend!.... I played some online comps on Sunday night, went out of the Sunday warm up with KJ spades on a board of J77 all in on the flop and i lose to 88.... running straight lovely....

then the million..... I had J10 diamonds on the button....2 limper's so I make a raise..... flop comes
10 high,, one of the
limper bets out 4k, so I shove, he calls with QQ gg me..... the big slick 300 was a joke..... had set up hands all the way through,,,,, think my account might actually be bokked sikkkkkkk

so I went to sovereign after the million, kindly donated on the cash game,,,, not much fun there either :-(

So today i wake up at 7pm!!! sooooooooo lazy!!! lololol

I fire up some sit and gos on mansion, and obv get 2 outed in everything I play, I really feel like giving up on there, I have zero confidence, and I don't like the structures or the bingo players on ipoker.....

I load up on stars a few tourneys... I min cash in the 10$ rebuy - 75kgtd, I FT the 5k gtd, and come a disappointing 7th, when I re raise the button with 66 and he flats, the flop comes J10rag, so I shove he calls with A10...gg.... a few hands later i shove my last 50k in with 44 and get called by 55 ...irritating.....

I came about 50Th in the 100$ 50k gtd, I played one hand dreadful, when I hold 88 and it comes a 6 high flop I decide to call him down and check raise on the river when the ace had turned, he had AJ,,, then gave the same guy the remainder of my chips when I raise the cut off with 77, flop comes 10 high, all diamonds, he calls y 20k all in with QJ,,, the Jack of diamonds is obv the nuts when the queen of diamonds comes on the turn, gg,,, vwp.....

I played a little cash after and made a few dollars, so all in all, not a bad night, will probably be heading to the Big Slick, Tuesday night for there £30/£30 rollover tourney which has a good gtd of £2800 and with 12k chips and a 25 minute clock, hope to go deep in that

Anyways, I'm off to bed now, thanks for reading

At last - A Live Win - wiiiiiiiiiiiiiii :-))) 14:30

Hello...... sry I haven't updated for a few days, I have not played too much online tbh.....tried to stay off it for a bit.... ......

Yesterday I headed up to DTD........ It was all a bit last minute tbh, Anyway I head up to the club, it took me about 2hrs doing some serious weaving..... slowww Saturday drivers lolol...... I finally get there in the 3rd level!!.....take a seat, and play one hand before the break, then grab something to drink..... We return and I don't do too much,,,, however about half hour later I try and make a bit of a steal when the guys holding trip jacks with the ace kicker, not the greatest of moves zzzzzz......... Then I pick up A9, I raise after 2 limper's, both call, flop comes down J82, 2 clubs,, I go all in once they both check to me, I have about 3700 left,,, they both call and the river brings a King of clubs, and I stand up.... they both have rivered a flush, 97cc + Q10cc..... gg...wp...

I was really angry at myself, for getting involved too early on, specially as the trip is so long and stuff, so I head back to surrey, where I decide to go in the £60 f/o at Big Slick, I arrived at 9pm, not too bad, and they had a 70 runner field.......
Starting stack is 12k, and a generous 30 minute clock throughout, gave this tourney lots of play, and never really had to panic.....

I get off to a good start, and it gets better when I re raise on the button with 73 cc,,, the sb re raises me so I fold face up, and the very next hand I hold KK, and I get paid because of what I had shown from middle pair and a busted flush draw, a nice 70k pot :-)

The tiredness starts to set in, and by 3am I am on the FT with average chips, I call someones all in with King high, and get ultraaaaaaaa luckyyyyyyyyyyyy on the river when a Queen hits, and then I just have hands, in the end it was 6:30am, and we decide to chop the 2 spots with a generous tip to the dealers, however I had more chips, so I won the maximum points for the VEGAS FREEROLL!!! (one time??)


I really feel a tournament with this structure, and an earlier start, with a little higher buy in, would be really successful for the club, and I hope they look into it.

So today is Easter Sunday, I never made church in the end, but I said all my prayers, so hopefully I can live happy for a while :-).......... I am off out to try and grab a roast dinner, cant wait :P....

I will be playing online tonight, a few of the majors on stars, and I might even take a shot at the 300$ on ipoker on big slick....who knows.......

Thanks for reading and HAPPY EASTER :-))
