Hi all,
Well that was fun !!!, First of all may i apologise for my some of my loud,brash,pisstaking,blind stealing antic's , i only wish i could blame it on the drink, however i'm afraid i cant as i'm always like this......and it's my cross to bare and i have to live with it. So if i've offended anybody over the weekend or i was a little in your face at the table i couldn't care f*cking less.
One of the first fellows i met on saturday was Inthebelly......what a truely amazing chap , this guy must have fell out of the tree a few times at a very early age...no no no, that's not enough ......on the way to the hospital the ambulance must have crashed into a brick wall as well !!!!
. When i grow up i want to be just like him. I think i'll be drinking with him at the next bash, two peas in a pod spring to mind.( i'm suprised i have any friend's at all).
So in the main event i'm sat with Scottish Dave, Robert HM, and Madasahatstand(the best looking woman both sides of the Glasgow bridge i'm sure) upstairs and i'm behaving myself for the first hour or so untill the drink starts to work it's magic (this only takes a few as i dont drink that often) . I manage to knock over two drinks and ask a waitress called Ginger if she could get us some drinks.
Then after about 30 mins off being busy shall we say, i raise UTG and a chap comes over the top All in with a real hand and i'm priced in to call, he flips over
and i flip over
everybody starts laughing and i somehow lose.
However it gets worse as i raise the 5th time on the trot and a Mrs Madasahat seems to think that i'm picking on her ( i wasn't picking on you , just everybody ) well now that she's picked up a hand , Mrs Mad has told me she's had enough and calls......now i cant remember what bag of spanners that i raised with , but as the hand play's out , i'm well behind and want out ,but naturally with all in the chips in the middle. I use the old chestnut , If you fold i'll show you my hand tactic to no avail, as this tuff cookie was going nowhere !!. So i use my foolproof backup plan and use my sexual magnatasism, I stand up and say " If you fold i'll show you my cards and i'll let you have sex with me"..............she folded i think.
In the £40 Sunday comp i'm at a really good table with a lovely friendly feel to it with some good players, Tightend,Ginger,Scottish Dave,Teacake,
Newmanseye,and the one and only TK.
Now after about 10 mins Tightend starts to show me his hands from the muck after i've folded my hand , he's showing the likes of AJ,AT,KQ,KJs,JT and the likes , usually after someone has brought it in for a raise and a following call in early-mid postion, then asking "would you have folded that John?". I would then give him my answer and he'd nod his head in acknowledgement, this happened about 4 times before i thought something was up, as his constant run off the mill questions i was finding increasingly interfering with my table watching.
I asked him "why are you asking me questions that you already know the answers to" then not even waiting for a reply , the penny dropped !!!!, you're checking my game out.......he then winked and we both smiled.
.
Now that's a classy player, and i thank Mr tightend for adding another weapon to my arsenal. (which i've now shared with you lot......Doh )
