I study business too.
But there is not really a gap for marketing within poker, perhaps gaps in the casino industry, yes, but not within poker. Poker within casino's is really small & where it isn't (DTD) they already have people who do your job within a different title. I am not sure there are any gaps within poker for marketing really, feel as if everything is done within itself.

Ah, understandable.
I feel like even though it makes up a small proportion of revenue for casinos, I believe many casinos are missing prime marketing opportunities in regards to poker. On many occasions I'm thinking "why aren't they doing this, why aren't they doing that" which is why I suppose I want to get into the industry, I want to make a difference

I think you could make a difference for sure, but it won't be solely for Poker.
The only way you could do something like that is become a CRM, which is a big ask, considering you need management skills and basic knowledge of gambling/poker to get that job.
Are you definitely just looking towards poker?

At the moment I would say so yeah, obviously CRM is a huge ask, but wouldn't necessarily rule it out.
Definitely want to go down the casino route at the least.

tyty Nicky Flan <3
almost listed you as my best friend in poker... no homo
I don't really have a specific 'group' of players that I hang around with/chat strategy with etc, which is a little annoying since obv I'm always interested in different spots, what I did right/wrong etc.
Suppose I talk to Liam and Tommy Bingham on the reg, but only really at tournaments
Anyway other news....
Going to Genting this evening for the £50 £3k GTD later. Played it once before and really enjoyed, made no money but got to know some of the Newcastle poker community, which is always nice.

Won't be playing much live myself but you should come down to Teesside if you have a car, next £150f/o maybe.

Didn't know anything about this 150, may have to research it.
I finish end of may, graduate August maybe? Not quite sure, around this time though

First tourney of the blog - misclicks
First tourney of the blog then was tonight's £50 £3k GTD at Genting, Newcastle. Pretty pissed off with myself in this tournament.
8k starting, got a strong early start by getting big hands, as well as dem aces vs KK. AK found a fold, pretty tilting but we win nonetheless.
I lost bits and bobs here, raising to call off vs certain stacks, then bigger stacks just stated getting it in vs me.
Bust hand. Playing 10k at 300/600/50, clicking it got through often enough for me to opt to open to 1250 with
. Sb finds a call.
Flop -
He checks, I check behind. In the ideal world my plan is to bet/raise turns.
Turn -
He bets what I think is to 2,050. I feel like I get him to fold draws/6's/7's enough to warrant a jam, as well as being able to find a win if we do get called off.
He snaps, shows
Confused I then realised I got the 25 chips mixed up with the 5k's. He had in fact hammered the pot for 7k rather than 2,025, obv zero FE, King high holds gg.
In general play was fairly decent, although at times felt like I may have been playing a little too laggy.
Lessons for next live tourney:
gain a solid understanding of chip denominations;
Play tighter with <20 bigs

I think the best play is to just cbet flop. So much more awkward checking back and trying to bluff later. I think u have less fold equity doing some weird turn raise, villain more likely to think ur fos. I think u can happily cbet flop and shove a decent amount of turns when called.
