Bust first hand!

Found 88 and lost to AQ!

Sigh

Will work out the main. Might leave it tomorrow and play Friday. People reckon there’ll be more qualified and better/ busier.
What’s people’s thoughts?

Weekend warriors arriving Friday.  My guess is it will be way better.

Good morning punters!

I’ve heard the storm is crazy in the UK at the moment?

So:

Going to leave the main today. As discussed think tomorrow will be the better day to play. So quieter day today. Will play the €300 satty into the €2500 plo one day comp today. Will add to stake, with this and the extra 400 bullet will even out the 750 Dublin cup that probably can’t play now with the main tomorrow
Will work out at the end. Any objections let me know.

Had a few drinks with Firaldo last night, after playign some PLO cash. Had a decent sun but the games are pretty mad.

Wont be a late one tonight so can be ready for tomorrow. Also craving a Nando’s, so if the comp doesn’t go well today might wander into town. Vinny would be proud

tough luck yesterday verndog

good luck in the PLO satty

friday for the main sounds great, hopefully a load of drunken irish punters, which sounds amazing. my locals irish and when they are in the footy or rugby its always fun.

Someone say Nandos?

Have we won yet?

Bye.

Has been a good day today. As I’ve got slightly older (not saying I’m too old just yet at 31!) the idea of sitting in a poker room 13/14 hours a day 3/4 days in a row really doesn’t excite me!

Late Regged the sat, and bust 16th with 3 seats. So no real sweat.

Got Ah in Utg with 7 bigs three ways and was ahead in the turn but lost to a rivered gutshot.

Apart from that, no poker today. Did some work and came into Dublin for a Nando’s.

Currently perched in an Irish bar, enjoying a pint of Guiness listening to some live music. Seems ideal prep for the 3k tomorrow.
Super excited, nothing really matches playing a big comp! They have changed the structure slightly, so day 1 is 10x 1hr levels. 50k start and last level is 800/1600 so really is plenty of time

Also possible for an overlay. Has been talk of a lot of satty qualifiers/ weekend guys coming in for tomorrow but I think only had 50 runners or so for first 2 day ones. So need 200 tomorrow.

Will do updates as often as I can.

Anyway, might request the Rattlin’ bog!

Up early, well ish!

Did some work, been on a walk and eaten from a local salad/ deli. Did a really good Harissa chicken crunch bowl. Few of the other lads been saying it’s really good and it didn’t disappoint.
The hotel is in a really smart area but also means food isn’t the cheapest! I’m not tight(I don’t think) but £29 for a chicken burger seemed steep. In any case the walk and food is a good start to the day.

Starting in 15 mins, table 22 seat 7 which looks like a good seat in the middle of the room. Anyone else about come say hi! Will be interesting to see how many runners they get today.

50k start. 10x 1hr levels with last level 800/1600/1600 so a long day but a really good structure.

Will update when I can.

Gogogo
