I must know all 3 of you by sight. Likelihood is i'll win again this week so if yr still around at 3am for the start of the final..come pay homage and introduce yourself
That's tough talk right there! Last time I played this comp I chopped it with Les Fenton back in November. Game On! Will come any say Hi though! Super fun sweat then! Probably jump on the 6:15pm fast train to Luton so I'll be in the G for about 6:45. Catch you guys then. No chops allowed, no checkraising and bet the river because I never have it. Do you fancy meeting up at starbucks at 6?

Hello mate, I should be at Luton tonight playing ^^^ said comp, are u going? Gonna be meeting a mate for dinner about 6 at the back of the poker room, your more than welcome to join us.
About a 75% chance of it, yes. More in for the cash games on a Friday but I will more than likely jump into the comp. Usually get there around 6:45pm-7pm on a Friday night so I will probably catch you later on. Ditto, maybe you can finally sort out my Limo to DTD this time..... :-)

I have to say, when you mentioned that you get hassled at luton station on the graveyard train, I was thinkingi never get hassled there. Fast forward to this evening and not only has someone asked me for a fiver but also can can they have lift home from Bedford station! Mad men
Between about midnight-2am there are always a few characters hanging about the station. The majority are looking to get back to London though so they're on the opposite platform to me usually. There's almost zero staff presence around the place from 11pm-4am so it always feels a bit dodgy. I usually plan my trip back from the G or Genting so I'm not waiting more than 10 minutes for the next train. After 4am though it's usually fine with all the people making early morning airport runs. Sorry I missed your PM mate, how did the G go last night? I got to the station at half 12.... Only waited for six minutes and I was grabbed twice! I chipped up nicely to about 75K at the 400/800 No ante, and then went card dead for about an hour, so got board.... then creative then lost my chips. Because of the structure we had 22 runners left for about 2 hours........ only top 4 paid up top £600 quid.

Long, long day at work today.... But despite that I'm in a really good mood! I guess its a relief its all over.
We have just moved back to our head office site, and this morning was the go "live" date. now this usually means one of 2 things will happen. 1. IT and logistics would have moved across the desks, files and computers across and set up and tested the computers have work in an orderly fashion ready for the users to carry on work as normal or 2) Well the obvious option number 2 is none of the above is carried out and i have staff believing its some type of day off and asking can they go home, instead of the more useful question of "What can i do to help?"......
Anyway i think that's enough moaning for one day, looking forward to watching Chelsea beat liverpool. Puntered a score on Chelsea to win 4-0 with Costa to score twice @ 66-1. good for 1320 return.... Any footie or Chelsea fans on Blonde?

Not long been home from work, and already having withdrawal symptoms from not being able to fire up few cash tables along with the normal evening MTT. I guess this new "live only" Schedule is going to take some time to get used to. Have been sitting around replaying hands in my head from a few days ago. One in particular was my exit hand from the big 55 on Friday night when i managed to flop top set on an all club board and run into two flopped flushes, with a 4th club on the river for good measure, is it just me or are these spots just so common online? I know its the old cliche of your playing so many more hands its just higher variance, but that's not how it was felt the last 18 months or so......... I want to try and fill some of my time with training videos, in particular Razz, Padoki and 2-7 as these are my worst games in DC. I guess the old google.com will be in use shortly.
Looking forward to playing again at the Vic as its been a while, and I like the changes they have made to the poker room last year or so. Dealers are competent and the massage ladies are always on hand to help work out a blood clot or too. I also find the room more than a brunch of seniors grinding out 1/2, 2/5, ect for a living, with plenty of value to be found, if you look in the right places, at the right time of day. I normally find sessions between 10pm-3am to be the most juicy n the 1/2 games for anyone who is interested.

I was wondering why I hadn't seen you at the g for a while now. Glad you've got yourself back reinstated👍. How did the Saturday lunch time comp go?
Finished in 8th from about 40 total entries. Good fun though, can't moan even though I don't get to add another Luton mincash to my poker CV. Probably head down to the Monthly next week, you playing? Most likely, I'm looking to play at the Vic next week for the GUKPT, But if that doesn't go to plan will be up to play the day 1B. Are you planning on playing at the Vic next week?
