came back for day 2 with a measley 6800, stole the blinds on my first round to tred water then on my next BB i picked up AT, one limp and my remaining 5.5k has to go in, original limper immediately goes all in and i think im drawing almost dead. To my delight he flips 55, flop is 6 7 8 giving me some extra outs but a 5 on the turn leaves me drawing very thin and a J on the river seals the deal, gg me. Never mind.

Gl to all blondes left in, particularly David Gent (geeforce1) any updates on his progress would be much appreciated

he would surely raise JJ so only hand im scared of is JT, and i am now way good enough to lay down a hand when im my own mind im only losing to one possible two card starting combination. Just to recall how many possible starting hands are there? I probably should know but dont, i know its a lot though, I really cant advocate a fold in this situation especially not in a tournament with increasing blinds etc.. Just recap the hand, you flop the top full house and fold to pressure on the turn when a realtively insignifacnt J falls??? If he has JT you have to lose youre chips and have double whiskey at the bar!

Well done flushy, best of luck mate, hope you win the EPT seat, :-)

Hi, had a nice time in brighton, and proved to myslef that i am not out of depth playin in these live tournaments and can successfully transfer my game from the internet to live poker. The £100 SnG i played with ruthless was 'entertaining' to say the least, I was dissapointed not to have the proper £100 rebuy as advertised but it was impossible with only 9 runners. There was some very suspect play going on, especially from one guy who had an agonising decision to fold hi suited connectors to a big preflop raise as he likes them so much, lol. I dodged a bullet when i moved in OTT with 88 and some guy folded showin QQ, (he says im a rock, lmao) Next hand he raises my bb from SB, i oush with AJ and he calls this time with AT (wtf? fold QQ call AT) anyway  double and am in a good position to make the last 3. I didnt travel all the way to brighton to coem 3rd in a £100 SnG so it was shit or bust time with the big stack. Raise again AJ, some 1 ott for about double my bet, easy call. I flop a J and nut flush draw, but somehow we chop with the top str8. Double up a SS next hand, then try and steal ruthless' blind with my suited connectors, whoops she had AQ and no help for me. Make final stand with A9 suited and the BB has no hesitation with his monster K T and he hits and im walkin. Was good fun, just wish i could have gone a bit better than 21st in the main. Am off to play my WPT seat i won next week oterwise i might have made the journey to walsall. Good luck to all blondes playing there and I should be making another appearance on the live UK scene sometime in march, :-)

I play tomorrow and am very excited. I have also been star spotting around the place and feel a bit out of place as the place is full of money. I wanted to play the live $300 tonight but it was full after about 10 min, nightmare. Instead i played online and took down the $12k on prima for $3.6k so soon got over the misery. Heading to bed know for a good nights sleep!

I am going, flying out tomorrow night to arrive on the afternoon of the 4th. I am on the 2nd starting flight, stars screen name, Paolo69, Gl to all blondes in this im pants at live poker so ill be doing pletny of scuba diving after day 1
