Does villain ever try to get you to fold all you Ax, apart from AT/AK?
With a weak bet on the flop, and with you're apparent weak image, we assume he raises draws on the flop often?
Hate these spots when you try to induce, but then begin to doubt yourself. I edge more towards a call, but if you're confident about your river sizing tell, then I don't mind the fold.

I think the general rule I've tried to use is around 50bi. By bi, I mean 100 big blinds. Say, if I'm playing a £1-£2 game, I'll probably buy in for £400-£500, so this will be 2bis-2.5bis. I only really play live, so I expect the games to be much softer than online. Also, live players generally don't keep in mind pot sizes, so their bets will usually be smaller on turns/rivers, and you rarely see any over bets.
Another thing I generally disagree with is when people say, I need x number of buyins to take a shot. Well, unless you're planning to play this bigger game till you have £0, then why do you need x number of buyins? If you do keep playing this game till you have nothing, then you're not really taking a shot then are you? I'd say as long as the shot isn't detrimental to your usual game, then it's fine to take a shot with much less than people generally think.

£100 last longer Dubai? Playing Thursday
And sigh at not knowing Claypole was driving up with you and Vinny, I'm in a taxi home now otherwise we could have had some sick props going on the journey there.
Thought you were out with Cos tonight? Nealry changed my plans.... Yep, the plan was to meet up tonight with Cos. But he's decided to play 5-a side football instead. Fool. So on my way home so I can drive up tomorrow. Marky - Get thereee! Tighty - thanks for the info. Dubai - Boo for the no last longers.

Money really does depend on if you're including food, how often she goes out, what does she enjoy doing in her spare time, etc. You don't have to figure it all straight away, it's a learning curve for the parents too! She'll likely be going out more in the first couple weeks when freshers is on.
Annoying things I forgot was stuff like cotton buds and nail clippers. I know it sounds a bit silly, but it was stuff I had at home but had to buy again, which is annoying. Extension cable is another useful thing to take with you.
Yeah, people do steal a lot of food at Uni. Midnight kitchen raids happen everywhere.
I didn't have a part time job, and am sooo glad. Obviously a lot of students do however, and I'd recommend something on campus (if it is a campus Uni) simply because you still get to meet more students that way.
Another bit of advice is to start looking for second year accomodation around Christmas time. We did at my first Uni and we got literally the best flats ever. People don't look till summer time and you're left with the worst options.

I'd say dark grey and blue suits are the most conventional colours for suits, well they are in finance anyways. Black suits are for black tie events or funerals, I wouldn't get a black one.
Good luck.
