He seems to be playing ever so slightly above his bankroll.

why?

Not really worrying but just expecting the well i've lost it all and borrowed more and lost all that entry.

He's open about not being arsed to grind in anyway whatsoever, he wants the rush of doing his rent in one hand when thats all he has.

He's welsh...... I have no sympathy. 

But I respect the size of his gonads. Stupidity or gutsy? You decide.

He seems to have gone from really low limits to higher limits very quickly. If you look at some of his previous blog entries

We should do a sweepstake on which day of this month he will go busto.
I'll take September 16th.

Just read the latest entry and I agree, it's a great read, only because you can sense his demise is upcoming.

But, he's been given the advice and it's his decision to whether he takes it on board.

I'm afraid, as a self-confessed gambler who plays out of his bankroll, he is always going to go bust.

I agree snoops, i think it's a read that people should use as a cautionary tale.

But for every 99 of these guys that goes bust, one will build up a seven figure bankroll, play at the highest limits, get known as a young hotshot player and inspire legions of others to fall into the trap that the 99 fell into.

And then the cycle continues.

Did anyone ever see a TV show on Pokerzone.  It was about Student poker players, there was one player who had dropped out of Uni and was playing full time. On the show, everyone who was interviewed( Including himself ) claimed he was the next big thing in poker.  Anyone know who I am talking about, I can't remember the guys name.  Maybe something to do with University Poker League.  For all I know, he may even be a blondite  Cheesy
