Sheffield £300 Freeze tonight.

20 minutes in, I find 

And a flop of....

 

I bet 300, call, RAISE to 3,000 by Micky Jones. Eh? Hmm, not too many options here I fancy. I move my 5k all-in, he calls with  .

His outs increase on the turn when the Q pairs, but the pesky  rivers.

Brutal game this when the tide turns.

Do I have to pay 50p for this entry?

I also spent many years, shareing a double bed with my two brothers.That was a luxury though compred to when i was very little. Then my parents myself two oldest sisters older brother, younger brother.and two lodgers, shared a three bedroom house.

My two sisters had one bedroom, mum and dad and the two youngest boys (me and little bro) slept in the main bedroom, one lodger had the last bedroom. Whilst my older brother shared a room downstairs WITH THE OTHER LODGER.

Can you think what social services would have said,.

ANd the whole house was frozan.

But it all worked out well for you Brendan, & those tough times were great preparation for life, eh?

I don't think so Tony, not on your own thread. But just to be sure perhaps you should check with the management?

[TightEnd]

Approved, but he is behind with his 50p invoices.

We used to live, eat, and sleep in a one room, 20ft caravan. Mam, dad and 5 kids. What's more, modesty was preserved at all times.

I'm the youngest of 5 kids. I remember playing slow-motion musical bedrooms as we grew up. My first memories were being in a cot in my parents room. Then I moved in with my two remaining sisters when my eldest sister left home. When my next eldest sister got married, I was moved into a room with my brother. This was fine apart from the times he came home steaming drunk - I'll leave the details to your imagination (NO! Not that!). Finally my brother took up with a young lady and flew the nest. Oh bliss! Finally, at the ripe old age of 15, a bedroom of my own - akin to winning the lottery!

It's about a fiver in total now.

I had an e-Mail from one of my Online (Cardroom) Accounts tonight. They've just upgraded their software. My alias was "tikay", as it is on all sites.


".......your username has been updated. Your new username is: tikay1sb7871......"

Well that's handy, & easy enough to remember.

I think you should change your username on all sites to this to ensure you are in sync..

How did your mum and dad ever get the chance to show each other a bit of affection if you know what I mean..

Planned to play the £500 at Sheffield today, buit a sudden change of plan.

Willie Tann rung & did a job on me, & now I'm going to Leeds tonight, to have dinner with him, & maybe play the £200. Whether I'll get a seat in tonight's £200 is doubtful, I've heard it's full, & when I rung the Casino, they could not tell me. But I'm due there tomorrow, to play the Main Event, & on Sunday for Poker Week, so I may as well go up tonight, & swerve the Sheffield £500. I've been dithering about this dilemma for weeks, Sheffield to defend my title, or the Leeds freebie - or both, assuming I bust out in Sheffield. But what swayed it was Wille ringing, he's so persuasive, & me running very bad this week. So my budget spend for the week reduces by £300, £500 maybe if I can't get a seat tonight, and that's quite handy. Willie did me a big favour last week, doing the Sky Gig, & he leaned on me to have dinner with him tonight. I'm such a pushover. And a ditherer. But the decision is made now, hey-ho.

My sole "Live" Income this week has been £58! And that was a 10% "interest" in Maria, after she scored £580 in Notts on Tuesday. Cross %'s from Thewy & Maria, & Freebies from Gala. How to survive these days, eh?

Right, that's it, now I have to battle up the M1 on a Friday afternoon, jeez. I'm booked into the Queens Hotel tonight, on my own account, & Poker Week have booked me into The Ibis for Saturday night.

We have a new "Presenter" on Poker Week this week - Michelle Orpe, as Gouldy & Compo are both unavailable. Orpey is travelling up to Leeds tomorrow, & she wants to go out on the lash in Leeds. These Essex girls love their pop!

It;s been a horrendously busy time behind the scenes at blonde this week, 100's of e-Mails to & fro, & my head is spinning, & I don't feel so good, either. And in business terms, non-blonde, all sorts of deals & offers have been coming in, I don't really know which way to turn. Life is so good, but increasingly short. How to fit everything in, & should I keep running at 100mph, or slow down & slide into my dotage quietly? Maybe it won't be my decision. Maybe dotage has already arrived.

She's actually huge fun, & I'm happy to introduce you, & you can maybe take her on the lash, as I don't drink. Come & see me, & I'll sort it out with Michelle, she's alone in a strange town, & needs looking after. But she's working on Sunday, so not too late!
