Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[celtic]

i am 6644th on this list, thats quite good for me!!

[Bainn]

This one's for Flush, so bear with me. (And yes, he's reading this & going berserk with angst & jealousy).

You've seen mention of the Poker Pages Pro-Rank 2 Rankings. It''s for Tourneys over the last 2 years of $1,000 or less buy-in. The list is 13,968 strong, & worldwide.

Lawrence Gosney is 4th, Lalit Khujuria 8th, Greek Jack 10th, Ian Woodley 41st, Karl Mahrenholz 50th, Micky Wernick 69th, Paul King 74th, Paul Gourlay 77th, & good old Jim McShane 78th. And Thewy is 86th, I'm loving this. And I'm in 1st place. Yup, FIRST.

Now, there's two important things to consider here.

1) The Rankings must be wrong. I'm guessing that they have not taken into account all the Final Table Deals I do. I've never sent them a single result, or corrected one, as I really don't know how they work. But let's assume I'm down in xthousandth really.

2) In 7th place - that's SEVENTH PLACE - is one James Dempsey.

And he is going BALLISTIC. "If I'd not done a deal there, or you'd reported any one of your 759 deals, I'd be top, & you'be down with the numptys". I mean, he was on the phone howling......

And he's right, of course, I'm pretty sure of that.

But for the bragging rights over Choper Flush, I'll look the other way for a little longer. Hehe.....

Eat your heart out Sucker Flush.

Flushy rung, he's made the last 5 of the £300 at Plymouth - him, Alan Vinson, Jeff Kimber, John Hewston, & Paul Parker.

So he's chirping for England, "I'll be top of the Pro Rank 2 tonight" says his Chopness.

But then he saw my Diary Post from earlier today, & out went the dummy.

"You'll be sorry old man". I think not.....

Anyway, good luck all of them, & if Flushy gets the job done, I'll be delighted for him. A bit.

Would life be easier for you to leave GODs own country and move further south save on some of your travelling???

Blasphemy!

This is gonna be pretty boring (yes, yes, more than usual, smart-ass), but it's a Diary, so too bad.



Friday night, well, I'm thinking of poodling up to Huddersfield, as there is a Grand Prix Qualifier there that night. There are dozens of Qualifiers all over the UK, but my diary is a bit squished up right now, so I need to try & qualify at any opportunity. I think the Grosvenor Grand Prix is, without a shadow of doubt, the best value Tourney in the UK, bar none. £300,000 Guaranteed, 10,000 chips, & Pot Limit. I've qualified for it first or second time of asking every year, so fingers crossed. In each Qualifier (£100 rebuys) 15% of the field go through. So, assume, say, 60 runners, & we are looking at 9 qualifiers - effectively, just make the Final. "Just"......! (I bubbled in a Qualifier for the Grand Prix one year after Red-Dog called my All-In with A-4. A bloody 4!)

Just won my rebuys on Laddies 4k gtd..so will see you there Tony..providing the moving is all done..

[Harmony26]

Well done Maureen.  Hope you get there and hope all goes well for you with the move.

Thinking of you.

I really don't think you should be telling the whole world exactly when your house is going to be empty Tony.

Well since nobody actually knows where it is apart from the postman......

I think Tikay forgets where it is at times, just like his car..........

That's a good point Ian, thank you.

PS - Change of plan. I'll be at home every night for the next 7 years. Female burglers very welcome, take me, I'm all yours. No moustaches please.

As it happens, I'm a bit odd about my personal life. I don't open the door to anyone, (they do get uppity if they know I am in, though!, but there's no law that says I'm obliged to answer the door), and I never have visitors. Wendy, my ex-partner (3 years since) was the last visitor I had, & that's the way it'll always be, unless by some miracle I found a female companion. And the house is a tip now, sigh.
