I nearly got banned from a poker site for doing that. It was at a 1c cash game and I raised each time it got back to me, a buddy was doing the same and I folded when it got down to $4.98 for the crack. Lame.

[Girgy85]

Good post! More needed ASAP!

[HOLDorFOLD]

Sigh, feeling hungry, read this post and now feeling even hungrier - so sad that I even googled this buddies place to have a gander ...

Tuesday

So after a relatively heavy Monday night, and only going to bed at 9am because of the standoff, there was no way I was going to be up early!

I was woke at sometime, which I don't know, by Knave puking! I know it was daylight, but I didn't bother looking at my watch, instead I just closed my eyes and put my head down again! I woke sometime around 6 I believe and saw Jones up and on his laptop on his bed still. I checked my phone and had a number of texts from Trigg wanting to play some pool somewhere, and Jones said that Trigg had also been trying to contact him.

We didn't end up going playing pool, we just got ready and went down the casino around 7 for the nights tournament. Trigg had started a book already now and we decided to lump in between us, asking special bets etc etc... Was one comedy moment where Trigg priced up a Last longer match bet between Knave and TommyC. Was so funny that when he wrote down Knave Evs, TommyC 4/6 our faces absolutely lit up. I asked him the max bet on that and he said £75, so i insta took £75 out my pocket and put it on leknave... Leknave moved into 10/11, so Brent had £75... Then Kellster went up and had £75 also at 4/6 (mug missed the price). Then Trigg pushes TommyC out to 6/4 so I backed TommyC for £60 to guarantee me a £15 profit, which was pretty hilarious! WP Trigg bookmakers!

Then Kellster came and shouted his mouth : "If anyone wants a match bet with me, i'll give them anything up to £500 @ evens". He wasn't expecting anyone to take him up on it, but I turned around and said i'll take £100 on Knave vs Him. And he thought and accepted, then Middy got involved for £200, so we had £300 on between us, it was pretty funny. So before the comp has started i've got about £265 worth of bets on, although I am guaranteed £150 back thanks to the Knave/TommyC bet.

I am sat at a table which included Kellster, and also the guy from the previous night with KT v my AK. This comp was also a non starter and I was out before the break despite it being a double chance! First my nut flush is no good against quads for my first lot. And my second lot I got in with 99 into the guy from Monday with TT. Who nitrolled me for good measure FWIW. The funniest thing was that Flushy had backed me to last longer than him, and when Flushy also busted before the break he couldn't believe that he wasn't going to collect on that bet!!

I went and watched Nicky, who was Heads up in the £200 by this point against Matt Perrins. He got a pretty toasty deal out of it when 5 handed and they had now made it HU playing for £1500 + the CofC seat. Sadly Nicky ran pretty bad, and lost 3 races when HU to finish 2nd. But obviously he was still happy with the  £5k he scooped. Me, Flushy, Nicky, and Nicky's friend whose name I have forgotten right now - but we shall call him Ned - went to the Pitcher and Piano for some cocktails.

I've never really had any proper cocktails, i'm quite simple that when I drink, it's Vodka Redbulls. So when Nicky ordered me in a Iced Tea thing I was a bit hesitant. Needless to say I didnt like it and would definitely not recommend it! It tasted like mould, and I don't know why on earth he likes it! Flushy and Nicky then introduced this drinking game.. The rules were.. When you finish your drink you MUST, tap someone on the shoulder with your glass once, Twirl it round in the air for two full circles, and then land it on the table smoothly, as though it was a helicopter... Slide it along the table, again without making banging sound and then stop, make two taps with the glass and let go. Failure to do any of the above would result in downing another of the drink you just finished! First to do it wrong was Trigg, when he finished with a treble tap, so he had to down his.

Flushy's girlfriend Lucy joined us at the bar, and when we finished a few drinks we went back a tad tipsy. We got back and ordered more drinks in and had a little table between us all. The night went on and we introduced the game to everyone else who joined us so nobody had any excuses. By this time most of us were out, TommyC, Middy, we were all drinking. Then late on a funny thing happened... I poured some wine for somebody and it accidently spilled a bit - this is punishable by the rules and I had to down a vodkaredbull. So I pick it up, gulp it down, and put it on the table. Nooooo! I didnt tap off and helicopter it. Obviously punishable once more by the same forfeit, these rules suck! The bar is now shut though, and I cant get another VKRB, so they pass me some wine, which I cannot drink at all, as it is disgusting imo! Then Ned (remember him from above) shouts, quite drunk, that if I paid him £3 he would do the forfeit. So obv I shipped him £3 and he downed the glass of wine, but forgot to tap like I also did! Hilarious, he didn't want to do another, but rules are rules. So we look around the table and all thats left is half a VKRB, and a bottle of beer. So he has the choice, he takes the beer and puts downs it, spilling a bit in process, but is let off! We all have a laugh and think nothing of it until moments later Jeff Kimber comes over looking for his beer!..

Apparently he had left Nicky to look after his beer and was fuming that it wasn't there when he came back! It was quite funny, and went on for a while with Nicky promising to buy him a beer but not realising the bar was closed! Eventually the days play ended and we all went round to buddies once more! I had the Ultimate, which I still need to upload onto my computer, whilst everyone else got there food too. We had a 5 way flip this time, with Flushy flipping two coins for himself as Lucy was there too. Obviously I lose once more and have paid a combined £140 in two days for two breakfasts! Marvellous!

It's then time to head home so we wander back to the hotel, with Jones making the second day again it meant me and Middy scooped on our bet with Kellster which was nice Brent also made the 2nd day which was unbelievable for some! Got back to the hotel, turned on a movie and fell asleep pretty soon after.

[LeKnave]

I was woke at sometime, which I don't know, by Knave puking!

haha juuuune that was on the thurs morning yo. after the srsly heavy wed's night....i think?

[AlexMartin]

hahaha. esp lol'd hard at jeff kimbers beer when trigg told me, can just imagine him peeved off. also how did trigg make good money with such retarded lines? good writeup rooks.

EDIT: please edit me out of wed/thurs.

pleeeeeeeaaaasssse.

[ChipRich]

LOLL, i think everyone else lost in bets to him.

In the £200 i had Nicky at 13/2 to last longer when he had 5k, then in £300 had Brent to final at like 7's

[  ] shrewd bets
[X] coups landed
[  ] had more than a £10er on

Wednesday

I woke up around 4 I guess and Jones had already left by then for the 2nd day of the £300 which started at 2pm. I had a messed about online a bit before getting showered and dressed to go out. I assumed we were going out as there was no poker to be played that night apart from the £100r PLO.

I got to the casino bar about 6ish only to find Jones standing at the bar less than impressed and Brent sitting on the final! That was weird for one moment, I thought that roles should be reversed, but nevertheless it was true, and I asked Jones what happened. Apparently he got one outered for huuuuugggeeee dimes, which is pretty ugly by anyones standards. Brent was pretty comfortable on the final until just before the break when he ran AQblue into AKblack, he couldn't get there and he was shortest of 4 at the break. The rest of us (Me, Flushy, Knave, Middy, TommyC, Trigg and Nicky) were all starting on the drink now and having a laugh. The only one who hadn't shown his face was ChipRich.

After the break Brent ran his AJ on the bb into the button's AA. Not sure if the button had looked at both or not but he flipped his cards over with just one Ace showing and slid it to reveal the other one, it was a bit slowrollish but he claimed he didn't know what the other was. Either way it was gg Brent and 4th place just means you give all your money to Flushy to take off makeup - FYL. We was also around this time graced with the presence of Moorman, we just couldn't believe it! He only wanted a quiet one because he was leaving at 8am the next morning for Oz but we soon talked him out of that...

We all hit the drink now and Flushy played the £100PLO. We decided it was time to go to the Pitcher & Piano about half hour into it. We go round and get our cocktails and order in plenty of shots. Everyone is shown the drinking game, and can manage it, except for Moorman! He has had to down 2 mixers within the first half hour and by the time Flushy comes over with Dubai at the break he is swaying about plenty! Also with those two were dpomml, who was a nice guy. Dubai immediately bought about 20 Jagermeisters, 20 shots and 20 DVKRB. He then comes over and Flushy tells us he is in for £1500 whilst Dubai for £3k and they both have the minimum amount of chips!

It was absolutely Baller though when Dubai decides he cba going back to the tourn at the end of the break and just sits and drinks while the other two head back to the comp! Flushy arrives back about an hour later and that is when Dubai thinks he will go and play! There are some girls in the bar and some of the lads try to pull, only to fail. In a way anyway. Moorman is absolutely wrecked when closing time of 1am comes and so are the rest of us tbh! Jones has broken a couple of shot glasses - which is not a good idea, because that only results in the punishment that you must drink another shot!

We leave the bar and go to head to the casino, but somewhere between the 30 second walk some of us get split up. Me, Flushy, Trigg end up in casino, but the others end up somewhere else! We walk into the casino just as a big roar is going up! It's Dubai, and it's 32red. The guy had just won about £8k on the roulette and was well happy! Flushy and Martin Green cashed it in for him and we decided to go back to Flushy's to drop off Dubai's suitcase, then off to Oceana's. There was me, Flushy, Dubai, Trigg, Nicky, Martin Green, Pomml, and Kev Allen walking through Brighton as loud as anything!

We got back to Flushy's posh gaff and obviously the noise continued, walking through the courtyard waking probably every neighbour up on the way through! Dubai dumps his bags and we head down to Oceana's. It was pretty packed and the place is huge! Dubai strolls up to the bar, and as he cant get to the front, and has to stand behind these girls, he gives them a £100 so he can get at the bar! So com! He then goes and orders about 50 of everything, and not only that but he also buys some champagne. But, instead of drink it like most people would, he tips the barman £40 so he lets another barman pop the cork and spray it all over him! The cork pops into the poor barmans face and he gets soaked with champage, with us lot on the rail pissing ourselves and just shouting "OI OI OI OI OI ! OI OI OI OI !"

We was in here for a couple hours, and that included some comedy moves from Trigg. He tried doing a funny dance, fell over and turned it into a breakdance against the wall. It was a huge Fail at first but followed by a great recovery! We probably left at about 3.15 and headed straight back to the casino. There we found Jones and Brent and co sipping on some champagne. Dubai went and sat in a cash game out of his face and proceeded to raise blind bet blind every hand/street. One hand he even pushed for about £300 and before the guy had done anything he mucked his cards. Then said "I've shove/folded". The dealer then scoops the money to the other guy, who didn't have a clue wtf was going on! Later on Dubai tells me he was just balancing his shove/fold range. Fair enough then.

As the bar had closed by now we wanted something to do, so Myself, Nicky, Knave, Moorman & TommyC got a game going of £1/£1 just for a bit of fun between us. This was ok, Brent was dealing, getting tipped mentally by myself! Middy then decided to sit, cool, no probs. Bang went the sensible game and in came the gambling game. It was basically £100 in each pre every hand minimum 3 way. I have to say I quite enjoyed the game! At one point I was £900 up but didn't stop calling allin's blind. Jones limped for £1 on the button, Middy shoved the sb for £175ish, and I snap iso'd him blind, knowing my blind range is ahead of his shoving range! FML it turned out I had 34 to his 35green and he flushed anyway!

When they declared last hand it went mental, and we had a 6 way all in for minimum £150 each and everyone EXCEPT one person had put these in blind. Only Trigg looked at his cards before calling. So when he saw it come runner runner reds, he new his A7red had got there! MBSFN and he ended up about £600. I finished the game up £300 which I was happy enough with!

We all stumbled back to Buddies, and as Trigg won he said he would buy breakfast. So 8 of us went, and it was hilarious. We all ordered our stuff, most of us getting 2 drinks. And when Trigg wasn't listening I told them to order 2 more Ultimates just incase anybody wanted another! Obviously they wouldn't be eaten, but it is another £25 onto the bill! Our food came and within 3 minutes of it arriving we was out of there and George and Anthony (two dealers also eating on the next table), couldn't stop laughing as basically all we had ate was a fork full of our meals and left it! 10 meals hardly touched at all, gg Trigg and the £150 breakfast!

After the breakfast we couldn't be arsed to walk the 3 mins up the road and instead jumped in a taxi back to the hotel. As ChipRich still hadn't shown his face all night me, middy, tommyc, brent and jones decided we would follow brent to his room and bundle him when we got in there! This we did, and we was all happy now and ready to go to our rooms and to bed!
