JP - Told you that one day your would be a Star lol lol -
Listen mate Stop worrying about Poker lets talk about who taught you how to play the relaxing game of Kalooki-
At the begginning i loved it when i crushed you as i think i knocked you out just twice in a Hundred Times playing Poker (And then i got Lucky),
But with Kalooki , That was a different story and here i was THE DADDY but like all card Games you soon started to quickly pick up the strategy of the game and you started to Bash me up -
Cards and you were meant for each Other and Congrats on your First bracelet which i know you so wanted and so Deserved.
I was glad to speak to you the Day of your Final in Vegas and was Surprised how relaxed you seemed before the Start -
For any Decent sized Tourny i still feel very Nervous and tense prior to playing which effects my game, i don't know what it is i just can not relax during play and cannot play my normal game like when playing a regular tourny - obvously you seam to take it in your Stride, Did you ever Feel this way when you first started to Play liveTournies and if so how did you overcome it ? Got any Tips Champ
As you know i do play on line as well as Live but never found it easy to Master the Game , always get the Odd run of form at Luton and the Vic in small tournies £50 - £200 and on line, but as i Run my Own Business full time i suppose it makes it a lot harder for me to put my full Concentration on the Game-
You are Living proof that there is a Skill and Tactical Strategy to poker and you have mastered this well as your results prove-----
I do believe that Players whom Play full Time, Sponsored or not will always have the Edge, Do you feel it is possible for a Part time/ recreanational player to Step up there Standard and if so what do you feel is the best Route ( After all we dont want you to win all the Tournies it not Fair Lol Lol )
Keep up the good Work as for you this is your living- You are a Credit to the Game and a decent Chap whom always is respectful to all you come across on and off the Tables .
Listen when your Back in Town will have to Arrange a "Kalooki Night" with the old Crew - Justin, Chris, Ross and Tom Arthurs lol lol and we will have a whip round to pay for Dinner !!
Look after your self matey and will speak soon
