Got to Luton half way through Level 2 and was pleased to see a couple of fish in Seats 1 & 3. Had a bloke with the most ridic hat ever. He looked like he had come straight from a madness convention. I'm sure the hat fitted him at some point in his life, probably when Madness first arrived on the music scene. Sadly the table broke before i had a chance to get their chips
Got moved to table Edna/Tikay/China Mug/Tighty and 5 randoms.
Tighty departed in a cracker of a hand getting it all in on the turn of a
board v china mug who had
. The river was always gonna be the
and despite wearing one of the nicest jumpers I have seen he was on his way home.
I plodded along, wary of the fact that my mentor Anthony Kendall was sat two my right and couldn't bear to disappoint him by playing silly. So when China Mug raises to 2100 @ 200-400, I decided to flat from the sb with Kings. I think it's always best to do this in case an ace comes. I checked the J88 board and China unsurprisingly set me in for my last 3900. I made the call and held v his KQ.
Up to 14.5k i raised to 1000 with 77 and the button calls. we check the KK9 flop and I bet the 6 on the turn. He calls. I then fire a blocker bet on the 8 river and he calls with 9 10. Very next hand I raise with QQ, same guy flats and i cbet the A54 flop. He sets me all in and I pass. He shows an Ace. Sure was surprised. Next hand i'm in the BB and check A7o/s. Flop comes A87 two spades and I check raise China's 3100 bet into 1600 all in and he calls the extra 4100 with
and gets there on the river. So another early night, won't do me any harm, as i can get a decent nights sleep. Again.
