Grinding For Dough - A Loafers Litany.

Very happy with that as there were an awful lot of regs today inc Monda and Longy and they run sooo good.

How do you know that? Just because you keep bumping into people you've got lots of hands on?

When you are playing 10-25 tables and the same players appear in most of them every day, it's a safe bet that they are regs.

Things were going well until 2.19pm when my internet connection crashed.plan b was put into operation but it took me twenty five frustrating minutes to position my laptop where the connection on my dongle was good - in the shed !.....I had several large stacks at the time,when i reconnected i had only four tables left but had blinded out in 7th,7th,5th and 3rd so the disconnection cost me about $150  sigh.

played 150 games for a loss of $63           

got $50 for reaching 5k vpp so not all bad news.

Post your PC spec up and see if people think your computer is good enough to be grinding on.I know you said it's pretty new but can't harm to check.So frustrating when having disco problems as you start worrying during the next session if it's going to happen again,so tilting.

My name is Dave but since my teens i have been known by the name of Boo or Booder.I'm an old person,not old as in Tikay old but the wrong side of 40.Father to a lovely daughter who made me a Grandfather last November.I live in the Norfolk town of Dereham , twixt Norwich and Kings Lynn.
Have had various employments including Butchering,Labouring,Window Fitting , Long Distance Lorry Driving , Door Supervisor , Delivery Driver and Window Cleaner.
Gave up work a few years back due to ill health and started to earn a living playing MTT'S and 7 card stud cash and played a few of the regular live circuit events.Ill health to my parents forced me to abandon the poker to look after them
Started to get staked by Matt (Evilpie) a while ago after i returned to poker when my parents were in better health.

If you are getting to the point where an internet disconnection is costing you £100, you need something better than standard ADSL/ Virgin, in my opinion. Might be worth looking at getting a leased line, or at least some kind of automatic 3G dongle backup.

Good all round performance today.Looks like Kenny has instilled a sense of passion in the team.May it continue.

Chilled tonight with the last episode of Sons Of Anarchy. What a terrific track to close the finale with.

All time top Liverpool XI please Boo.

All time top Liverpool XI please Boo.

WOW   That's a hell of a tough one. We have been blessed with some real quality players (and some shockingly bad ones ! ) and i have been following them since the late 60's which makes it even harder.



GK    Clemence ,Ray 
                     Just gets the nod over Reina.In an era when there was only one sub and atrocious playing surfaces he really was in a different  class.Never wore gloves early in his career either.

RB   Neal , Phil
                    Probably the easiest selection.Nicknamed Zico by the Kop.Excellent penalty taker.

LB   Lindsay , Alec
                   Such a cultured left foot , always seemed to have so much time on the ball.Didn't see as much of him as the later players but only Alan Kennedy runs him close.

CB's  We have been blessed with some outstanding central defenders from Ron Yeats and Larry Lloyd through Emlyn Hughes,Lawrenson ,Thompson and Carragher but i would have to pick Alan Hansen and Hyypia.Hansen is probably the best defender i have ever seen at bringing the ball out of defence,always looking so calm and comfortable in posession.And Sami ?  well the guy is a legend,he has to be a bit special to get the nod over Carra.Chips in with valuable goals and has the heart of a lion.

RM    Callaghan was the obvious choice but with so many midfield candidates i have chosen Gerrard.I have never seen a guy inspire and lead a team like Stevie.Even from his youth days you could see he was going to be quality.Class , pure class.

LM    Barnes , John. Nicknamed Tarmac (the black Heighway).Along with many fans , i was unsure if he was good enough and consistant enough to play for Liverpool.He soon left us in no doubt,winning the player of the year and the Football Writers award.If only he could have reproduced his club form for his country.

CM   This was the hardest position.Hamann and Alonso would certainly get in many fans sides,as would Terry McDermott and one of the most underrated players i have ever seen-Ray Kennedy.(older Gooners will know just what a special player he was). My two choices are Jan Molby and Graeme Souness.Love him or hate him,there is no denying that Souness was an outstanding player.Arrogant perhaps,but an arrogance borne from his belief that he was the best player on the pitch and more often than not he was.Jan was quite simply the best passer of a ball i had seen at that time or since.Always carried a bit of weight but what he lacked in mobility he more than made up for with his vision.

CF  It breaks my heart to not include Robbie Fowler but the pairing of Dalglish and Rush is the best strikeforce i have been privelidged to watch.
