Prose from a Poshboy

You're speaking about the bar chart pic right guys?

Ha ha never the other is more precious 😁

OK, OK.

Pretty solid performance that Alex, 12 from 12 is quite something.

How much longer will you continue to ply your trade as a pro poker player? Any plans yet to get a "proper job"?

Do you keep in touch with the lads? I saw Mitch at a recent SPT - Manchester I think - and we had a bit of a chat. Was both surprised and pleased to see him. He's not changed one bit.

No plans to quit yet no Tony! I wrote in August feeling a bit doom and gloom about the future of the games but I think it's just cyclical and it's picked up a lot since then and as long as I continue to enjoy it and do OK then I'll crack on. Not many people get to look forward to going to work, and I genuinely do every day - so to trade that in just because it's a bit miserable during the downswings - would have to be for something really special - and I haven't found that just yet.

Still in touch with the guys yeh! We had a Christmas do in Nottingham recently. All the usual faces there. Mitch has lost a bit of weight I believe Tony. Though I haven't seen him since Christmas so it has probably all gone back on by now...

That sounds idyllic Alex, delighted for all 3 of you. Long may it last.

You are a Liverpool fan, right? Strewth, what a team they have become.

Poshboy does WSOP


I don't have any details, but word reaches me (thanks Magic817) that Alex has 970,000 in the WSOP Main.

We might just get a proper sweat going here, & if he can continue, it'd be the best thing ever.

I'm busy today & all weekend, up at SPT Manchester, but if anyone can keep us updated, or has any more details, it'd be appreciated.

GL Alex.

Found a Tweet from him, does not tell us much though.


Fastest table of tournament poker I’ve ever played and it’s day 3 of the #wsopmain approaching the bubble Live poker is back, alive and well!

I am jealous of all those at the WSOP

He has featured high in the chipstacks for some time.  I was thinking they must have someone from the UK doing the updates. 

I was going to put him on Pad's twitter comp, but someone had beat me to it.

Good luck Alex, but pls finish just behind Ben Yu on chipcounts on the 16th. 

and good luck with the SPT Tikay.  Sorry can't make it this time, family stuff.

Cheers.

News from Alex.

He has lost his blonde log in, so we need help from a blonde Mod please, as he's happy to keep us updated.

In the meantime, play is (or was) about to start.

He returns sitting 117/1,000, he has 862k, 4K/8k blinds.

[tikay]

If someone can contact a mod who can sort this, I'd appreciate it. Where's Iron or Tighty when I need them?

Alex can be contacted on Twitter or via me.

Here's the latest DM from Alex via Twitter. Rather than interpret, I'll post the message in it's entirety.

Glglglgl Alex (can't he just make a new account short term?)

[celtic]

I’ve changed his password and sent it to him on Instagram.

[cambridgealex]

Hi everyone!

Throwback to the old days, why not eh?

2m on dinner break. Had an enormous sweat for a full double up just before. vs on . He’s check raised me and I’ve jammed. Huge hold for the good guys!

8/16k next. 400 odd left and two more levels to play tonight. Exciting!

Great stuff Alex. We haven’t met, but I feel like I know you through reading your diary....

Enjoying a vicarious WSOP, so please continue with the updates if you can. GL
