This is how the hand played out. I'm utg and make it 7 . Folds round to Tom who's in the sb and makes it 22 looking down at 1 king. I decide its a good spot to 4 bet so make it 77. Tom then checks his other card and he has kk. He 5 bets to  140-160 after a tank. Back to me I have Tom slightly covered and tank 6 bet shove for 430. Some ppl think this is crazy but with the history we have and the fact that I 6 bet shoved I think he is correct to fold here. At the time we were only 6 handed and in reality I'm only really shoving here with aa.

Drove down to Bham to play cash tonight with Mitch and Andy. Feeling pretty shattered from a tiring day on the trading floor - got my stock portfolio up and running boom! Was really exciting buying the shares and kept checking during the day how i was getting on. Up 200 in the end, which almost covers the transaction costs but a decent start! My Dad recommended going for big companies in Oil, gas, food and drink, cos everybody always needs that right?

Tom and I invented a sickkkkk flop game today. By far the best game I've ever invented. 4 flops, 8 cards each. You place 2 cards on each flop and run the turns and rivers and see who wins. Thats the easy part. You have two sweat cards on each board that you don't see till the river. So you're final hand is a separate 4 card omaha hand for each board. Then you, from a separate deck, take all the two spades, jacks, queens, kings and aces. These cards determine how much each board is worth. This is called the sweat deck. Jack is £0, Queen is £5, King is £10, Ace is £20. A black deuce doubles whatever the payment ends up being, a red deuce reverses it so the winner pays the loser for that board. Got it?

E.g. I win the first of the four boards. The sweat deck card is a King. Tom pays me £10. I lose the second board, the sweat card is a black deuce -Tom is on for doubles. The next card is a red deuce, now I'm on for doubles! Ace ball = £40 for me. Can get quadrupled if u hit both black deuces. Some seriously sick sweats as you can imagine!

Just got a seat in the game...laters

Gotta have a bit of a moan about the Broadway casino in Birmingham. Will keep it succinct.

  • Maximum buyin £250. I have direct position on big fish. Big fish gets in 250 on the flop with AK on 822 and rivers a K to crack my QQ. Big fish now as 1k. I have to reload for 250. TF (tilt factor): 10

  • Average buyin £80. Starting hand requirements change and you have to play hands that make good top pairs. Suited connectors and small pairs go down in value. I hate playing this way. On the upside, you can be sure to get you're money in at least 70% most of the time to stack them. TF: 8

  • Feeder system. You have to ask to move tables and can only do so when the tables are balanced. You go from game 3 to game 2 to game 1. TF: 6

  • Dealers. They are mostly bad tempered, rude and slow. TF: 7

  • Players. All recreational players, little or no regs, all foreign. Not much banter or chat with the locals. Accent - very tilting. TF: 4

  • Chips and cards. Lots of chips broken or chewed. You spend a lot of time playing with cash as the system to bring chips on the table for cash is pretty woeful. Playing with cash is so tilting. Cards, too small, all marked or bent in someway. TF: 6

  • Rake. The one saving grace. It's amazing. £5 session fee per hour. People do leave earlier than they otherwise would've done because a session fee is coming up, but it's still awesome value. TF: 0


Pretty amusing sequence of events occured- I lose the QQ vs AK hand, and leave the table to get more chips/chill for a bit with Mitch who's grinding Pharaohs again. The fish that stacks me stacks Andy while I'm gone. Andy reloads. I come back, snap double off said fish, which gives the fish an excuse to leave. Never seen Andy look so pissed off at me!

Lost 170 for the session, Andy 500, Mitch 1k, so a pretty awful road trip for team eureka!

My good mate Toby is coming to stay today for a couple of days. Him and Steve were dealers at DTD and we hung out all the time last year, they live in london now - massive heroes.  Zizzis with the mrs later nomm nomm <3 zizzi.
