Dawn approach in derby, value or dangerous in your opinion?

So I was playing ISPT and would have been direct buying in after selling 40% to some peeps on here with a special "Eso" backers caveat as a bit of extra value and having got close in the Sunday live Day1 peaking at 485000 (48.5 for Wembley) with 20 left I finished 14th when pushing the bubble really early to try and build a really big stack as my table was good but unfortunately lost vs all the shorties on my table and bust in a great spot where young agro chinese kid min opens btn from 600k and an older guy flats the btn with us finding 33 in the sb so ship 235k in abs confident if we get through the kid we win the pot but he had "Dem Aces" and it was geeeeeeg.

Bricked the onlines from my tokens and had one shot at the live event at Luton Genting (Vinnie told me it would be softer than Southend) and shipped a seat giving backers a great deal imo.  The Sat itself was a real rollercoaster for me on the FT having sat down with an avg stack I was the only player aware of the big blind jumps so was jamming vs some of them 2-3 times an orbit and scooping pot after pot to see me through the levels until we were 6 handed when I was captain/chippy and pretty much in control.

David LLoyd of Luton DC fame was to my left which I'm sure he was loving when we drew seats but unfortunately for him I took every spot away from him and having started with 1/3rd the chips in play he blinded down and was pretty frustrated.  I then dbld all the short stacks in std spots when I hadnt quite got a lock losing a few pots the last one being A10 v A8 co v BB leaving me with 65k at 6/12/1000 and next hand I ship KJo and get reshoved by the btn before that's called by Mrs Pham calls off and we win vs AJo and QQ to triple up and were down to 5 with 3 seats and £350.

I won a seat in a cooler and without a seat locked and blinds about to go 20/40k  Lloydy mins UTG and I have KK in the BB  and reship to be snapped and obv he has AA and me covered but I run better in these coups and a flop of Q8dd see's me quickly do a "diamond check" of his cards, nope he doesn't have one so I'm funking for an all Diamond flop to give us a sweat but instead the   pops out  and we hold and knock him out next hand BVB to go 4 handed.

Typical Luton style one guy then says "I'm not sure I can play Wembley so will take £100 from each of you" and £650 total now and you 3 can have the seats now ordinarily I would have snapped but these guys had 3 bb's and as he said it the dealer told him wait till after the hand so he shipped it in and I said "you guys do what you want but I'm not in as playing anyway" at which point Kenny P called off with QJo for his last 3bb losing to AJ of the guy who didn't want to play.

So we got home at 4.35am and went to sleep with Max waking at 7.10 and was in the office at 8.15 as per usual  Sad


So today we are playing 2a and am prepping by watching Cbeebies before leaving around 10am with Steve O'Keefe who won a seat thinking he was playing a sat in a day but luckily had 105k and thought he was a lock and folded to 79k when the bubble burst  (WAL)

GL all Blondes this weekend and early next week..

glad to see your getting day1 seats for ispt rich Smiley late regging in these sats is def the way forward i think. i think the good weather didnt really do any favours for dtd at the weekend at the club Sad , seeing the numbers . how was your las vegas team challenge thing? i turned up there on saturday late after crashing out of the G-casino £20 tourney in sheffield. i knew a few bristol players playing it so went to rail. it was done in one day too? wasnt it planned as a 2day live final thing? i hadnt looked into it but im sure they were saying that.
i ended up travelling with a few friends to gentings casino in luton, they have done it up really nice. Also i couldnt help notice 'strange' bettings from many players including limping 7 levels into a tourney time after time, awful play in a nutshell. have you played there before Rich?

it was my worst sit down ever experienced and of course furthest traveled, running into AA,AA,KK,KK within the first 1 hour  and using another bullet on a 50k starting stack lol. hopefully thats nothing like wembley else im guna be sat on row z crying on level 2 lol

ive not checked the online action, are they getting many runners?
Hey Ross sorry I hadn't replied mate till now, I actually saw you at the bar but me, Guy (Outragous) and the Ginger Ninja (Bettsy) were grinding a profit on 3card poker whilst sinking JD's and watching the Froch fight and then you had disappeared.

Our team was pants but it was a good weekend, yh we call it the "Luton Limp"  Wink

GL Saturday mate and hope to see you Sunday..
