Went to Alea - the triple chance started late with about 10 players and finally had 19 runners.
I didn't run bad - I just played like an idiot and was out before the end of the second level.
Cash started with 5 players sometime around 10 and broke up around 2ish. Still feeling unfocussed I dribbled my stack down to about £60 and then got allin pre against the table captain (monty?). I raised to £6, he re-raised to £15, I shoved with
He flipped his hand as he called my shove
.
Flopped a flush draw, turned gutshot and rivered broadway and never looked back.
Ran good on the first two deals for rakefree although the AKvAA was the only hand of note I won in the first hour I did much better after that

Some nights it can be like that for me - suddenly I'm in tune with the table and making good decisions. These are the nights that make me keep coming back.
Service and approach from the staff was tremendous, the table had plenty of banter and 5% rake capped at £5 means that outside of special events my choice of venues when I'm down here midweek is no longer an automatic drive to Redfield Way.
