as a result gimme a shout when im back if you want to discuss 3bet bluffing rivers

FTFY mate.

And from your previous post, I wont shout out guesses at where you are any more Cheesy

The latest one was too hard to resist Tongue

no probs dude... best to just pm me.  After all Blonde is public.

But against certain regs I reckon cr/ 3bt bluffing rivers would be stupidly profitable and when one finally calls we just flip/reverse!

Hey, just had my first 500g steak!

It was on the menu and I have never seen a fillet that big before so I apologised to my tablemates and then ordered the king of fillets and obv had it medium-rare with jacket potato, spinach and tomato's! Cheesy Cheesy

accompanied with a relatively decent red wine and I was loving it all!

pictures to follow... (when I can get them resized and onto blonde)

you rookie...


I'm going to miss this place, not sure I want to leave.... sigh-a-ments.

Great thing is I get to go back to C and the superflat! Cheesy  (she's cleaned and tidied and everything!)



I'm out of the Dec DS which sucks... turns out I've got some weekend work in europe, can't really turn it down which does kinda suck.  But it has to be the 'right' choice.  Esp since I need to grind my way outta the micros before I start smashing >£500 turneys.


wish me luck...

In the Lounge on the way back from Johannesburg and I absolutely loved it!

Had a pretty slow start socially but finally got off the ground and once I did there was no looking back.

Bought shedloads of stuff in the airport but fortunately for me there are trolleys to help with the load.



I had a cracking time, so I'll let the springboks off this afternoons rugby win, the girls in the office are fiercely patriotic and im sure they'll be celebrating most of the evening!

had some soup n ready for the plane, I've just seen on fb that TL900 Tom Langley is currently deep in GPS Sheffield, really hope he can keep it up and snag another title.  Such a nice guy and totally deserves it, if you guys can post in here how he's doing id appreciate it.
Thanks.

Sad was stackedddddddddd at one point. Then played a hand so so bad vs a whale and didnt pull the trigger when I should have and woulda had the world. Ended up losing a flip to Tim Chung to min cash.

I wouldn't normally try so hard, but didn't have another opportunity I could wait for. I wasn't ready to surrender what I WANTED SO MUCH, that easily, I couldn't guarantee a call with me staying stoic and relying on a flinch "top pair" calling reflex.

Thanks for the update mate, sigh at you not 'going deep'...

Obviously there is a 'deadman' on the final.. except this time its the one with balls.

Tim is a cracking guy, shame he couldn't do better either..... That's one of the only problems I've noticed over the last couple of years - there are a lot of really nice guys n girls that I have a lot of time for and if its not me taking the title then I want them too.  I can't root for them all! Cheesy

Sucks I'm not going to be playing DTD this weekend, I've been looking forward to my next deepstack ever since May.  I can't exactly have a ridic score and get this diary off the ground if I'm not playing, but I also truly believe that I need to work harder and harder and the 6max micros is where that will be the best for me long term.

Anyways, back to the grind - i've just discovered 'whatssapp' this afternoon and its now time to get back to 'it'.

Played a session and had a very grinding and slow and bitt-y start.

But a few solid value hands and a few micros players who don't like to fold and we got something going.... kept the solid play and lack of spew going.

Only had one 'speculative' hand where I 3bt QQ sb vs UTG and then cbet/ cshove a 7xx10 board... and got there vs AA's.



This is how we went, had a couple of +ve$ sessions when away... and we're back on our way to 25nl for good.

I've got a decent amount of time off from now till Jan

Going to have the next couple of days, then off for a short work trip over the weekend... (let someone else win the DS then) and then back off again... this time till something like 3/4th Jan.

Got a lot of time to work on my game and convince myself to go to the gym.  I'm going to make some targets for Dec and see how i do with them.

Any tips or ideas are welcome, but they will include -
weight
gym sessions
poker sessions
poker hands
poker winnings
spewage (judgable by 'you')
and potentially some mini brag to do with C Cheesy Cheesy

just put some munch together... turns out I've accidentally defrosted Charlene's Mum's best dish - her mutton curry that C had stored in the freezer in one of my 'beef chillie' pots.

So now I have some genuine asian mutton curry with brown rice.... nom nom nommmm... session after i think.
