So I have decided that I will play some poker tournaments.

Obviously I have very little idea what I'm doing, but will approach it in a high spirited manner Smiley

I'm playing the bounty builder, the sunday million and the warm up. Lets see how I get on!

I'm not as patient as I once was :p

Had to play some HU PLO on the side to keep me involved, then when the action stopped I went to spin and goes.

I got like 50 chests though that was fun, ended up winning on the day!

Still got it yo

Sup everyone,

I am currently in thailand where i been since Dec 27th with Franky, his GF and Laura, we have a nice Villa in Phuket and i basically been doing nothing since i got here which is amazing. Actually not nothing at all... I been getting into golf, which is basically like a full time job, so far I learned that golf is ridiculously difficult, just grinding my way through terrible hole after terrible hole and dusting golf balls like no-ones business to get to a good shot/good hole and dining out on that Smiley

I'm also working on my beard.

2018 was a really manic year, i worked pretty much non stop, to the point I actually made myself quite ill and pissed Laura off quite often but had some really fun/big moments, was a successful year in the end. I played some HUGE poker games and broke all records for biggest pot won/lost, most money won/lost, biggest bluff etc was a lot of fun/got my juices flowing again after basically not playing for 16 months i jumped back into the biggest stakes. Had some fun sports betting projects, bet on a lot of darts matches, messed around with bitcoin, I had a once-in-a-lifetime bet win which didnt get paid out for decent 6 figures which was the years real low-point. Was a bit of a busy fool though spent a lot of time on nonsesne and didnt spend much time with Laura so going to try be better this year, the january off-work in the thai villa is a good start Smiley

Life's good, lot more boring than it used to be, might try repost some old blogs from the glory days Tongue

Great to see this Diary back Dave, nice one.

I know it might be private, but a little more detail on that bet that resulted in a 6 figure win/not win?

Was the poker live or online? PLO, I hope? More details.....

And at the risk of making a fool of myself, who is "Franky"?

Sup tikay, nice to be back!

So I'd happily share the full story but im not 0% to get some money so i'm gonna be a bit coy about the details but basically we were betting at a private bookmaking company (not a regular bookie btw - sort of a clue, cant say more) and we pinged in one bet for a bit shy of £2m and the company refused to pay on some pretty feeble grounds... The company and the bets were made overseas.

Hate being all Pleno with the "got this super exciting news but can't tell anyone" Cheesy but like i say we not drawing dead to potentially get paid something, fingers crossed. My side was over 1/2 million pounds so was quite excited to receive that!

The poker games were all live, some london, some nottingham, some overseas, stakes ranging from 25/50 to 400/800 with wide variety of results, the biggest pots were all pretty boring really (unless you in them) like super wrap+fd at 6card vs top set and some draws.  One hilarious hand though I love sharing Smiley

We're playing plo and the games going a bit whacky, Iv suggested a game where if you fold PF you put £200 dead in the pot if you fold pf, everyone agrees bar one player (who'll most of you will know, very nice guy) who is in for small buyin and up over 100k at this point, he jokingly refuses and says im targeting him by suggesting it (which i wasn't Tongue ) and then agrees asfter we exchange some friendly needles.

Very first hand of the game it goes 3-way £400k pot including that player who put  his whole £120k stack in with ATT554 all black cards Cheesy - he lost the pot and goes "NO MORE BRIGHT IDEAS DAVE"

Correction to "a few years back", just checked & it was NINE years ago, jeez.

Mr Eames cashed too, as did Miss Boeree.
