I'll start from the very beginning...
> Meeting Billy (newmanseye) at last! Top bloke. ~ Thanks for the lift
>Going to hotshots only to find it 'closed until further notice' then thetanks notice "BLONDEITES! Cock up, meet us in Frankie and Bennys, or go home"
> Dave knocking me out of the £20rebuy tourney on friday night... some mate he is!
> WINNING the £10 sit and go on friday night, got heads up with Tanky and he was chip leader, but no worries, I stole all his chippies but he didn't seem to mind too much! (really he is a bit miffed cos he got beaten by a girl!)
> Watching the Sat morning footy... even though Scotland lost
.. I still got to watch the boys sweat! Had a good laugh with Solver too, we were supposed to be supporting our teams but had much more fun laughing at people falling over, which leads me to the next...
> Billy slipping over then having a dirty patch on just one bum cheek!
> Arriving at the blondebash on Sat afternoon and receiving MY OWN (not Daves) namebadge... wooo! - then I lost it
> Getting knocked out by the tank... another one that claims to be my friend!
I mean, calling my all in with his AQ, whatta fish!
> Meeting In The Belly - thats an experience I'll never forget, true gent until he gets pissed, then all he says to people is "Oi... You're rubbish!"
> Meeting some of the blondites I haven't yet met such as madasahatstand, yt, scottm, 4kingnutz (nasty nasty boy!
), solver, alfa666, div, timaloy, chilli, justjo, jinky, and loads of other people but im struggling to remember so forgive me if I forgot you.
> Heads Up No1. Timaloy. I'd been warned about him, been told he was a very good player and that i'd probably struggle. I sat down and felt fine, my plan was to start aggressive and thats what I did. Raised frquently and he folded. The winning hand was A7 (which ironically is the hand I went out of the main event with) Timaloy raised to 200 (blinds 50/100) so I called. Flop 7 4 A, two pair, woo hoo, a small cheeky bet of 400...after a long think Timaloy raised to 1100 which I called. Turn 6. I bet and after another long agonising think Timaloy went all in, I instantly called and Timaloy turned over his A10, river 3 and bye bye Timaloy. Well played though, and sorry
> Heads Up No2. Royal Flush. I don't want to play, I feel ill and I'm tired, and it just got worse when I look over and see flushy waiting for me, I've got to play him heads up. Arrrrgggghhh! I was sh*t scared to say the least, but had the same technique as last time and started off aggressively, had got quite a good stack, flushy only had around 1000 chips so used that to his advantage and kept going all in. I didn't have the hands to call with until the 4th-ish time he went all in, I had J2 of spades, I had a good feeling so I called. Flushy had an Ace. 2 spades in the flop and a spade on the turn, FLUSH, no spade on the river so I win! Ayaaaaaaaar! I tell you, I felt amazing...I was buzzing! Next...
> Heads Up No3. Scottm. Same technique at last time, but oh dear, he has beaten me to it, he is raising near every hand. Ooooopsie. I turn the tables around and start to bully him. we end up with Scottm all in with QA vs my JJ, the jacks hold up and I've won! Now I really am feeling great, I couldn't quite believe how well I was doing.
> Heads Up No4. Rosyitb (babyface!) Sat down and shortstack (dealer) asks if he can call me anything else but Poppet because he feels weird saying it. Yes, Sophie is fine
First hand I have A4, right, I'm gonna raise this... rosyitb raises to 1000 pre-flop, and I call. Flop is A23 so I have a draw and aces, ALL IN, rosy turns over A9 and my 5 doesn't come. I'm out first hand. Doh!
> THE BUSTY GANG/THE GIRLIES have won the heads up challenge. Ayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!!!
> The sit and go that I played on saturday night, two to my right is 4kingnutz, again! Its been an ongoing thing all weekend, he keeps raising, especially on my big blind, great...hes back. Next to me is inthebelly, hmmmm, drunk as a skunk, should be ok. On the left is alfa666...neutral. Across the table is Mr 74 aka Brian Wilson...fish fish fish
then top jock scottish dave and chilli pepper. Jeez, I'm up against some fishy-raising-rather-good players. I call a small raise with 78 of spades, flop is 3 spades, Brian Wilson is all in with his two top pair and I win...result! Manage to last the whole game. 3 handed is myself, alfa666 and 4kingnutz. I manage to knock 4kingnutz out when he raises with his 77, I go all in and he calls, asks if I have a big pair and I say HUGE...AA - GET IN!! heads up, alfa and I, he is CL... but he got the same treatment as tanky the day before, I stole all his chippies too and won!
> I even did well as pokerchip tiddlywinks vs jinky and thetank. Well done to Tank that managed to get his chip on the dealer button... nice hand and well played
> I go over to see how Billy is doing and OMG, he has sooooooooo many chips. Well done for 9th place, I knew you'd do well.
> Finally getting Scottish Daves sticker!
I had an absolutely wonderful time even though I had a bad tummyache since early saturday morning. Met some amazing people and was reunited with my good friends! Sad to be home because I really did have a great time. Thank you to everyone that helped organise it *claps*. So whens BB3?
