Well it's been a quiet couple of weeks for me as I've been rather poorly........

Big news for me was being asked to be a moderator on PuntersLounge.com I am honoured to have been asked and had no hesitating in accepting. Its strange how a website can become a big part of your life !!!!

Poker wise not a lot happening. Been playing mostly STT's and slowly building the bankroll up, Fulltilt poker and SportingOdds are where I mainly play for STT's and its been going ok.

Did start having a go at the SportingOdds STT league and made an ok start getting up to 7th in the league but a horrible run wiped out the profit and now I think I will have to wait till Novembers and start again.

Tonights PuntersLounge league game is Omaha hi/lo and having never played it before I thought I would go over to the play money tables on Betfred for a bit of practice, 10 minutes in and i hit a hearts Royal flush ! Thats 2 royals in 2 weeks now !!!!!!

Well I've had pretty much a week off from poker, partly to do with work but to be honest mainly to do with last Saturdays PartyPoker Million Monthly final. It started off with nearly 8000 entrants and to gain entry to the main final you needed to finish in top 1000 which would have given entry to the main event plus $400.

The night started off well, dealt KK 3 times but only got action once which doubled me up. Played some good solid poker and got up to about 25k when average stack was only 10k and number of entrants was steadily going down.

Then went totally card dead and as the numbers went down even further so did my stack. TBH I know it was partly my own fault, I tightened up far to much (the $400 would also have been a new personal best for me as well) and eventually was left with about 1025 people left and sitting on just 6k with the big blind (8000/4000 blinds) next. Dealt 55 and go all in only to be called by 10 10 and no help. out in 1019th !!!! Totally gutted is an understatement, To be so close and then mess it up gave me a major downer !

Congratulations to GaF and Staffy who did qualify and hopefully I will still see you there in the big one !







The PL HEADS UP TOURNAMENT has now ended with Rosco as a worthy winner, to get through a field of that quality takes some doing !! WELL DONE

Just a little side note, I helped organise it and many thanks must go to Betfred for providing the tables. GaF helped me out immensly, I would have been stuck without his help and advice and yet he still found time amongst all his other stuff to help and advise me. GaF you really are a PL LEGEND !!!! Big big big thanks to PL SLAPDASH who dontaed £300 of his own money to provide the prize fund ! as I posted earlier mate just saying thank you seems a bit inadequate, it was an incredible gesture and appreciated by all on PUNTERS LOUNGE.


Well I'm now off till Wednesday so its time to forget about last weekend and try to get back in the groove, good luck to all and see you on some final tables.........
