Congratulations Moface

Congratulations to Punterslounges Moface winning the Virgin Bloggers Freeroll ...................... Las Vagas and the wsop beckons

Virgin Blogger Freeroll

In the end i finished 10th out of 72 .................. so i was first knocked out of the final table.

The prizes were- 1st WSOP package,2nd 90,000 V-points, 3rd 60,000 V-points, 4th 40,000 V-points, 5th 30,000 V-points, 6th 20,000 V-points, 7th 10,000 V-points.

..............never mind eh!!!!!

Overall i'm quite happy about how i played, i started off playing as tight as a camels arse in a sandstorm, but didn't really have many good starting hands for the entire game -JJ was the best pocket pair i had , and i also had a few AK's and AQ's. Apart from that , not a lot ......................... i had to keep going by stealing blinds and stealing a few pots.

Overall I can't complain though as even though my starting hands weren't the best there were a few hands where the cards fell kindly for me which kept me in it

On the final table i ended up being the shortest stack, and went all-in with A4o in a last ditch effort to stay in ........................ moface called with A10 and won so i have no complaints about my exit. As i said before i was generally happy with my play, it just wasn't my night.

It was nice to see so many PL members on the final table though...................... hopefully 1 will end up at the wsop

Not a lot Happening

The Uefa cup final meant no poker tonight, so not a lot to report ....................... i'll just have to save the best for the Virgin bloggers Freeroll tommorrow night ( thats if my screenname eventually shows up in the lobby..................... fingers crossed) .........................actually i'll probably have an early exit, but what the hell lol.

in the meantime - lacking any interesting news- here is a photo of some fish to relax you.

The Begining

Well i've probably picked the worst time to start a poker blog as i haven't been playing very much poker for the last couple of months. With the nights getting longer i seem to have come out of my winter hibernation, cooped up behind a computer screen in the evening. Instead, the dog is getting a lot of walking, i'm swimming 3 times a week and have bought a motorcycle ........................ it hasn't left too much time for poker, and when i have played i've ended up becoming restless after the first 1-2 hours of a MTT (very unlike me) and making some poor decisions (not entirely unlike me lol) ................... so this week i'm going to start playing a few $0.25/0.50 cash tables and maybe play a few low buy-in STT's to get me back into the swing of things.
