Apat Edinburgh Trip Report

Ok....it all went pear shaped from the moment i got on the train to Edinburgh!!

Well i didnt get on the train to Edinburgh as it happens, i got on the one to London!! EEK!! Just as the doors shut and i emerge from the trains toilets i realise were going the wrong way, and then i make my discovery, its the London train leaving late....bollox!!!

I get the next available train from Durham and eventually get to Edinburgh about 2 hrs later than planned....and ive missed my 1st three hands of the tourney. Not to worry it seems cos im doing well and by the 1st break, im up to 21k and chip leader. This is easy it seems!

Well my bad day was gonna get worse, a few bad plays and a few bad beats and im gone even before the 2nd break.....wish id stayed in bed

Collected my silver medal off Des and then decided not to stay over and just get the hell out of Scotland however there was no trains after 7pm (I think Scotland must be a 3rd world country or something). So i decide to get the Megabus....ffs! 3 hrs later i arrive in Newcastle just as the pubs were kicking out, mental people everywhere, no public transport and thank the lord my mate was awake to pick me up!

Apat organised another great tourney, shame the gods decided to piss on me before it started!

See ya in Dublin haha!

My First Royal!!


3 Years of solid poker playing and finally ive hit my 1st royal flush....i lost the heads up tho lol

Pokerstars $100k gtd $10+1 entry Cash

Played the Pokerstars $100k gtd on sunday and managed to work my way through a field of over 22000 runners to finish in 787th.....now normally id not brag about being 787th in an online event but i played pretty well and even layed down some monsters....10 10 twice and QQ in the later stages. However what was even more special about this was that after 1 min and 45 secs of this tourney starting, i was down to 60 chips.......yes thats right 60 chips!!

Well i managed to wait til my bb and quad up to 280 and then the next two hands i quadded up again....and again!!! wowsers, pushing is easier than playing it seems! At the break i was up to 7.5k and laughing.

Anyway, if anyones not tried playing this grind then i suggest you all do, its a good laugh and lasts for ages, and even tho the money isnt great til the final table, its a good test of stamina at the very least!
