Live Poker is Fun *end sarcasm*

30 runners

In 3 and a half hours of poker I saw

22, 55, 66, AK, and AT

Of those, I won 2 hands.

Then I pushed TT w 16K at 2K-4K to be called by the SB w A7o. Flop comes 345, turn 2.

Im ordering pizza.

Wabash Tourney

About to go play a tourney at the Wabash.

50 pound buy in plus a 50 pound rebuy or top up

here's to hoping

New Computer


I also just bought a new computer off apple.co.uk


A 24' iMac, 4 GB RAM, 1TB (1000 gigs) hard drive.

Now I currently own a MacBook and it is a super sick machine so I am looking forward to the iMac arriving next week.

For those reading, Macs are not great for poker as there are no poker tracking software programs which are compatible. They only work for windows. Now on my laptop I run a program called boot camp which is free from apple, and is used to install windows on a Mac. I simply boot in and out of windows when I play poker. While in Mac it is a Mac, when in windows it is a windows machine. This is great, but can get annoying at times booting in and out, especially as I dont like surfing or downloading anything in windows for fear of viruses spyware etc. So this time round, with my iMac, I am going to buy a program called VmWare Fusion. This is a program which allows windows to be run while in Mac and simply treats windows as an application. This way I can play poker on windows with tracking software etc running while I listen to music, surf, whatever in my mac without fear of viruses. (Macs dont have viruses or spyware and the past 2 pcs I have had both were hit by viruses which were not cool at all.)

Can't wait for it to arrive!

Should be here a week on Monday. I'll post pics when I get it set up.

Oh, and 12 tabling with no overlap, 16 with a little overlap sounds like fun.

Moving Up

Well I am now a 100NL grinder. Officially. Goodbye 50NL.

I was playing 50NL last week and I was honestly bored. I knew I was rolled for 100NL at 3K and I wanted to move up. The idea of griding out 20 buyins at 50NL was not what I wanted to do. So I jumped.

Since Saturday, I have played 3 sessions and Im up $1200. I am currently 16 tabling and my PT win rate is a little below 3pt/bb. Not bad at all. My roll is now a shade over 4K.

I am also playing really well which is good considering I am actually running quite badly overall.

My three biggest winning hands thus far at 100NL

I also am about to get platinum for September (on 9k this month currently) but I am only 6K vpps from Supernova so that will take over soon. I hope to hit 'Nova before the month ends. Should be able to do it I think.

Oh, and I took a gander at 200NL at the end of a session the other night. Just to see whats what and how the game flows.

good times...
