Sunday 1 April 2012

Lezzzzgooo!...

Delighted to finally be into April, going to get the head down and actually play the games I should be playing!!. Obviously I should have listened to Bogan and Marc at the beginning of last month and just played Mtts, rather than participating in that stupid 2s bet. The winner of the bet in the end had like 7k games played. Fair play to him, but his hourly probably would have been matched at Maccy Ds, with weekends off.

2s for March


I'm hopefuly finished with 2s now forever. They seriously depress me. I had to grind out 500 of them on the 30th/31st of March because I had that prop bet with Marc to get 2500 games in for the month. It's pretty ridiculous I left it to so late to get the games, I mean I had approx 1500 games after the first week. But I guess it's the same with everything, when I was in school or College. Everything was ALWAYS left until the last minute!.

March overall

 
Was a pretty good month for me overall, even if I lost 2/3 prop bets. I'm now out of make-up and really looking forward to a strong April. Again I'll probably be taken close to a week off as I'm going over to Nottingham to play the UKIPT. Still un-decided if I'm going to sell any action for that. I mean I know I probably should as the plan is to move in with Marc at the end of this month. However, I sattied in. And who doesn't love a dream. 

Last mention poker wise in this post, could have had a decent Sunday today accept I punted stacks quite bad, which I'm still working on cutting out. Just seems to be Sundays that brings out the worst in me. I took 4th in a 360 cap as a day saver, even though I had a monster chip lead and should have shipped it. Still booked a small winning day which is always good when at one point was looking like my worst day backed.

Anyone, like I mentioned in my previous post I was meeting up with Jono (Gawa9) during the week. We all booked into Jurys Inn and met up in Temple Bar in this little steak house called 'Fxb'. I can honestly say. My mouth was having an orgasm for the entire meal. It was gorgeous. It was a quiet little restaurant, and it didn't know what had happened. The Norweigan poker championship was on in City West in Dublin, due to poker been illegal over there. And Jono been Jono, knew a few of these people. So we originally had a booking for 12, 2 Irish, 1 American, 1 N.Irish, 1 English, and 7 Norweigans. However, Jono got a call and another dozen or so Norweigans ended up in the restaurant. 

After dinner, we moved on to D2 on Hardcourt Street. Larz had a tabled booked there. My plan was to get Jono and Dan (Patman01) really fucked up. However they both seemed reluctant. So I purchased the first round of what turn into a cib war with Jono for rounds of Jaggers. I just know they were 3 for a 10r, and at least one round of 15 turned up. I'd love to go into detais in trip reports, however I'm just not sure who reads this blog, so may move it to 2+2 or something. Or at least to somewhere, where I won't incriminate myself. Anyways, before we left D2, Jono and myself provided this man with the biggest tip he's ever received apparently. Can't remember exactly how much it was, but I made him work for it by giving a big smile. 

Jono and Mr.Smiles he shall be called. 


We moved onto Coppers, unfortunately without Jono and Savanna. Who by the way I didn't mention. She just flew over to Ireland on a whim after meeting Jono for approximately 9 hours previous. Now she's travelling around Europe with him for the next 12 days. So fair play to her. Just going for it. Kev, Dan and myself went onto Coppers. Had a pretty good night, even if I got cock-blocked by some girls friends. They wouldn't let her come back to the hotel with me. Wish I had pics. Way out of my league, was too good to be true. At the end of the night, we gave it one last chance with a group of stragglers, however, even they weren't having it. Dan, the amateur was going to add them on facebook the next day. However, after hanging around with Kev and myself for a night he knows better. Nottingham will be fun with the Irish accents out in force. 

The lads and the stragglers



I know this is getting incredibly tl;dr. However, last thing. When Kev and myself ended up back in the hotel empty handed. What started off as who could do the best back flip running up the wall and onto bed. Kind of got out of hand. The second messy night in that hotel and won't be heading back in a hurry. Lauras friends from Wales are coming over on Wednesday, so I shall post a report after that. 

When normal sleeping just aint cutting it.....


At least it's on my Dads card... (bandit)
