Day Ten

Mixed feelings today, On one hand I went deep in two decent MTTs the $6k $54 and the $12k $108 freezouts. After getting dealt absolutely nothing for about 2 hours in the $6k I finally went out in 26th position after being caught stealing with Q9 against AJ, not the end of the world I mean I went in behind but would have been nice to at least hit the top 20 and cash from the 165 field but its fine. The 12k started off an absolute disaster when by 25/50 I was down to 1010 from my 2500 starting stack, then I got a triple up with AK that somehow held up in a three way pot and then started picking up momentum building up to about 14k and sitting in 8th position with 24 left. After getting check raised after I raised from the button with 66 and it came down K24 I was down to around 8000 and the blinds had escalated to 500/1000 with 100 antes and we were down to fourteen players, a guy who had been pretty active opened from the cut off for 2500, I had QK and thought maybe I could get him to fold his hand and if not I could still be in front as his range was big from that position. He called with 44 and a non paint board sent me to the rail in 14th with $222 for my efforts. Not a horrible result by any means as this was another 150+ field.

FML Of The Day: Today, I called my boyfriend upset because my best friend has begun stripping to pay for school. His response was, "Where and what time does she work?" FML

I would so high-five that guy if he said that in my presence.

Stts were almost as unfavourable, I lost my first two a $20 and a $50, finishing 5th in both after losing 50/50s. This was soon gone from my mind though as I took down a $50 for $250 despite losing a 14k pot in the HU when my 22 was taken down by A5 on a 77399 board. No matter though as my HU aggression was enough to bully him and earn me the win. I then finished 4th in a $50 after losing a flip to bust a guy and then got caught shoving with 89 by AQ Axx flop and bye bye me. I still finished up though and I’m feeling confident about my game again which are two important things so hopefully the rest of the week I can dish out some abuse and take down some $$$$.

In other news I was unable to get Jimmy Carr tickets for my Birthday, bad times. I have been a huge fan of his for a while now and would have been great to see him live but unfortunately that was not to be as his one and only show in Southend was sold out, I guess going to have to settle for a drunken night out somewhere. Nice result for United tonight after losing to Villa at the weekend. Would be nice if Chelsea or Arsenal were to slip up this week, also, what in the world is going on at Birmingham! They are on an unreal run currently sitting in sixth after being in the relegation zone at the beginning of the season for weeks. Maybe all that money that has been invested really is inspiring the players. Sad news about Dean Ashton retiring, he was defiantly a highly skilled player and when fit was a great goal scorer but I really do hope he doesn’t seek to sue Shaun Wright-Phillips and Chelsea, it would in my opinion put a blemish on his career and kind of makes him seem money hungry although many would argue what is he supposed to do now that he cant make money from football anymore which is completely a fair point.

Random Fact Of The Day: There are more germs in the human mouth than in the anus.

I can honestly say I’m very surprised.

Looking forward to tomorrow and no doubt the rest of the week, weekend is going to be huge, so doubt will get any poker in so will hopefully get in a lot before then. Hopefully get to have a little live game on Saturday with the boys, been a while since me and Gaz played heads up and I know Paul for some deluded reason wants to play me at poker as he thinks he can beat me so could even end up winning my night out money from them. Finger crossed eh.
