3 games so far tonight,BWIN have an 11cent tourney with $1000 added - will use this as a filler.
WPT magazine have a freeroll with a GUKPT seat up for grabs,usually a lottery so dont expect too much out of this.
Punters Lounge have a Bounty game on Pokerstars (who have set up a home game online club,great idea imo).

Pokerstars WBCOOP2011

2011-01-13T18:48:00.002Z

not sure if i will get a token for this or not,hope so.
anyway,not a great start to the year,suckouts seem to be more constant,probably cos i am not playing as many games so more noticeable.
i would take a break but off to New York soon so will plod through this lean spell.

shite at blogging

2010-10-14T20:10:00.002+01:00

the year so far has been okay, just finished playing in my biggest buy-in in the UK that being the GUKPT Brighton Leg,£1070 buy in. won this seat by winning the Bluff Europe Magazine Freeroll.got a couple of hundred quid on top as well.
off to Luton for my next Live game,the APAT Pro League,a £250 buy in which again i won ealier this year in winning the Central European PLOmaha Championship with APAT.

my 1st blog post this year - jeez

2010-05-30T18:53:00.002+01:00

can`t believe it has been so long since posting here.
i will make this a regular thing.
playing a few games tonight,will write later on how i do.

wow

2009-07-11T21:44:00.002+01:00

not really been in the mood to play poker this week as the mother-in-law has just passed away,but as i had a couple of hundred dollars in Full Tilt,i had a go at the $1/$2 Hi/Lo cash tables.
couldnt believe it,in 4 hands i had made $260,looks like she is watching over me :-)

on my home

2009-07-03T14:00:00.003+01:00

well that is another Vegas adventure over and now at Las Vegas Airport on my home.
to ay it has been profitable is an understatement.
played 3 tourneys and cashed in 2.
played 2 cash tables and cashed in both.
i hope now that i have proved to some out there that i can actually play this game.
i must admit i was totally in the zone on Day 1 and the poker gods smiled on me,for which i thank them. i am a great believer in karma so i must be doing something right.
it was good to meet up with some of the punters lounge regulars, Ubermonkey,Morlspin,Adetrick(who was very unlucky when his KK ran into KK and the other guy flushed,gutting),Paul Ross,MattH,Jeffers and Mcarthur.
if anyone is in Vegas at all they have to check out The Range Steakhouse in Harrah`s Hotel,probably the best steak i have ever had.

happy days

2009-07-01T18:03:00.002+01:00

well it has been a few days in Vegas now and i have played the $1500 Event 54 finishing 294th for $2769, well pleased with that as so far there has been less than 150 Brits cashing at the WSOP this year.
followed up by finishing 6th in an $80 tourney for $198 to go with the $220 i won on the $1/$2 cash tables.
i have 2 days left in Vegas now so will play a couple more while i am on a hot streak

a long journey

2009-06-28T03:35:00.002+01:00

well after a very long journey,i made it to Vegas,had an extra 2 hour wait at Charlotte so didnt get in to Vegas til very late at night.all in all from leaving my front door to entering my room at Harrah`s it took 24 hours.
Registered for Mondays $1500 buy-in Event 54 then met up briefly with Damatrix and wished him luck in his game today.
just chilled out in the hotel,watched a couple of films and played a bit of online poker.
i have had an offer from a new forum starting up asking me to be their forum amdassador as such,playing as a bounty in the weekly games and possible sponsorship for ECOOP,WSOP,WSOPE and Irish Open. sounds promising

early night tonight

2009-06-25T18:22:00.002+01:00

fly out tomorrow for Las Vegas to play in Event 54 of the WSOP on Monday.
had an email from a guy i met about 18 months ago at the PokerPlayerMagazine Invite at the Loose Cannon,he is going over at the same time so we are gonna meet up for a couple of bevvys and i will introduce him to some of the other lads i am meeting.

Sunday 21st June

2009-06-21T17:49:00.003+01:00

playing Apat online league of which i am the Brighton poker club Captain.finished 18th when my AA against 77 with A/7/rag on flop followed by rag on turn then he hits his one outer for Quads,still he did then go on to win the tourney.

2009-06-20T21:49:00.004+01:00

cant believe it has been 6 months since i last posted in my blog,note to self,must do better.
well what has happened so far this year,not a lot apart from winning a package to the WSOP this year,many thanks to Punters Lounge and Stan James Poker.
the prize was a $1500 buy in and $750 cash. how did i win it? by having the best score of 7 games out of 12 in a league system run by by PL.
A big thanks to Morlspin who organised this with StanJamesPoker.
i fly out in 6 days time and i will endeavour to keep this blog updated,not that anyone reads it,.
had a few NLHE wins this year but not big amounts. Kept my top goalscorer title on PokerUtd which is a feat in itself.
also won my 1st Razz and Omaha tourneys this year as well.

last weekend went up to Dusk Till Dawn poker club in Nottingham for the Punters Lounge WSOP ....Omaha and Hold`em. both to be play on the Saturday.
decided to go up on the Friday to play in the £85 Freezeout as a warmer and finished 7th of 61 runners for £184. well done to Graeme (Morlspin) who won it for about £1600.
finished 18th in the Omaha which wasnt bad as it was my 1st live game in this format and 44th in the Hold`em when i couldn`t outplay my aggressive nemesis Fenners.
totally enjoyable weekend and look forward to going up again

also gonna be playing the PokerTrillion affiliates freeroll as a keep busy back up.

got to the 3rd break.....
had been card dead for ages,every time i go to raise to try steal someone beat me to it . i get 10/10 and felt it was time to make a move if i was going to get anywhere near the money..so pot raise and BB pushes pack,if i fold i am in trouble so pushed back,,he has A/A the times this happens i should know by now,i have gone out so many times when the BB has had A/A...still did enjoy the tournament and didnt feel nowhere near out my depth...shame that 2 more players hadnt regged as 18 would have been paid and i might have changed the way i played that last hand..
oh by the way i went out 34th of 99

PokerUtd win

2008-08-11T18:51:00.002+01:00

it was the 1st game of the new season and another challenge to keep my top scorer title.
off to a cracking start as with 30 players and an $11 buy in the payout was top 3 and $250 for the winner,which just so happened to be me ;-)
so next sunday i have a bounty on me which will be interesting.

also finished 3rd in the RaisetheRiver league game 2,was chip leader at one time but my A/Q was done by A/A

€150 tourney freeroll on poker.co.uk

2008-08-05T23:09:00.002+01:00

won this tonight,hitting a good bit of form the last 2 weeks

2008-07-16T19:39:00.002+01:00

played the €150 private tourney with gambling.co.uk forum on poker.co.uk and won it.
hopefully this is the start of a +ev time after a couple of months of -ev.
also finished 14th in the affiliates freeroll on poker trillion,didnt make one mistake throughout and the only thing that blighted me was being bluffed off a big hand but not hitting the flop so folded my A/Qo and he showed 3/4 clubs with 2 clubs on the flop

been a long since i wrote here

2008-07-06T19:11:00.004+01:00

hadn`t realised just how long it has been since i wrote anything here,mind you not to much to mention anyway poker-wise.
got my 1st Royal Flush the other day and revenge in a way on the fish i did it to.he had earlier called my preflop raise of pocket 6`s,the flop came down and i hit my 6 for trips but 2 diamonds also on the board,i bet heavy and he goes all in with 10/3 Diamonds WTF???? anyway he hit and i am down a fair bit,on this particular hand though he minimum raised which i called,anyway what with hitting 2 spades on the flop i decide to gamble and pushed all-in and he turns over A/A DOH!!!!!!
anyway i have the last laugh

it is the PokerUtd Champions final tonight so time for some serious play as i really want to win this.
will also be playing on Pokerstars,the Boris Becker Wimbledon special

2008-03-06T17:05:00.002Z

Virgin Poker Festival

2008-02-18T22:43:00.003Z

i am very happy tonight,after running bad with cards just lately a bit of good news at last,,,VirginPoker are having another festival in April in Newcastle and i have just qualified to play through The Daily Punt forum exclusive.
hit the final table with a very short stack and got lucky when i had to push with A/2 against J/J and hit the ace i needed,it kept me in the game and then i took out my mate Ed with A/K to his pocket pair and then from there went on to win,,my winning hand was style as well with a Full House.
it is going to be good to see some old and new friends while i am there

2008-02-11T19:20:00.000Z

have been running quite bad this week until last night,finished 5th in the pokerutd matchday league and 6th in the virgin v-points sat.winning a place in the final and about $30 as well

my 1st sponsored cash out

2008-02-02T09:43:00.001Z

went to the Grosvenor last night to play the £10 + £5 bounty,re-buy and found they had changed it to a £5 re-buy
i was thinking it was gonna be more of donk-fest than normal but was pleasantly surprised that it turned out otherwise.
we started off with 800 chips and blinds 25/50.
there were 50 runners.
i must admit i had won one hand up to about 10 minutes before the add-on and cogscoine from raisetheriver forum came and sat at my table,and then my luck changed.
starting after the break with 8k in chips and a prize fund of just over £1100 after about 150 re-buys and i cant remember how many add-ons (not all me i will have you know ).
the poker was good and banter very friendly on our table and was enjoying the evening emmensely.
eventually we got broken up and the field went down very quickly.
on the bubble i got my biggest slice of luck,now i hadnt hit any top pair all evening and didnt in this hand:
cant remember the blinds but something like 300/600.
we are down to 5 players on each table,
i am utg and limp in with 5/5 ,all fold round to the BB
flop is A/5/4 with 2 Diamonds and 1 Heart,
i check, he raises and i push all-in (i have him covered) thinking he has hit the Ace with either a 10 or J...he calls,
how wrong i was, he had 2/3 for the flopped straight
i was gutted to say the least...
anyway the turn brings out the last 5 woohoo
to see the change in facial expressions between us 2 must have been a sight..poor guy walks away with £10 from the prize fund as agreed by all the players and i think he went straight to the bar.
after that we all went to the F/table and my chip stack went up and down like a yo-yo,and eventually went out with A/J when the other called with K/9 and hit a 9 on the turn.
i finished 6th for £60 and a very enjoyable night out and got in about 2.30am

2008-01-27T18:58:00.000Z

have the weekly Pokerutd league game on tonight,although i have no fixture i will be playing for the cash..
playing for Mad Duke(a punters lounge member)in Virgin VRoll Final,if i win anything get 60% of it..
also got the weekly Bloggerment game on Pokerstars (password donkament)ay 21.00pm.
also on Virgin i am in the EMS league game,although it may be as a sitout.depends how well i do for Mad Duke.

2008-01-21T19:55:00.000Z

finished 2nd in pokerutd league last night,had gone down to 400 chips at one time but fought my way back to chipleader and then played very aggressively, maybe too much so,but i was enjoying my game and just love playing dangerously at times,the result now puts me back as top goalscorer......
finished 6th (the bubble) in the ukff league game,happy enough though as i was playing good poker imo and felt so confident even with so many games being played at the same time

2008-01-20T16:27:00.000Z

busy night tonight,i am beginning to dread sundays as they always seem to be the nights with the most games i like playing.
i recently joined another forum which is very eye-catching from the off,(Eat My Stack Poker) and they have a new league season starting tonight on Virgin,so going to give that a go,i have my regular Pokerutd Matchday league game which is by far my favourite and most profitable game.
on Betfair there is the Annette15 game which i am going to play a bit looser than normal and see how that works.
Also tonight is the new season league game on UK Football Fans forum,although i only started playing with them last October i am in the Premiership league for this year as i had some good results including winning the 1st one i played.
the other game for tonight is the Virgin v-points game,the best i have finished was 4th in the old format,nowadays not as many players so should suit my game as i play better with the less players there are.

2008-01-16T06:48:00.000Z

not too bad a week so far this week,on sunday finished 4th in the pokerutd matchday league and last night won $150 playing for a seat into Betfair`s $100k tourney on this sunday by finishing 2nd.

2008-01-06T15:06:00.000Z

not a lot to speak of in the last week,played on Mansion in the $1.10 with $20080 added.top 100 players got paid and over 3500 players.after what i have told was a bad call of 300 chips preflop (10% of my stack) with A/8 Diamonds and eventually winning the hand with a straight i go on to finish in 62nd place for $47,
also had my 1st live game of the year at the Grosvenor in Brighton,a £10 re-buy with £5 bounty,got through the re-buy period and was sitting with J/J and 11 BB`s so pushed and got called by Q/10 clubs and BB calls with A/A,i hit the Jack on the flop but the River brings out an Ace,was only my 4th re-buy game so getting to grips with the way people play.
also lost my lead on Pokerutd as Spannerjago finishes 2nd to get a 1 goal lead on the year so far
gonna be playing the Pokerutd league game tonight but as it is cup weekend it will be playing for cash only,also gonna play on Virgin tonight for the 1st time in ages,UK football fans has a new league starting tonight with a new structure,although i only started playing with them in September i will be playing in the Championship league due to the good results i have had.
the final game for tonight will be the Bloggerment on Pokerstars,open to anyone who has a Blog.the password is "donkament" and all are welcome

2007-12-15T18:51:00.000Z

just got back and only 14 players this time
think only 1 player went out before the 1st break,all very tight with most raises being folded,,was sitting in seat 5 with my mate ben in seat 3 and mcgin(another online colleague) in seat 6..
1st hand after the break i raise with a/q and mcgin is all in as he is fairly short stacked,,he turns over k/k ,flop doesnt help but turn gives me the ace ,sorry mate,,,
then fairly quickly we hit final table.....i am bb with j8 and manage to see the flop with 2 other players,board shows j/6/7 and i raise, caller folds and sb raises all in with a call for me of a couple of hundred and he turns over j6 turn is a 5 and i am praying for 4 or 9 but another 7 hits on flop.....
this leaves me with about 1800 chips with blinds now 400/800,
couple of hands later i have pocket 7`s and go all in ,,bb calls with k/10,,
flop is 8/8/8 .turn k and river doesnt help,,out in 7th...
was really pleased with my game today,made some good judgement raises and folds...

Hi Player

Congratulations to last weeks tournament winner lcfcgaz1. His win gave him 4 goals and resulted in Lincoln City beating Chester 4-0. He wins a Match Day Token for this fine performance.

teaulcsg was right up there again with 2nd spot. His hat-trick gave Brighton a 3-0 win over Luton and puts him on a net-busting 27 goals so far this season.

ukdobbin slots 2 home for his 3rd place finish. Giving Mansfield a 2-0 win over Macclesfield and taking ukdobbin to joint 1st in the League Two Top Goal Scorer race with BABYSHAM

Watch out for double fixtures/double goals in the Championship this week.

Sweep:

teaulcsg picked himself to finish highest in last weeks sweep and his 2nd place finish was good enough to secure him the Match Day Token prize.

This week the sweep is to predict the number of runners in the Match Day Tournament. Please reply to this email with your guess.Closest wins the Token.

Bounty:

ukdobbin once again wins the Match Day Token for knocking out the Bounty. This week the bounty is on lcfcgaz1.

Star Player:

We wish the best of luck to Top Goal Scorer teaulcsg who will be representing POKER UTD in an APAT satellite on the 10th November at the Grosvenor,Brighton.

His impressive results have lead to us sponsoring him in future live events, where hopefully he can replicate the tremendous form he has shown in the league tournaments.

Hopefully he can get some results and we can build up our relationship to include bigger tournaments and more sponsored players.

Good luck at the tables!

Hi Player

Congratulations to PLhen who won $100 in last weeks Match Day Tournament. That's a very impressive 2 wins in 3 weeks. PLhen's Arsenal team mates DanPL and Moonboy133 win a Match Day Token as well for turning up...

In second place was last season's POKER UTD Champion spannerlj. Showing some of the form that took him all the way to the top.

SuperSubMorty's 'any 2 cards will do' policy seems to be working, as he secured third place.

slievesnacht and FONZARELLI also managed to finish in the money. Heeeeeeeeeeeeey :)

Last week was quiet for fixtures, so not many goals were scored. Thankfully this week there are goal scoring opportunities aplenty. Click HERE to see this weeks fixtures.

Match of the Day:

Sparks are going to fly this week as Brighton clash with Leeds. Currently 1st and 2nd in the POKER UTD League 1.

Brighton's formidable line up of teaulcsg (23 goals) and oddsoxzmazz (3 goals) will be facing the potential trio of talent that is Leeds. Comprising of AvonGirlLUFC (7 goals), runadrum9 (3 goals) and B3ZZY (1 goal). Whoever finishes the highest will guarantee top spot for their team.

Sweep:

Congratulations to danbury who came pretty close in predicting the score in last weeks sweep. His guess of a 14-12 England victory over France in the Rugby World Cup wins him a Match Day Token. This week it's the same deal. Guess the score for the World Cup Rugby Final as England face the mighty South Africa. Closest gets a Match Day Token. Correct score wins $100 bonus.

I know rugby is a bit 'off topic' and this will be the last rugby sweep, but lets face it, at the moment there is a lot more to cheer about than in the football. If only it was the FIFA World Cup final. One day...

Bounty:

Last weeks bounty on teaulcsg was claimed by Fadds. So a pat on the back to him ;)

This week a Match Day Token will be awarded to anyone who knocks PLhen out in this Sunday's POKER UTD League Match Day Tournament at 8.30 pm.

Who are ya?

One last thing. When you have logged into the poker software there is a button you can click next to the 'EXIT' button called 'MY ACCOUNT".

If you click on the 'MY ACCOUNT" button you will enter the Cashier section. On the left you will see a menu. Click the last option marked 'Settings'.

A box will then come up called 'Displayed location' This is the space for you to type in the football team you are representing.

Tick the third box down marked either 'Football Team' or 'Other location' (depending on when you downloaded the software). Either way, type in the football team you are representing in the leagues, then click save changes.

Now whenever another player clicks on your name when you are sitting at the table, the team you are representing will be shown. More importantly though, is that you can find out what team every other player is representing by clicking on them.

Wear your badge with pride!

Hi Player

He's only gone and done it again! His win last week was his second in a row and puts him even further ahead in the Top Goal Scorers table. Very well played teaulcsg.
His win netted him a record $94, a Match Day Token for him and his team mates (him) and a precious 4-0 Brighton win over Yeovil. Not bad for quiet Sunday night in!
They'll be a special prize for teaulcsg if he can do the triple and win this week. As an extra twist there will be a Match Day Token bounty on his head. Knock him out and win the Token...
But look who has shot up to second place in the Top Goal Scorers table. Non other than the reigning POKER UTD Champion spannerlj. His 3rd place finish last week netted him 4 goals in total as Plymouth had a double fixture. 2-0 win over Stoke and 2-0 against QPR. To view the Top Goal Scorers table click HERE
To see your teams fixtures for this week click HERE

New signings:
Welcome to new player 2leggs representing Spurs. His goal last week gave them a 1-0 over Bolton and lifted them off the bottom to the middle of the Premiership.
Also new player SuperSubMorty representing Liverpool, has been creating quite a stir in the midweek Match Day qualifiers. His 'any two cards will do' attitude has baffled quite a few of the other players, but has taken him close to winning.

Hot ones:
This Sunday's hot fixtures are West Ham V Arsenal who are currently 6th and 2nd in the Premiership. And Gillingham V Leeds who are currently 3rd and 2nd in League One.

Sweep
Congratulations to last weeks winner FL1NTOFF who correctly picked the 3-0 score line in the England Women's World Cup Q/F against USA Women. He wins a Match Day Token.
This Sunday sees the final between Brazil and Germany. So a Match Day Token is up for grabs to whoever can guess the correct score. Answers on a postcard please (or you can just reply to this email)
Also remember that the Match Day Shoot out is on again this Saturday at 12 noon. It offers you a last chance to bag a Match Day Token for Sunday's tournament, if you didn't win one in the mid week freerolls. Or, for the winners it offers a chance to add another token to your collection. The Tokens are valid for every Match Day tournament this season, so grab them while you can.

Good luck at the tables!

wsop update

2007-05-23T19:28:00.001+01:00

latest from chris at pokersatellites

Alan,

I have confirmed that $2,000 has been deposited into your Pokersatellites account. The prize package is $6500 in WSOP buy-ins as well as $2,000 travel money. The company that set up the tournament put the wrong amount on the tournament lobby. You can visit Pokersatellites.com to see the correct amount of the promotion. I am sorry about the confusion regarding the prize package amount. Unfortunately this was out of our control.

You will be staying at the Rio Hotel and Casino, site of the WSOP. Your room is included in the prize package providing you wear Pokersatellites gear while participating in the tournaments. I will be there personally to buy you into the three tournaments and secure your lodging.

If you should make it to the second day of any of the three tournaments, you will have the option of receiving the cash equivalent for the following day’s tournament or you can be entered into another tournament with the same buy-in amount.

When you arrive at the Rio on the 14th of June, go to the Hotel lobby and call me on my mobile phone so that I can get you the room key and make arrangements to meet you the following day to buy you into the Friday tournament. Please print this e-mail and take it with you to Vegas.

Thanks, Chris. Pokersatellites

2006-10-17T19:09:00.000+01:00

well tonight i am only going to play hendon mob league tonight as in having no points in the sporting odds champ/league there is little point playing.
played like a right muppet last night in the titan poker pl omaha h/l and only lasted about 25 minutes,1st hand got bullied into folding by slapdash and lost over half my chips as i wasnt prepared to go out 1st but in all fairness i should have gone for it..next time

2006-10-15T16:32:00.000+01:00

bloody hell its sunday again already,well after a night out last night with wife and friends its back to the poker again tonight,there is the champs league on sporting odds which has been very disappointing this month with no points at all,and the mansion pokergod of which i am still in the top 50 so far, so a good result tonight would consolidate my position and ultimate aim to get in the top 30

busy night tonight

2006-10-08T17:21:00.000+01:00

as usual a busy nights poker,, have the forum challenge and hope to do better for punters lounge tonight especially as more money s involved,,, also have the mansion pokergod tourney where i am on the leaderboard at the moment,,there is the aston villa tickets tourney on as well so a money win again would be nice,,as back-up there is the virgin v-points freeroll and the one i am going to miss out on is the champs league on sporting odds as spods is playing up on my laptop

sporting odds champ league leg 3

2006-10-05T19:10:00.000+01:00

hendon mob and champs league

2006-10-03T17:02:00.000+01:00

well, here we go again in sporting odds champion league,see if i can make it hat-trick of hitting the prize money at the end of the month,best finish is 7th,so hope to improve upon that considerably.

sunday 1st october 2006

2006-10-01T10:02:00.000+01:00

another busy sunday night,,my main game will be the mansion $215 final where the top 2 get a $7000 package to las vegas which i qualified for ealier this week by playing a $22 qualifier and finishing 2nd.
will also be playing the mansion poker god series where i finished 8th last week.
there is also the sporting odds champs league where i have finished in the money last 2 months running but will try harder this month to win the league...
my back up game is the virgin v-points freeroll,usually my 10 year old son plays the beginning of this before he goes to bed and being the excellent poker player he is he usually leaves me a good few chips to play with..

sporting odds have cancelled toights champ league which is a shame....

finished 15th in mansion pokerdome,played ultra tight and seemed to work okay but when i needed to loosen up a bit i didn`t get a decent hand to play with,it was like playing a live game so good experience
