MBN

YO !!! Well what have i been upto since last blog..... hmmmm I went out last Thursday for a messy night in Tiger Tiger Fortunately my cousin had done some sort of Bullshit VIP list on Facebook so we got in with no ques or student ID woop woop . Obv had a very very messy night.
Played sum pool also for 1st time in ages and im sure i play better when i dont play for ages : )
So i think im gonna make an effort to play a little more in the near future.... tho i lost to Frankie 9-10 other night which is gay as i was 9-6 up sigh.... ( im such a fish ) Nah Franks a really good player and our matches are usually very close. The guy broke and dished 3 outa 4 frames he broke off so obv he is pretty decent :D
On Saturday it was the PKR high-roller event which i usually play if im about. So Tigerwing said his GF was away so i came round his house obv i insta called round a pizza hut ( lush ???)
Simon managed to satellite into it so we was both playing which was cool. Long story short i placed 3rd for $6250 which is very nice and only my 2nd win in a pkr mtt of over 5k had to ship 10% to Simon tho but thts cool like to swop %s with sum players.
Right recently people are telling me how much iv achieved in poker! This got me thinking i have seriously won alot from poker. Im like 60% cashgame player 30% mtt player and like 10% stt player. In all of these fields i have crushed tbh. While my results on sharkscope arnt brill for pkr tbh tho they have missed out my 4th place in Masters for 7.5k but other sites won nice sums, tilt up like 10k, party up like 22k ish. stars losing run shitty but not played much ther for mtts. Iv played very little live poker. But chopped a live donkament with TheSqueeze for like 5,000 pounds 4th in a Vegas 1k mtt for $47,500. I have never ever played a GUKPT which is shocking really. Played like 2 side events at the Brighton leg last year haha. I Have kept my feet on the ground and kept the cash grind up mostly with mtts on the side when i feel like taking a shot lol
Now its kinda cool tht people respect me in the poker world as i think respect is one of the most important things in life ( along with manners haha just for u Dad tht one )
One thing tho i wish i could achieve is being a sponsored pro so i could play live mtts. Very jelous of karls sick deals and staking etc he has ( FuckingShitAssMonkeyDisco ) haha Now he got his sponsor ship when he prolly didn't deserve it tbh. Long story short he got into game ran like god for a few months won literally everything he entered incl PKR LIVE. And boom he is set up for a couple years of free mtts. Thing is tho this guy is one guy who deserves some luck if anyone in the world does. Iv touched on this before but he is a top man/friend.
Anyways back to the rant. Thing is now Karl plays super sick in mtts making lesser mistakes and being the most agro piece of shit on the mtt online/live circuit :-) basically a really really good player 10x the player he was this time last year and now he runs bad cant win anything for months...... fuckin people dont understand anything about mtt variance ( hence why i dont fork out thousands for live/ online events maybe??? )
This point was just showing u tht any Joe Bloggs can win a few mtts and get to be a PKR/any site pro. This is not ago atal at Karl infact quite the opposite more an appraisal.
Im pleased to say he won a 30r last night on FTP for 7k and has had a few close ones l8ly so hope he starts running good again and crushes. Main event would be nice in Vegas as we will have alot of people in our house playing it ! Some deep runs please???
I cannot fucking wait till Vegas im so fucking excited :) So many good times to be had weeee
Other news my nan is ill in hospital which is very sad/ hope she recovers soon as possible.
My Mum has moved into her new flat needed money for new windows so she asked if i could lend i this got me thinking ........ A month ago she stopped doin my washing for me which is fuckin BS as like fuckin shit i wanna do it, I used to pay her also BTW. So i not had any1 to do it for a while so i said ill lend u the money if u start doing my washing again haha. Obv she agreed 1-0 to me...... or maybe she stopped doing it thn asked for the money knowing i would say if only u do my washing sickkkkkkkk Level Mum wp......Thats like 26 betting me allin pre with the Ironing board and the Ariel

Im contemplating going out tonight..... maybe play some pool and get messy thn hit the Route66 for some classic tunes just like my Fav mtt final table song :P



Ok laters guys ill update soon i hope o BTW pkr BR upto $43,200 :)

Graphes and Messyness


Ok some people asked me to add my Hold em manager graph. So i decided i will be now posting graphs + pics etc. This graph is for the last 2 months in which i have only played 16,000 hands on PKR.
Played some mtts and rush poker etc on other sites. but probably not play more thn 20k altogether in cash games.
As u can see i have ran decent and im currently running above allin EV which hasn't happened before on a graph iv had :) after running 37k below
EV on my downswing i will take this +EV with very big gratitude.
So i havnt been playing much latly and results seem to be SICK good. Add my 23k score on party and 7k more of wins ther makes me in the last 2-3 months banked up a total of around $60,000 :-) My pkr roll has gone from 5k to 37k as of now in this time period and i feel like my game is always improving. I will tho be trying to put effort in to 2 table say a couple of tuff 5-10 games and 100% focus on all my decisions instead of auto piloting. Just as playing with better/tuff people can only do wonders for your game (if u are competent and not retarded)

Now iv kinda broken my i think i cant be assed to go out and get drunk often statement lol
Iv been out a hell of alot ( well for my clubbing/drinking standards ) Its been so much fun got a few great m8s to go out with Luke and Dan mainly. they love to dance/ get messy as fuck (drunk) I have sum pics of last couple nights out i will post. Iv been dragged along tonight it looks like by a girl i met the other night, story goes like this....... Myself , George and Lewis turn up to Tiger Tiger around 11pm drunk as skunks but very aware of whats going on etc. We new tht every1 our age was in that club and just had to get in..... But the queue was HUGE apparently 2 hours long lol so i decided to do abit of the james666 and walk to from and try and pay the bouncers to get in. So up we strolled convo went like this

ME" hey man is ther any way we can get in now"

Bouncer " yes u have to queue with your student ID"

ME" do be serious look at the line were never get in in time, hows about i pay u to let us 3 in? Ill give u 300 pounds around $500 for just us 3 only"

Bouncer" sorry we cant do tht its unfair on ppl tht have queued"

ME " can i speak with the manager plz this is retarded u let ppl in for free and not 3 guys willing to pay 300 quid"

Meat head bouncer "I am the manager"

ME' yes im sure u are m8 loool"

Anyways we walked to the smoking area upstairs which had a door to try and bribe him up ther. but i met these ppl i knew ther smoking And Annelise who i knew of but never spoke to. she saw i had no stamp and proceeded to stamp her onto my hand ! BOOM it worked and in a went with them :) haha free entry no cue boom. so big thanks. to show my thanks i bought like 40 double vodka redbulls got a table and sat and drank/danced the night away :) Class night for the record incredible smashed finished the night of with a cheeky kiss with Annelise and a hot dog out side.
Soo now she is dragging me out tonight for sum more antics and drunkenness with all her girl m8s , o know mist of thm so will be uber cool.

Here are sum pics of last couple nights out
















Well i imagine tonight is gonna be messy as fuck aswell. Just hope my poorly body can cope with all this partying. Guess its good prep work for the 6 weeks in Vegas with the Lads booom.

P.S the Arsenal VS Barca game i went to was fucking sick good. Thnka s bunch Jake u Legend.

My mate Mogwa1 aka james from Pompey is staying for 5 weeks with us in the poker pad in Los Vegas ( stoked much ..... ermmm yeh? )


Have fun people and GL at the tables and in life.

BINK, UFC, Arsenal vs Barca, Vegas flights

Well last Sunday i decided i would try another site for a couple of Sunday mtts and my choice was Party Poker. Now this is where i 1st ever deposited money as i 1st played poker so kinda felt like turning back the years. I played a $100 speed mtt bust tht . played the 300k - $215 buyin party Sunday major. Made it all the way to the final table past 1441 ppl we ended up doin a deal according to chip counts. I got $23,200 so was pretty happy with tht obv :) I only dealt as the blind were now gonna be 50k-100k and i had 1 million so 10 bbs did nt seem like to much fun and i had an average stack so decided to be a nit and deal which is a result im very happy i did...... Now this is mainly to the feeling u get when u bust a big mtt deep. Your simply NEVER really happy unless ur a loser in life and take coming 2nd etc as youv won.... kinda like schools in England teach " its not the winning tht counts its the taking part" seriously WTF this is the most insanly retarded thing ever..... Maybe this is the reason why we get so owned at most sports etc...... just a thought.
Weeeeee as i write this i just been invited to Arsenal vs Barcelona on Wednesday night in London (brag)
Right back to the poker thought summin about never being happy unless u win the tourney. now in dealing I secured myself a nice sum of money obv but the thing like i said is the fact i have zero feeling of disappointment which is worth alot of LIFE EV imo.

I at last took my phone to vodaphone to fix it lol They fixed it now i just gotta go pick it up....... wonder how long this will take me haha
Myself and Karl booked the Vegas flights weeee we booked a day earlier thn we planned on goin as we got 190 pounds of each...... Our flight is with Virgin, premium Economy class cost us 1163 pounds each. We spent this much as were lanky sons of bitchs and get alot of leg room this way guaranteed plus the class of people is higher + u get to see famous people alot too haha

Went out on the town with my boy Luke Friday night again. Epic night once agen we hav so much fun and farrrr to many drinks. we even saw a live guy singing Oasis, Kooks, Razorlight etc was Fucking amazing tbh best live act i seen. So beign balla we got a bottle of wine and sum fat ass glasses and drank while dancing and singing to some awesome classics :)
We thn headed to Tiger Tiger to chase the Hedgehog / Milfs ....... all i can say is what a night !!!!

Watched UFC this weekend i went 6-0 in predicting the fight outcomes., alsways nice when u bet on thm all aswell haha. nettin myself roughly $800 tho i put on $1000 on GSP , KO/TKO and the prick fiddled around and did what he had to do. Fucking GSP u fuckin shit head ass fuck finish a fight please? your more safe thn a seat belt in a car tht has no1 in. take some chances u fuck. Massive props to Shane Carwin who beat the shit out frank "im a cunt" mirr
Mirr is weird looked great in last 2 fights thn in this one shocking? got his ass handed to him on a plate loved it. now Carwin just has to beat my most hated fighter of all time Brock "the cock" lesner. O yeh and one thing cant remember names but a pre fight on the card anyways. A guy slipped a dude got him in a ankle lock the dude tapped out and the prick continued to YANK away for a good 3-5 seconds after the poor man had tapped, Sick fuckin scum bag...... now the dude needs surgery to fix his knee.

P.S
Congrats to Craig for binking a WSOP ME seat 1st try must be nice buddy mbn.
I Will also be putting more effort into satelliting in this year as made no effort in years past.

Having hair cut and high lighted tomoz in a nice salon looking forward to tht.

The crazy world

Wasup the crazy world ? Well what hav I been upto thn since my last post?

Well Had a few messy nights out on the town gettin extreamly drunk and dancing my ass off lol

One thing tht put me in super tilt this week was the boiler broke all of a sudeden. It was a top notch brand new system a year ago. I tryed calling someone to come and fix it after like 10 phone calls i realised tht no1 couyld be bothered it seemed and wanted me to wait like 3 days ! WTF i was willing to pay but no1 would help me...... SO i decided to take matters into my own hands and started to browse the internet forums on boiler repairs loool Anyways after an hour of searching i found some great material which seemed to be on my problem :) So i took my new knowledge downstairs to tackle to boiler a few turns of stuff and sum magic hands and BOOM it worked again ...... ( Im So PRO hehe ) Well anyways We now hav a leaking pipe upstairs which in order to fix need a plasterer to cut a hole in the kitchen roof to reach the broken pipe......

more costs sigh. Also the hoover broke today so will be buyin a new dyson :) im guessing this is the most balla hoover u can get.

The Tattoo on my arm needs to be sorted still ..... finding a date for the 1st stage of my sleeve. All this needs to be done before Vegas June 1st

On the poker front not been playing much this month just not been in the mood too much.
I did however hav to deposit $2,250 on ftp so i could pay Someone My share of the Vegas house.
Soooo i put on 3k paid the man his money and tryed to spin up on rush poker. My acc balance is now at 3.8k so a nice hefty 3k profit in a couple weeks of average 45 mins a day probs lol so been running pretty good on the whole. tho i managed to lose QQ on Q,8,5 vs 55 the 1 outer 5 turned for $600 pot at 1/2 but pretty standard to wont complain too much.....actually ran KK into AA the last 3 times pretty brutal but i really do like the whole rush poker makes a nice change + can play alot of hands very quickly. LAG ftw :)
My pkr acc is slowly creaping up also Just broke the $30,000 mark.
Karl the gayer is doing well this week in mtts playing great he says and binked a few final tables which is nice. hopefully he can hav a huge insane heater before Vegas thn PWN the WSOP.
All in all im really really happy about the way iv come bak from the downswing the last few months. Turned it around 100% now and bak to winning ways once again.

Ahh really wanted to mention one thing my dad and mother taught me was Mannors my dads fav saying to me was "Manners Makes Thy Man"
The other night the subject of Manners came up on our taxi home ( very very drunk at he time). Now im a huge fan of PLEASE AND THANKYOUs they cost exactly nothing but show people around tht ur not a scum bag. Like for instance when ur driving and u hav to wait for another car to pass they flash their lights at you or put their hand up. it a small thing but it really makes me fuckin pissed off when they dont, How can sum ppl forget or are their ppl tht are really tht plain ignorant???
This brings me on the the Swearing thing...... Now i love to swear in fact my Favorite word in the whole world is actually FUCK ! its just such a god damn brilliant word.... so so so many different contexts for this Godly word. What i dont get is how the FUCK can ppl get offended when u swear we all know the words exist ! If u swear at someone its a big differance ie "your a fuckin shit taxi driver u piece of shit cunt" now obv thts offensive. But how can ppl get annoyed when u use the words "WOW what a fucking top night out, Im sooo pissed"
Am i the only one in the world tht sees the 1st one is offensive and the 2nd is fine????
Seriously tho this is the modern world now. swearing is the least of our worlds problems i mean just ask BONO...... this guys tilts me so hard

Anyways im off gl at the tables and in life

The returner

Our cat Tilly has loved her new home ( our house ) always cruising around head held high loving life. It has been great having her around.... She never goes out side for long periods of time usually like 30 mins max, then to come running back in looking for sum food hehe. At the weekend she cruised out the cat flap and i noticed she did nt come bak for the whole day :( This was out of character and with the really cold nights we hav was a little worried ....... the next day came and still no sign of her. We all started to worry quite abit now by the time it got to 11pm things did nt look so good? But then....
she came running through the cat flap and demanded some food hehe. She looked genuinely pleased to be home, purring and loving the attention. We can only speculate what she got upto in these couple of days..... the most likely of which is defo, Went to the cat market stole 10 pounds of CATNIP jumped on a plane to Greece to see Winston the cat. They probably cruised around doing shots and beers and danced the night away. Quickly then Jumped on a late night flight back and boom she was back and safe in the house just in time for Dinner.
All in all Very relived she is back home in one piece.

Update on the poker for the month of Feb.
I spun the $5,000 starting roll on pkr into $22,800 so a nice profit indeed. As for rakeback i received $480 which means i didn't play too much, Just game selected and played when i felt most poker like lol. Guess iv ran pretty good in the cash game sector as well as the HU stt's which im a huge winner in :) sharkscope says i own haha.
I played sum PLO cash games live ....... with 98% terrible players, they see every flop with everyhand for any amount pre..... really really clueless. Now i dont claim to be even semi good at plo but i know w good game when i see one. Tho im losin 900 pounds in a 1-1 game lol in last 2 sessions...... Iv ran horrible tho so w/e it will change i know.

Had a hugely fun drunken night on Monday so looool the whole night, i got to see my good friend James Green along with George peak, Dan Edler, Rease, Josh and Luke. Great night all in all. Tiger Tiger is defo the place to be on a Monday night.

Ahhh my Laptop is now fixed by Andy G which is tip top now yay so thanks man.
The Vegas house is sorted now and we hav agreed a price and dates from 1st June to 15th July.
pretty stoked tbh cannot wait..... I even bough sum new RayBans as i lost mine on a jet-ski in Thailand haha gotta love the sunglasses.... now All England needs it sum sun.

Just sent my brother to the Cafe to get me breakfast, this works out well as he gets to eat for free and i get to be a lazy prick and make no effort.

ahh breakfast has arrived gotta dash

Im back :) last 2 months ish

Ok long time since i last posted :) so what have i done in this last couple months?

- Setup my new house : OK i ll start with the house, my self Joe and Robert my 18 and 17 years old brothers have finished moving into my Dads old house :) It so far has been pretty decent with no arguing etc We hav our own room each mine being he biggest with my computer setup and tv setup needing the most room lol. They hav X-box and 47" TV downstairs. We decided to purchase Sky HD for 3 of the rooms in the house { my room, living room and Joe's room }This has been a great idea and i actually watch a little TV now...... I can watch the premier league darts and lots football matches too in lush HD quality, which for wot its worth is fucking great :)
We hav hired a cleaner tht comes for around 2 hours a week once on Monday and once on Friday, this has been working out well and only costs like 20 Pounds a week. The house is always pretty tidy and smells nice.

-Been arranging house for Vegas: Karl ( discomonkey) + myself have been looking into houses for the summer 6 weeks in Vegas !!! very exciting. We hav been looking at 9 bedroom places and may hav found a very nice one. Hopefully all goes well ill keep u posted on tht. I will be staying with 10 other poker players and friends.

- Had few losing months in poker: Ok onto some poker. Since i hav got back from Thailand the poker has been going terrible i ran 37k below EV in HM. This incl sum shot taking at 10-20 when games where great. But usual story for me incl losing hands such as AA vs KK aipf for 5,000 pot. set vs set etc. I understand these are all standard but seriously cut me a fucking break poker gods on shot taking. it would be nice to run good just one time i find the worlds juiciest game :(
Hence why i decided to buy an X-box and watch 4 seasons on prison break. But anyways i set myself a goal to get bak into the game this month and try and win 10k I withdrew from pkr and left myself 5k to spin up from. Playing 2/4 ,3/6 and 5-10. If i lost in a session a would deposit bak to 5k and start agen. I had to deposit 2k on the 2nd day i think because i went down to 2.8k I reset the bankroll because the last few months were vile literally losing every pot i played regardless of what i held..... I Had a losing mentality this point and wanted to start each session like it was a new life if i had lost the previous. Anyways this month i span my 4.6k starting day to what is now a couple weeks later to $17,657 so super stoked to be bak into winning ways, and the last few days actually ran pretty decent :) Long may it continue .....
PS plz can i ban myself from Pokerstars as this site hates me. Iv lost count of the $600's iv done in my life time for mtt's, stts, plo cash. it wont let me win anything every no matter what i play, stakes, games just lose lose lose...... time to quit the random $ ther?

- Betfair live in Austria: short summery, I went with Simon (Tigerwing) Jamie (SoooSick)
To Austria to play a crap shoot mtt 220 euro buyin. We bought packages off sum betfair players tht won thm the package was hotel for 2 nights and buyin for donkament. They was worth $700 but we bought thm for $400 :) Happy days !!! Trip was very tiring as I did nt get much sleep the beds were vile and mattress didn't suit me :( I played sum live cash game poker 2/5 euro blinds and won 475 also played in a 1/2 games and lost 80 the players were worst i ever played in a cash game, what makes it worse it they were taking it really seriously and playing Terrabad lol So they havn't even got the " Im drunk Excuse" hehe I did manage to get my hands on a 500 Euro note which i found fascinating as id never had one before and biggest note England has tht ppl use is a 50 lol so i felt pretty Balla!!! The food was pretty rank, best meal we had was Burger King ( twice ) lol teh promo girls a couple of thm looked like Men..... very disturbing indeed. Ok trip in all ended by a wanker cabbie charging us 44 pounds for a 10 min trip meh London cabbie wankers.

- Played some live tourneys at Big slick ( local live poker card room ) Won a few live donkaments in my time off from online poker won the monthly major. chopped HU at 7:30am for 1500 pounds each :)

-watched 4 seasons of Prison break

-Got a pet Cat : my mum moved house and i guess didn't have room for her ( tilly ) she is a wonderful addition to our house and wouldn't change having her for the world.

- Banged in a couple 180's at darts, and got a 41 break at snooker.

-Bought an X-box for myself so i can play Call of Duty (plus a new TV as my other one is in the lounge) So I decided to at last play COD ( call of duty ) having never ever played any of the games before i started a total noob, watched my brother rob playing he is really good so learned sum tactics etc off of him. I also watched sum pro's playing on Youtube for extra help etc for a faster learning experience :) kinda like joining a poker training website if u will. So i have been enjoying the game playing strictly online modes only. my favorite one being free for all. I have learned quick and getting better each day. ( not bad for a noob )

So Im back people and will start to blog again more frequently its 7.30 am atm so i better get sum sleep.
Peace of people at Good luck at the tables

Just WOW !!!!

Ok so the rise of Isilder1 on fulltilt continued this week when he nearly went broke and started a one tabling session on 50/100 plo he had just 1 buyin so $10,000 ended this epic session with $2.9 million across sum HU 500/1000 tables. EPIC
It seems this guy doesn't care about money has no fear of playing any1 any stakes anytime !
I mean anyone tht plays Ivey and PA hu at the same time on multiple tables deserves respect.
I have watched a fair few hours of his play and i must say i don't think any1 comes close to him at NLH HU play! he really is just on another level. His Relentless aggression is untouched by anyone. PS Durrrr got pwned and haha gutted u lost your money and u wont win it back off him.
So funny now to see tht durrrr is a 700k loser even with his 6.3 mill winnings at nlh and his 7mill losings at PLO....... hehe go Isilder1. Sooo Durrrr must be sick now he gave it away to players tht he cannot win it back off !!!!! Kudos Isilder1 ur my poker hero now, even if u are very deluded i think u deserve online player of the year for all u hav done! My advice would be to stick to NLH where u clearly OWN every1 at ! stay away from PA, Ivey, CTS, Townsend and Stinger at PLO where they are clearly better thn you at ! meh variance who knows.........???
I really hope this isn't the end for him as he is a massive talking point and has really re sparked the nose bleed games.
........... Tho he wasn't busto when he quit still had around 500k so who knows maybe there will be another run of crazy entertaining high stakes games !

Well today is the 1st part of moving into my house with my brother :) the locks got changed today which feels like the beginning of something good ! We plan to move in at the weekend if all goes according to plan ! I hav also been thinking about the bills etc, I worked out with the council tax, electric, water, waste, house insurance, sky and Internet it will cost us 400 pounds a month. so 50 quid a week each which is sweeeet. Just gotta buy food then ( takeaways hehe )

FTP have taken 6 days now and still not replied to my HH request or any of my emails....... apparently they hav worste customer support on net !!!! FML hurry up u idiots!

I played sum pool for money this week vs sum guys at the poker club. Im clearly better than thm in my eyes hehe but play so shit on the table cause its not the same as a normal county standard table..... anyways in a few matchs im about 160 quid up total so thts good. even tho i feel like i hav played fucking shocking tbh.

Also i may hav a staking deal in the works for mtt's on ftp ! hurry up with the hand historys ftp u pricks !

Long time no update

Well i hav been playing sum games on Ipoker this month with mixed results..... I was up $6k ish to now down $9k I think i am gonna play alot more solid on 5-10 ther from now on as ppl are stacking off so frickin light. I have run alful tho this week tbf tho so w/e. will change soon im sure. On pkr im actually up a little this month thanks to sum fish the last couple nights plus beating tiptop for a few buyins at 5-10 HU. My PLO game is comming on leaps and bounds, I just need to play solid Tag/nitty style and i will be a winner for sure. Playing on ipoker is sick because i get 55% rake back, which amounts to fucking loads at the end of the month if i put any amount of volume in.
p.s I did lose a like 3k at limit holdem Highstakes. meh w/e limit is great fun :)
I am currently up about $3,000 on betting on football over the last couple weeks. Im considering a big bet on Phil Taylor he is 2-1 on. But ther is no way any1 can beat him imo. the guys a fucking legend and unstoppable. Sooooo i might chuck a few thousand dollars on!!!!!!

On news tht doesn't involve poker it was My Dads funeral the other week and i am pleased to say it was a nice and respectful day on all accounts. My Auntie behaved and all parties got on well :)
My uncle has seen the will now also and apparently myself and my 2 brothers will get everything.
Will be nice tbh as we never got much from dad ever. As it stands atm i know he has at least 3 houses but 2 are with tenants. But...... His house Looks like Myself and at least Joe will be moving in and making it a Lush Pad. I hav lots of ideas for a sick lounge area !
My brother is apparently said he is joining the marines soon......... Im pretty reluctant about this as i just think of War etc and ppl dying. Meh who knows

Ok gonna go get a KFC now and play sum mtt's tonight me thinks !

Gd luck every1, Andy C

Thailand and RIP Dad

At the airport in Sweden we had the change sum monies into thai monies lol Fred went up to change and use his card in the machine but the lady said he had to sign the
card before he was allowed to use it.... so fred being the tard he is signed the fucking electronic black strip of the card so the card wouldnt work and
hence he was busto and left sponging of us all trip haha. Great start mr wallen :-) !! So Myself Max and Fred decided to 1st go to Pattaya ! we ended up staying for 10 days in the Ibis hotel.
It was a pretty nice hotel with a lush swimming pool and outside area. The days mostly started out by gettin the hotel's all you can eat breakfast buffet thn playing sum poker for a couple hours, thn swiftly moving outside for sum sun
and swimming :) We did nt get upto much in pattaya more just relaxed, Night times were alot of fun hehe. 1st night we went out the night consisted of going for dinner
at a fantastic resturant Max liked. It truly had the best food ever !!!! the steak dishes and pork = stunning o yeh and the lush cheesey potato thing !!!
we thn moved onto the pool hall for me to kick sum ass, and yes i did own souls at pool lol think i won like every game haha. the pool place was good because ther were girls
to rack your balls at the end of each frame pretty awsum feature tht i hav never seen before. Next up was Bowling and this incl a side bet with fred for $
to cut a long story short we played for $200 a game and i won every game we played for money so i shipped the $800 and a nice way to repay fred for my plane flight.
we drank a TON on drinks while the marithon session on bowling took place and by the end we was hammered so onto the GOGO bars.
Now i been in a few strip joints be for in Vegas but these were summin else girls just plain naked and doing things i never seen before......... opps :-)
we moved around diff places and nightclubs before fred decided he was too drunk and called it a night returning to the hotel alone :( Myself and Max partied sum more
with the 2 new girls we had managed to aquire..... we left the clubs a couple hours later and went home with insanly hot girls :) and had lots of fun etc hehe
we chilled for the next few days before repeating this cycle :) The weeks poker online was very good, i played the 250k on ipoker on sunday and got a shitty 4th place finish
for $16,333 which fucking sucks as a got it allin with 4 left for a 3,000,000 chip pot with QQ vs A2 allin on the turn after a 3 bet pre flop and bet flop and shoved rver on
a 6,2,9,6 board and the moron called me with A2 and so standardly hits an ACE on the river :( sigh 60k for 1st place.... a very hurtful badbeat. I am so proud of the way i played
the final table i really pickedmy spots when i had hardly any chips and put tons of pressure on when i got sum thn to lose like this sucks alot :( so i had currently turned
my ipoker account from $1500 to 22,000 now presently at 21,000 so alomost 20k profit ! my pkr account is now at $50,000 making a roughly 11,000 profit for not much time
invested :) o yeh i better mention tht i decided to risk $500 on ipoker blackjack and i hav turned tht into $4-5k roughly i now got support to ban blackjack and the casino
as i know i cant keep winning so i thought id take my winnings and leave the game a nice winner ! SHIP IT !
we hav now got a place in one of the thai islands right on the beach :) it really is totally sick, weather and beast beach i ever seen make it great. I can get out my bed
and walk to the sea in like 20 seconds really really nice ! We all rented jetskies yesterday and had a blast and also a little sunburnt but not so bad.
Iv done alot of swimming which is fun with the nice waves. so my legs feel broke today? Fred and Max hav gone on a elephant safari today and i did nt want to go because i
hav no energy :( shame as it looks really fun, hope i get another chance to see the water falls. We all hav been eating lunch, dinner and breakfast so keeping all heathly apart from
being bitten FUCKING LOADS by asshole mosquitos dfijvnisdfjvidsfjnvidjsfnv Jesus christ they are gay, Max has 106 bites...... ffs
Massages are great ! u can get thn almost anywhere and they are REAL GOOD ! Oil massage for the win i say :)
I will post this as soon as we get internet as this resort seems to hav none atm? we think their wi-fi broke sigh :( right gotta go as im about to go jump in the sea
and do nothing all day.... tuff life right but sum1s gotta do it!
we went out last night and played sum pool, chinese poker and drank alot of drinks.... I played sum guy at pool and won 8-2 :) he was the local pool guy who thought he was top
of the notch, clearly not hehe. We Also found out tht my Dad is really ill and is proberly gonna die soon :( maybe he gets better we will hav to
wait and see. gl dad.

p.s I lost my sunglasses :( $200 down the drain sigh.....

I write this with a booked flight to London tonight :( My dad had got much worse and they dont think he has long left to live. I got the next flight
home i could so im waiting now for my 1st flight off the island and thn on to a BA flight to London. I guess i can just hope tht he holds on at least so i get to see him.
I was thinking maybe i dont want to see him in pain and suffering? my last memory was before i went on this trip and we had a nice chat ( this happens very very rarely)
Tho for the 1st time in my life he told me he was proud of me and the way i live my life :) I dont know the details exactly about his condition i just know tht he needs a
heart transplant but is now far too ill for this to be practical. Such a sick thing to be told on holiday tht your dad is dying as u lay in the sun, is ther any 2 more
things tht are further apart from one another? less thn 2 weeks ago he was walking around looking better thn ever. I guess tht things change quicker thn u can ever
imagine in life. It sucks because no amount of money or love can fix my Dad. I guess if ther was a God ( which i dont beleive ther is ) thn this is the time to pray.....
It would be nice for me to know exaclty the details etc Guess i ll just hav to wait and see. My Aunties husband Allister is picking me up from the Airport because the
hospital where my Dad is being held is close.

Right im gonna go and pack the rest of my stuff and get ready for a long and weird trip home

Thanks to all the people who sent their love and good wishes, it means alot so many thanks xxx

I write this part a few days after seeing my Dad just in time before he died at 11.30 on saturday :( sigh was very sad to see. Im now going to get into the funeral
arrangements, i Hav to drive 2.5 hours but w/e hehe :) make sure dad has a nice day at least !

Sweden !!!

Thursday started with me swoping my computer setup while im away travelling with my brother laptop becuase his is better thn my old vile laptop. haha
I got driven upto Heathrow airport by my stepdad on friday morning for my flight to Sweden !!
When i got to Sweden i got the Arlanda express train to Stockholm central and Henrick picked me up in his nice BMW !!! He took me to his appartment which is also very nice, modern decor and perfect for a trendy swedish wanker like him lol ! we got a pizza from the pizza shop below the flat ( so sick how good this guy runs even a pizza shop next to his house wtf)
we stayed in the 1st night and played sum poker and chatted.
Saturday night was Amazing. we went to the local Casino to play poker and get drunk before we headed to a really really sweet club CAFE OPRA. We decided to eat at the casinos restuarant ! the food was stunning and not to expensive + drinks were really cheap here so has quite a few double vodca redbulls :) Now it was time to play poker we played in a 50/50 cash game which means in england pretty much a £5/£5 game. Henrik started which 5000 crown and finished on 25,000 ! he made sum good calls vs a few big bluffs so wp sir. i on the other hand proceded to drop about 10,000 crowns so around a £1,000 loss. but w/e i dont regret my plays just varience.
we drank and chatted to people at the table all of which spoke perfect English :) we drank alot of jagermeister and left around midnight to meet Henriks friend Charlie at the club. when we got to the club it was fucking packed, packed with the largest amount of SUPER HOT girls i v ever seen. literally no joke 90% of them were all gorgeous and none where ugly or fat etc ! such an unreal experience, did nt know this was so true about the rumours iv heard before.
So we got into the club and we had the best table in teh club ! fucking sick !!!!!!!! we met charlie and his sister + her hot friends ! Then mr Pokey85 ( Henrik ) ordered 2 bottles of Moet which cost him like 4000 crowns i think. in total he spent 6000 crowns wot a nice guy huh :)
Just as i was getting hammered at the table Fred85 from pkr and my thailand trip buddy popped in to say hi ! he was already pissed out his face but was really cool to see the guy at last !
we all drank and danced till the club shut around 3.30am i beleive? we ended the night by getting a Mc donalds and a taxi home. Charlie stayed round pokeys this night also.
One of my best nights out ever i think ( FOOD, POKER, DRINKS, CLUB ) it doesn't get any better than this does it ? Sunday was a chill out day recovering. Charlie and pokey played PS3 all day sum shit hockey game and UFC lol
Monday Henrik had work in the day so i stayed at his place doing fuck all so decided to play sum pokeys and won around $1200 + played sum red alert 2 :)
Later tht day we got pizza agen lol watched football on tv and thn went to meet fred and max at the casino to play sum poker. when we got ther they said the poker room was closed sigh 2 days a year and we run this good to pick one on my small trip here FML
Instead we went to a bar and drank a few beers and called it an early night.
When we was home we played sum HU stts ( pokeys fav thing in poker haha) I played two $200 ones vs rambo on pkr who is terrible and ofc i won both :) also used my HU final stage ticket and shipped the 1st place agen for $380 so yesterday total i won like $2,000 ish

Myself Max and Fred hav booked our hotel and flights to thailand on wednesday 21st Oct so thts fuckin awsum and cant wait. FML with the massive flight tho wtf sigh

So my trip to Sweden has come to an end and i must say its been Amazing. I couldn't of asked to meet nicer people and Hericks hospitality has been great ! Thnks man for letting me stay at your house, Its very nice of you and im very greatful! So now im moving onto Thailand with Fred and Max, two guys tht love to get drunk and party ! sooooo fun times here we come.

PS BulletproofJ start runnign better plz i read your post and seems your running super bad. GL

Many topics

This week i hav played basically zero online poker as i havnt felt like it atal :( So its defo not a good mood for playing in. I hav been to Big slick almost every night this week to chill out and play sum live poker donkaments. Im plus for the week so thts nice. Lately i must of played like 6 mtts and had a 3rd place finish and two 1st places which makes me up alot £500 and £700 wins, plus im up like £400 in cash games..... I crush hehe
Now I will write this part down now before i sleep and forget how to word it tomoz :) Lately i been thinking about alot of stuff all the time which gets me down. This is usually when im laying in bed about to sleep or sumtimes just random thoughts pop into my head. They are usally about wot i dont hav hence Love in my life. I mean this in the GF sense not family love as i hav tons of tht :) I think about an ex relationship alot of the time which sucks......... Soooo all this thinking makes me dream alot and i remember them. Not good when alot of thm are so called nightmares. I go through random patches of these every now and thn WTF? I dunno wot im saying with all this but guess i think to negative sometimes. Hard to always look on the bright side of life? hmmmm
On other news the girl i kinda liked a while ago sent me a pic of her in her underwear !!! I 1st saw this on her phone a while ago and she said she would send this to me and it arrived tonight !!! Very very nice suprise as she was looking "Stunning" to be quite honest , so thnks for tht.
I must comment on Andy Gowens amazing 6 seater STT performance! A real champion and i see bright things for the future for this man........ so WP taking down the Huge 1st proze of $20
Ahh better comment on the Thailand adventure..... does nt seem to be going anywhere atm no plans as yet and does nt seem to be any in the pipework so guess i ll just play it by ear.
Gotta say a GL wish to Beyne and my friend James Sudworth who are both in the semi finals of a $10,000 HU live poker torney in London. All the best James u deserve it !!! Take tht bitch down

I wrote this blog in 2 different days so might read weird but o well w/e such as life.

weekends

This weekend I hardly played any poker online. Friday night I invited for dinner round mums house for wot i must say was the best home made lasagna I had EVER eaten. So props to the best lady in the world also dropped off loads of washing haha ( i pay my mum to do my washing as it takes up far to much time and is also a massive effort plus means i hav another excuse to see the family) So pretty much a win win situation for every1 :-)
I went thn and played live pokers for a cash game £ 1/2 blinds which was a dealers choice game.
The 3 games u could play are HOLDEM/OMAHA/IRISH HOLDEM. All these games were potlimit.
I managed to play into the early hours of the morning like 7am and book a solid £300 profit :) It was also a great laugh as there was a story telling guy at the table who was pretty funny.
On Saturday i played live agen and cashed in a very small field mtt got 3rd. Played snooker and ate take outs for rest of night :)
So this Sunday i decided tht i was nt gonna play online MTTS as was just not feeling it. I agen went to Big slick and lounged around eating Chinese and watching X-factor. All the decent ppl got through except for the ugly twins tht Irish plank put through. Every1 seems to think ther alful but i guess maybe they hav a little summin special........ probably tht they suck each other off every night while listening to will young.
I decided id make a small deposit and play at the computers ther and try and spin up a mini roll in one session at 1/2. I made a few buy ins profit, lost £80 at blackjack and quit. So nice profit ther :) hehe Also in the few times i played PKR at the weekend i managed to book a solid profit of a few thousand $$$$ so account is now booming after a $800 Rakeback also been paid to my account. $37,335 in the pokers account which is pretty sweet especially after last weeks antics of running bad...... playing like a donk ......... :)
Congrats to mtt pro Nick / salamader6 on ftp. he got 3rd in the 50r on Pokerstars on Sunday for little over $16,000 :) so grats to him for tht impressive score.
Dunno if my trip to Thailand is happening anytime soon as max is ill and has nt spoke to me about it in ages. me thinks maybe he dont wanna come to England 1st like he said he would so we could fly the long trip together..... i ll keep u informed of updates.

Spun the account around

Well my roughly $15,000 losing last week came to an end on Saturday night where i played sum juicy 5-10 cash games. I managed to get unstuck to the tune of 7k tht night which was solid, followed by the next few days with another like 5k so really turned the bad week around :)
It did nt affect me tht much mentally just was disappointing to lose tht much so quick on a passive site with lots bad players.
On Wednesday of the losing week i thought tht i take a night off and take my Brother to the cinema to see District 9 and boy tht was a great choice ! One of the best films i ever seen ( seriously amazing) Even tho i had to pay like $50-$60 for the trip altogether probably saved me a ton in monies tht night if i played the pokers.
1st week i ever looked at HM properly and it defo helps and am going to be using it to go over hands and results in the future :) I played live pokers on saturday night and bust a £150 freeze out. Worste standard i ever saw lols literally 5 ppl in the room even new how to play sumwot all the rest are HUGE fish and stations. SO decided tht i will be playing the £150 NLH/PLO torney on sunday instead of playing horrible mtts online which are pissing me off l8ly. I took $5,000 out of FTP and now got tiny rolls on both stars and FTP of like $2500 each. meh w/e

Right now i not feeling like playing online poker so gonna go see a few friends at bigslick and probs play the small nightly mtt. Gonna be receiving like $1,000 in Rb in the next couple days from last months play :) just so feels like free money and i love that.

p.s id love to know why the fuck razor blades for my razor cost so fucking much? lol

Hating 5-10 and poker atm

Well im super tilted atm and very pissed off.... Managed to lose 10k on pkr at 5-10 in last few days.
Couldnt win a hand for 2 days super sick and depressing. I did nt obv play very great either, impossible to play ya best when nothing is going your way ( KK VS AA few times is fun also )
Every time iv ever played 5-10 this happens i dont get it. Lose every allin vs a shortie and it sucks big time no joke like 1-20 on allins pre flop vs retarded short stacks.....
Very much sucks losing all the profit id grinding out at 2/4 , 3/6 and sumtimes 5-10 to lose it all bak. I just played on ftp for no reason and thought id play 10-20 plo lol, i suck at plo and bad idea i lost a couple K and quit, played 1 table of 5-10 and lost 1.5k ish got it allin on flop w/ a flush draw and but shot in a rr pot and lost to top set HAHA. so these loses total my losing for 3 days at like $14,000 o man thts alot of money and will take along time to rebuild..... i guess i should use this as a learning experience and take a coupel days off? Thing is tho i find it so hard to take days off and see games running and am like " Ahhh i ll just play for abit see how it goes"

Max says he is coming to England soon or at least going to Thailand so Im going also. Gotta get my tattoo finished before i go tho.

So im gonna chill for sum time and think about my game sum before i go back to playing.
So i wont feel like im on this tilt tht i feel right now..... May go to cinema tonight to watch
District 9

London town, and FML w/ women

Ok so this week poker wise has been great agen. Cash games i feel like I am killing the games i play in so decided to play sum 5-10 no alot more regular like when games are wot i call at least half decent. Since i got back from Vegas i hav been killing the games and putting in sum decent hours.
Had a few people in the games i play and outside say many nice and complimentary things to me!
So gives me even more confidence :)

In the girl front ! I must just suck at this. Its like in USA girls really liked me and i even found like a GF there. obv i live in England and her in USA so could nt work, as all my girl in the past are. Everything is fucked up FML. Myself and Yas are gonna be wot i always am with girls and thts JUST FUCKING FRIENDS !!! Maybe im just always ment to be single????? FML

Saturday just gone was the birthday trip to London for mike and stu's joint Bday dinner and Clubbing. I stayed in a hotel w/ Karl which was very nice in the center of London.
We went for dinner which was UBER posh and very cool ( why the fuck do posh dinners hav the worlds smallest portions?) Saw 75% of the guys and people tht were in Vegas this year and was amazing to catch up and see how every1 is doing.
Got very very drunk and in the VIP section of the club we were partying w/ famous people even. Joe Calzaghe was ther w/ like 15 women on his arm lmfao ( MBN, must be nice ) Also a few people from a British soap.
I danced loads proberly looked like a twat but w/e i dont care i loved it and was funny at the time :) The walk from the club to Leicester square was funny as me and Karl were cruising the streets speaking to random people and saying stuff like " sir im loving tht shirt" " or wow u ladys are looking stunning tonight" lots of silly comments aswell. Got a hot dog which was LOOOOOOSH ;-) The taxi we got back was hilarious we got a bike cab. haha funniest thing i ever done. pretty cool end to an amazing night.
Thos i did leave my shoes in the hotel room which i had bought tht day sigh...... They are sending thm in the post tho which is cool and lucky i guess.

Gonna eat now and finish cleaning my room.
Gl at the tables and in life ppl.

Sad blog post and moaning/ Amazing Rob

Well i hav just finished reading a very sad blog post by a fellow poker player and it made me stop and think. It was about a girl tht committed suicide because the guy in whos blog post it was did nt love her and was moving away. It was really sad to read this and makes u think about life and important things.
1 thing i hav been meaning to write up is how i really do moan about everything, even tho alot of the time the complaints are fair. I mean moaning about how shit the food was on holiday how crap the weather was? these all seem like very fair comments but is ther a time+place for these.
I guess its not fair on other people to maybe put a dampener on their good times with my comments? I dunno if i do sum times but sure every once in a while.
I mean seriously wtf hav a got to moan about? maybe these things? idiot me ofc

-I hav a great family who i love dearly and will help me out with just about anything
-I live in a decent house with all i could need ie computer setup, massive t.v , amazing bed etc
-I hav a very nice car ( golf gti )
-I hav money and an ever growing poker Bank Roll ( poker has been real good to me when i think about it, even tho iv put in alot of effort ;-)
-Iv never hav to wake up or go to bed at certain times! And i hav been on holiday for 8 weeks this year in total.
-My family's health is very very good

These are just a few things tht i should be very happy about and really means i should NEVER EVER hav a reason to moan !
So next bad beat i take in poker i will try to be like meh w/e and think about my list of things in my life tht are amazing. Ther is alot of VERY ungreatful and scumbag type ppl in this world, I try not to be one of those (defo think im not) "People really dont realize wot they hav till its gone" Now when i was in Malia i had some good bonding time with my 16 year old bro Rob.
Now this is a guy tht is literally great at everything he does. He is 6"5 and does boxing, regularly decks 18-21 year olds. very intelligent and done well at scholl. Literally will beat u at any computer game u play him at ( amazing at guitar hero, fifa,COD etc) This guy sat down at the Malia beach party and did the drinking contest ( 50 shot challenge) and OBV won !!! /Owned 3 other people all of which were 20 years and older !!!! they all were sick while rob just drank them all under the floor !! It was after this tht i was Very impressed and decided i would give him a jab in the arm as a congrats :P He goes do u wanna play fight on the sand ( kinda like sparring was ment by this ) I accepted and managed to get a few cheap shots in :P Thn he tryed and gave me a jab in the arm which i swear almost broke my arm !!! i still hav the bruise from it writing this a couple weeks after. I realized tht i wasn't gonna win so i ran off like a wimp haha !
The guy is a legend and every1 loves him. The girls really like him the lads love him ( even random people u meet out love this guy) I know he will go far in life and he is just to good at Life.
I wish him all the best , love you Bro.

See i really hav nothing to complain about in my life? So im gonna try and lose sum of the pointless moaning about the things tht really arnt important in life.

In other news Myself and Jamie (bulletproofJ) are thinking about goin to Thailand for a couple months. Just get a house and grind poker for a while getting a great life experience. Jays been before so would be nice to go with sum1 who has experience as i haven't been there before.
Im about to start the Sunday MTT grind so maybe i will Bink summin and have even more reason to be happy !!!

Malis 09 trip report

well my week off from poker in malia has come to an end and i must say im pleased.
I enjoyed alot of the week with my 2 brothers , karl, fliss, doug swift, luggoon and paul.

We rented quad bikes for the 1st 4 days and wot a fuckin liabilty they are...... ther are basically no rules in malia or laws when it comes to this ! so we strolled in and got a deal 20 euros each for 4 days and was like yay this is a great deal. Then came the 30 euros insurance which is clear con, i ll explain about tht l8er. We got outside after paying 50 total and got told we would hav to pay 10 euros for petrol each pmsl to which they actually gave us like 4-5 euros worth sigh....
so off we headed on our bikes looking for fun. We went up the mountains and cruised around this like quary thing which was sum of the best fun iv had for a very long time.
We found this mud track which was fuckin awsum fun, we could drift around the figure of 8 track.
Was a mental afternoon , great times untill paul managed to go downhill and crash his bike into rocks lol he was so lucky to get away with cuts and bruises but the bike was fucked! so we left it ther and thought tht we could say sum1 stole it ! and the insurance would pay !
the next day the men from the rental shop came and found paul and said they found his broken crashed up bike dumped up in the mountains lolz he had to admitt tht he crashed it himself becuase they saw him and all his cuts all over his body. He had to pay 500 euros even tho he had insurance and they said when we took it out tht it covers crashes theift etc. they basically told him to pay the money or they would beat him up !!! ( send men to find him and crush him if he runs off or does nt pay) wtf where are we in the world for this shit lolz
So he haggled them down to 150 euros and left.

The food in our hotel was rancid and pretty much everywhere we ate was mediorce at best,
The rooms were cheap as and did nt even hav t.v's in sigh.... had to pay extra for everything even fuckin aircon wtf? The local ppl in malia are 98% ignorant rude wankers.
Mc donalds was my best meal i ate the whole trip....

The nights out were great fun but suprisingly cost alot. Im sure all the drinks were watered down sigh. The snakes tht tried getting u too come into the bars were mostly all wankers except a few who were ok. The clubs were all small but was pretty decent.
The one thing pissed me off about here was the music.... all chart shit and played none stop ( like on turbo repeat)

fun trip tho all in all and i did get to sit next to a hot girl on the plane and talk load with her and her amazingly huge tits :) oioi

Yay Youtube vids on my blog

Well it appears tht im a blog god lol I sent my report of the Vegas mtt 4th place to my whole msn list and the comments i got back were amazing ! I was really proud of myself :-)
I yeh i will now be posting random videos on here from youtube as i found out how to do tht this week! So a Special thanks to my friend ( kloonike ) for helping me with this.
I think i will post this video of Phil Hellmuth going nuts at the 2008 WSOP ..... this guy is a poker legend and a funny guy! even tho he acts like a complete dick he is great for T.V and we laughed alot at the next video in Vegas ! ( proberly watched it like 100 times )

This is just classic tv and amazing to watch esp the classic lines of " Honey he called a raise with a QUEEN and a 10" lolz and the "O HE DID NT DID HE , Idiot from northern Europe" and the best of all the chip crushing , acts like a little child. All in all hilarious !!


This is actually the most that I have ever laughed at a single poker hand. This includes the retarded women poker player Tiffany Michelle and Marc Podell. Marc shows every poker emotion in the world in this hand. The Poor guy Really does hold his heart on his sleeve !!! Funny as tho

$1,000 Caesars Palace super deep stack main event in las vegas

Right i been meaning to do this for sum time now, I finally hav the time to do sooo ! well here goes.


Right it started off about 4-5 days till the tournament started. I went to Caesars and played sum cash games and saw the poster for a MEGA STACK MAIN EVENT with a $1,000 buyin.
I thought as i did nt play any wsop event tht this was my shot at making sum decent money lols
When i got back to the house i asked a few of the lads if any1 was gonna play it too. But sum were going home on the day and the house was super short of people ( cause wsop had ended... only main event was left )
This is were i had the funniest thing i ever heard haha it goes like this Jamie (sooosick) was busto and wanted nick (samamander) to stake him in the event i planned on playing. Jamie is asking for $500 from Nick, so Nick goes are u willing to play properly and actually try? Jamie did nt seem to keen and was like meh. Then Nick turns to me and says can i buy a peice of u Andy in it? This was pretty cool for me tbh as i respect nicks games alot ( sick mtt player ) We had talked/played alot of poker together and looked at HHs ( handhistories) So i say yeh sure i ll sell u 10% he ships me the money and i move on. Jamie goes WTF u will buy Peices of Andy and not me? Jamie thinks he is the best poker player in the world BTW lol. SO Nick turns around and insta says " This is because Andy is actually good at poker Jamie" This was the funniest thing i v ever heard and insta started laugh at Jamie this left Jamie speachless ..... looking extreamly owned he stands ther going red.

Well anyways i ll get on with the mtt now. So i stroll down to the torney on day 1a. I get to my table and see a bunch of middleaged depressed people nd a coupel old people and thought yay this looks good !! we started off with 50,000 starting chips 1000 bbs with an hour blind levels.
I started off feeling the table out to see wot was goin on, and to my suprise no1 actually sucked big time. I did nt get a hand for hours and just played super small ball poker. I dwindled down to like 18k after like half the day and was getting really fed up. But i did nt let this stop me or put me off my game. I then made a sexy squeeze allin which i new no1 could call. about 5 player limped for 800 at 400/800 i was in bb w/ 85o and decided to shove and literally never get called. So i did and every1 insta folded and i picked up like 5k for free :) this got me rolling abit
Next hand a super fish limps utg ( he limps like 75% of hands , raised huge tho if he has summing good) i look down and see AJ in sb so i pump it up and he insta calls me as usal, we played alot of hands prier basically he won every1 lol. Flop comes K,10,3r i bet out 2/3 pot and he snap calls
i really put him on weakness and i know tht he floats flop bets super light so i decided on a brick 7 on the turn to shove like 20k into a 21k pot expecting a fold a large % of the time. He thinks for abit and folds A10 and Now i had confidence !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
couple blind levels later i pick up QQ and decide to call a loose openers early position raise on the button. The flop comes 7,5,2ss now i hav been agro at the table, so i raise his c-bet on the flop not planning to fold to an allin ! he thinks for like a minute and goes allin i insta snap only to be shown AA? the turn blanks off and i stay sat in my chair cause i just know the QUEEN ball is hitting on the river :P and sure enough it BINKS!!!!! now i had like 90k stack and in great shape.
Ther was a few hours left of the day so i thought try and get as many chips for day 2 as possible.
I 3 bet resteal a few times to sum young kids tht got moved to my table ( obv they was agro good players, as most young people are in $1k buyins, kinda my rule of thumb when playing live, just assume tht all young people are at least decent and not a fish)
I won a hand w/ AA when i flopped a set and got allin vs a flush draw and held!!!!!
I finished the day on 184k and my sights very much set on 1st place.

I had the next day off tho as day1 B was takign place. So i chilled at home went swimming and cinema saw BRUNO ! very funny but very fuckin gay? every joke was to do with gays. funny film tho still, Apart from the fuckin ending which was fuckin discusting !!!! 2 men kissing full on and shagging basically on the floor :( AHHHHH horrible

Day 2 started and i was feeling super confident. I dwindled down not getitn any hands atal for hours. I got moved table and chipped up a little had like 200k now the cutoff shoved his like 12 bbs and i insta reship AKs from the button the blinds fold and i lose to AJ :( down to like 150k and like 20 till the money bubble. We get sent on dinner break and i go shopping for clothes :-)

I had the pleasure of playing with Sunny Chatta and the legend TJ cloutier. Sunny bust and TJ was left being a super fucking nit haha ( really nitty )

I got moved table about 10 till the money and was put on the table with the massive torney chip leader MRSMOKEY1 ( online mtt/stt/ high stakes cash GOD) he opened alot of hands and chipped up even more. The bubble went on for wot seemed forever ( literally 2 hours ) i got super short by this time, as i could nt do anything cause SMOKEY was raising everything ! anyways soon the bubble broke and i was $1800 richer !!! yayayayayay
the blinds and antis were massive at this point and my main man Karl had come to rail me just after he bust the WSOP main event :( His run good worked on me and i went from like 80k / 5 bbs to like 1.1 million in this sick run. I even folded AJs with 5bbs to a utg open in the sb . I new i was beat by the guys range so i folded lol he actually flipped JJ and sed see i wasn't stealing lols moron live players haha I had to call allin from mr smokeys late pos open with 66 he has k10 and i held !!! so im upt like 200k thn i get TO shove a few times in LP with junk. i even shoved button with like 10 bbs ish with 86o and the BB folded 99 face up !!! I insta laughed at him and sed WTF? he went so mad at me saying go bak to Europe u kid. I just continued to laugh hard at him for 15 mins roughly ! he tryed saying he did nt need to flip for 10 bbs lols wot a tard . U cannot excuse tht kinda play and other player s at my table were laughing at him also and he was gettin steamed when he came out with this line "liston kid iv had more cashes thn uv had hot dinners" I obv insta laugh my ass off in his face. He sits ther and steams sum more ! I tryed to explain the maths behind my shove and how bad it is to fold 99 ther, but another English guy from another table came across and sed plz dont educate a retard lol Mikey obv went off on another rant about kid poker players and how he busts them every WSOP !!!! hahaha
He tells me his name is mikey "unbelievable" and i should search him on google. I say to him ur nick name is mickey "unbelievable"??? Liston mate u sound more like a stripper thn a poker player! I actually did google him and he is an ex hocky player turned pro so kinda like Teddy Sheringham i guess.

I get this hand AKs vs mikey with AKo and a guys Q10o tht is had to be allin with shortish.
anyways i make a flush and knock mikey out and Iam suddenly upto like 900k BOOM!
Day 2 ends soon and im left with 925k goin into the final day. At this point ther was 27 left

Day 3 starts and im pumped to do well. TJ is only live pro left tht i know off. Quite a few young kids left also which always sucks as they are like 99% tuffer thn the drooling live pros.
I manage to get a guy to 3 bet me allin ( he looked at me for liek 1 minute and then i gulped and he insta shoved . I snapped with KK he flips QJs and i hold.
thn interestign hand happens. The cutoff shoves like 4 bbs ish after losing a massive allin pot to sum1 else, the English dude who multitables 2/4 / 3/6 on stars ( really good player understands loads bout the game) makes a iso shove for like 850k and i look down at 99 in the sb . I hav like 1.4 million so i reshove and TJ in the bb folds. He says o shit im like yay. He flips KJs and wins the pot with trips. I know my play here is 100% correct as i know his re shipping range is HUGE so did nt feel to bad. Only too hav TJ cloutier say my reshove was bad to all his friends and the people at the table. FUCKING NIT BAG RETARD LEARN SUM MATHS AND GAME THEORY U FUCKIN OLD RETIRED NO GOOD FUCK THT LOOKS LIKE A MONSTER OFF THE PACKET OF A BAG OF MONSTER MUCH CRISPS!!!

I shove for a while and chip up with KK agen and thn i shove the button with 14bbs w/ A7o totally standard and get called by MR.smokey who had AJs and im in shit trouble when the flop comes with 2 of his suit!!! I sum how manage to bink an offsuit 7 on the turn !!! and hold vs the redraw on the river. ( run good ) Now Mr.smokey did nt even flinch i mean say anything do anything just looked the same at start of hand and same at the end of the hand. A real Pro and a decent guy. I sed sick beat ul dude. He was like "np buddy u hav to shove ther with A7 " i woulda done the same thing so NH" real gent and genuine nice guy.
we was down to like 12 people now and TJ was gone. He is so lol he raise folded 9 bb 3x open w/ 99 and folded to a shove like 7 handed ! haha obv terrible tht is why he did nt make FT
I manage to pick up KK agen and hold allin pre vs 1010 and im upto like 3.5 million with 11 left. I steal alot of blinds and all of a sudden hav 4 million chips and my 1st huge live FINAL TABLE!

So final table starts and i hav a look around alot of younger guys all which were very good and a few older guys which were also very good. Ther was one weak player sat to my right.
I find the guys from the house came to support me so thnks to KAI, HENRIK, KARL, JAMIE and TAKARA !!! They all watched from their seats and proceded to drink as did I ( well only a few as i wanted to concentrate and enjoy my time here) I talked alot at the final table with a couple guys incl the English 2/4 regular called Matt, super funny guy ! We laughed and joked 75% of the whole final table was great fun. I had to raise call AJs vs KK and i hit an ACE . We was down to 6 players in a couple hours and boy they were all tuff !!! inl mr smokey and Matt ther was no free money anywhere.
we got to 4 handed and the blinds were insanly big now. 150k/300k with a 50k anti.
I had been reshipping my 4-5 million stack over Smokeys opens alot and got folds everytime.
I then picked up 99 on shoved Smokey called with AJ and hit a jack on the flop to knock me out in 4th place for $47,000 !!! U shook every1s hand and wished thm all Good luck ! gg me

Mr smokey ended up winning 1st place for a cool $155k seriously a beast of poker ! WP sir

I went home and chilled very happy and prepared for the partying to celebrate the next night. Cost me $1500 tht night but was well worth it and the lads desearved it after the supported me. Means alot to me when my friends rail me on a final table so thnks guys !!!!
