I do apologise my good friends, general surfers and online stalkers for the non delivery of my latest post. This is mostly due to someone who is working on my blog to try and beef it up for me, it is taking slightly longer to finish than l was told because he is doing it on his time off. Hopefully it will happen this week and if not, l will just post on this format.
I have loadsa shit to get through, boring poker crap like the WSOP, which l thought was quiet good for the Brits, not so good for the Irish. We ha
ve James in the final nine, jammy wee bastard and what about me oul mucker JabbaCake nearly nicking a bracelet in the Omaha, fair kop. Mickey Greco once again proved he can play poker with a 250k payday and a deep run in the Main Event, he must surely be respected as one of our better tournament players now! Talking about Grecs and Vegas, you have his good friend Neil Channing (cough, cough) and his new BlackBelt Crew idea, where players pay for their own tournaments through rake and then give BlackBelt back 50% of any winnings, personally an old bit of binder twine would do me Neil. I wonder what odds Mr Channing would have offered me on Grecs making more profit than all his Jackie Chans during the WSOP?

I did venture down to London for the Unibet thing and came back dying with Swine Flu after a good night in the DC game. Luton was next for the GUKPT, this was a great trip with one off the best DC games l've been involved in. I witnessed the most unbelievable hand of Padooki between Chandra and Richard Wheatley where a £6k pot winged its way to Richard after him changing up 3 cards on the last change. I won't start travelling around again until my Black Labrador dies and l will then take 3 months off from everything, Sports and Poker. The only break l'm likely to take from this routine is to watch James in November as l didn't get away this Summer. Wallace, my black Lab. is great at the minute but he is very old (14) and has tumors all over, the vets don't think he has long left but by jesus he is a fighter.
Dusk Till Dawn would not let me come in for the 1k Event when there was an overlay, Nick Whitten did say that there was a chance in the future though. Ex DTD employee and new co-owner of TGF Poker, Paul Jackson, has started to regenerate the Birmingham Cash games with a Tuesday game at Walsall and then Friday and Saturday at the lovely Broadway, seats are much sought after and the games are really good. He is also starting a Dealers Choice game soon which will be on a Thursday, l'm sure this will be rammed so contact Paul for a seat if your interested. I'll be there, so plenty of value!
I've had alot of messages and stuff from friends back home asking me if l'm coming to play in var
ious tournaments across the water. The answer is the same to everyone, NO, there are two reasons for this. Firstly, Ireland is no longer a value place to travel, its expensive as fuck and the exchange rate is disgusting. Next there are never any Dealers Choice Cash games, although the Omaha and Holdem games are great value, the tournament organisers suck the life out off them with their over inflated rake rates. They should not bother with suits and stuff from now on, l would suggest Balaclavas and AK 47's!
Well, that's enough banter for now, l was only going to do a paragraph. I will do a full blog soon when things will hopefully be revamped on the overall look. There will be a few bits of additional stuff added too, like a forum watch column where l will be discussing some of the useless shit that these forum leeches post. Also a GOSSIP part too, with some good shit each week. Try and leave a comment you lazy bastards. Good Luck folks, speak soon!
