So So Sick

I now remember why i left 32Red in the first place, why is it hindsight is a wonderful thing?

I knew i should have cashed out when i reached $300 but i had to play one more hand, Got dealt QQ raised it up to $5 playing 50c $1 and clicked sit out next hand, a guy who had just been beaten in a sick beat himself slams all in for $38ish everyone folds back to me i call and because of 32Reds software it doesnt show you their hands right away, Flop brings 3 4 9 , 10 river A and what does this donkey turn over A5 well played u plum.

Anyways went out for a meal with the missus came back and fired up what i had left in my account about $240 so two tables of 50c $1 catch sum drunken fishees. Get dealt KK raise it up to $6 get 1 caller flop comes J 4 8 he bets the pot i figure at best he has a J so re pop to 3 times the pot he thinks and slams now ive got to call the remainder and he shows AJ, get in i thought turn As, Piss take number 1

Almost at the same time on another table get dealt Jh10h minimum raise to $2 Sb fold i call flop comes J 10 2 he bets the pot again and i figure him for AJ or over pair so decide again to pump it up 4times pot this time he again wastes no time and slams i call and he shows QQ, again i was like yes! turn brings 6h all looking good so far and the river 6s what a fucking piss take number 2 runner runner higher two pair.

I wish id logged off there but the pride kicked in i will win this money back!, so dip into the account and fire up two tables of 50c $1 with $100 on each at this point i was steaming mad i really should have logged off but i was convinced i could do it!, get KQs in BB its raised to $4 3 people call i figure ive odds to call and its not the worst hand, especially when the flop brings K Q 4 the original raiser bets the pot and a short shack pushes for $5 more i think do i milk it or slam here and decide sod it im enough down already and slam other guy folds oringal raiser calls turn 2 river 2 i was thinking not again surely??? yep original raiser shows AA and other guy shows A2 i flop 2 pair and come last how the fuck did that happen?

meanwhile on the other table i get AA and a guy has already pushed all in infront of me i was noticing this alot tonight they would push $50 pre flop so i re raise all in over the top everyone else folds, flop brings K 4 5 turn 3 river K and he shows K 10 o/s i just couldnt belive it, what a fucking piss take all round,

Decide to take one more shot at 50c $1 and deposit another $100

Nothing really to note apart from anotehr sick outdraw when its QQ vs QQ and he hits runner runner flush to give him the last of my money,

Now i know why i left 32red and why its referred to as Red Thirty Jew!

Onward and Upward









Started the night with a tough decision to cash out or not to cash out that is the question!, but alas i bottled it and cashed out $500 of my current roll, leaving me with $250 a little short for 25c 50c games i know but i feel the way im hitting cards at the mo, its enough. Also had a quick check to see my stats on my site and from the day my account started the figures are as follows,

Deposited - $2,585.55
Withdrawn- $5,234.89
Profit / Loss = $2649.34

Amount Wagered - $104,542.45






To last nights action, not as many maniacs about last night as there was over the weekend, well pleased with the 10,000 people seated thought makes a change from the 3000 you get on $hitfair.





Not many hands to talk of to be honest, I remember setting a guy all in with a set only for him to hit runner runner flush he was holding KK on a board 4 5 9 i had 9 9 all the money was in on the flop. very next hand im left with $20 get AK and re raise a small raise donk to the left of me calls as does another. Flop comes A K 4 i push they both call, turn is a spade and river another spade, they check it down and he flips over Q8 spades for the runner runner flush again!, and his excuse? "sorry i was playing 6 tables and clicked to call on another and called you all in by mistake".





But never the less i carried on and soon took the majority of his $120 stack when i flopped a set of QQQ against his A8 on a board that read A Q 10 8 10,





Then shortly after this i take the remaining $70 with 2 2 as he slow plays AA pre flop to let me see a board of 2 5 9 all the money is on the flop and my set of 2`s holds up!

A quick note to say well done to AL J the big fish for scooping $1600 in the tourny last nite,





Current roll from $25 freebie = $350 ($500 cashed out)

Eventful Weekend.

Nice to see the run of good cards and big hands holding up, was building the roll nicely upto around $450 before last nights / this mornings play.

Was up a couple of buyins so decided to leave it for a while and go watch MOTD, came back and figured there was a high chance there would be a few pi$$ed up fish on at this time so logged back on and played a little 50c $1, not many hands to remember apart from one just before i logged off, i think maybe i should have raised more pre to be honest, but in saying that i may have lost a customer. Then again this fish was pushing with nothing and getting called every other hand he must have done in $200+ in the time i was there

I had 77 raise to $4 from mid position, get two callers in SB and BB flop comes 8d 10h 2h i make a continuation bet the size of the pot around $15 SB folds BB calls, Turn 7s i bet pot he insta pushes, i figure he cant have called with J 9 to a pre flop raise surely? after much deliberation i put him on Ah ?h so call and he shows 3h 4h ( right suit wrong cards) luckily the river is As and i get a nice $350 pot.

After that called it a night as it was getting pretty late, fired up a couple of tables of 25c 50c today again up a couple of buyins early on and then another pivotal hand, again vs the table maniac.

KQs raise to $4 he calls rest of the table folds, now this guy was making some serious plays and was calling people down with nothing to the river. flop comes 9 10 3 he bets $2 i figure he has hit nothing and try and take the pot down with a x3 raise, he calls instantly which worries me. turn J giving me the nuts he insta bets the pot i raise he pushes and i call he shows Q 8 for the lower straight and again i ship in another $250 pot.

Current Roll

From $25 freebie - $775.37 in 3 days play.

Edit: shame not everything can run so good as me at the mo, Cas got hammered on Saturday night awful awful display boys!

Change of Tactic Me thinks.....

Ok well plan A didnt seem to go too well so i figured it was time for a change,

So after much thought i decided to move away from Betfair, and moved to another site i used to play at. It came out of the blue to be honest, i got an email from the poker director there and he asked if i fancied giving their new site another chance, so cheekily i agreed if he agreed to put some cash into my account to try it out which he duely did.

Got $50 now and another $50 when i reach a certain amount of raked hands, so been playing a few hands the past couple of days, and ive managed to run the $50 upto almost $500 so i think i may stick around for a while, the bonus aint too shabby either and they offer rakeback which is antoher bonus.

So will just see how this pans out and see what i can make in the next few days, anythings a bonus i guess given the money i got was for nothing!

Way To kick you when your down!

Got my rake back for the month and to be honest wished i hadnt of bothered,

From the very first hand i got shafted over and over again, sometimes i wonder why i bother, i had my KK beaten by Q8 all in pre flop he rivers the flush.

My 1010 all in pre one calls with K 4 suited and again rivers his runner runnner flush.

and to top it off was this one let me know what you think.

And to top it off i get in from work and the fking ceiling in our bathroom has come in fking awesome!
