Had a couple of disaster days followed by a few ok days to leave the total standing at +£370.21
With only a few days left before i go to the inlaws for christmas if i can break the +£400 mark that will be just fine by me!
Will do a proper look back on what if anything i have achieved this year playing poker nearer then end of year but what i can see from the records ive kept is that im up almost £1700 from the 3 months i kept records which for someone who plays my stakes aint too shabby.

Seasons Greetings Kiddo`s
Evening All,
To say its been a while is a slight understatement eh?
Where to begin, well as most of you know (if anyone still reads due to the lack of updates), I moved back over the right side of the pennines and back home, we went looking for a new sofa for our new place and ended up with a job aswell, not a bad days work there. All was going well until the past week when on the news it said MFI had gone busto, but when i asked at work that meant good news for us as it meant more stock coming our way... Or so we thought!. All last week the bosses are like we might have to lay you both off, We tjhought he was joking and messing bout that was until we got the news that as we hadnt fully paid for all the stock and by law MFI could request it back and request that we dont sell anymore of it, and thats just what they did, Fking great news, but the bosses did say it could and should be a couple of weeks til they actually came back for the stuff and that they were saying balls to them and selling the stuff anyway, so we thought our jobs were safe til christmas atleast, No such luck we got called into the office on Weds and were given our cards, Fucking great news 3 weeks before christmas, luckily the rent is paid 6 months in advance and all the christmas presents have been purchased in advance so im offically out of work, which in the current climate is a major pain in the arse!
Got a few interviews next week one for T Mobile and some other temping jobs in and around the area so hopefully i get somthing going before or start after christmas i aint gonna hold my breath put it that way!
On the poker front i was £380 up for the month before i lost my job and to be honest i cant see it rising much over that as i just dont have the funds to play and if i do play the stakes are far smaller which i suppose after last month after ending the month in the minus for the first time ina long time this should teach me some respect for cash and get back on the grind see what i can turn.
Anyways back to the job hunting catch you all later, all the best at the tables and whatever else you get upto

Nice Winning Evening
Had a good night tonight started off sitting at a aggro table of omaha 25c 50c with $30 quickly ran that upto $240 before logging off here are a few hands from tonight the first is standard pretty donkish to be fair but i just had a feeling he had air and hadnt connected as strong as his bets suggested http://www.pokerhand.org/?3359794
This one is very fortunate but i didnt feel that the other guy would call aswell, figured my flush draw was good as were my straightening cards just gotta love that river, (sorry to Deano btw, found out he is from my town).http://www.pokerhand.org/?3359803
Then the table broke and just left the three of us, it was very strange game after that they guy keeps raising the pot every single hand, just the way i like it get it in and mix it up wait til you hit the nuts and slam here is one example http://www.pokerhand.org/?3359813
Heres one just to show i dont always get it my way, http://www.pokerhand.org/?3359820
Same guy again raised every pot and i took this nice pot off him, http://www.pokerhand.org/?3359852
So with the money id won playing poker decided to stick a few bets on the footy,
Hamburg to Win @ 1.72
A C Milan to Win @ 1.66
Sevilla to win @ 1.60 in a £20 treble netting my £92
Sevilla to win @ 1.60
Aston Villa to win @ 1.61 in a £20 double netting me £51
A C Milan to Win @ 1.66
Sevilla to win @ 1.60
Aston Villa to win @ 1.61 in a £20 treble netting me £86.15
So finished up £288 on the night which i cant complain about
Profit for the month now stands at £1,463.73
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhip it!

Finally an Update
Evening all
Sorry its taken so long to make a post, its just things have been so hectic lately with the move and other life and poker stuff that i just havent had the time to sit down and stick owt on here but now i have found some time before the footy kicks off to let everyone know whats been happening.
Firstly finally moved from Chester back home to the right side of the penines i csnt believe how much more expensive it is in Chester to here, Mental it really is like twice as expensive, it was a shame to give up the penthouse apartment but it just wasnt big enough for us and we now have an extra bedroom so its all good, So now finally sorted bought everything we need to buy and slowly but surely getting sorted.
First thing we did when we moved in was organise a poker night,
Speaking of the poker its not been going too bad in the time from the last post to now, (hopefully i wont ruin everything by writing about it)
For August i was +£377.48
September +£615.65
October so Far = +£788.76
So not a bad showing from where i used to be at hopefully i can keep running this golden,
Below are a few of the memorable hands that ive played in the past month or so
http://www.pokerhand.org/?3326717
http://www.pokerhand.org/?3326723
http://www.pokerhand.org/?3326729
And Platonic next time you want to try and insult me you little pleb, you know where you can find me you keyboard warrior!
