Apart From

Apart from a several of deep cashes in MTT’s and moderate gains from cash tables (that’s the boring bit out of the way). And apart from cheering on so many brilliant races in all three MotoGP classes. And apart from seeing a grown man wearing a Superman T-shirt around our...

Hard Graft

y run of months in profit had to come to an end at some point, and November was that point. Cash tables returned somewhere around even, within a few dollars, but I took a hit in the tourneys I played, cashing rarely. One hand made me laugh though: I’d sat...

Mayan Calendar +1

My first blog of 2017 or Mayan Calendar +1 as I like to think of it. The fact that we are all still here did nothing but prove whomever made the calculations in Maya-land, just went that far, then said, ‘F**k it, I won’t be around in two thousand years,...

Wishing my life away (not)

Back in the swing of it

Back after my January sabbatical and on to the cash tables, as well as dodging terrorist bullets (that’s not an analogy for donkeys with rag aces btw—though I guess it could be I like to wake up first thing with a half-hour or so on the PlayStation, and have recently...

Heroes and Demons

March was a mad month of poker, cricket and F1. Despite chomping at the bit to play some large field MTT’s I stuck with cash table play with some comfortable low-variance results. While I am not one to be put-off by downswings, it is great when a plan comes together...

The most sensible thing I did was to take a break

I don’t want to get all girlie and start talking about my feelings… but it’s hard to explain otherwise. I’ve been edgy — you know, ready to jump at a loud bang — quick to take on an overly aggressive donk who wants to buy every pot – not always...

Inheritance

Ahh… the sound of summer. Single cylinder petrol mowers chugging across gardens, the chinking bottled beer salutes of British MotoGP fans cheering Cal Crutchlow and Bradley Smith, not to mention Scott Redding, and MotoGP fans everywhere cheering Rossi to his comeback win at Assen, mixed with the astonishment of Lorrenzo...
