Pokerstars blogger champs coming up. yoo hoo.

Back

I have decided to rekindle a bit of interest blogging. Well, it gives me something to do while playing hi/lo. Probably the most boring poker game ever invented.
Anyway, I have decided to diversify into playing more holdem games.
Since my last post, I picked up a scoop watch and played crap throughout the WCOOP. In fact that set of tournies led to my first losing month since I don't know when. Back to normality this month though. Although I have not quite reached a $3k profit which is par.
In the real world, lifes normal. Decided to get a job, if anyone will have me. The thought of travelling again is also possible.
Note. Great day Sunday at Wembley watching the NFL with son Danny.

KK curse lifted

I guess I finally beat the curse..??

Weekend at Stars

December and Xmas is nearly here. Poker is awful. I am break even for the last 120 days according to OPR.
Sports betting has been good to me however. Fulham are top half of the table and have been awesome at home this year again. They are even picking up the odd points away from home.
On the family front, my Daughter arrived on the 24th of July and she is a healthy bundle of fun.

Back to poker. I have the KK curse.
I have been playing loads of low stake rebuy tournies recently. To get to the later stages seems easy. However I have been having too many to believe KK bustouts. Same story everytime. A low stack jams with A9 A7 etc and of course I call. But an unhealthy amount of times not only one, but 2 Aces grace the flop.

It will change.
