Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Tuesday, July 15, 2008. Bracelets, Deep in the M.E. and Sponsorship, congrats all round. Well, first things first. Congrats to John O'Shea. On a WSOP final table, and to Marty Smyth. On taking down the Championship PLO event. This is the toughest field after the Horse imo. Well played sir. E (Cardshark) came 111th, and James. Hawkeye), who was in the top few spots for three days, and was even chipleader at one stage, came 71st. Congrats lads. Ability and resu...

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Monday, October 6, 2008. Fear and Loathing in Killarney. Button raise with AJs, sb re-raises (been at each other last three hands). I call AKJ flop, he bets, I ship, snaps with AA. Busto. As an aside to festival cash games, 60% shots at 800BB PLO pots are sick. Anti-climax indeed, heavy din, and a thundering crash, its all over.

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Monday, August 25, 2008. Round up, round up. This will be a short post. Well at least I think it will. I never realy plan these things out and just attempt to (as Gary clark puts it) talk freely. Went to Citywest for Vera's birthday bash. Quite a few runners. Too many infact. The free entry, while it encouraged lots of people, a €50 buy-in would of resulted in a quaility over quantity field. Change to the hot blonde (dealer) table, instantly back in the black.

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Tuesday, April 22, 2008. Swim a Mile wth a Smile. First, some charity. Wish me luck,. I managed to get oneive game in last week. It was a pretty successful. Of sorts. I made the final table, (only 16-18 runners), as the chip leader. I had only played a few hands, but I got paid off each time. Cue lots of me folding and not being able to stay ahead. Eventually coming 4th. Thursday, April 10, 2008. Running hot, in the non-poker. First off, while its not news to...

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Thursday, December 20, 2007. Santa Special at the Jackpot. Before I throw up a brief run-down of the goings on at the Christmas Special in the Jackpot, a update on my online poker runnings of late. I decided to try grinding it up again. As soul crushing as it can be, it can also be an excercise in two of the most important poker skills that must be learnt, bankroll management and tilt control. Now to the highlight of the week, The Jackpot Xmas special. View m...

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Thursday, March 20, 2008. Live Poker is Rigged! Strolls into a drunken jackpot. The 1/2 table is agro. Mouthy over nothing. Lots and lots of whining going on. I call a raise preflop. 4 see a flop. I make top pair and bet. Two callers and a BB all-in. I go into the tank for 30 secs , top pair is gold in the Jackpot, especially on Saturday. Not happy, I take my minute and reluctantly fold. Hand not shown. Shortly later I am dealt AsQs. I raise to 12. He is thin...

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Sunday, January 6, 2008. I'm running out of ideas for here. Coming up with titles can be slightly annoying. Anyway, to the poker. I haven't played live in a while, so no exciting stories there. At least, i'm getting it in ahead and happy with it. I plan on playing some live game during the week. So any suggestions here.

Lazy ramblings on Life/Poker through my eyes. Friday, February 22, 2008. Back on the Blog track. Just like Mike Myers returned to kill, Rocky returned to the ring, and Rambo returned to the jungle. I have returned to the rail and felt. I took a break after christmas, partly because my laptop gave up, and partly because I was in a rut. I game had stopped improving, well actually I stopped trying. Games Lump it on the double at over 3/2 (€100 euro returns €261). Banker. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
