Pity it was wasted on someone of my limited knowledge Tony. I didn't know who it was and was trying to think it through logically. I really should have considered the East End gangsters of your youth.
Quite a story
Bbmike mentioned the other day that I seem to be pretty good at getting out of holes I find myself in and end up making some cash.
I think I prefer how it's gone tonight. Way less stressful.
'Do as I say, not as I do'
Considering that I've often said to Dev that if things are going well we should carry on, I didn't listen to my
own advice and stopped after 6 games.
Played 6 won 6. £117 profit, just ran great. Should have carried on but I'm weak willed and I couldn't turn down the pub when I got a text.
This was meant to be a high volume month but it's not happened at all up to now. Only played 4 days so far as I've had a few things on. Only got 36 Dyms in so far but with an average stake of just over £20 points add up quickly. If I ever get round to a proper month, I think 15-20k points wouldn't be too difficult.

Spot update
Still bloody there. Just about able to go out in public now. Obviously only when it gets dark, mind.
...
England have just gone 1 up. Bit of a surprise but then I realised that we're just playing a team of Swiss celebrities, to give us a chance. Didn't know that Shakira was Swiss
I won 3 out of my 1st 4 Dyms. I was a little disgruntled that I lost the one £33 I played.
So, I played some more. Oops
I won the fine sum of 3 more games. This was out of another 12 I played. Whereas I ran really well last night, tonight was the opposite.
So the hole was well and truly dug.
The Dyms dried up and so moved on to a mix of 30, 40 and 50nl. Not normally a great idea as I'm a bit rubbish at cash.
Started wonderfully though. Made a very disguised 2nd nuts 3rd or 4th hand in. Pity that he had the even more disguised super nuts. 1 buy in gone
Then, things turned round a little. I had Aces v Queens and won! stuff like that. Even someone as bad as me at cash was able to win a few pots. Realised it was time to pack up for the night when I started playing even more like a xxxx than usual. Flatted Ivans raise on the button with AKss. Nice play Paul!
Ended up getting myself out of the hole and up £3.27 in profit for the night. Awesome! Well it certainly was when at one stage including Dyms regged for, my balance was down £334 on the night.
Started at 8.30. At 9.15 I was £20 up. At 01.14 I'm £3.27 up. Should have listened to Dev. Book the win next time Jac.
Reward points good, I make it 401 on the night.
....
Fun Dym hand of the night was a first hand exit. My plays pretty bad but my opponents? hmmm
I have AKss in BB. Utg makes it 60 and button calls. I can prob flat here at this stage but I 3bet to 200. Utg passes and button calls. My notes on button are not complimentary(gotta try and excuse my play somehow!)
Flop is 789 with 2 spades. With the nut flush draw I lead for 200 and he 3bets to 670. At this stage I can prob fold but I do the "fxxk it" thing and decide to get it in. Opponent has J3(no spades). 10 on turn, Buggger!

Spot is maybe starting to disappear. Must be getting better as I dared to go out in daylight today.
I always enjoyed my trips to the Algarve.
Beautiful weather and loads of courses to choose from.
Maybe worth a look?
3/11 that he will moan.
I wont post on here again.
To back Jac up I've always found Matt to be pure evil. He once stole my last Rolo. Yes, THE LAST ONE. I also have a recording of him teasing budgerigars with a single seed hanging from a tiny rod stapled to their heads, the lovely looking seeds just out of their reach. He also steals from the poor to give to the rich. And he's actually six foot seven in height but only pretends to be short so he can get into cinemas half price.
Jac, Matt's a top bloke imo. The thing is at SPTs and UKPCs people mix and mingle, I've never seen anyone blank or shun anyone at a SPT. But people are people, some are shy and unsure, some times people just don't notice everything and everyone who is about or trying to say hello. And generally at these things, speaking for myself, some times we've had a few. Not speaking for Matt but speaking for myself there have been a few spots where I go to a new SPT or something similar, see someone and think 'Did I meet that person before or am I going mad?' And suddenly you start staring over but never actually go up to someone and say 'Do I know you?' in case you do but forgot and therefore would be worried about offending them. In other words poker players such as myself are not brilliant at social interaction, we make mistakes. You probably have in the past as has Matts, therefore silly little misunderstandings like this happen. Come say hello or I'll try to find you at the next one, we can all have a drink together and discuss all the correct reasons to hate Matt.
