Not many things in life are as nice as your own bed!!!! Got back home around 10.00am Monday slept till 17.00 said hello to the family, had something to eat then back to bed for 20.00 and didnt leave the bed till 15.00 the next day!!!Now thats what i call jet-lag. Did manage a few hours play yesterday, for some reason i ended up playing 30/60 FL on grandslam poker- this didnt last too long as the constant bollox soon brought me to my senses and i returned to NL 5/10 games this time at Mansion. Now Mansion as never been a favourite site of mine, for one thing or another it just never worked for me- that all changed in Vegas when i bumped into Gary Ingham there VIP manager. Ive know Gary for a few years now as he used to be a senior manager at Ladbrokes, he also comes from my home town Oldham thus hes obviously a good lad! Anyway in Vegas he did something that none of the other sites could be arsed doing- he looked after me and sold me Mansion! So true to my word i gave Mansion a roll yesterday and to my utter suprise it wasnt half as bad as i thought, so as of now Mansion is my new home.
Talking of moving sites one of the conversations i had with Sealey on the plane home was regarding his site (uncoverpoker) moving platform. The site had started life on the Bluesq network and after 2 1/2 years he thought it was time to move on so he gave his notice and sorted a new deal to move over to Boyle poker. Now when you have a skin the only thing of value is your player database, this is all you have as obviously there are no assets- unfortunetly for sealey when he came to move he also found out that he didnt even own these! He'd spent 2 1/2 years buliding his site, his data base and when he came to move he finds out that Bluesq own his database of players! fcuk me talk about not reading the small print!!!!!!! As Sealey put it, he has been well and truely shafted- poker is so sick in more than one way.
Good to see that a few of the badbeat traders/mentor have made it through to day 2 of the WSOP main event, naturally i wish them all the best of lucky but due to a saver intrest in Mr Reardon i hope he lasts the longest! Still not completely over the jet lag and as ive just had a good session at Masion (160BB up in 2 hours) i thing i will retreat to bed.
