What better to way to end a tough month than to win a European Oline Championship !!!!!!!!!!!! Well thats what i did in the ealry hours of this morning winning the Ladbrokes european online championship of fixed limit poker and i feel bloody great!!!!!!!!! The last few months have been hell for me in cyberland with bad luck being compounded with bad play. The last couple of weeks ive started to see a little light at the end of the tunnel and a return to if not the "A" game certainly my B+ game..............but this hadnt materialised into hard cash, until last night of course! It was only a $12,000 pay day but the way things of gone for me lately it feels like a $1,000,000! I finally record a winning month and also fill a big chunk of the deep hole in the P&L, and not forgetting that my ego also gets a little taste as i can now add European FL online champion to my other online title that i won in pot limit in 2006!!!!!! Big thanks have to go to my mentor at badbeat Manuel and badbeats MD John Conroy- its been a tough time for me be these two have backed me and helped me through the worst of it, gentlemen i thankyou!!! Also big thanks to all the sickos who stayed up till 03.00 this morning supporting me, thankyou all very much, but seriously you had nothing better to do !!!!!!!!!? I do belive i deserve a pint or two !!!!!!!!!!! Bye.

Nice one mate - took your advice on how to play this - when I asked what was the best way to play such a tourny you replied in one word "pissed" - I did and it all fell nicely into place after about 3 hours when I fell nicely into bed!!

God knows how you can play Fixed Limit MTTs mate - personally I got so bored I even listened to the missus for once :)

Very well played bud - no point asking but dare I suggest the beers are on you next time?
