  • 21st June 2010

    Once again its been far too long since my last post, jes nearly 2 months!!!!!! Unlike last time though its not because ive been running bad and thus not wanting to write about, its actually be the complete opposite, no the reason for the lack of posts...
  • 10th May 2010

    Been a long long time since my last post! And well the reasons are pretty bloody obvious! Ive been losing and don’t want to write about it!!! Positive though positive results don’t happen by talking and re running my badbeats, my hard luck stories and...
  • March 24th 2010

    The posts have been few and far between over the last 4-6 weeks, but well I think I got good excuses! The obvious reason is Oliver, jes I cant believe id forgotten just how tough it is having a baby in the house, feeding him every 3 hours 24 hours a day...
  • March 4th 2010

  • 15th February 2010

  • 3rd February 2010

    First month of the year and im off to the perfect start! A 30 buy in plus month, 50,000 raked hands and I bagged the $5k live event rake bonus. To be honest at the mid levels that I play I know this isn’t anything special, it’s a good solid month, that...
  • 25th January

  • 2010! Happy New Year!!

    So a quick review of 2009, put simply 2009 has been a great year for me, sure I didn’t get my hands on a big live win but apart from that its been good! The bread and butter of online cash play: after a real slow start (mid January I was -$14,000) I got...

  • December 7th

    Its been a strange old start to December. The month started with a couple of coolers that quickly put me on the back foot, but this was followed by two pretty awful days of play by my good self! The fact that I played so awful is compounded by the fact...
