Part Two











So the main event had finished and myself and booder decided to go for a nice and cheap 90 min sweedish massage, and then pop to the hotel bar for a bit of snap and a few beers.


We got talking to a nice american bloke who seemed to have been there done that, got the T-shirt. If youve been to tenerife he's been to elevenerife etc... He invited myself booder and tracy to macau horse races the next day and as this would be the last time we had a chance to visit, we thought it folly to refuse.

So that was the plan then , couple more beers bet and up earlyish, bout mid-day for the races.

Plans dont always go according to plan with me however and i decided to put a mammouth drinking/online poker session in. i got no sleep and was like a walking zombie come the races.



























I made a smallish profit at the races, booder lost. I got a maccy D's on the way home and set my alarm for 2:00am about the time the decent tournies started accross the sites.


Stayed up till about 1:00pm when i took down the $100 fo on bluesq for abut $4k, which saw a now infamous picture of me lazing about playing.


















The next day i played the $500 daily freezout at the casino, and played really well, ammassing a load of chips 2 tables out (70 started) until i clashed with the othr big stack at my table after i 3-bet him preflop with TT and he 4-bet pushed, i decided he was full of it and was up against A3 he spiked and i was crippled. Managed to get to the final but only 6 spots paid and i crashed out in 8th after one of the many cardracks on the table woke up with JJ after id pushed over the top of a button raiser with 97s.


Tuesday the 27th novemeber was out last full day so we went out to a few casino's, The palms, Star city, for a few drinks, and then to Mortons steak restuarant for the best steak ive ever had. A few bottles of red and we were ready for a good kip for the long trip back.


Was a brilliant time over there and i'll be trying my bollocks off to qualify for this years, which isnt far away.






On monday i took down the stars $55fo 100k for $19,100 Which is my best online result for quite a while. Im upto 17th in the pocketfives Uk rankings. Im still struggling a little on full tilt for some reason with only a 3% ROI over 566 tournies. On stars i have a 90% ROI over 1600, so im either overperforming on one or underperforming on the other. Time will tell i suppose.

Next week im going to play the 1st mini festival at Dusk Till Dawn where there is a £750 fo main event, a £220 side event and lots of cash action. One time please. I'll try and keep this blog updated more often now.

So far this year online im $52k in profit from stars, $1,300 lol from tilt, $5,200 from Ipoker , $2300 from party, which isnt ad considering the shitty start to the year i had. Those close to me will know what i mean.
Rick.
