Festive Period!

Been a while since my last post, just been super busy (both poker) and other extra curricular activities! (Very exciting and fun, but poker still my first love :P)

Updates first, played the satellite for Bristol (played so bad, just never got going and did not qualify (always next year!)

Tourney results, continue to do very well at local Thursday £50 freezeout game, it's a 10k starting stack, blinds start 50/100 with a 30 min clock. As close to deepstack as u will find in my local casino, and kind of takes the donkey factor out of the game. Cashed in it pretty much every week, last Thursday got heads up, had chip lead and did a deal.

Cash Results: Can't remember a losing week both live and online, so will just keep grinding away there, I plan on taking a shot soon at $5-$10 NLHE, I will be doing this when I am feeling good, everything else out the way so I can sit down clear headed and play my A-Game. Will post results here GOOD OR BAD :D So watch this space!!

Coming plans, goals and games....

Sure there is a tournament on xmas eve!! haha (BUT I WILL NOT BE PLAYING ANY TOURNAMENTS OR CASH GAMES UNTIL SATURDAY 27th (AT THE EARLIEST!)

Options......

Saturday 27th December £100 (plus one add/on or rebuy) game in International Casino Aberdeen, 5pm kick off. Generally a good game, plenty of dead money, had decent results up there. However, have night out with a lot of the guys I play football with on the same night. So may decide to have a social life and miss that one.

Sunday 28th December £250 deepstack (2 day tournament in Maybury Edinburgh) sure I will just play this one instead, spoke with Ally the manager regards structure, said 20k starting stack which is a monster stack, 40-45 min clock, so a lot of the luck/donk/ factor should be removed. Will play this one as I have not played a large 2-day tourney since Edinburgh GCBPT, and will be good practice, as I plan on playing more events next year (GUKPT and GCBPT'S)

I was gonna fill this post with goals for 2009 etc, but I am going to wait. I don't want to post something that I am not 100% committed to, so gonna have a think and if i post them in February then so be it!

Every new day is a chance to reset and change or go in another direction, it saddens me why so many people wait until January the 1st, do something today ;)

Good Luck, and I hope Santa is good to everyone, and the xmas elves keep bad beats to a minimum.

Merry Xmas.
