played the britBlogger on sunday night. not exactly been a regular attendee, so it was good to join in the fun, again. not sure all the other players would agree …
anyways, my starting table was super tough. and … the special guest, surflexus was sat to my left … fawk me and thank you stars, bastards
interesting game. mostly for my donkitude but the others were kind and didn’t call me to book to often. suppose it could have been worse, surflexus could have been sat on my right. it was of course quite interesting in the chat box …. since i was donking along in a pl08 bingo game .. and typing comments in the wrong chat box, meh !!
ok, hands of note … what do you mean, you cant be fucking bothered ?? ok ok i came second, happy ?
right, ten mins in and surf raises and proudly shows the hammer when all fold. one hand later … he does it again ! oh man, tough game ahead or what. two mins later surf catches a couple of players napping when he hits a set on the turn, ouch. not much happening for me when i picked up AJ and made a loose call for half my stack when stan shoved all-in for 680 and flips over 99 … the obligatory ace on the flop was good for me and stars really rubbed it in when i rivered the straight, gg stan.
that got me to 2k but mr surf was sitting with 3.5k. his aggro style cost him though, getting called by a shortie and then folding to a re-raise and both of us suddenly have exactly 2115 each … weird or what.
mik takes out oenone on a 5JQ flop … mik had the queen, oenone had the jack.
i thought i had mik on the flop when i re-raised his c-bet and he says hmm flush draw .. lets go … and folds !! had u there mate
mair comments -where did u get all those chips ? ha ha not for long … i immediately run into surfs flopped two pair, just managing to barely control the size of the pot by betting every street he collects a nice 725 pot, doh !
mik ” i think surf is his nemesis”
me ” lol we’ll see ”
i was thinking - oh fuck, oh fuck, thats me royally shafted. lol go read his blog, check out the stakes he plays !!
but poker is a funny game. very next hand my AQ v surfs TJ and i’m good for a 950 pot. the board dot real drawey on the turn and paired on the river ffs and my one thought ? shit !! surf v kindly only min bet the river which i was way to much of a woose to push, opting for the cheap call, ready to surrender my chips …
dremeber then doubled to 2600 when his AQ was too much for A4 and surf got real short not long after dropping to t350 or so. and then i had him !!
my AQ v AT and i flop top two … lol he rivers a straight for … t666 chips
then dremeber AK fell to mair’s 88 … lol gg … except drem had three times as many chips as mair !! surf picks up more chips from this here donk when his AK hits top pair on the flop and i dont have sense to fold until his river bet, meh
oh dear, chased my flush to the river, missed but hit top pair taking a nice pot, sorry mair. immediately after that we hit the final table ……

Yeah me too! Enjoyed that mate. Yeah you took me off my draw, I can’t chase vs a rock! ;o) I have no implied odds, you are not bad ebnough to pay me if I hit!
Surf was crazy loose, but obviously a good player.
So come champ! we are waiting….
