Hooray for open shoving

It seems everyone seems to be doing it recently, and its obviously profitable as I am the idiot that keeps calling them! I have had 2 nights like that in the last week, so note to self don’t call!

Having said that I did have a profitable Friday night, helped by Welchy, as he recommended I joined a table with spewtastic player in the name of “candlestich”. Whilst the hands below aren’t all that fascinating it kind of shows he was just either betting, betting, betting or calling, calling, calling. Whilst I was there he released himself of 7 buyins, and as G1lly was sat there with $200+ I’m gueesing he did at least 10 buyins.

I  got a double up and a bit extra off him but would have been nice to be G1lly as he ran like god against him which was unfortunate for me :P !

The reason for the mention of Welchy is that he one of only a couple of players that I respect at NL25. The other being Kickmypuppy who has also dropped back down to NL25, although thankfully I don't think he'll be down here for long!

Also played a Stage 1 Masters last week and now have a Stage 3 so may give that a whirl this week to try and qualify for only my 2nd Masters. I don’t remember the 1st as I was too drunk playing it.

Talking of satellites, ,y thought process for them is very wrong, as they are 1 in 6 qualify it would annoy me if it took 6 attempts, as you may as well have just bought in direct. I know its not how i should look at it but it is, which is why if I try I always start at the low stage 1

Away from poker, well I say away, went out Saturday to watch the England rugby team lose to South Africa, which was unfortunate but the South Africans were brutal! I then ended up playing with a couple of friends, that I wasn’t overly excited at playing against as I normally make a drunken spazout, costing me money I’m trying to save, but thankfully it was one of the other 2 that did it this week.

And a great draw in the 1st Test of The Ashes, especially given our position at the end of day 3. Although didn’t get to watch any of it due to having no Sky and ungodly hours that its on.
