Slight success
Played a few freerolls in order to get a bankroll on the go. I entered one with 4200 ish other entrants and managed 50th for $1.70, gotta start somewhere i guess. Not sure whether too use that on micro cash and try grind it up or whether to invest it in a tourney and hope i make the money. Will see how it goes this week. Also, 100th post :)

Back playing
I haven't updated this blog in a long time now, mainly due to the fact that i haven't been playing poker at all, i've been in Tenerife working in bars. However i am back home now, not sure how long for but i intend on making a roll and giving it a realy good go. I miss playing so much so i'm going to make some rules to follow in order to keep my roll.
Wish me luck!
Wish me luck!

Continued wins for others
Played more on my Dad's account for him, and have so far made over $100. Played some more cash over doubling the buy in on two occasions. Also played a 10 player $10 SnG for him which i won for a $40 profit. I seem to play alot better with his money as i don't lose the head when i get sucked out on etc, i just take it and play on, because i don't wish to lose his money as a result of my recklessness. It's weird not tilting for once!

Poor day...for me..
Busted off the $50 that i built it up to within a day. From the start of the day i didn't really feel comfortable playing, and i dunno why i kept on, maybe boredom. However my dad has an account on PKR and said for me to have a go on there for him and see if i can make some money, so i did. Started on a 15c/25c with around $35 and left the table with about $84 i think so not a bad bit of poker. One notable hand was when i picked up 44, i raised it up, and 3 callers. Flop came 894 with 2 spades, one guy raised before me, i re-raised, and 2 called. Turn was a 10, one of the ones i didn't want to see tbh. Guy checked, i raised, and got re-raised by about $2 because someone pushed all-in for there last amount, the other guy called, as did i. River 8 giving me the boat, guy pushed and i called. One had JQ and another had a missed nut flush draw. Thank you river, although i don't feel sorry for the other guy because whats he doing calling a re-raise on the flop with a gutshot with 2 others in the hand. gg

Roll..
Started a fresh small roll in Full Tilt by Starting with $20. Played a bit of small cash last night but ended up just above even. I then played one $5 SnG and took it down for $14 profit to add to the roll. I'm gonna play plenty more of these as there easy enough.

Bonus Play
Got £20 from the new littlewoods site, lost that in a $80 or so pot when a fish called my $4 raise pre and $6 c-bet, when i have AA, and he has 73o, hits a 3 on the flop, i check the turn to get more action on riv, he hit another 3...Whats worse is he hit and run!
Just released £10 Bonus from Partypoker, that went quickly too, when i call-raised all-in pre with jj, he then called my all in with A8s and hits his ace of course. I've then deposited £25 which i'm trying to spin up. I did double it earlier, but then made a bad timed bluff and went back to starting stack. The table is so loose and fishy, so i'm just trying to sit back abit, which isn't how i like to normally play, but gotta do whatever makes the most money i guess.
edit: Got it to £65, then got another £10 bonus. I removed £40, giving me at least £15 proff. I sat at the table with the rest, lost it all when i raised UTG with QQ, BB who was fukin awful at poker might i add re-raised all in, i called he has AK, low board until the king on the river. That was his only play that i'm not that annoyed about, the others, well...just plain disgusting.

Bit of live
Went to chester with Ed to see few mates on Wednesday, we went out and got lashed that night, which was pretty good fun, and on the Thursday night we went to Rileys and played a small tourney, i come fucking 4th when Bluescousyfishywishy knocked me out on the final tarb, i was shortstacked and pushed on the button with AKo, and it folded to him, and he just looked at me, smiled and said soz mate i gotta call, and turned AQ, then went "ohhh", lol...however that f00kin queen came for him on the turn of course lol, and that was me. Ed went on to win it.
We also did some pool betting whilst we were there, and i played quite good at the start and was up for a bit, then managed to play awful and lose about 20 bananas, oh well, all good fun lol.

50p/£1
Sat at one table of 50/1 tonight with £25, got it up to £94 before leaving, removed £69 and have now sat at another table trying to spin that up. Hoping i do the same tbh and get a super hot run of cards =)
Apart from that, haven't really played. Going Chester on Wednesday to see a mate, and we're all going out on the lash, and think we're gonna go play some pokes on Thurs. Should be a good laugh, and hopefully, a profitable one ;)

Mixed results..
Managed to bust off that money i left in my account to play with. It was when me and one other were all in on the flop when i had a set of tens and he had an open ended straight draw and hit on river.
Today entered a freeroll with 2000 people in on Party poker, came 89Th for $10. Last hand was when i had QQ and i didn't have many chips at all, so pushed and got called by J10o and K7, board came 67389, and that was that.
Put that $10 all on a 10c/25c table and busted fairly early when i pushed on a 236 flop with 88 and got insta called with KK...:/ oh well...not a lot i could do there.
I've been playing on Party poker since last night, and really do like it, it's full of fish and i enjoy playing on there, so looking to create my main roll on there next =)

Made some...Party on
I didn't listen to myself and take a break lol. Instead, i created an account on Partypoker (GD4S_). I managed to spin £25 upto £121. I was managing to win small pots here and there when the table was full, then everyone left just me and this other guy HU. I took alot off of him, he left, another joined, and i cleared him out. Last hand, i made quads on the river which in turn gave him a full house, i made a suspicious overbet which put him all-in, he insta called and insta mucked lol.
I'm now currently playing on another table, and have already turned £25 upto £60, what a great start to Partypoker!

Roll jizzed off
Yeah, after so many bad beats recently, i kinda went crazy, and of course, my tilts are of a vertical sort! Gonna take another break and try and re-start a roll, it's not so bad, because my $300 roll was all profit i made, although i don't like losing it!
I'm pretty fed up of the fish out there, makes you feel like going on a wild rampage lol. But i guess, when the tables aren't screwing you over, your glad they are there because their the one's who'll pay you off. So i guess I'm really more annoyed at the online tab's paying these guys off =)
As for the job front, still not got one, although i have an interview on Monday as a debt collector lol. Moneys money!

Bad day
Just one of them shit days today, been unlucky so many times, its unreal. Done a load of SnG's, but everytime have done awful, fish calling with shit and getting lucky. So annoying.
I'm down about $40 atm, but am gonna take a break, and try recover the loss slowly tomorrow, not now whilst im tilted.

Level day
Not a great day today. I started off well, winning the first couple sng's i played, but i then had a massive stroke of bad luck, i was always getting unlucky. Like when i push with QQ when its down to HU in one sng, and get called with Q7 only for him to hit a straight etc etc. My roll went down to $130 ish, and i was a bit fed up of sng's, so i sat at 3 tables of 10c/25c and managed to bring the roll back upto around $170.
I should realy stop going on cash as it could seriously damage my slow grinding roll at some stage, but for now it's ok. I may do a cash table here and there from now on, but i still mainly want to focus on $5 sngs for now.
On a non-poker front, i'm out of the Army now, and need a job lol. So unless i become a millionaire within the next month =) it's job hunt time!

43rd :/ but small cash
Littlewoods tourney didn't go to plan, came a lame 43rd out of 204 after my QQ lost to AK when the king came on the river, sucks. But not too worry, didn't cost me anything.
After this i played another $5 SnG which i won, and decided to play some small cash with Hellboy on 10c/25c level. I know i said i wasn't gonna play cash but i didn't see the harm, and decided to just do it for a little while. Managed to leave the cash table with a total roll of $150, up from $112 earlier. Not a bad profit again today. Looking forward to what tomorrow brings!

Further Sucess
I have been playing $5 SnG's all day today, and had a mixed result, winning some, 2nd placing some and missing on the money a few times too, i was playing two 6 seater sng's when i thought i'd try a $5 45 seater, i managed to take that down for a nice $85, bringing the total roll upto $162 since yesterday. I'm now going to withdraw the $50 i first deposited and play with the profit, and try and make the best of it, doing nothing but $5 sngs for the meantime.
I feel my game has realy improved recently, and i hope this continues, i'm going to play a few more tonight, ive also got the £7k GTD i qualified for yesterday on littlewoods, and im hoping for a result in that too =)

SnG For now
Have had various swings recently, playing all different levels of cash, even had a small live game, which mainly involved cash PLO, most went too bed after a few hours, but me and Bluescouse stayed up for hours and hours playing HU lol, he eventually ended up against me that night, but the morning after, i spun my £10 buy-in up to around £45 in a small game, so got my own back =)
Recently deposited $50 into Full-tilt, I'm only going to play $5 Sng's, Ive played a few tonight, a total of 7, under the alias 'tomkendal', and i had a total of three 2nds, two 1sts, and two no cashes, for a total of $32 profit this evening.
Ive also just got a place in the Lucky £7k using my mpps in a satelite, 99 entries and top 6 get places.
So not a bad start tonight, hope this performance continues.
