I wasn’t able to get much hands in over the weekend because I was too busy running around a hotel like a headless chicken looking for things to take pictures of and then I was absolutely shattered for the past two days because of all the work I did! Today saw my first venture onto the poker tables in a few days. What I needed to instil confidence in my game was a heater, God knows I’m due one!

Instead, I couldn’t help but feel that someone at Carlospoker has flicked my doomswitch in the hopes that I won’t be able to clear my deposit bonus! I had 4 hours of fun, and by fun I mean excruciating pain! A few hands of note was when I flopped top set on a 6-3-4 board and got it all in against two other players for a $75 pot which is quite considerable playing at .10/.20 blinds! Both players had overcards and were drawing dead, or so I thought. The turn brought a 2 and the river brought a 5 meaning we were chopping it up! OUCH! I then got it all in with 44 on a KK4 board versus another two players, one with 88 and the other with K8. Turn was a ten and so was the river! I nearly got sick everywhere!

Tonight there’s a $3000 Guaranteed Tournament on Bodog for all those who attended the Waterford Open during the weekend. I lodged €20 onto the site and registered, leaving $9 in spare change. I sat into a .10/.25 table with what I had left and without having to showdown a hand found myself with $26! I then doubled up when someone tried to bluff the river with a busted 4-high flush draw! Bodog seems to be stuck in time as far as the standard of play is concerned - it’s great!

So amazingly, I’m up for the day which I’m quite impressed with! I’ll play the Waterford Open Online tournament tonight and hopefully I’ll have something to brag about on here tomorrow - for once!
