So near yet so far....


Attempt number three to win a seat at the Virgin Poker Festival, in an online satellite, saw 32 people taking part in the $10 + $1 tournament. With one seat for every $210 this meant only 1st place got the target prize, with second place, that'll be me then, taking the odd $110.

On reflection I think the luck, good & bad, evened itself out in this tournament... it's just hard to take when the good luck comes early - and you pick up some small, inconsequential pots - and the bad luck comes right at the end and you lose all your chips in a couple of bad(ish) beats!!

Well, that, as they say, is poker. At least the $100 profit will pay for a few more attempts.
