It Had To End...

Unfortunately I failed to negotiate the numerous booby traps that are ever present in the Pigeons game last Sunday.

And I was undecided as to whether to play the regular Tues game or the monthly £50, at Nortons... in the end, I couldn't be bothered to play either!

Running total unchanged at £116.

And The 'Run Good' Continues...

I would have liked to post some sort of report detailing how I 'totally outplayed' them all at Norton's last night, but unfortunately I had one [or more] too many San Miguels and don't really remember much about it!!

Current total £116.

Live Poker Challenge For CF Charity

In memory of my good friend Rich Stevenson, who died on May 23rd 2012.

For those that didn't know Rich, you can get an insight into his genius and his views on life; and death! on his two blogs -  http://la-boca-de-la-cueva.blogspot.com/ and previously http://voyporustedes.blogspot.com/ 

Rich and I usually swopped 10% when we played in the same tournament. So I will donate 10% of all live poker tournament winnings, for 12 months (Jun 12 – May 13), to a Cystic Fibrosis charity (to be determined after speaking to Rich's mum).

Having all but given up online poker and also not having played much live (except for The pigeons game) there had not much to blog about... not that anyone reads it anyway!! But, having satellited into the Blonde Bash tournament at DTD in June.. and finishing 4th of 60'odd.. I have kinda got the urge to play some more.

So for the next 11 months I will use the blog to keep a record of the running total raised for the charity.

Current total £82.

Jun 9th Blonde Bash 10, DTD £4.50* NLHE 4th for £311 (*Online Sat)
Jun 17th The Pigeons, Witney £11 NLHE  No return
Jul 1st The Pigeons, Witney £11 NLHE  No return

Jul 15th The Pigeons, Witney  £11 NLHE 1st for £60

May the 'Run Good' continue!!
