Sunday donkaments

Amber and Heather away - check
Internet on - check
Laptop on - check
Day of poker - double check

Aim for the few days the family are away is to play as much poker as I can, including hitting the Western Club as many times as possible. The plan was to go today, tomorrow, find a cheap freezeout on Wednesday and go Thursday but this is already looking unlikely as I have to bowl tomorrow and they're coming back Thursday. I may not find a suitable game on Wednesday which leaves tomorrow nights the last one for the week!

Anyway, started the day off with a few games on Stars where my best result was 90ish in the $8 rebuy, but I collected enought to make a profit for the day. That finished around 7pm for me and then I had to wash up then spend about 15 mins trying to get the chickens back into the coop. Rushed out, then hit traffic on the M4. At 8:30, I'd just pulled off the M4 on to the north circular which was thankfully clear. Made it there 10 mins late but they were running behind so it was all ok.

Started off nicely, picking up AK early on and managed to get some chips of the guy to my right who had AQ. Then disaster hit. Same guy raised to 600 preflop on the button. There were two callers, I looked at QQ and called. Flop came 9 high so I bet 1500 into the pot. He pushed and for 900 more, I had to call. Needless to say, he had KK. Down to 1400, called a preflop raise on the bb with 88, flop came 6 high so I pushed, ran into JJ. Not my night, out before it was dark! Bit disapointed as I was hoping to win some nice cash tonight after doing most of my cash at Ascot yesterday.

Back home to Stars. there's a tourney starting at midnight that I may play in that I like the look off, but in the mean time, I seem to have joined a limit game (again) by mistake!

Edit: damn, not only is it limit, it's not the game I ment to join - it's a 750 fpp sat, I ment to play the $4 rebuy!
