Kind of sad for this year to end to be honest, each month my win ratio was getting better and better. Hardly played in December which I thought would happen anyway but still recorded a nice profit of $9200 + must have made about $4000 from gambling.
The new year starts in 20 minutes and my only resolution is to spend less! I have my car, now its time to save up for more important stuff and sort my life out.
I hope to make $100k+ next year and try and spend as little of it as possible! If I can just sort myself out on poker stars I could easily increase that figure by 50% but it will take about 3 months to get sorted on there for the way I play my games.
Just 1 holiday planned for this year and that's to Thailand. I am going to see how the internet is out there for online poker. If it's good I may buy a place out there.
A big congratulations must go out to Azimut who on the final day of the year reached Supernova Elite on PokerStars. A huge achievement which took a lot of grinding for which he now sees the big rewards for.
So the targets are, win $100k and spend less! So each months target is $8333 I will post each month my results on the side.
Happy new year

Amsterdam for Christmas
Ended up arguing with the family a few days before Christmas so I thought fuck this and booked a flight to Amsterdam. Stayed there for 3 nights and I am just in the airport on the way back now. Done ok on the poker, played 2 nights and won £1600 which just about covers my expenses. Won a bit betting just before I left and lost it back in Amsterdam after I tilted when my phone took forever trying to get a bet on West Brom who eventually won so I tilted and put it on shitty bets :(
Amsterdam was good, everywhere open on Christmas day, just got drunk, my mate got high and I couldnt find any Mushrooms so that pissed me off but we just sat in the hotel bar drinking cocktails and then got some work done on Football Manager. I also tried frogs legs for the first time, they were better than I expected really, just taste like prawns. Wont have them again though there just wasnt enough there and it was pretty expensive :(
Got my car just the other day too, truly amazing! So much better than the previous cars I have had and the speed out of it is great. Cant wait to rag it about in the summer.
Thinking about going to Egypt for new year, all depends how well I do on the poker over the next few days. If I can win about £2k in the next 3 days I will think about booking it and going on new years eve.
Anyways time to get on my plane, gl and happy Christmas.

Challenge concentration
Done something I said I wouldnt do since last year..............
I bought Football Manager 2010!
Really bad move, it's so addictive it is taking over from poker already after 2 days. I must have spent about 15 hours straight on it last night and then more today. I tried to play poker in between but lost $1000 almost instantly just not focusing. Told my mate I would play till about 7pm today then I was going to bed so I could wake up and play poker without being distracted and done just that. Ended up getting the $1000 back plus $700 more so not a bad day.
Gambling has 100% taken over this month, I won thousands early this month and lost a lot of it back and meanwhile poker has taken a back seat. I have managed to change this a bit lately. I am $7000 up on poker so far this month and played so few games.
In America I was playing 1300+ games a month, this month I have played 370 so far and earned nearly the same amount so I must be playing better but I am wondering if its quality of quantity or I could actually be making a lot more if I played more.
I do really need to go to somewhere on the other side of the world so that the time zone suits poker. I prefer playing Americans, the Europeans are so boring and nitty it tilts me so I need to be somewhere when either I am on the same clock as them or places like Asia where 9am is night time in USA.
Anyways my car comes on Tuesday and I have a new internet connection being installed on Monday (no more thieving my blinds when I am dc bitches) and then I need to sort out the Christmas food etc. BAH HUMBUG

Challenge Poker Stars
I really cant get into Poker Stars at the moment, I dont like the lobby or anything about it really. To try and motivate myself to get involved on there I am going to set myself a challenge.
Whilst waiting for games on Fulltilt I am going to have the poker stars lobby open and try and build up from $10 games to $200 games. Hopefully this will help me get used to the lobby, blind structures, game speeds and software.
My challenge is as follows:
Start with 20 buyin's for $10 heads up games, play $10 games until I have 20 buyin's for $20 games, then enough for 20 $30 games and so on. So basically I need the balances to go like this:
$200 - $10 games
$400 - $20 games
$600 - $30 games
$800 - $40 games
$1000 - $50 games
$1600 - $80 games
$2000 - $100 games
$4000 - $200 games
I am not sure how long this will take me as obviously I will be concentrating more on Fulltilt as that's where the good money is for me. I am just hoping it will pass time, build up a good bank and get me interested in Poker Stars.
I have reset my name on sharkscope so that I can follow my progress better - Pirus82
So - Day 1 Pirus82 [Reset on ‘26-Oct-09 23:47 (GMT)’] 0 £N/A £N/A N/A% £N/A N/A N/A PokerStars SNG Only
Update - going to give it a few days first, played a few games and the slow structures and lobby annoyed the hell out of me. Glad they were only $10 games. I think I played 6 won 2 lost 4 or something like that. Struggling to even get a game to be honest, as soon as a player sits someone insta sits you cant even scope them :o

Mayweather vs Pacquiao March 13th HOPEFULLY!
It seems that this fight will be going ahead, I am so over the moon it's unreal! Waiting for the venue to be confirmed, hopefully Vegas but I would quite fancy New York also but as soon as it's confirmed I am booking.
Not sure who I want to win really, Pacman is the better human but I think Mayweather is the better fighter and deserves it. Either way they are both making $40m each from the fight so who really cares?

End of November
Shame its over really one of my best months so far! Had a good few days betting also towards the end, I think on the 30th I won £2000, everything I bet on won it was unreal.
Have not played as much as I would have liked since I have been back, in fact all I have been doing is sleeping really! Waking up, playing for 3 or 4 hours then going back to sleep, slowly starting to come out of that now and I think its down to the flu I had but I needed to catch up on sleep really anyway.
I came back to the UK with the plan I was going to save money and not spend I have done the total opposite..... eating out most nights buying things I don't need and I have just gone and bought a new home cinema system (tv, surround sound system, stand etc) and to top it off I have just gone and bought one of these.............
I got the sport edition, not sure if the one in the picture is the same, its due to arrive in 1-2 weeks I can't wait!
This month I just want to reach iron man and take in an average amount of winnings due to it being the festive season. Obviously I wont have as much time to play poker with shopping needed to be done, meals with families, drinks out etc but I am looking forward to staying sober new years eve and killing all the drunks at the tables.
I really can't get into stars at the moment the poker lobby is awful compared to fulltilt. I was really hoping it would be better so that I could reach some form of super nova on there. I am definitely not raking enough to hit any form of super nova elite but I wouldn't have minded hitting super nova and getting some bonuses.
Oh well back to the grind, GL!

Florida over with.....
Overall a good relaxing trip, Vegas was my best ever trip yet and I can't wait to go back for once. I ended finishing $18,000 up for the 2 months I was there. What is more important though is I have realised how much I can actually earn from poker. Before I left my daily targets were WAY low. I am now looking at 4 x my daily target now and that's before I start on stars. When I get on stars I hope to double that eventually.
Will be going back to Florida in the near future, already have my flights booked. Hope to go on a few holidays before then and maybe even Vegas again if Pacman fights in the near future.
Have had the flu for the last 4 days so not much poker has been played. I decided after Vegas I wouldn't withdraw again until I doubled my roll, I have done that now and made my first withdrawal today. Feels a lot more comfortable and anti tilting now that I have doubled the roll. Next step is to get money into stars and start my assault on there also.
$8250 up so far for this month and I hope to increase that by a hell of a lot more come the end of the month now I am back home on the PC with the big monitor and playing slightly higher stakes.
Oh well back to bed to catch up on some much needed sleep!

Vegas trip over with
Oh well back to boring old Florida :)
Probably my best Vegas trip so far and I actually came back with money in my pocket for once. Put in quite a lot of hours on the poker tables and roughly came out even which is a huge improvement for me considering I suck at live poker. Actually thought I played pretty well. Was very unlucky with some hands having to lay down kings, queens etc but if it was last year I was going broke with them sort of hands.
The boxing was amazing and will be 100% going to Pacmans next fight, hopefully against Mayweather! The Palazzo is by far the best hotel in Vegas in my eyes. I dont even think the Wynn comes even close to it.
Done well on roulette and OK on blackjack in fact the only thing I really lost on was sports betting on the boxing.
One thing has pissed me off though. We used the Palazzo to check in our luggage and when we got to the airport that night it didn't turn up. I had my car keys in the bag, my house key in the car so I was stranded at the airport.
Luckily had a spare set of house keys elsewhere so wasted $120 getting a taxi and now have to go back today to collect my luggage and the car.
I go back on Friday night but have already booked a flight back here soon! Dreading being in the cold, wet, dark miserable UK with the miserable people and the shit food and alcohol. The UK really is a shit place to live once you have gone elsewhere.

October Update
Had a proper FUCK MY LIFE moment today. £500 on Chelsea at evens, they go 1-0 down vs Athletico Madrid, anyways I put another £50 on at 14s with 20 mins left. They get one back so I login to my other betfair account as I have reached my deposit limit for the day, I put £50 in and throw that on Athetlico to cover just incase they score. Whilst doing this Chelsea score the moment my bet is matched, so thats £50 down the drain. Happy days though I have a huge green on Chelsea! I go to lay them @ 1.09 then realise that I am on the wrong account. Oopps.
No worries I login to the other account, press on the market and it doesnt load. I refresh the page 3 times and finally I get the market up. I put in my lay for 1.14 as Athetlico had a free kick, 2 seconds to go to match it and booooom Athetlico score with 30 seconds left of injury time. FUCK MY LIFE YOU BASTARDSSSSSSSSSS
Anyways, October was a great month. The calming influence of Azimut helped me get back on track with my poker and my profits have shot through the roof. He also gave me a great insight to stars and supernova elite. I am thinking about going for it next year but to be honest I may just spend another year grinding heads up games to build a decent enough roll to play stakes on stars where I wont have to play 24 hours a day to reach supernova elite.
Ended the month about $9000 up although I lost plenty of that to Azi the crazy golf pro hustler. Already up $3000 this month and I go to vegas in 8 days to watch the Pacman v Cotto fight. Can't wait! Just booked a suite at the Palazzo for 4 nights and managed to find direct flights from Florida to Vegas which is a touch really because I hate the 8 hours flights hanging about at other airports changing over planes etc.
I am looking forward to getting home really. I know it sounds mad but I miss my pets and nephew and I am looking forward to sitting infront of a big screen with a big mouse and a big keyboard with no annoying laptop in sight. I might just smash this one up on the last day because there have been days out here I have been dying to do it but have stopped myself. I will miss this place as soon as I leave but I will be back here very very soon and hopefully for a lot longer :)!

Quick Catchup
Not been paying much attention to this lately mainly because of Florida. Love it out here so much. The way of life, prices, customer service, people, weather - EVERYTHING! USA is the greatest country in the world.
September I really did not play much.... the 18 days counting up to my flight were slow and depressing and spent most of my time not really having the mental urge to play poker once I got here I played for a week, done well and Punterz friend came out and we done a lot of shit for a few weeks so never had much time to play really. I made about $4000 on poker but made about £4k on football betting. However I lost half of that on bastard NFL bets when running into the sickest luck ever. Not to mention about 4 or 5 accumulators losing in the last minute for anything from £700-£1k.
Started this month GREAT went $2750 up in no time whatsoever then ran into the sickest luck ever. I swear I was thinking it was fixed at some point. AK to any Ace rag losing - Aces all in pre losing Kings to ace rag and KJ losing getting it in with 2 pair on the flop and losing v 1 pair, everyone hitting non stop flushes etc anything that could go wrong did go wrong.
I seem to be over the worst now, I went from $2750 up to $1000 down. I am now up $1500 for the month which is OK but sick really if I never had that disgusting run I could be up anything now. With rakeback its about $2500 so its not all that bad. I haven't gambled much this month. Had a bet on MLS so I could watch it on the TV here, Chivas I had to win, they were 1-0 up and conceded in the 87th min or something, same shit but wait! They get a 93rd min penalty and .............. MISS! FUCK MY LIFE
Anyway Punterz has gone home for a week and is coming back out next week as is Azimut so its going to be gambling heaven next week so I am doing my best to save up so I can hustle them all at crazy golf as I am the undisputed crazy golf champion and always will be!
Just having a few martini's before bed, felt like shit yesterday and ended up having 14 hours sleep, feel a bit spaced out today but just glad I am not coming down with anything because that's what it felt like.
Anyway I will get some photos up when I can be bothered for all the people who don't read this blog.

End of month review
Well not such a bad month overall, it could have been much better if it wasn't for Tiger Woods blowing up costing me around £3000 in profits and bets and head fucking change of mind that cost me £4k in bets and profits on the footy but overall a good month and I am happy with it considering I go away in just over 2 weeks it was much needed!
With me being in America in a few weeks and having lots of time on my hands I hope to make a lot more this month. Just hope I don't have any tilt sessions. I am booked to go to Vegas in November to watch the Pacman v Cotto fight - I cant wait!
Hopefully Azimut and Animal will come out to Florida for a visit also if they do it will be a great laugh. After Florida this year I will really have to put some effort in to get back into the gym and get fit again. Totally unfit and starting to get out of shape too. Going to let myself go in America although I hope to be doing weights every day but when I come back I will limit drinking to going out only and hammer the gym 5 times a week once my body becomes used to it.
Oh well 14 days, 22 hrs, 23 mins until your next flight with us... COME ON!!

Mid month update
Got back my poker losses + a bit more had a bad few days though and done about $1k. Was up £2k on footy bets this weekend and managed to lose it all on Woods. Somehow after being 4 shots ahead after 2 days and 2 shots ahead on the final day he lost and played shite. Never seems to win when I back him :(
Paid for the car in florida and now only need $1500 more to pay for the rest of the villa then I am all set. Got a lot of work to do though $1500 + my $1k back + some spending money in the next 30 days is going to be stressful when I am not playing well.

End of month - thank god!
No idea where I ended up this month!! The fact that sharkscope was down for about a week when I was flying on the poker kinda fucked up my tracking of it all. It says I am £765 down for the month but I reckon I am about £2k up on poker + rakeback and bonuses which is pretty shite really. Lost about £2k on gambling so I probably broke even this month but I have no idea and to be honest I am just glad the month is over.
August is proving to be a good month so far, I have to really put the hours in now to pay for florida I am hoping to have the car paid off by next week and then I have about a month and a bit to pay for the rest of the villa and some spending money. Not too worried about spending money to be honest as I will hopefully win money whilst over there and also build up my roll but would be nice to go over there with a good few thousand spare.
Wont post till I have paid for the car now, its going to be a stressful long month but hopefully a good one!

Bad run :(
I suppose it wouldn't be a blog if I didn't post my losses as well as winnings.
Well after nearly getting back my £1700 bookie losses I played far too much poker and I feel like I have lost my mojo. I am playing weak, passive and I am just being bullied to fuck. Even when I do get a great hand and get it in ahead I am losing which makes it even worse for me.
I went to Switzerland to watch Liverpool, amazing trip one of my best and funniest so far. Was in Geneva for half a day and what a place! Amazing, clean, beautiful, lovely beach and the women there 90% of them were 12 out of 10s absolutely stunning.
That gave me 4 days off I played on Saturday lost a bit more so will not play till at least Wed now and try and sort my head out because I am not playing right. Even the awful fish with -45% roi are owning me right now.
So I have done back about $2500 which has put a lovely dent in my profits for the month. I have no idea where I am now because sharkscope stopped working for my great run and as soon as my bad run started they were tracking games again - typical.
One thing that has fucked my head was I was flying and didn't think I could lose any game I played, the next day Fulltilt done an update and I couldn't win fuck all. Funny how these paranoid thoughts come into your mind during a bad run but at this very point in time I just don't think something is right. I think since the update I have only won about 3 all ins in god knows how many games with PP v overs and overs v PP. Also things like you will raise with a PP and it will come a high flop, or raise with AK, AQ, AJ, KQ, KJ and it will come all low cards, really frustrating at the moment.
Anyway hopefully it will turn soon, I fucking need it to with Florida rapidly approaching.

Quick update
Half way there, $1500 more to go and I have recouped my money. Reached my daily target today and didn't count the rakeback as profit. Won another $750 on top to go to my recouping fund so now just $1500 before Tuesday and my head will be fine!
Got my car back today, £330 it cost to fix :( cost me a fortune since I have had it. Oh well at least I have my freedom back. So sick I wasted that money gambling, I am $5500 up on poker this month already and wasted so much of it on that donkey session.
What the past 2 days have shown me however that if I put the hours in I can make a serious amount of money from this. When I get to Florida and I have all day to spare I am going to kill it I hope!

I'm an addict idiot
Went the bank today to put £1700 in, my mate gave me a lift because my car is in the garage, anyway instead of just stopping outside the bank and waiting he comes up with the bright idea of parking and walking about for a bit. As soon as we got to the street with the bank in he says he's going to the bookies. He had been wanting to go all day it seems, fucking stupid thing to say knowing I have £1700 in my hand. Anyway so we go in, 5 hours later come out no money. oooooops
After such a great day on the poker as well.
Started -500 from early morning so quickly got back level and won $250 more. Went out and done that. Come back and won $700 more so basically I have to win $2300 more on top of my daily targets to recoup stupid horse losses. I hope to do it over the next few days, hopefully before Switzerland so I wont be pissed off thinking about it. I am hoping to win it back in the next 3/4 days as I am going to sit in and not leave this laptop till I do. Well I might play golf on Sunday and pick up my car yessssssssssssss tomorrow but apart from that I am going to fucking hammer the poker. Hopefully a decent bit of rakeback will be produced also.
Speaking of which is rakeback day tomorrow. Not sure what to class it as now, usually I class it as winnings so goes on top of my daily target but not sure if I should count it towards my losses or not. No fuck it I will win the losses outright and not dip into that money trying to make up for it, must learn from my mistakes.
I guess it's the gambler mentality in me that helps me play poker anyway, after reading part of some poker book recently I have also now become ultra aggressive and it really is tilting everyone I play into mistakes.
I am up over $4000 so far this month on poker but down £1700 on gambling which nearly enough takes most of that away, but I will get it back you bookie fuckers just you watch!

Drunkard
Was drunk as fuck last night, went out for a meal with my mate, we had a bottle of wine each then went to a bar for a few cocktails eventually I got home and thought it would be a good idea to start drinking Gin Martini's a good few hours later I was absolutely rotten and woke up this morning feeling very sorry for myself.
Couldnt even bare to look at my laptop to play some poker, so went out and had a round of golf. Threw a bet on whilst waiting for my mate and that won so paid for my 2 mates on the golf played great until the last 2 holes :( and came home and went to sleep having made a days wage from my bet anyway haha. Woke up had a take away and got on the poker went down 300 very quickly, got it back and eventually ended up $260 up and stopped. Very happy just to be up that because this hangover stinks.
I am $3000 up this month so far so still on target for my $10k monthly wage. At the end of this month I am hoping to have the villa and car rental paid for and most of my credit card cleared and then I will move up stakes on Fulltilt. Well unlock the $200 games anyway because there will be less pressure on me then.
My plan for when I get to Florida is to build up a roll of around $4/5k and then leave that in there so I can play fish at higher stakes when they sit if I can reach this then my monthly targets should be a hell of a lot higher considering I will be playing poker non stop whilst over there so daily targets wont exist and higher stakes.
If I can achieve this I am very likely to buy a house out there, however I am debating whether or not to go to Thailand just after I get back and see what I get for my money there and how they live because if I can get a nice chunk of land out there and get an amazing house built for virtually the same if not less then I may move out there instead. Also depends on how stable the internet is.
Anyway's 3:50am now and trying my best to get some sleep which is why I am on here chatting shit :) Hopefully up earlier tomorrow, a quick day on the poker and then see what the weather is like for golf.
Oh and I want my fucking car back you bastards, over 2 weeks now no car. When I get it back its getting part exchanged for a nice reliable German car!

Sleep - The best cure for tilt
Once again had a little tilt session today, nothing major but I could have lost loads more. Woke up at 5:30am quickly went $200 up and was in 2 games $110 and $55. If I had won them I would have been up $530, instead I lost both to outdraws and kinda lost my head. I have a target every day, If I reach $250 I withdraw and go out and do something unless I reached that target in like 30 mins then I will carry on for a bit more. Then after I have done something if I feel alert and up for it I will play some more and target another $250.
Anyways from being $200 up and possibly $550 I end up $500 down and after just 3 hours of being awake I am tired again so I think fuck it and went back to bed. Woke up at 2pm and won the $500 back in about an hour and now have just quit being $300 up plus I cleared the $150 iron man bonus so have withdrew $450 today.
This is twice now I have felt tired playing, lost and tilted and twice I have got my head down, woke up and won it back pretty quickly. I advise people to give it a try, I know its hard when your chasing your money back but it really helps to clear your head. Anyway after my first tilt session going $950 down I am now after 2 days $1200 up so well on course for my $10k monthly target.
St Gallen in 10 days and I have still got to book my train tickets for when I arrive in Geneva. 4 hours on a Swiss train should be fun :) Just paid for my mate to come with me too because hes skint at the moment and could do with a holiday and paid for a few of the lads to go into the airport lounge also so its going to be a messy long day a week Tuesday.
Roll on Florida 74 days, 16 hrs, 24 mins until your next flight with us...

It just goes to show.......
If you keep your head in this game and can handle the swings you can't really lose. Usually last night I would have carried on till I was broke, deposited more then lost even more. A few hours kip and my head sorting out and I get it back pretty easy + 200 more.
I may have this game cracked but......
That doesn't protect me against fucktard fish cunts.
What a long day, got up early (1pm) and went straight to golf. Played ok could have done better any ways as it was scorching hot I went into the bar and had some magners with ice and pie chips and gravy (proper northerner me).
Get back home and feel fucked from the sun, have another magners and decide to try and make a quick few dollars and hit the sack (6pm lol). An hour later I am $1000 down, $900 of it all to 1 fish who actually on sharkscope has a bowl next to his name.
Anything that could have went wrong did. Lost overs to pocket pairs, pocket pairs to overs, open ended straight and flush draws vs 1 pair and he held and the final straw that sent me over the edge was AA vs 22 with him flopping a set but also giving me the flush draw and I never hit.
Anyways not wanting to deposit I leave my account with $120 in and go to sleep. Wake up at about midnight and start grinding away. A few hours later I have about 500 back so I go over to tescos and do some shopping at half 4 in the morning lol. Stock up on junk food and then get back on the poker. I end up $50 down and play another fish bowl who beats me 4-0 so now I am down $450 again and fuming. I ended up winning 8-0 vs some french donk in $55 hu games so ended up the night about $50 down and I am happy with that.
Got an ironman bonus of $175 to aim for (gutted I didnt start from Jan would have been 600) and I am half way there, rakeback today so from one minute looking like I am about to deposit to the next looking like I will be making a withdrawal. Managed not to punch anything during that mini tilt session, I usually either punch the bed headrest or my table but my hands cant take much more of it.
Anyway's time for some more sleep, just had Animal on msn feeling sorry for himself being hung over and missed his flight loool. Find it hard to give sympathy for anyone whos in vegas and hungover and having to stay longer whilst I am stuck in the UK - LUCKY FISH!
On another note thank fuck for aircon. I bought an industrial sized aircon unit last year and we had probably one of the worst summers ever and I never got much use out of it. Its made up for it this year though, my room is like an icebox where as the rest of the house is like a sauna. I feel sorry for anyone without aircon trying to sleep in this - invest in a portable unit, you wont regret it.
Laters bitches

End of month review
I feel I have finally cracked it as I have changed a few things and I haven't had a losing day since, in fact everyday has been a winning day apart from 1 break even day. Finished over $9000 up for the month even though I had a horrible tilt session which cost me £4000 and I ended up taking about 4 days off because of it.
My target for this month is to reach $10,000 or more but it may be tricky considering I will be spending 3 days in Switzerland on the piss watching Liverpool and I dont know weather to take my laptop with me or not. Plus I want to play a lot more golf this month, slowly getting the hang of it but I have bruised my ribs which could slow things up a bit :(
Anyway time for bed have to be up early to play golf tomorrow and then hopefully my car will be out the garage :( had nothing but problems since I bought the bloody thing.
Roll on St Gallen and Florida!

Not a bad week so far
Last week I done about £4k on betting and poker in a tilt session. Got most of it back now so have been relaxing a bit. Last 2 days I have been playing golf mostly and then relaxing after it with some nice wine and meals at restaurants. Trying to get started today but not really motivated. Will probably take me a losing session to get me back into it :)
Wankers of the week:
Betfair poker players
BigBanker
RibePigekor
BigBanker probably the most clueless idiot I have ever come across. I dont really play Betfair any more but pop on now and again to see how Punterz is doing. Anyway this guy stalks his all day joining his games and abuses him, I dont think he has noticed that he is actually down around $3000 to Punterz lol. Anyways you have to laugh, he only ever gets his chips in bad and he sucks out quite a lot but he seems very happy with this.
RibePigekor huge wanker. In fact probably the biggest there has ever been! Goes around all day long every day watching Punterz games and when he loses a hand he says WP NH to the opponent lol. What sort of sad lonely existance this guy must live.
One thing that pisses me off about Betfair is that its full of scandi pricks who think they own the place. You will get 3 Scandis sat on 100 2/5, 5/10 and 10/20 tables between them. What is the point in this? It shouldn't be allowed it just clutters up the lobby. The funny thing I sat on 15 of their tables and not 1 of them would play a hand vs me and I hardly have a great image on Betfair anyway, well on cash that is.
You complain to Betfair, they do fuck all about it. Next thing you sit on their tables, they refuse to play, complain to Betfair and Betfair kick you off your account until you have left their tables. Such bad customer service.
Anyways was going to play golf again today but the blue sky is now grey and its going to piss down so it looks like a day on the poker and maybe a bevvy later on if I can be arsed going the pub. Rake back day today and just 1 more day to reach my Ironman status on tilt.

My first post
Hello and welcome.
If you are reading this blog its probably for 1 or 3 reasons.
1. You hate me and you are trying to find information about me to use to abuse me :) GL
2. You know me and you are having a nose.
3. You are bored shitless browsing the web and have nothing better to do
Very likely number 1 haha who cares though I don't play poker to make friends I play it to make money. I will leave all that gay homo friend making shit to the likes of JazzyJew and the rest of the gayers on the Betfair forum.
Anyways just finished a long days grinding and I am up enough to be happy to stop for the day. I will when I get the time have some sort of box on the side to show my profit and losses for poker each month if you are interested.
I currently play on FullTilt poker, I did play on Betfair as red14 and was a very loyal customer but after being fucked about too much by the leader boards and Betfair generally not giving a shit for the likes of me or Punterz who helped keep their sng lobby busy for a good few years I decided to move on. There are some great staff at Betfair like their VIP guy Paul Twaddle, but people like Bruce Stubbs (CUNT) just fuck it up for everyone.
Not only that but there has been some dodgy shit that has happened over the years. Anything from Betfair cheating Punterz out of the Stax promotion that I actually won in the end but it was so bent it wasn't even funny to dodgy accounts having 100% losing records over a huge amount of high stake games to superuser accounts not being publically acknowledged.
Betfair is a shambles, my final month there I raked about £9k punterz probably a shit load more, we only raked so much to go for leader boards as a nice bonus. What do Betfair do? Fuck the leader boards up so that heads up players basically cant win. Then they change it again meaning its even harder for HU players to win, then they totally create a new leader board with a WHOPPING $450 for first whoopdiedoo. As if I would sit in all week playing for a $450 bonus when I am playing anything up to $1k games in the first place. $2k was a nice bonus before but $450? Fuck off.
Now they don't even have leader boards, they are once again wasting their time with this WSOPE bollocks that was the actual demise of them in the first place putting all their budget into that pile of shite and not looking after the customers.
Its worked to my advantage anyway because now I am on Fulltilt I get ironman bonuses, Fulltilt points to exchange for merchandise, 27% rakeback (not 40% but its still good enough) and a shit load of fish to go with it. Betfair towards the end you were lucky to get a game or 2 against a fish bowl, Fulltilt is swimming with them and I imagine stars is too.
Anyways I will save other dirt for future postings. I am currently grinding my bollocks off as I have a 65 day holiday coming up in Florida and if that wasn't enough in a few weeks I have booked to go to St Gallen in Switzerland to watch Liverpool which seemed like a good idea at the time but now its going to take a fair chunk of money from me.
Good luck to Animal the slot machine addict in Vegas, already had a great result in event 3 I think it was and he is still out there eating chicken skins, steaks and burgers! His link is on the menu bar as well as Punterz blog which is a good entertaining read.

I am currently grinding my bollocks off as I have a 65 day holiday coming up in Florida and if that wasn't enough in a few weeks I have booked to go to St Gallen in Switzerland to watch Liverpool which seemed like a good idea at the time but now its going to take a fair chunk of money from me.
Good luck to Animal the slot machine addict in Vegas, already had a great result in event 3 I think it was and he is still out there eating chicken skins, steaks and burgers! His link is on the menu bar as well as Punterz blog which is a good entertaining read.
