Well I fucked up towards the end, jet lagged I played tired and done about $3k in 3 days so my monthly result not too good. Took a break for a couple of days and slept loads so now over it I think.
$7200 was the end of the month figure, well below my expectations but Vegas took a lot out of me. I am well up on the world cup now after a good few days betting in the last 16. Going to calm down a bit now with the quarter finals as the games are much tougher.
If I don't at least double what I made this month in July I will be disappointed! On a plus side I am well ahead of my $100k yearly target I am currently on $68,484 for 6 months. I now feel I can make at least $150k this year hopefully more.
Good luck!

Vegas done with!
Well it didn't go as well as I planned, lost about $10k on blackjack and roulette and about $5k on sports bets. I am really not bothered about losing the money although it would have been nice if I didn't. What really pissed me off was how bad I was running. Every time I was building up my bets on blackjack to $250-$300 a hand I was getting sick hands like splits, double downs against dealers 5 and 6 showing and I was getting things like 20 and dealer would hit 21 on every crucial hand. What pissed me off the most was I just couldn't win at all, you want at least some enjoyment out of spending your money. Each time I got a T everyone was getting 9s, 10s, aces etc I was getting 2s, 3s, 4s and having to hit and was busting all the time.
Oh well, didn't play much poker there, got absolutely smashed one night and done about $400 in 5 mins on cash table then staggered off to the sports book to waste more money. On the 2nd night I ended up getting alcoholic poisoning, the bar tender was giving us near enough half pint shots of patron which is just ridiculous! Ended up waking up the next day with a sink full of sick lying fully clothed in bed and unable to move. Didn't really drink much after that, 5 days later I had managed to drink 3 bud lights in a night.
Online poker has took a huge back seat this month from playing golf, going out for meals and getting drunk, world cup betting and vegas I have hardly played but I am still up enough to cover some losses and pay the bills. I will post a final update at the end of the month with profit or loss. One thing I never do when I am in Vegas is go the pool, mainly because I am fair skinned and burn really easy its pointless me sitting in 120 degree eat and just cooking myself alive. This time though I went to the palazzo pool a few times and loved it, if I go back there I will definitely be going to the pool every day. Some amazing sights to be seen there!
Anyways I basically need the argies to win the World Cup to get my losses back on it haha. If they win I fancy going to Thailand a few months earlier or going to Spain for a week or two for a golf trip.
When I was in Vegas all I wanted to do was come home, but now I am back home I realise how lucky I was to be out there and maybe should have tried to enjoy myself more rather than let the table games control my trip. The women in this country although there are some stunners are just miserable stuck up women who think they are too good for everyone. In Vegas these girls would be nothing not even 4s or 5s. Really is amazing how many beautiful women there is there and they are all friendly and not stuck up.
So my plan for next month is rebuilding to get a lot of funds together for Thailand and play loads of golf as I have just bought myself a new set of Callaway irons and Taylor Made Burner woods the difference it has made to my game already is unreal.
Always nice to catch up with Azi and Punterz as always and looking forward to the next trip next year.
Good luck at the tables ;)

A good month allround
With Vegas only 13 days away I needed a decent month this month and it came. Up and down on the gambling front. Won a few £3ks and lost a £3k on Chelsea in the FA Cup final but ended up a fair bit overall at the end of the month.
Poker was great this month, I turned my bankroll from $2k to $13k as I have decided I want to play higher stakes. Been playing some $500 sngs and have been running like shit in them to be honest but I am still making profit.
My profit for the month ended up on $27,134 which is my best month so far. I just need to get another month like that for June under my belt and the rest of the year should be stress free.
My aim is to get my balance to $20,000 then have a little break from bankroll building and start with bank account building as I want to invest in property. Eventually I would like my balance on $50,000 so I can play $1k games with confidence. It will obviously be a lot harder at them stakes but I am confident I can still win at that level.
Looking forward to meeting up with Azimut, Animal, DC, Ewan and a few other possibilities in Vegas which is looking to be the best Vegas trip so far.
Good luck at the tables!

I have a dream.............................
Well I had a dream, fell asleep last night and threw £400 on Chelsea to beat my team Liverpool, I was so desperate for them to win to stop Man Utd winning the league, anyway I set my alarm so I could wake up in time for the game.
With the game on my mind whilst I was asleep I actually dreamt about it. In my dream I was sat in the stands watching the game and Drogba scored the first goal and Chelsea won 2-0.
Anyway after waking up I thought sod it I will give it a go, no way in a million years would I waste £100 on a scorecast but I thought I would trust my instincts.
Anyway the game finished 2-0 to Chelsea and drogba scored the first goal looool. 25/1 I got which is a bit shit considering Chelsea were away from home but I am still happy with it.
On the poker front I have made a flying start to this month long may it continue!
VIVA LAS VEGAS!

End of April review
Month started great, evened out then went good then just 5 days before the end of the month I do $3000 in one night lol. Not bad overall made $8100 plus up slightly on betting.
Vegas in just over a month, I can't wait. Palazzo sorted for the full stay now just looking forward to some nice cocktails and gamblingggggggggg.
Nothing much to put here, my tattoos have started, I am having my arm sleeved with wildlife. Sea based on 1 arm, jungle based on the other. Hoping for that to be finished before I go to Thailand.
Good luck at the tables!

What a shit fucking month!!
Same like Jan, boring boring boring.
Just finally installed Holdem Manager and seen that I am 28 buy ins below EV. That doesn't tell the whole story really, cooler after cooler this month, KK v AA, QQ v AK, AK v AA and a load of other bullshit I wont bore you with.
I am in profit for the month but considering what I spend each month it doesn't cover the bills. Huge improvement in luck and form needed for April although the first few games fulltilt are obviously taking April fools day a bit too far.
Profit for March with rake back and bonuses - $3750 :(

Las Vegas & LA booked :)
Just booked to go to Las Vegas which ties in with my birthday and also going to spend a few days in LA. Staying in the Palazzo once again as it's by far the best hotel in vegas! Going with Azimut and a few of his friends and hope to meet up with a few other players over there like Animal, D.C. the mad geordie and maybe punterz will go also.
Not sure what I am doing in LA but I fancy going to Beverley Hills and sunset blvd.

Retards on Betfair Poker
I decided to try Betfair out after not playing on there for a long long time. After 1 day I had a silver star on Sharkscope, that's how small the site is. Not sure if I still have it after losing a $1k sng JJ v AQ when I had him down low in chips then 89 v 33 on a 893 flop.
Anyways I was going to try Betfair out for their rake race for a WSOP package however after just 1 day on there I had major doubts. I couldn't play higher than $77 super turbo heads up because any game $100 and upwards was just filled with regulars.
I emailed Betfair requesting they have more games in the lobby for $200 and upwards because their lobby will only allow 2 games to be registered and no more will appear until one starts then the regular will instantly join the new one again and if you do manage to get there first you are most likely going to piss them off and there is nothing worse than wasting a day battling with a regular getting nowhere.
Anyway rake race lasted 2 days before I gave up whilst playing on there though I ran into some proper annoying cunts.
3 people came to mind, Greggs, TAYLS and Lewis147. Well TAYLS is a low stake player who has made just £1500 from 5500 games which is pretty pathetic. He has a huge mouth on him and loves to grass you up should you abuse him back. Anyway I owned him so bad on there winning nearly every game I played against him and towards the end he because so bitter and angry it was funny. Have to laugh at players who claim to be fun players only but spend their whole life on poker not making any money and turn so ugly with envy of winning players.
Lewis147 has a big mouth and a small roll. Nit stuck in $100 games for the rest of his life, claims to be one of the best but struggles to break into a profit. There are other players on that site such as Wannacookie who is a complete bellend and I wouldn't hesitate in smashing fuck out of him if I met him at a live game. These players talk a great amazing game but are stuck in low stake games for the rest of their life making little or no money.
Finally greggs, doesn't play but is a serial stalker of a friend of mine MrKangaroo. Follows him everywhere to abuse him and laugh every time he loses a hand. I had the final laugh though getting him chat banned. I don't report people who abuse me as its fun and banter, they can say what they want I just laugh it off. However I feel I have ruined his fun getting him a chat ban as he can no longer stalk and laugh so his life will be pretty empty now the sad loser :)
Poker has been a bit slow to the start of this month... slowly starting to get going now but will be surprised if I get near last months figures.

Great Febuary
Had a great month this month, even though I lost £2000 in my last few days I still ended the month being $17,500 up. The £2000 I lost towards the end I near enough won back on gambling anyway.
Had a little mess around on Betfair but I don't really like it to be honest. I made about £1300 on there but to be honest the structures suck.
I have just cashed in some iron man points for a $600 bonus so that has got my March off to a good start, I just hope last months form carries over to this month :)
