The Only Way Is Essex?

Whilst the cream of the UK’s poker talent gathered at DTD in Nottingham this weekend for the £1k Monte Carlo event and the Big Cash Game i planned to take the slightly less lucrative trip down to the Rendezvous in Brighton to meet up with my mates Cogs and Jakattack for the £40 high roller event and beers galore However, i instead ended up spending much of my weekend in Basildon Essex after abit of a bad beat or a nice piece of run good depending on how you view it….

On the Friday night i met up with some Essex bird that I’ve recently got to ‘know’ via the aptly named online dating website Plenty of Fish. This was actually the fourth time that I have met up with this girl with dates one two and three also ending up back at her gaff I’m afraid there’s no longer any sordid details for you dirty fan boys out there now im blogging for Poker Encore so please put your wank rags away! The next day I ended up leaving her place for Brighton in the early afternoon and literally drove five minutes down the road when i got a fooking flat tire. FML! So i rang Miss Essex to come pick me up and left my motor on a side road hoping she knew someone who could sort it out because I’m rubbish when it comes to stuff like that and can barely change a bike tyre successfully.

Unfortunately we couldn’t get anyone to sort it that day so it was gg [ ] high roller and beers in Brighton and i spent the rest of the day and night at her house. I actually really like this girl tbh and we seem to get on really well but she’s already trying to get me pot committed with talk of relationships and taking a trip to Paris and/or Brussels because she gets redic cheap eurostar travel. We’ve only known each other five minutes and I’d prefer take things alittle slower and see a flop turn and river rather than getting it all in pre-flop with such little information. Also I’m hopefully going on my world trip with Greekstein later this year so I’m reluctant to get involved to deep, we’ll see what develops.

In regards to my online grinding last week, my poker results were not exactly too thrilling with what little volume i put in pretty much ending up with me breaking about even. I think my best score was 3rd in some poxy ten buck rebuy for just over a monkey. I just can’t get anything going atm both in terms of decent volume and results and seem to be getting shafted alot when deep busting in about 12th-25th place. Arrrgh, its frustrating but that’s enough crap from me for now, i ain’t gonna moan too much, i just have to get my nut down and grind and the results will come. I will be playing Mon-Thur this week then I’m off for a potentially very messy Stag weekend in Newcastle which should be fun, laters.
