     So a new month a new poker dawn. Going to return to the cash tables today and focus on these for the month of June. 
    Only one goal for June and that's to have a winning month.
    Unfortunately to play poker you need money so will be depositing ANOTHER £150 today.
    House not sold, Mr and Mrs Prospective Buyer plumped for the house they saw on Friday. Wasn't meant to be.

     Not going to focus on the cash tables, had an appalling start dropping about £30 at 10nl last night. Resorted back to MTT's and played £500 BH at 7.45pm and the £1k BH at 8.15pm.
     Finished 4th in the £500 getting QQ in v AK for 40k chips for the flop to come AK* and then a K on the turn. TY and good night. 
     Posted below, my exit hand in the £1k where I finished 19th out of 138.
    Not sure whether I should be getting it in here or not.
     Going to focus mainly on MTT's for a while as my cash game seems to have gone to pieces and I can't just keep topping up.
     Currently I have an IPhone 4S and get an upgrade in the next couple of weeks. Thinking of getting one of the following and wondered if anyone with any of them had any feedback. IPhone 5S, Galaxy S5, HTC One(M8) or the cheapest option HTC One.

     Here is a hand from one of the BH's I played this afternoon.
    At the time I was torn between calling and folding.
    As it turned out it worked out OK, but is this the correct lay down long term.
    The hand occurred on what was a long drawn out cash bubble and the villain had already done this to me twice.
    Thoughts appreciated.

     Only played a few MTT's since last update as been my weekend in at work and also had a visit form the Regional Manager on Saturday morning so was all hands to the pump on Thursday and Friday. Then a late shift on Saturday and working Sunday. Not much to report really having just played the 3 tournies and claimed one bounty. Will be back to play a bit more tomorrow night.
     Really looking forward to the World Cup now but don't rate England's chances at all, if we get out of the group that will be a bonus.
     Have now placed all my ante-post bets and these are all shown below. Gone big on Argentina as really think they have the fire-power are playing it in their back yard and the fact they appear to have an easy run to the semis where they will probably meet Spain.

     £10 EW Lukaku Top Scorer @25/1, 1/4odds 1-2-3-4. Plus the firm I have bet with will give you a £5 Free Bet every time he scores.
     
     £10 EW Messi Top Scorer @7/1, 1/4odds 1-2-3-4. Plus the firm I have bet with will give you a £5 Free Bet every time he scores.

     £15 Argentina Outright 4/1.

     £7 Argentina to Win & Messi Top Scorer 14/1.

     £6 Brazil v Argentina Final 8/1.

     £2 Accum, 50p 5-folds.
    Brazil Top Scorer Neymar 1/1.
    Holland Top Scorer Van Persie 6/5.
    Uruguay Top Scorer Suarez 13/8.
    England Top Scorer Sturridge 11/4.
    Bosnia Top Scorer Dzeko 13/8.
    Belgium Top Scorer Lukaku 2/1.

     £5 Free Bet on Opening Game.
    £5 Brazil-1 H'cap 10/11.

     £2 Free Bet on Opening Game.
    £2 Neymar First Goal 7/2.

     Played a £6.60 sat into tonight's main in which I successfully qualified.
    Played the Main, getting 3 heads but no cash and also played the Mini.
     Was going really well in the Main until the following hand. Wasn't sure what to do but decided that I would go for it as winning this hand would give me chip lead and a real chance of reaching final table. Having been bought up on the ethos of going for the top 3 in MTT's it seemed the right move to make.
     Thoughts?

    I probably fold, likely to be behind in the spot, and if not they're gunna have a massive combo draw at worst i think. Something like AKdd, UTG raise remember.

     A very quick update as not much to report.
     Played a few MTT's including Main and Mini, then played an hour on mastercash making about £5.
     Did manage to make £400 today though.
     How I hear you ask.
     Basically got my renewal letter through for my buildings and contents insurance. Have been with the same major supermarket (claims to sell a Basic range but really is quite expensive) and paid monthly Direct Debit for a couple of years. Standard letter, here's your premium do nothing and just carry on with your direct debit and all will be well. Sooo easy just to sit back and watch the money come out month after month. Decided to do a bit of shopping about and ended up using another supermarket insurance with increased cover, less excess and for over £400 a year less. It definitely pays to shop around!
     A couple of decent signings for Villa in the last week. Despite numerous so called Villa fans moaning about Senderos and Cole not being good enough, over the hill etc, etc, I think they are the sort of players that will only benefit our squad in terms of helping out the youngsters. Gone are the days, for now, of Villa being able to go out and buy the upper echelons of available players and Villa fans need to wake up and smell the coffee. Both of these players will enhance our squad and add the depth we haven't had since O'Neill's days.
     Villa also released their new kit this week and I have to say it is the best home and away shirt we have had for a long time. Defo buying the new away shirt, very similar to the famous shirt we wore on the night of European Cup glory.

     So it is finally here.
    The waiting is over, the big day has arrived and guess what, your's truly is on a late shift so will miss the opening ceremony and the opening game, will get to listen to second half on the way home in the car.
     Luckily I am off this weekend so will be able to watch the England game in the pub with a few sherberts.
     All my pre tournament bets are down, see above.
     Sky Super6 predictions entered.
     Sun Dream Team picked and leagues joined.
     So it is now time to grab the remote, sit back and relax.
     World Cup, I love it.

     On the poker front have played a fair few more MTT's without any luck.
     As I am on lates today I have had an hour back on the cash tables this morning, two tables of 10nl and one of 8nl. Played pretty well I thought and ended up with a profit of £18. Think I may spend a bit of time back on the cash tables over the next few days and see how I do.

     Got off work early so was able to watch opening game. Having watched Brazil's rather dodgy performance I am even more convinced that they won't be winning this World Cup. Thought Oscar had a good game but apart from him and Neymar, in bursts, wasn't over impressed by Brazil at all. Croatia look lively going forward and if Brazil hadn't had 12 players think they would of got at least a point from the encounter. Hope the sight of managers and players waving imaginary cards will not become the lasting image of the World Cup. Really like the spraying of the white line for free kick walls, sometimes the simplest ideas are the best.
     
     So 1 game in, 2 bets made, 2 bets won. World cup profit £11.55.

     Bets for tomorrow

     £4 Mexico 13/10.
     £2 Hernandez 1st Score 5/1.
     £5.55 Spain v Holland Both Teams to Score 6/5.

     Another couple of games, another couple of winners.

     3 games in, 5 bets made, 4 bets win, 1 bet refunded. World cup profit £23.41.

     Cheeky few bets on Chile v Aystralia tonight.

     £1 Sanchez 1st scorer Chile 2-0 20/1.
     £1 Sanchez 1st scorer Chile 3-0 30/1.
     £5 Chile -1 on H'cap 6/5.
     £1 Chile 2-0 11/2.
     £1 Chile 3-0 9/1.

     5 mins into the Chile game decided it would be wise to invest in Sanchez to score 1st goal, so duly had £2.41 at 4/1.
    If the Aussies hadn't scored would of been a bumper return but still a good result.
     World Cup profit now at £35.05, this doesn't include my ante-post bets listed earlier which I will take into account once they are settled.
     Plan for today is to play a bit of poker here and there, watch episodes 3&4 of Broadchurch with my daughter, as promised to her, watch the 5pm game at home and then head off to the pub to watch the 8pm game and the England game. I do love watching England games at the pub rather than at home, as long as the pub is a decent one and not full of 19yr olds downing Jaegers and believing that the England game is an excuse to behave like utter morons. Will post later my bets for the day and an update on my poker.
