Day 1 started spectacularly badly for me. I started playing whilst I was in the office and going through the show script- so perhaps in hindsight, wasn't giving it my full concentration.
Nevertheless I ran my AK into an ultra-loose player who re-raised me all-in and I called, expecting to be either dominating him or in a coin flip.
He had AA!
That was £10 down within 10 mins of my challenge.
Then, on tilt, I piled in my second tenner, with pocket 8s on a 10-6-4 flop. Strangely enough, my opponent called me with his pocket 6s!
So after 30 mins of play I was 20% down.
A disastrous start.
Luckily, I managed to recuperate one pull-up just before the show began at 7.55pm, when my KKs held up against JJs and then after I got home last night at 1 in the morning, I grinded away on two 5p/10p tables and brought my deficit back up to minus £8.

So 8% down as I write, but it was lot worse. I'm expecting to do better from here on in... Hoping to play later this evening on Day 2... Posted by RICHORFORD
Ah, the old "I was reading a show script" isn't that the oldest excuse in the book?

Wd barry i cant see where u finished but a excellent result for you, lets see if you can double it again now
Ul with sheff wed 2day lets hope they bounce straight back up
Haha, total fail...1st day -9.50...decided to play 3.30 dym; 2.20 tourney; 4.00 cash (sorry, went for the quick fix...) ran into 2pr vs higher 2pr, set over trips; ak v 55...still, onward and upwards eh? So back to the challenge, I've just registered in the 2.20 £50.00 guarenteed at 11.15...wanna come and play with me?
So second day, decided to play a couple tbs in the morning at nl30 and ran a nice little profit. This gave ne the chance to buy into primo which was a waste of time my KK busted by the mighty Q4.
Played some more cash in the evening ran bad at the start but came gd at the end with a nut flush against a set which greatly improved the roll
Finished off with a 10 man stt with the forum regs that was taken down by pod1 with loonytoons 2nd, wd guys gg
