    Thanks chaps

    Tikay - Harsh, but fair

    The answer is that I ran really really well. I had Aces a lot and won some pretty big flips.
    Had a 'gulp' moment with around 10 left.  I got it in pre with QQ vQQ and he was 4 to the flush on the flop.

    I had a huge pot with IrishRose when we had most of the chips in play between us 4 handed.  I turned the 2nd nuts and Rose had a strong hand as well. Typically of Rose she said 'nh' straight away.  She is a lovely lady and deservedly had a great TPT rail.

    I had a rail as well. They were a little different though :)

    A bit like a football match TPT cheered on Rose. Outlaws, Sam and hhyrtr cheering on whoever was in a pot against me!

    I got heads up with TheDart who from from the few times that I've played against him seems like a real gentleman. 
    He's also a very good player and so I was delighted to sneak over the line. 

    1st main of the week for me tonight. 
    Looking forward to it.

    Well Played Jac.

    Your efforts passed me by last night I am afraid - I was busy railing Craig and Maca in the High Roller.

    Happy to see you binked a UKOPS event though.

    I'll be taking a poker break until Thursday - was actually working late while on the rail until 2am - and have a mad busy week but I will cheer on any forum regs where I can in the meantime.

    GL in the ME.

    Yeah, wp in that DYM or whatever it was last night.

    50nl regs were probably silently railing, licking their lips ;)

    Played the main tonight. Never got going. Made a questionable call preflop with KQ diamonds and couldn't get away once I hit top pair on the flop from my stack.

    Day off tomorrow.

    Next one up for me is £55b/h on Wednesday.

    Played a few Dyms tonight before and after I bust the main. Went ok. Liking 1087 points after 3 days. Might have a bash at priority this month.

    Had a recall on my car. Problem with the steering apparently. Nothing to worry about they say just being careful. Pop it down to us at your convienience. What happens if my steering goes on way to dealer?

    Couldn't make the Mighty Rams thumping of Huddersfield last night.
    So decided to play the £10 rebuy. Bit of an odd game for me. I hardly played a hand but maintained average stack all the way through courtesy of having big hands a couple of times to short stack shoves. With 40 left I lost a standard one where my friend from the other night, TheDart, shoved bvb. Had AQ diamonds and he rather annoyingly  had QQ. Left me short and I bust a few hands later.

    Had a good night at Dyms but unfortunately discoed during my last 2 games. Got back in time to see me with 1 bb in one of them . The other one I returned just as Dragon was minning my bb. Thought he might just be nicking the away players bb and shoved over him. Didn't work out :)

    Still thinking of priority but it's going to be a hard sell with Mrs J. Double dym points next week so could comfortably make a 1000 points  each day. With the amount that I'm playing this week though she may well have a word.

    £55b/h tonight.  Haven't cashed mtt wise for a while so would be nice to get a result.

    Darty invested your chips well enough to at least cash, so that's a plus.

    nice final sentence, but i am 100% sure you are just baiting me there. :-)

    Played the £55b/h and the £22 turbo tonight. Bust the £22 with 40 left with a flip. Had  a monster pot in the £55. Utg raise into my bb and I flat with 88. See a pleasant A 8 2 rainbow flop. Turn 4 and we get it all in on a 3 river. He'd raised with 54. With the action before the river I don't think that I can put him on a 5. If he has aces then fair enough. Left me very short and bust a little while later.
    Not sure now. At the time I thought it was a total cooler but just looking back hmmm.

    Had a few people buy into me for some of the UKOPS. The mini the other night wasn't on the stake.
    Really want to be able to give the backers a return. I've had a nice record previously of always winning a bit after being staked and don't want this time to be any different.
    Hopefully saving it for one of the mains at the Weekend.
