I wanna play pokerrr!

I can't really be bothered to structure this post properly, so bare with me.

I am skint. Very skint. Probably have about £50 in my bank account (including overdraft). Thankfully I start work on monday, but my first cheque for £275 won't come in for another week which is crap with that week in hand method.

Currently I owe Kessie £400 after he helped pay Spring terms college bill, Isaac £120 odd, St.Aidans College £250, and St.Aidans College Bum Club some sort of amount. Thats probably in the region of 900 quid I've got to fork out. Plus £300 rent at the start of next month. So make that £1200. And present for megan as it's 3 year anniversary time. And another £100 or so for a weekend away....fuck it just keeps coming. Right, so call that close to 1500 quid in extra-debt, which is just colossal (for a first year anyway). Whats worse is that I have been distinctly frugal when it comes to going out etc. (ok maybe a few to many Mr.Chois but the bloke is a god). Last summer without a proper job really did arse me.

Never mind. On the bright side me father randomly got me a laptop off ebay (Yorkshires discount online supermarket :D) for £199, 3.2Ghz, a gig RAM for all those who half understand computer blurb. Finally I can get rid off my 10 year old Hamster powered, toothpaste ridden bucket of spunk. Wahoo.

So, all this debt means I can't play poker. (online anyway). I was soo looking forward to complementing the job with a good few sessions but what can you do. Oh and the roll on UTD died a special death. Got up to just over £45 playing £2 sit n goes and 25/50 limit, took 20 out (needed to top up fone), and then played a £20 HU sit n go, don't ask me why. First Hand I have KK. He limps, I raise, he re-raises, all-in and yep, he has the chestnuts. LOL. the remaining 7quid went on Blackjack out of Tilt. I am discovering a trend in my game where I play ok (even well at times) and then just blow up. Randomly. Haha....what a bell.

So last Weds I went to the casino, to a new one called Napoleons. I looked online and it showed the results of the previous weeks tourny. I looked in astonishment at what I saw.

The insane amount of rebuys led me to beleive that they were all morons, which was true but it also turned out that you started on 2k, with blinds starting at 100/200 and not going up till after the two hour rebuy period, which made more sense looking at the site. Now with bradford being bradford the vast majority there were Pakis, who were stoned off their tits, genuinely. The guy to my right, and left actually, were particluarly arsed in. 1 of them actually paid the guy 40 quid over the table for the weed I saw them exchange outside. It was fucking bizarre but hilarious.

Anyways I sat down, the announcer bloke on the tannoy gave the usual blurb of "enjoy yourselves, please keep conversation in english, and please refrain from splashing the pot."
"Ladies and Gentlemen, good luck"

And then a tidal wave of urdu covered the casino. And probably 2 in 3 pots were splashed. It was...a sight. I know I am a fucking gobshite at a table but this was insane. The dealers were all inept/scared and I'd realised I'd been put on the rowdiest table by far. The amazing thing was there were all ins every hand, but no, not on AK or 1010, but 10 6, 9 4 with the odd AQ thrown in there. The vast majority of the Pakis knew each other and instead of putting in the chips with a reasonable holding, UTG pushed blind every time and systematically got called by the rest who were getting better and better odds. I absolutely loved it, they were a top set of blokes and we were chatting and joking about. after about an hour the guy to my left had already rebought 7 times, when I woke up with KK in the BB.

It got limped round to me, amazingly, so I went all in for 1600 or so, and got 5 callers. Yes, 5. Miraculously my KK held up against shit like j6o to put me in the region of 8k. I then entered a pot on A4s with middle pair and a gutshot against the guy on 7 buyins. NAturally thinking I was good, The pot was about 2k on the turn, when I hit the bottom end of my str8, and the money went in. He had a higher one. Fair enough. Probably bad play on my part but He was so loose I thought I was good. So I was down to about 4k. I decided to add-on another 2k. I then waited and waited and waited (After a lot of shouting, near fights, and rebuys). The play tightened up slightly and I found QQ in the BB, another nice position to be in. He raised to 1k, and a went all in, he called with AQ and hit an A on the river. Shame. I was the first person to leave of the 40 people there.

Apologies for the epic, I was bored and wanted to share a ridiculous event. Hope everyone is running well. Paul you don't need to run well you cunt. Nice going mate.
