No updates because I haven't really had much of a chance to play. I went to Stars VIP party last week - TR here http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...tr-191719.html
The Fox casino game was fun, kinda stupid structure - live players love deep to start and then ridic shallow at the final but punters will be punters - but it was good experience. In the TR I say "my hatred for live poker" but after getting some sleep and feeling better (I've been recovering from the flu for a few weeks now) looking back I definitely enjoyed it. Sent out the FTR newsletter today and been working on some new promotions (Ladbrokes/ACR threads are up, hopefully something else to come still!). First tutorial for uni is 2pm Tuesday so going to have to find some time to fit in some work for that.
This week has been really busy getting ready for uni, signed up for the law football team, sent off some emails and bought 2 textbooks (need another few still, sigh). Also signed up to the Hong Kong society for no real reason so I'm now part of HKSoc - yeahhhh!
Tomorrow I'm playing a local £150+15 2 day event. Should get £5k up top or so (I'm playing on stake but it would clear makeup and leave me with a fair bit) so pretty excited. iPhone will be charged and I'll take my headphones in case any live pros decide to open their mouths too often. More excitingly, one of my best mates and my "poker friend" (Inbetweeners rocks, your US version sucks ass) is visiting from tomorrow morning til Wednesday morning. We're playing the £150 because it's one of the few buyins in the casino above £30 so it'll be nice to go back having played a lot of the £20 and £30 competitions to play something big. And we get a buffet! Night out Monday I think with some old friends. He's the guy who got me interested in poker and we played a ton together as well as living in a student flat together in second year which just turned into a grind haus for us with our 3 flatmates hiding in their rooms (lol). We've travelled about a fair bit together and I haven't seen him in a few months, and I haven't seen him for at least a year when it's just been us two chilling not other friends and/or girlfriend(s) constantly around. As standard, meeting in the pub tomorrow at 11am Gonna wear my new bright yellow HKSoc tshirt all day!
