Jeremy Beadle & Mr. Donkey!

Hi all, game 1 tonight was my usual $20 10 player pays top 5 $40,1st level i just sat and folded junk,2nd level was not much better! got 44 late & limped hoping for a set on the flop,no 4 came,38Q instead! it was checked all the way round so i bet 120 and they all fold! same level and i get AA,again in late position,i raise to 180 and 2 call & the short guy goes all in for his last 450,i dont fancy messing about,with my luck i cant beat 3 other hands even with AA,so i push all 1400ish in.that puts me HU against shorty and his 33 cant hurt me, 3 hands later and i scoop more when i flop a K set.I'm happy to be patient and show unusual discipline for a while as the table shrinks to 6,at level 6 (200/400) the only action is when i re raise to 2k to prevent my BB getting nicked with AQ and sit on 4k,doesnt take long for the shorty to push with zilch,get called,lose and its $40 to the 5 of us. felt really pleased with that game,no risky plays,solid but strong play did the biz!! as soon as i continue like that and resist the need to go chasing etc i might win a bit more!! anyways,i had also registered for a $5 30 seater sng which started just after,again i took it slow,by level 3 i havnt played 1 hand!! mainly because the hands are worse than Jeremy Beadles!! i cant get anything,i copped 44 again but didnt play behind a raise and re raise,i cant even defend my blinds with this poo,im bound to get called so i decide to sit & wait some more!! then 10 10! im UTG so raise to 300 and get 1 caller,flop is A high so i shove and win it there,then only 2 hands later,WTF! 10'S again!! no fancy play here,blinds are 100/200 so boooom,i push all in pre flop,1 player whos got me slighty out chipped calls,i dont recall his alias so for now i'l just call him Mr.DONKEY!!he shows Q8 hearts! Buuuuuuuuuuuut! Do my 10's hold? doesMr.DONKEY river a Q? has Kelly Brooke got a sexy arse? no,yes,yes!! i,m out in 20th,but winning these suckers looks to be a doddle,keep out of trouble early doors,try to avoid Mr. DONKEY and i feel the jobs a good un!!! as that cost a huge $5 i play a $5 sng,this is easy after i get QQ and 2 players kindly call my huge raises with nothing!!! i just play sensibly and let the numptys knock each other out!! $10 ty!! the banks on $248 and i feel good about my play! gl all laterz!

Through a telescope!

Just wrote a huge blog and then deleted the mf by mistake!! Last nite i lost 1x $10 sng when my ill timed huge bluff and huger cont.bet ran into a hand then a 6 handed $10 sng ended when my 1050 all in after the flop (5 7 10 rainbow) with KK was called by the BB,i'd allready bet 150 then 350,which he quickly called, he had Q10 spades,i was so far in front he would need a telescope to see me!! he then managed to turn/river 2 spades for the flush Grrrrrrrrr!! The next game ($10 10 player top 5pays etc sng) i play tighter than terry tite from titesville!! i dont play a hand till level 3 (25/50) and im allready 5 of 8! i play AK o/s hard pre flop then see AK5 all diamonds,its checked by 3 players so i bet the pot in case there's a flush to catch me again!! they all muck and after winning a bit with KQ on a K106 board i'm soon 4 of 7 with over 2k.level 5 and the blinds are 100/200,the two shortys have to push and 1 then 2 they go,$20 to me! I need at least a $40 win not to show a loss so i plump for my last $20 pays 5 etc. tight start again,win a couple of little pots to be 3 of 8 going into level 4 (50/100) have to be careful,the shortys are all in or fold,AK helps and i'm safe,my ace is too much for mateys QJ!! The only other excitement was when my BB got raised by another shorty so i went all in with 9 5! he got the message but if that was me i 'd call whatever i had,he'd left himself so short that the next blinds he had to go all in,surely its better to make the decision yourself? o well,$40 soon came my way,it did cost me $50 to win $60(and after laddies 10% i cleared $5!) but could have been a lot worse!! Now tonight I MUST NOT play like a lemon!!! gl all,laterz!
