Sept 24, 2006 - 5 days to go
Well, I don't know about this BLOG site. It is giving me a hard time. I have tried to post 3 time since the last post but they just won't go. Anyway lets hope I can get this one! I really haven't been up to much, I have played quite a bit of poker over the last couple days and have had a couple of big scores. Lets see My play looks a little like this over the last week
Sun 17th Brantford 10/20 --> +975
Tue 19th Brantford 20/40 --> +1400
Wed 20th Brantford 20/40 --> -170
Fri 22nd Brantford 20/40 --> +1000
Fri 22nd Brantford 30/60 --> +2170
Fri 22nd Roy's (neighbor)--> +140
Sat 23rd Roy's .25/.5NL --> -80
All in all it has been a great week (up 5435 dollars in 42 hours) if every week goes this well I won't need to go back to work! Some highlights of the play in the 30/60 game. I was involved in a pot that was capped pre-flop 9 ways (for those of you who are not poker experts that means that 9 people put in 4 bets of $120 before the first 3 card were even dealt on the board, that's $1080) I had AQ and the board came AQ5 rainbow turn K river 5, My hand holds up and I win over 2000. The whole time I played 30/60 I ran into no brainers, twice I flopped sets and was up against top 2 pair. It was a fun session. If they could only all be that nice!
Brantford casino has been NUTS over the last week, it is because they have been running there big tourneys. I was going to play in the 1K event but unfortunately I was unable to get a seat. I didn't pre-register cause I thought I was going to be Mexico. So I just played cash games instead.

Saturday Shirley and I went to the Mandrian in Mississauga. We met up with her parents, and her sister(Jane) to have a family get together, for Janes birthday. The food was execellent as always, but I really didn't eat as much as I normally do. I don't know why but I just wasn't really that hungry. I drove Shirleys car the restaurant, it sucks she needs a new cluch, I could barley get the car to change gears. So I guess I just have to add that to the list of things that I have to get done over the next 4 days. I'm sure it will be cheap!
Well I really do not have a whole more to say, I've been playing in the party poker million dollar tourney while I have been writing this BLOG entry, and I'm doing pretty good. I'm going to go and hopefully do well. If I place in the money I will write another BLOG.
