Had a great weekend in Blackpool, was good to meet up with fellow PLers again!

As for the poker, enjoyed trhis game a lot! I managed to get up to about 14/15k but then went onto lose about 8k in one pot and stayed steady on 5k/6k for about 2 hours!

I then doubled up with JQc when I hit top two pair on the flop, then went onto double up again with 10Js when hitting the nut straight!

Eventually got upto about 50k before blowing up with 88 against JJ.
Blinds 1k/2k, i limped in mide position, big stack raised to 8k which I called, flop came down 9 5 5, he bet another 8k, I thought that was a continuation and instantly put him on AJ, AQ, and re-raised to 24k, he went into the tank and went all in, I look down at my stack and realise I only have about 12k left and with a 60k+ pot in the middle I figured I couldnt really fold and made the call Jacks held and that was me in 65th!

However was a good experience and really enjoyed it, I think a lack of experience in these games played a part in the eventual outcome!

A big well done to Ross (Rosco) for finishing 12th and getting all of the PL points!

Will see some of you guys in newcastle in two weeks!

I think the amount of alcohol probably played a big part in the eventual outcome!

Well done guys I'm sure you did the bar proud.


Shame the poker got in the way a bit.

[WASP]

If nobody else will say it I will

The other forums had better players, thats why they did better, can we not just give credit where it is due?

Though I think some teams were taking it more seriously than us, I think all of us tried to play our game and nobody belittled the challenge. People took out a lot of time, effort and money to attend this weekend, so I doubt anybody was chucking the towel in. So a big thanks to everyone who made the effort and well done Ross

I personally do not have any excuses or bad beats I just played bad on what was a very easy table, I lost the first hand and then continued to lose every hand after that, it happens some days.

congrats on making the money Ross, I think you did a runner at the right time as there was a dispute over paying out too much for the early cashers.

good to bump into a number of you again this weekend, and hopefully see a few more in September at DTD.

[rosco]

I got paid for what it said on the board for 12th.

Aimee had work to do and wanted to go

congratulations to Lou for 10th,

[msaban]

yeah casino made a mistake with what they had put up on the screen and then tried to claim it all back, which was never going to happen, so I understand they accepted their mistake, but the FT got paid what had been previously advertised on the APAT site.

I only re-raised all-in once, when I flopped open ended straight draw

I thought I'd try seeing a few flops to see what developed.

Although my play in the cash games was a bit odd late on

Sorry - I remember another re-raise now, but I did have flush draw.
