POSITIVE TILT week....

Employers informed of small hourly increment from 1st December

Car showroom informed of successful application for a 2017 new car finance deal.. but...

Blew a €8 buy in at a 0.10/0.20 PLO table and 3 x €1 twisters

First twister was for €2 prize and was first out with AJ (AIPF) versus AT....:f_mad:

Second twister was for €6 prize and doubled up early but lost 2 flips HU with QQ versus A9 then running JJ into AA ..lol haha that's poker baby:f_cry:

Third twister was also unbelievably for €6 and found myself HU as the dog but lost a flip with TT v 88 ....OMG lol haha:f_ugly:

Sunday we all went to test drive a possible new 2017 jam jar,

opened up the Irish Open lucky dip promotions tab on PartyPoker and found a $5.50 ticket which I used and won a $22 ticket for next Sunday,

clawed back some losses at Ladbrokes on a 2c/4c table

bought in for £16 at SkyPoker on a 10p/20p table and retired with £38 :f_zZz:

ONE HAS TO CONTROL ONES TILT!... But will try 3 more twisters next week :f_thumbsup:

So twister no.3 for the week was for 2 euro and down to HU and evenly matched on chip count.

On the BU with J9 sees my raise called and after the ace high all club flop is checked to me I bluff off the rest of my stack with nowt as villain calls with the K of clubs. I DON'T SUCK OUT.

Bad week at skypoker but I use the $22 Irish open token at Partypoker and earn a $109 token for next Sunday's sat with 2 seats gtd to the live event.....

Ah well I've not lost my BR at Ladbrokes so I'll try another 3 twisters next week...THE WORM COULD TURN

So the worm has turned for a little while at least....:f_thumbsup:

PLO has had more ups than downs...phew :f_wink: have now increased the buy in from 1.60 to the 4 euro max:f_p:

Twister number 1 ended when the short stack BU open jammed and I being the chip leader in the SB attempted to isolate with AT but the BB called all in.

My multi-way AT held without improving WTF! :f_biggrin:

Twister number 2. Well I folded my button (tut tut) and the blinds got AIPF with QQ v JJ.

HU as the shortie and played smallball. Villain kept folding, seemingly waiting for a hand.

Took the chip lead. Raised the BU/SB with K4 and villain pushed his remaining 2 and a half BB stack with A9..........
MY TURN TO SUCK OUT WITH THE FLOPPED KING !!:f_rolleyes:

Received token to play in tonight's weekly freebet freeroll.

Will go for the 'Twister Hat-Trick' on Sunday before the €1150 Irish Open seat attempt.:f_o:

Ordered the brand new car that's to be delivered on or around 10th January 2017.

Special thanks goes to my 35 cents per hour wage increase (from 5th December) that allowed us (the family) to go for the higher spec model ...:f_drink:

The bankroll is now over the brighter side of €30....may it still keep going towards the sunshine!:f_cool:

Strategic decision.....Transferred remaining 29 euros from Ladbrokes on to new Gala account (opened with 20 and received a free 9 euros)

received 30 x new player MTT tokens and 5 x 5 euro tokens.

Used a 5 euro token for a PLO rebuy and used 5 in real money for an add on but cashed for a minimum pay cheque.

Will go for the twister hat-trick on Gala tomorrow :f_thumbsup:

So I took advantage of the 2nd free capital offer and opened an account at Gala with 20 euro to substitute the 27.11 euro on Ladbrokes.

The 9 euro free money received on Gala made up the bankroll difference. Nice bit of poker strategy methinks:thinking:

Used a free 5 euro token to cash for 17 euro in PLO MTT and another on twister to win 10 euro.
won a 13 euro pot at 4 cent PLO and bought in for 8 euro at 20 cent PLO and doubled up (Rolf Slotboom fashion) and scarpered.

Join the weekend series of poker. After blowing off the cobwebs and firing up at Pokerstars, I find I had been awarded a free $10 which paid for the Pokerstrategy home games. No joy in these apart from luckboxing the bounty of Metalmonkey for $10!:D

Bad news I missed the 1 euro twister hat-trick and made the wrong move at the wrong time in the satellite final at Party poker for an Irish Open seat.:evil:

Merry Xmas everybody.

I've just started playing again because of the recently Informed loss of a principal cleaning contract in February 2020.

I shall be working part time only from then on and playing poker.

I am mainly playing on Ladbrokes but will satellite dabble on Paddypower in an attempt to qualify for the Irish open in 2020.
