Xmas Bonus

Morning Chappies and Lassies,

Haven’t posted much later as to be honest there hasn’t been a lot to report on. Its been very bust the last few days work wise and am trying to get everything done so I can have some sort of break. We’ve had our office party now which was quite a laugh and I am pretty sure that the photos aren’t too embarrassing but everyone had a good time – right enough of the waffle and on to the poker.

The last few days I haven’t played huge amounts as there has been a load to do and last night I got in from work at about 8.20 and fired up The BigSlick (great site). I decided to enter the $10 rebuy which has a guarantee of $35k. I bought the extra 1500 chips at the start and then did the add on so laid out a total of $30 – about £21. There was 1109 runners altogether as obviously it was a low buy in and had a good guarantee.

I started off well and then got up to about 32k and was donked when my AK lost to A9 and then QQ to 10 10. This sent me down to 4k and wasn’t looking to good. I then ran good for the next 20 mins and got up to the dizzy heights of 78k and into the top 10. It was at this point that my dear beloved wife (I hope she doesn’t read this by the way) was asking how long I would be as she wanted to go to bed. I told her that I felt that I was going to win tonight after having recovered like I did and she said well you always say that. It was at this point that I had a bit of a dilemma – she had had an Ann Summers Party the other night and wanted to play so do I turn down a very tempting offer or stop playing hmmmm. Well not being the one to turn down a good offer I sat out and returned later to carry on so managed to have a good old session amidst the game – loverly.

I was still in a good position when I got back and think I played pretty well to go on to take the $7,350 first prize which is about £5,000 sterling so nice Xmas bonus and I think Ill treat the missus to something special.

So for just a 20 quid layout I won £5,000 – I couldn’t have dreamt of doing that on Betfair so it just goes to show that there is loads of potential for the small players to make lots of money so would really suggest that if you haven’t tried it yet that you do so. Please E Mail me and I will show you how you can open an account and enjoy all the benefits as well as being part of out VIP rewards scheme where you get a % of your tournament and poker fees back.

It is always nice to win a tournament so to win this one was a little special to me as I have final tabled on the new site a number of times but this was my biggest one to date on IPOKer and a nice little bonus for Xmas. First time I’ve had over 4 million chips as well.

Well I have to nip off now and take my 2 boys Xmas shopping so that they can treat their mum and Ill do the same. Looking forward to it like a hole in the head as I detest shopping and the only time I go is this once a year Xmas thing.

Be lucky at the tables and all the best – catch u later
