We're all Poker guns....

I played in a Poker game the other night at my local club, they were a fairly tight knit bunch of guys, obviously been playing there for a while. I did alright, until I had a brain snap just before the final table and it just so happened to be one of the chip leaders. I got dealt pocket 4’s, everyone folded to my right, so it left me and the Big stack. I raised a small amount, he called. Flop came down 3, 9, k. He lead out with a smallish bet. I called. Turn, 9. He bets same amount and I say all-in. I put him on AQ or AJ, didn't think he had the King. Anyway, he turns over 4, 9. River was a rag, so he cleaned me out. I was spewing, I noticed a couple of guys snigger - I don't blame them really, I played the hand very ordinary. Another lesson learnt for me.

One thing I noticed though whilst sitting at the table, 75% of the guys were all talking and carrying on like they were pro's - acting like real pork chops if ya ask me. Ah well, I'll head back next week and have another shot - hopefully shut a few of them up :o)

Have a good weekend.

Plenty been happening...

I'm sure everyone goes through spells where they are out of the game for while? I haven't played Poker in over a month. It really does feel like an eternity. Actually, this weekend, I'm going away for a short honeymoon. We're staying at a Casino, so I dare say at some stage I will be visiting the tables :o)

And yes, you heard right, Dave Casey has tied the knot. What an experience, what a party. It was awesome. We had almost all my family and friends there. We've received heaps of compliments saying how good it was. I think the fact it was so casual was the reason, heck, I was in a pair of shorts for crying out loud (it was on the beach).

Anyway, there's plenty happening in the Poker Rooms. I've started up a Poker Club, there's going to be plenty of prizes up for grabs, as well as a heap of cash. Make sure you check it out. I'll post the link here next week.

Well, that's all from me for now. Catch ya soon.
