Is there anything anymore annoying than deciding to leave at a certain time, but for one reason or another you end up staying a little longer, and lose a bunch of money?

Ahhhhh! I was pumped up last night, putting another solid session at The Empire, when The Horse rocks up with a couple of dealers from The Vic and I end of juicing off about £400.

Fucking cunts! (Just kidding!). For the record Rob didn't come down with the dealers, they came before he did, nor were they talking or socialising, nothing like that. So can we stop the Ban The Horse From The Vic campaign? Its getting old already.

I cant feel too bad but I really did have one of them really frustrating days.

I got my money in good against short stacks several times on the flop only to be outdrawn. These pots really do add up over a long session, and can effect the flow of a session.

If you manage to fade a short stack's flush draw and pick up a £80-£160 pot, this can really force the momentum of the session in your favour. Whereas when you lose these pots, you naturally tighten up, and there is a negative shift in momentum.

Also in one particular pot I flopped top set verses Sy's nut straight, on a board of 10 6 9 rainbow. 3 way pot I found myself sandwiched in between Rob The Horse and Syko Sy.

Rob check called my flop and turn bets, and Sy hoping for Rob to make a move called behind both streets, and raised my river bet (once The Horse open folded the brick river). The way the hand played out, and the amount of money in the pot, I reluctantly had to call Sy's raise, which is pretty much always going to be the nuts.

That hand was the icing on the fucking shit cake for me, I should of gone at 7am, but found myself playing short handed with two of probably the best, toughest low-mid stakes NLHE players in London. Weeee...love the game selection...

Imagine looking across the table at these two beasts! I dare you to squeeze or 3 bet light these mother fuckers, they defend with more aggression than a bum raped mother goat!

The egos...go to battle!

June is coming to a decent close, I am in the midst of a £2.5k upswing, and continue to feel immensely motivated (though very exhausted).

Taking tonight off to hang out at home and eat myself to obesity!

Weeeee....
