To the promised land....

Well, I am off. Shortly leaving to go to Manchester before jetting off to Tenerife for a week, absolutely pumped!
I am hoping and perhaps expecting that me and Jon take a trip to a casino while we are out there, something different and maybe make some spending money from the Spanish or drunk tourists!
If not, i am 100% confident that there will be numerous home games, albeit for insignificant amounts. Looking forward to that..just chilling on the balcony playing some cards, we haven't done it for ages.

Haven't played on Stars since my last post now but I still managed to watch my roll grow..
As you know I got into the final 2000 or so of the $250k the other night for a $21 cash. Well I got an email from Stars and they cocked it up a bit. Had some sort of defect during the tournament but in a nutshell...I moved up the standings by about 100 places, thus taking me into the next payout level. Obviously it was a relatively insignificant amount but it takes my roll up to $45.

Absolutely chuffed to bits with that and my ability to steer clear of rampaging. In days gone by that would now have got my 2 min sit downs on 50/1 and see where I can go! Happy I haven't done that. Although I am kind of tempted to see where I can get with it, particularly as the roll has been grinded from literally nothing so any loss is completely ineffective on a psychological level.

Hopefully have moments on the holiday to chill and think a bit about poker and chat about it with Jon so maybe when I am back there will be a new post with some clear direction to it.

GL!
