Action at the cash tables...

Well, since recovering from my visit to the hospital with some serious gastritis, I've been playing poker full time.

I am looking for a job, but there isn't much around for me in my chosen field... shame.

The action at the cash tables has been pretty sick and I have managed to make a decent profit over the last two weeks.

Danny Paxton has been on fire recently at the cash tables and on Friday he just couldn't miss, hitting straight flushes, quads and full houses like they are common occurrences. In one hand, Phil Da Silva tried trapping Danny with Pocket Kings, but Danny had flopped quad 10s!

On Tuesday, I popped in for an hour before heading off to the flicks to watch Wolverine and when I came back to the club at about 12:30am, Lord Whipp was sitting on quite literally thousands of chips! It's the most I have seen anyone cashing-in at the local £2/£4 game!

Anyway, last Friday was HEAT ONE of the FHP SPRING SERIES and so far, the leaderboard looks like this:

Jason Harrison - 10 points

Will Picot - 9 points

Craig Le Boutillier - 8 points

Tania - 7 points

Warren - 6 points

Phil Da Silva - 5 points

Alan Mason - 4 points

Ashton - 3 points

Brad - 2 points

Gaz Campbell - 1 point

I am looking forward to attending the BLACK BELT POKER BOOT CAMP in London in a few weeks time. Two days of intensive poker workshops with Irish Open Champion and Vic regular, Neil Channing, and Poker after Dark nut job, Phil Laak!

Neil is probably my favourite UK player and I loved Phil's show with Antonio Esfandiari, I BET YOU... plus I always enjoy watching the duos antics on televised poker, so should be a blast learning from these two for a few days.

The camp is limited to 50 attendees and the highlight is a tournament on Saturday night to win a $5000 package to the World Series of Poker, including flights to Vegas, accommodation and entry into the $1500 tournament of the winner's choice... for me that would be either the Pot Limited Omaha or NLH tournament... BRING IT ON!

Not to mention some cash games in the Vic on the Friday and Sunday night, I am looking forward to it!

At the end of the month I have my trip to Turks and Caicos, where I hope to cover the cost of the trip at the cash tables...
