FRIDAY FREEZEOUT

Congrats to Gazza for taking down the £50 Freezeout on Friday. We had 21 players contesting the £2K pot.

Kev took the challenge and made a showing, drawn out of retirement for a 'freezeout'. He got unlucky after limp shoving with AK when Nigel raised in the big blind. Unfortunately for Kev, Nigel was sitting on AA... must be nice!

I went out when my 99 hit Leigh's AA. Bullets flying all over the place!

This Friday we are running the super satellite to Sunday's £150 Deepstack Freezeout! The prizepool will be used to pay for seats to Sunday only and the club is also adding 4 extra seats.

Tuesday is cash game as normal.

See you at the tables...

MIXING THINGS UP ON FRIDAYS AND INTRODUCING THE SUPER SATELLITE!!!

It's going to be a good year for tournament fans and cash game players alike.

We are going to keep running the monthly £150 DEEPSTACK FREEZEOUTS but only run one super satellite on the Friday before. This month's will be on a Sunday (see schedule >>>) but next month we are going to try a Saturday to see how that works.

We will mix things up on the other Fridays, sometimes running re-buys and sometimes £50 freezeouts and we will even put on some of the popular FISH HOOK POKER SERIES.

This Friday, we're running a £50 FREEZEOUT with optional £50 ADD-ON at the break. This means you have to last an hour in order to buy additional chips. 10,000 starting chips and an extra 10,000 at the break.

See you at the tables...

XMAS £3000 GUARANTEED DEEPSTACK!

Whoop whoop!

The Xmas £150 DEEPSTACK FREEZEOUT is next Sunday (13th) at 3pm.

18 players have already won their seats and with the money added from Uncover Poker, we already have over £3000 in the prizepool... awesome.

Poker has been a mixed bag for me this month. I have just moved house and so money is tighter that usual so I am trying to be disciplined with my bankroll management.

Lord Whipp and I were in Bulgaria earlier in the month and we found a sick game in a casino in Sofia - dealer's choice, either NLH 10/20 or Pot Limit Omaha 5/10. Luckily I won the night before in London at the Vic because I lost about 2 large. Whippet smashed the table up hitting straight flushes and quads... the local mafia were NOT happy!

The night before the Pomme's big one (£300 Freezeout) I got hammered on wine and JD whilst playing in the £50 Deepstack at Planet Pool and somehow I managed to win it.

The next day I was very, very rough but managed to hold on until 11th place before my AK got buggered by the Beast's JJ, which turned into a lovely full house for him.

Oh well, won my seat into the £3000 on Sunday. I held a healthy chip lead for most of the night, especially when Dougie picked a spot to bluff off all his chips when I was sat on Quads... oops!

See you at the tables...

DEEPSTACK

£20 RE-BUY TOURNAMENT tomorrow night (Friday) at 7pm as per normal. It will be a straight pay out to the top 5 players (no league, no seats for deepstack, just pure CASH!)

Satellites for the next Deepstack event will start NEXT Friday. See side panel >>>>

Sunday saw 35 players competing for nearly £6000 in prize money, which is awesome!

Congratulations to Dougie Prentice for taking down first place. Dougie dominated my table from the start and took me out before the dinner break! I remember buying a bottle of wine and then playing a sick form of Chinese Pkr with Lord Whipp for hours where up to 4 cards were wild! I don't remember if I won or lost at Chinese and I don't remember how I got home! Awesome...

Dougie's new favourite hand has to be pocket 7s! He eliminated me and took a slug out of Dean's chipstack when his 77 hit a set on the flop making it hard for me to improve with AK suited and forcing Deano to fold his QQ (great laydown and what looked like a harmless flop).

Later on Dougie eliminates another player when his 77 hits QUADS!

Nice to see Dougie last longer that his better half for a change... he he he, only kidding, Doug.

Anyway, see you at the tables on Friday...
