back in blighty....

Last post I was flying home in a few hours yet had lost my passport. Surprise surprise called a local bar up and it was in there! Flight home as ever was a pleasure on Virgin Atlantic. They are far superior to any other airline I have ever used and I am guessing I have used 20+.

First day back I decided to try some omaha cash, immediately I made a profit then lost this hand to go $2000 in profit in 5 minutes, i eventually left the table $100 up.

This hand pretty much sums up how easy it is to make money on omaha cash if you play solid. When the flop pairs it definitely is not good to call bets let alone reraise or chase with draws. The really bad players even call with non nut flush/straight draws when they could be drawing dead.

Next I catch a fish and win 2/2 $200 hu omaha SNG during the second he asks me to play him 5/10 plo cash. He is sat with $480 and usually I would not sit in as it looks like it is the last money in his account and if so the potential loss outweighs the potential win. I am losing around $6000 and pull back some and am sitting with $2500, this is too deepstacked for the cypriot fish luckbox who leaves and I am minus £2500 to him. At the last check I have pulled back around £1500 of the £2500 loss and am currently down £1000 today. So no big deal, longterm I will make plenty versus the omaha fish.

Now to try and get a few more dolla before I go to sleep.....

Cambodian families go hungry tonight :(


(click on image to enlarge)




Playing a few single table tournaments for medium stakes as I am not so much in a poker mood today when a strange thing happened. My old friend Doobs registered for one of my heads up omaha games, you may think why is this strange? Well here are three reasons:

1) I generally don't join my friends games
2) He is awful at heads up
3) He barely knows the rules of Omaha (in fact last time we spoke he was calling it nomaha!)

Well anyways as you can see he lost (after several suck outs when he was all in eventually skillz came through!). Now I have a predicament, I know he supports members of his wifes family in Cambodia financially. Several people lately have told me due to the weakened sterling he is struggling to support them. So perhaps this suggests his tilt and playing me on heads up omaha? I would refund him the money but he must learn his lesson, so here is what I propose. I am going to send the money to a charity that helps poor Cambodian people, so this way at least as intended the money ends up with poor Cambodians. Here is a link for anyone else wanting to help the poor of Cambodia.

http://www.cambodianchildrensfund.org/

On another note, meant to fly home today but lost my passport. Oops!! Good luck all, and remember to help the poor Cambodians if you can. To my american readers happy thanksgiving tomorrow!

Yet again another ugly side of online poker shows its face....

People constantly change accounts and play other peoples. Often I bust people so bad that they literally beg me not to play them heads up. At first they will say I get lucky, then in end they just admit defeat and generally I will avoid their games. I have lots of money and am not desperate for a few dollars. Over the last few weeks a new account has popped up called lisa8, generally playing $40 games which are of no interest to me. Occasionally popping up to a $200 game winning one then running back to $40 games. It is well known I don't really play games under $400 or so seriously, however as soon as I notice a player joining my games a few times thinking they can beat me I just play better and always end up in profit against them. This lisa8 is ranting and raving about how much better than me HE is. Today someone tells me it is homeboy8, some low stake loser who has played pretty much 2000 SNG for virtually no profit.

Now the irony is that homeboy8 was actually on my msn, having won around five straight games he begs me not to join his games. So I am generous enough to leave him be. Now what makes someone make a new account join my games, berate me and tell me how much better they are than me when I have won $40,000 on omaha SNG during the same period they have made $1000. To play someone with a different account and not tell them is pretty low. Obviously the first few games anyone plays against me they have more of a chance than say after we have played 10-20. I almost always end up working anyones game out which is why over a large sample of games only two or three players are in profit over me.

So now this homeboy8/lisa8 idiot who begs me not to play them and then tries to play me on a different account is fucked. I will target the idiot now and send him back to $10 games. In addition I will get the decent lower stakes players to target him. He is just a weasel so if ever I did see him I would likely just flush his head down a toilet. What a stupid stupid stupid degenerate loser. You can't play online poker successfully for many years without realising slippery tricks that some whores will try.

Punterz meets Nelly....


No tequilla or anything, just a quick photo with Mr Nelly. I was not trying to make any pose I was pointing how to use the camera as the picture was taken. No need to pretend me and Mr Nelly were balling, that only happened with NFL players and beautiful women. The rappers haven't invited me for patron yet! I think I have just won the betfair Heavyweight and Middleweight leaderboards for the seventh week in a row, so thats seven weeks the promotion runs and seven weeks I have won the top two of the three leaderboards...perhaps the easiest £7500 I have made in a long while! A few more days in florida to try and do some random things yet I doubt I will leave the villa much, Vegas takes a lot out of me each time.

Just decided to try $2000 buying in short on a six handed game and lasted around one minute, nice....

forty-one dollars

A nice surprise as I was checking out of the Venetian Resort, two nights room minibar and internet charges costing just over $1000 was covered by the casino. To my knowledge I did not play anything other than poker so christ knows why I was comped so much. I must have made friends with someone within the casino with some authority when I was drunk. I am curious to know why I was comped but did not want to ask incase it cost me $1000!

I have enough cash for cab to airport and a burger king meal. The burger tasted good, bar some sushi the night before I had not eaten in two days. Now there is two hours before my flight and I really fancy a pint of cold beer, however I have a dollar left. I play some poker online and disconnect several times costing me a few hundred dollars. This last month it has cost me $2000-3000 from disconnectins, its part of the game online though and often I have benefited from others disconnecting. A long time ago I realised that when your opponent disconnected never play slow or refund them as there will be times when this happens to you. Last Thursday I was in three heads up SNG with 5-1 chip advantages when the internet crashed, one scandi tramp 'Fish Fair' even found me later and laughed saying thanks for the money, at the time of disconnection I had 2700 v 300 chips. Still lets hope something nasty happens to him in the near future, perhaps he can catch an STD the next time he is in Thailand screwing ladyboys. No more digressing, back to myself and my dollar. I really want a beer, I feel hungry. All this is because I know I have no money, two drunken nights surely I have money somewhere. I check a small pocket in my shorts and sure enough there is $41 in there! I feel like the richest man in the world, or the man lost in the desert who finds water. Off to the bar where I had one of the most enjoyable pints of beer in my entire life. There is still change for a few drinks and sandwich on the flight back to Florida.

Less than a week until I am back in England, I doubt much will happen before then as I intend to stay in most of the time and take it easy....although in my life random things on a daily basis almost are standard. Bye for now....

Last night in Vegas.....EVER???

WOW, how disgusting. Can I ever come back to Las Vegas? Surely not. It is now four in the afternoon in England or 8 a.m. Vegas time. I flew around 2500 miles to go for ice cream with a girl who was not there. This is enough for life tilt, now I have all the toppings to go with. I go to Vegas armed with a one way ticket and $2000 and my bank card (unlimited funds!). I spend the day goofing around on a 1/2 table (if I play 6 hours my room is $150 instead of $450). First few minutes I lose $300, dont run 8 hi into pocket aces I guess! I then slow down and break evens over the next three hours. Actually a good table, even though all my opponents are american! One shout out to Mike who is just Mr Smooth with the ladies (so obvious) and another shout to the Italian section (they are more american). So thats the 1/2 boring cash stuff out of the way lets move on...


I am off to meet her from work, this is the biggest day of my life. Played world series main events, dated girls from ten different countries, been in boxing matches, been to court with the threat of years in jail, none of these things put me under the pressure I felt last night. No matter what happens in life I can take it, except for a date with the most beautiful girl in the world. I have dated some of the most beautiful girls in the world, but this is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD. Must stay sober before then, had just one drink all day. I turn up she is not there, 2500 miles to get stood up!? WOW now the night just has to get messy, I am hoping its a $2000 nite and not $50,0000. I go back to the Venetian, I know a few cash players and they want me to get on the tequilla (apparently the last hand I played the day before I was all in blind for $600 and lost 57 v JJ). I am so angry still I don't want to give them any money just yet. I head to a bar and have around ten 'any cocktails', that is where the barman gives me any drink he chooses. I meet four american guys and then we are off to the most expensive sushi restaurant in town. I recall ordering the most expensive sake in the place then downgrading to $900 bottle and getting two of those. Next minute I am in a shop trying shirts on with the manager of the restaurant as I had gotten food on my sleeve. Thinking about it she was even in the changing rooms with me, now I go to pay and can't find my card so I pay in cash, around $400 I believe. ALARM BELLS I HAVE LOST MY BANKCARD... hardly I am drunk and on life tilt so don't care. I have the girls number and she asks me to meet her in a few hours when she finishes work.....

Then I wake up 6 hours later in my room with no money and no bank card, so no girl yesterday and no money now. I need to play like one hour more on 1/2 cash and my room is $700 less over two days. But I can't! I still have to go back to florida and now have no money or access to money. I wish i did not spend $300 on the shirt, I have spent half as much for better shirts in London. In fact I think I have the same shirt for $50. Oops that reminds me I am sure that I left my cufflinks in the store, even more lost. The cost of the night is thankfully very cheap for me considering, $2200 on alcohol, $300 shirt and $500 lost cufflinks.

I am generally so lucky and run good, I earn more money than I deserve simply playing online poker. Doctors, soldiers, cops all work harder than me for nowhere near as much. Yet just one time I needed to run good and did not, you can have one dollar or a million dollars and never ever meet your dream girl. I met her, went back and she was not there. I would have paid $20,000, make that $100,000 for the weekend to have gone well. The last two nights have cost me around $7000 and now i am in Vegas with no girl, no ice cream and no money. Still at least I have a ridiculously overpriced shirt, I am too scared to even look at it. Will this nightmare stop me doing crazy and random things, I think not. This is what makes life so good, the unpredictablity and highs and lows. As for Carina....I will be back and find her and marry her. This will happen and then last night will all be forgotten. So for now I shall have to live off of roadkill and grass for the next week or so until I can go back to London and get some money and a new card. I can't even book a flight home earlier with no card, I can't believe how much I rely on my debit card.

NO GIRL AND NO ICECREAM, life can be cruel. Now it is lifetilt unless I turn into the amazing poker player that I am and use the mental strength. I will turn this around and get the girl and the ice cream....wait I will get my own icecream factory! Sorry to the girl I stood up last night as I know how it feels...

Punterz 1-1 Beautiful girls of Las Vegas.


Also how can sake cost almost $1000 a bottle, it tastes awful. If a few bottles helps you get a date with a nice girl then fine...BUT dont go back to room and fall asleep! Right thats it, I am heading out of Vegas and I will never come back unless it is to see my dream girl. Too depressed to even stay and watch the Hatton fight today, that reminds me I have booked two rooms at another hotel for three days and not cancelled, O well it is only money. I am going to be busting players left right and centre online during December, christmas will be ruined for so many but I don't care as I did not get my ice cream....... (off to hitch hike back to London)

Phew.....

Having been £7000 up in three days I managed to lose it all back plus £2000 more the next three days, the seventh day saw me save the week and end up a small winner.


Punterz08 931 £0.81 £102 3% £751 LLLLWLWL Betfair <1Wk x

What should have been a 10k+ week has ended up being a slog to make barely more than I would in a sweat shop in india. Could have been worse I guess, I don't think I will ever beat the new account curse. For a long time these new accounts pop up in $1000 games win loads then simply vanish a month or two later. If I was winning lots I would stick with the account/site and not vanish. Some day in the future I am sure I will learn more about this. Anyways for one week my stats read almost 1000 games but taking out the super turbo games which take an average of five minutes I have played under 500. Better not take away the super turbos actually as without them I would not have made a profit other than rakeback and leaderboard cash!

Punterz08 526 £1.32 £34 2% £694 LLLWLLLL Betfair<1Wk Spd=T

Back to Vegas tomorrow, it could be for one day or one week or longer who knows. It all depends on my progress with the world's most beautiful lady. Talking of her I managed to mess up when sending flowers to her last week. Here is an extract from the delivery drivers email:

We went through the shift schedules and the dealer name lists to locate the person and the closest we found was two women, one by the name of Coreena, and one by the name of Carina. Both sounded very much alike and I wasn't able to make an educated decision on who the recipient was. Both girls had a similar-sounding name, they both worked at the same section, and they both worked that evening around 9 p.m.


Just my luck, no point resending this week as she is not at work until when I am in Vegas anyways. Kind of funny and sums my week up. If the next seven days are opposite from the last then I will come back from Vegas rich and married! May I run good tomorrow and may I find a wife in vegas....or can only my good friend 'doobs' find a wife in Vegas. We shall see!

http://punterzpoker.blogspot.com/2008/11/small-world.html


I shall be back in a few days with a tale to tell no doubt. Hopefully good news. I can't afford to tilt in Las Vegas so lets hope I don't get blown out! I am even going to try an all honest approach without even one white lie. Can 100% honesty really work? I shall see! Good luck and stay tuned as next week will have some action around here.

Brand new player at betfair, plays high stakes and sucks out over and over, seen it all before. My bad for still playing high stakes when clearly something doesn't add up. Other losses included all in on AK8 flop with A8 v A5, thats life! I won;t lose sleep over it, I made £6000 in two days then lost it back the last two, no big deal. I made a small profit on the Cowboys tonight, whoop whoop! My man Keith Davis is 1/1 so far, in the third quarter he made an absolutely crunching tackle on a guy twice his size. I shall email him my gratitude in the morning.

Good luck all, and remember at times on some sites it IS FUCKING RIGGED TO FUCK. SUPERUSERS RULE

Can't always win...

Ooops last check down £3500 on the day, was £5000. Been unlucky to start with then played bad combined spells disaster.

Punterz08 85 -£28.25 £197 -9% -£2,402 WWWLWWLLBetfair <16Hours x

Plus £1000 on hu cash having been £1000 up. Honestly can't remember the last time i ran so bad, played so bad and opponents sucked out so much. Amazing really that I can have such a nightmare day yet have decent sng stats over the last seven days still.


Punterz08 671 £4.8 £89 7% £3,218 LWWWLWWL Betfair <1Wk x


O well it is only money, £3200 profit for seven days plus £1300 ish for leaderboards and £1000 rakeback it pays the bills. Next week is a new week and I am sure I will run well, especially on my date with the babe in Las Vegas later in the week! It is a long flight for just one date but it will be worth it I am sure. What is the point of living life if you don't do crazy things from time to time. Added that she is the best looking girl in the world, I would put her picture here but there are a few too many crazies around.

On a side note Keith assures me that the cowboys are a certainty against the redskins in the sunday night game so fill your boots people. Good luck on the tables and good luck me on friday night...

NFL FEVER

So many more people outside of north america are starting to follow NFL, myself included. On my last trip to Vegas I was watching the Joe Calzaghe v Roy Jones 'fight' when I noticed a player who I recognised as a member of the Miami Dolphins...or so I thought! He has since moved to the Dallas Cowboys I now know. I drank a few tequillas with him and spoke a bit about poker, american football and Vegas etc. The outcome now I have tickets for cowboy games if I am in Texas and now if I am having a bet and not quite sure which way to go I will ask him for his advice!

For those not familiar with the Cowboys safety here is a link with his picture:

What the hell i have posted a picture after many tequillas at the Hawaiian tropics bar and also a picture of one of our lovely waitresses:

Vegas Taxi cons.....

In Las Vegas the taxi drivers often try cheap tricks. Do not fall for them, if they tell you that they don't have change for your bill tell them they must find it or take less. Anyways leaving Venetian going to airport and its 6a.m the guy says do I want to go the fast way or normal way. It is 6a.m. and zero traffic, I say just take me to airport. Anyways he starts saying he loves London and his brother moved there from Somalia and he moved to america from there and they both got lucky chances. We arrive at airport and meter is on $32, I have been vegas ten+ times and knew he took me a long route. The fare should be around $15, now it is not the money as I have been winning loads and am happy as I have met the most beautiful girl in the world in the last week. However i am an east london boy and won't be ripped off. I see he understands arabic so I call him a dirty cheating dog in his native lingo and throw $20 in his face as I get out the cab. I said you are a disgrace and should still be living in a mudhut in Somalia, you have had a lucky break and are abusing it. We are British, a proud nation that has achieved so much. Don't keep being shy and hiding in the shadows, if you think something is not right say so. You have a thousand years of success and glory simply being British. Rant over, I hope his mudhut collapses in torrential rain.

Small World.....


On my recent visit to Las Vegas I visited the world famous Rio seafood buffet and the most amazing thing happened. When my server came over I said wow you served me two years ago, she said no that is not possible as she had worked there for just four months. However she said I have a twin sister who used to work here, she added she had met an english poker player during a wsop and married him and moved to England. She then asks me where I am from, am I australian and I say no I am from London England. I had mentioned I played a few previous wsop and she said well my sisters husband is from London also maybe you know him 'David Barraclough'. Me and a few other poker players just looked at eachother in shock, like 'WOW what a small world'. Previously I have thought of David Barraclough aka doobs as an idiot and sad loser who most people find so irritating. Now I realise he may actually be partly decent as 'Mao' told me he sent financial aid to her parents and four brothers and seven sisters still in Cambodia, wow what a decent guy he can be at times.

Leaving Las Vegas...

This vegas trip is over for me now but there are several good stories. Coming soon I have some pictures and videos, including one amazing story about bumping into relatives of the sideburn freak who plays as doobs on betfair and actually thinks he is a world beater. Added features I will post include a bit about poker rooms in Las Vegas. Cheating taxi driver stories also will be featured. This blog will be back with a bang so all sit back and get ready for the posts of the next few days.

Whats it like to cash for a million pounds?

Just realised I have cashed for 1.1 million pounds in SNG on betfair over the last 6 months. I clicked miscellaneous data on sharkscope and apparently I have cashed for over a million pounds, before I get too excited the profit was just £50,000 of that. Still its kind of neat to be the first player to cash for over a million on SNG since betfair data was incorporated on sharkscope. Apparently I have raked £44,000 also so thats over £10,000 more what with the leaderboard money etc like £5000 in october alone from them thats around £100,000. Where does all this money go? Definitely not in my bank! I guess spearmint rhino and caesars palace got some of it the other day. Note to myself when in vegas STOP putting money on red14.

Vegas was full of donks as ever. $550 tournament 6000 chips and I crash level 2. Standard of play worst I have played since a pub £20 rebuy. Three hands I lose on where bb 100 utg all in 3000 I call Ak in sb lose to A8, then i miss overcard nut straight and nut flush draw finally bb 100 still I have 27 in bb unraised 5 limpers flop comes K57 I check raise a 400 bet and caller all in like 2800 and end up getting rivered by KQ for 9000 pot. Such such bad play in vegas, after that I upset loads of people on a cash table whilst at same time having half table laughin until they cried with blind calls, reraises blind and loads of crazy plays yet I still made a few hundred. One hand that was funny was me losing a hand where I miss flush and straight draws, I have 200 in my hand to throw in pot on river with 6 hi bluff yet somehow animal leads out with a bet so i show I only had 6 hi anyways and he turned over a 5 hi bluff! My 6 played and it was funniest cash hand I have ever played. I shall get the lazy jew to put it on his blog. www.pokeranimal.blogspot.com

Anyways hungover as fk so quick swim in pool to freshen me up then more poker and drink I guess. Time to plan an actual poker profit of £1,000,000 from SNG!
