First of all what a great 24 hrs of Poker i've just had.
First off an early bath in the 11.00pm $5k GTD (crypto).
Onto Betfair and again an early exit in EWS.
Back to Hills for the £10 HH 00.14am and the 00.30am $1300 GTD $10 entry.
Played very well in both, got outdrawn a few times in HH but had a massive one go in my favour when i pushed with A8 for my tourny life, got called by AK, A on the flop, 8 on river phew !!!
Made FT in both and got HU in HH v guy who had given me a bit of grief earlier for pushing 5 hands in row. He said i was tilting but i actually had 5 small pps in a row.
Then i got dealt AA --

Take it down :D
11 Heads and 1st place for £290
In the $1300 GTD i finish in 4th for $98.
Off work today so i decided to enter the Betfair 2.15pm $2000 GTD - $30 entry 69 runners
Won a Big 8,000 pot early with the nut flush and i was sitting pretty throughout.
With 15 left i was in a pot for 25k (with the eventual winner) i push with JJ he calls with AK
K on the river to cripple me :(
Manage a double up and back in the game.
Took ages from 10 to 9 before we finally got to the FT.
I had average stack and tried to choose my moments carefully.
We were down to 5 got KQs on button push with my remaining 10k insta call with AA (great timing) and i am gone.
$165 a good return though :)
5 MTTs, 1 win and 2 FTs very happy :)
Onto the Dogs and first of all i went to see my new puppy on Sat 19th.
We went to the kennels of Rachael and Graham, they are a lovely couple.
After a long chat (seemed like we had known them ages) and a coffee they brought two puppies into the conservatory, mine and Gordons who has also purchased one.
They are beautiful, mine, a black dog with 4 white feet and a white chest named Dan.
Gordans is fawn with black and white face and feet named Lachlen.
They were running around and playing and just being puppies :)
Loads of fuss and photos, then back inside for another drink and chat before off home.

There you go, caught up again ;)
The Second City Derby takes place on Sunday and both of us have plenty to play for.
Chelsea beating Everton last night may open the door for us into Europe, if we beat the Blues we then travel to Goodison next week for a massive game.
The Blues need a win to help in their Relegation dog fight.
Lets have a good game and let the best team win ;)
The Scottish National tomorrow and lets try and do better in this than the Grand National.
I know its got top weight but i really fancy Halcon Genelardais to run a Big Big race !!!!!!
Thx and GL

Grand National Thoughts
Tomorrow is our busiest day of the year by far, all those once a year punters asking the same old questions but its a great day and usually flies by. Lets hope for a trouble free day ;)
The race itself is as competitive as ever and with the bottom weight carrying 10 stone 7 lbs, only 19lbs covers the whole field which has to be a first. I will highlight a few contenders.
Cloudy Lane has a Favs chance but at around 6/1 i will not be interested.
Comply Or Die i feel will struggle to get round and i think he will be Pulled Up.
Slim Pickings, out of all the horses to finish the course last year i feel he will come out best of them and run into a place again.
Simon was going well last year when falling and although he has a different jockey (possible upgrade for me) i think if the ground doesn't dry up to much he has a major chance (On at 20/1 e/w in December)
Bewleys Berry has similar claims to Simon and must be on anyones shortlist granted a clear round.
Butlers Cabin has AP aboard but i am not sure if he has fallen out with the game.
Hedgehunter will jump round but at his age with a big weight cant see him winning (6-12 place finish for me)
Knowhere is an interesting contender, he beat Our Vic easily in Jan and that form is solid now, could go well at a price.
Iron Man (ran in Gold Cup) is the biggest longshot in the race if you fancy a speculative punt.
Others that interest me if they are still intact with their jockeys at halfway would be Snowy Morning, Mr Pointment, Dun Doire (given too much to do in 2007), D'argent, Turko, Black Apalachi and Backbeat.
My prediction for the race is ..............................
1 Simon
2 Knowhere
3 Slim Pickings
4 Bewleys Berry
probably way off the mark but GL with your picks.
