Normality is resumed as the Billy Sharp Show hits town and the red & white wizards give the cash rich muppets that are QPR a lesson in football with an easy 3-0 thrashing. Even better the cocksure wendy pigs manage to fuck it up again by losing in good style 1-4 to Wolves to reverse their previous weeks score and put them where they belong, below us and heading south!
COME ON YOU RED & WHITE WIZARDS - THE BLADES ARE VERY SHARP!!!
Had a home game after the match and the low expected turnout miraculously turned into a full house of 10 runners, maybe it had something to do with the footie result - who knows? We managed to squeeze in 3 games, lots of beer,roast beef sarni's with roast spuds and yorkshire puds with gravy. I threw the first game to complete the cooking but managed a 2nd in the 2nd and split 1st prize in the 3rd.
GOOD TIMES!!!!
I'm off to DTD on Thursday to play the £50+5 super satellite for the £500 deepstack 4-day festival event and I'm hoping that maybe it's my time to win something big!!!
WISH ME LUCK!!!

and so it continues.....
Went to naps last night, even though Barry Neville rang me up AGAIN!!! I'm beginning to wonder if he has any friends. I couldn't of made DTD anyway as I was trying to figure out how to put a cot together without any instructions until 8pm and after quickly jumping in the bath I had to get the toe down to get to naps for 9pm.
My luck in live tournaments continues to be totally shite as my early hands in the £10+1 rebuy include KK beaten by TT with a T on the river and also JJ beaten by 77 with a 7 on the river, am I the most unlucky poker player in the world? - I must be a contender!!!
I actually manage to form a decent stack of 12k ish but with the blinds going up too fast, especially with it being self-deal again, I try and steal the blinds with a raise to 2k from the button with the blinds at 300/600 with Q9 suited. The sb reraises allin and it's another 4100 to call and I'm getting 3/1 in the pot if I call, but I sensibly decide I have enough to pass with 10k (was that a mistake - maybe). It's uneventful until it's my sb again and I look down at 67s, the table folds to the button who flat calls for 600, I make up the other 300, the bb checks and we are 3 to the flop which come 579 rainbow. First to act I throw out 1500 and the bb folds but the button reluctantly calls. When a 6 hits the turn and the button checks I shove my remaining 8.5k and he beats me into the pot with a call. Now I'm thinking ffs the cunts got J8 or a set or something and nearly fall off my chair when he shows 34s - OMFG and so it continues.......
I thank him for relieving me of my chips with his superior play and sulk over to the roulette machine to finish my toasted tandoori panini, where I lose another £20. Havin thrown £60ish at the comp. I'm light about a ton and when first reserve on the cash table is looking like a long wait at 1.30am I decide to call it a night. However I'm pulled by an invisible force into a seat at the 3-card poker, which is a good pull as my £20 get-out-stakes punt turns into £110 and I leave about evens for the night - musn't grumble!!!

Will I ever win a tourney at DTD?
Went to DTD last night to play the 50+5.
The journey does my nut though as they are still fucking about with the M1 and there's a 50 stretch running into J26 which feels like your waiting to be shot while driving through treacle. There also was a stretch between J30 and J29 where they seemed to be a river running down the motorway, crazy weather!!! Due to these inconveniences I arrive just after 8pm, which isn't bad as I left my house in Sheffield at 7.15pm.
I have a fairly uneventful first 90 mins just managing to steal enough to stay level-ish, then pick up the pocket rockets in early to mid. A couple fold and the guy on my right raises from 200 to 600 and I make it 1500, he shoves and obviously I beat him into the pot with the rest of my chips. He flips KK and pipes up 'yeah I thought you had the aces' and it's all looking mine until the K hits the river - OMFG here we go again!
This leaves me with 450 chips, fuckin marvellous! Anyway to cut a short story even shorter I manage to get it back to 3500 then get down to 1750 and shove with 7T suited with the blinds at 150/300 and lose to AK.
I lick my wounds and go and sit on the 50p/£1 cash table where first hand I'm dealt KJ suited but decide not to raise the 1st hand. there is no raise and 4 of us go to the flop which comes J23 rainbow. The sb bets 2 and I make it 7, the others fold and the sb calls. The turn comes a 9 and we both check. The river comes another J and the sb bets out for a tenner! I make it £30 and he shoves for another £43. Now, I'm telling myself he's in the sb and it's screaming J2 J3 full house to me but I talk myself into the fact that I'd have to be really unlucky for him to have the other J and maybe he does have it but no the full house. Anyway, I finally talk myself into the call and of course he shows me J3 - why the fuck do I instantly know what they have then talk myself into calling - FFS go with your gut - DOHHHH!!!!!!!!
£80 down 1st hand, great start and then I throw the other £20 in with 77 against KK and have to buy another £100 in chips.
You have to work the cash tables though, it's no good expecting to play 30 mins and win big, sometimes it will happen but usually not. It did finally turn round after 3 hours and I walked away at 2.30am £172.50 to the good, which was a profit on the night of about £72.50 - a decent night out!
The drive home was fucked. I make my way down the A52 towards J25 of the M1 and get halfway there when the road goes to one lane then at the roundabout a diversion sign sends me virtually all the way back to the ring road before sending me 10 miles out of my way round Long Eaton - Useless fucking cuntie workmen!!!

A Country in Ruin!
It's a very gloomy outlook. Every time I get into a conversation with someone over a pint we find ourselves discussing how shit this country is and as taxpayers seriously how much we are getting right royally fucked up the shitter!!! The crunch is here it's financial doom and gloom on the horizon for the average Joe who pays his taxes and pays for every other cunt and his mother who can't be arsed to work, pretends to have a disability like idlecuntyitis or is a benefit tourist.
Well I have a 3-step plan which this government or the next set of puppets need to introduce or I'm packing my bags and joining the convicts down under.
Step 1 - Bring back national service and when certain cunts refuse on grounds that they are not British then shoot them or send them home!
Step 2 - Legalise, regulate and tax all drugs. This instantly cuts crime by 60%+ and the stupid amounts of money they spend on trying to bring down Tarquin the student selling weed to his mates to pay for his books and lentils!
Step 3 - Re-Nationalise all the industries that are daily necessities for average Joe, such as Fuel, Power and Water and Food and stop these cunts taking the piss. They don't even try and hide the fact now that they are making buckets of money and still robbing you blind.
Oh and shoot half the MP's and all the MEP's for taking the piss and being fiddling cunts. Why do we accept this as oh it's just another MP screwing us out of our over-taxed hard-earned cash (WANKERS!!!)
Rant over - Thanks for listening!
Went to DTD last week played the £50+5 fo, numbers are down as with everywhere and now it's announced after just opening to 7 nights a week they are reducing it back to 5. Went out with KK on the bb after raising the pot value when the button and sb flat called. they both called and I was fairly happy pushing in the 962 flop with 2 hearts after the sb checked. However the button calls my allin and then the sb reraises him allin - haha! The button has K3h flush draw and the sb has 92 suited - Don't' you just fuckin' love it!!!! The sb had been calling raises out of position all night with shit like that and getting rewarded, so maybe the experts don't know shit as I seem to get fucked like this every week? Did nothing on the cash either was £60 up then checked raised allin on a flop which had 36s on when I was holding 45s for £160 and unfortunately missed when 66 obviously obligingly called!!!
Went to naps in Sheffield last night, which gets worse every week, for the £10+1 rebuy. Numbers are down as with everywhere and they have laid off loads of staff so it's now self-deal. Did nothing there either but came out £40 to the good due to the roulette, so it was a free night out which can't be sniffed at!
Just one more thing. If anyone is thinking of playing Backgammon on Laddies for real money, please don't. Treat it like a radioactive Leper with AIDS and beat it to death with a big shitty stick. If that game is not fucking bent then I am the pint sized funky mofo that is JK from Jamiroqai (if that's how you spell it) and I can't decide which supercar I'm going to drive today!!!
Until the next depressing entry, I bid you farewell.
