Jokerstars Rant.....

If I had to just play online poker all the time I would have to top myself. This is my exit path from half a million chips to out in the $5 turbo rebuy $15k gtd....

The blinds are big so its allin or pass basically....

Hand 1 - JJ v 99 I flop my set and 99 makes a 4 card flush on the river

Hand 2 - AQ v 89 & 78 I flop my Q but they both make a straight

Hand 3 - I run AJ into a short stacked AA

Hand 4 - A8 v KQ I flop the 8 and he turns the K (same guy as JJ v 99)

Hand 5 - Finally I'm allin for just over one BB utg with AJ suited and the bb has T5 off, The flop comes 789 and of course I'm going to hit my J, what else would happen......Boooom there it is on the river, thanks for coming!!!

I did ask the 99/KQ guy if he ever got his chip in infront but no response was forthcoming!

Is there any wonder I can never win at Jokerstars, they don't even attempt to make the bullshit creative, as soon as you see your opponents cards you know what beat is coming your way!!!

Rant over.......

Royal Ascot - Day 4

Apologies for no blog yesterday but I didn't have time and was too excited about Bapak Chinta potentially winning the 1st race and the rest of the day being a party.

I have however thoroughly studied today and it's it couldn't be easier, so here's my thoughts:

2.30 Inetrobil 6/1 (p)

Lilys Angel 12/1 (p) e/w

3.05 World Domination 8/1

Glens Diamond 10/1 (p)

3.45 Theyskens Theory 5/1 (NB) (p)

4.25 Green Destiny 7/4 (nap) (p)

5.00 Eternal Heart 7/1 (p)

Halifax 7/1 (p)

5.35 Our Jonathon 8/1 (p)

Excellent Guest 20/1 (p)

I don't like the favourite in the 1st but I may have slipped up there, I'm just not a fan when they've only run at dodgy tracks in Ireland. I have a thing about World Domination it was 20's antepost for the Derby and came into 7/2 then they pulled it when it ran badly against Carlton House recently over 1m2f. It was so impressive on it's debut over todays distance I've had to have a big bet on it.

Theyskens Theory I am very bullish about that's why it's my NB. I had a tip for Green Destiny and I don't think it can lose to be honest which pushes it up my nap of the day. As for the last 2 races once again it's pinstickers paradise time and I can see these two being the pisspot busters.

Royal Ascot - Day 2

Moderate success yesterday with my nap of the day coming home and doubling it with Frankel, but as usual with the big meetings you feel inclined to have a bet on every race and your profit gets easily pissed away on e/w punts.

A win is still a win though so without further ado let's move on to day 2's selections:

2.30 Codemaster 15/8 (nap) (p)

3.05 I'm a Dreamer 4/1 (p) (NB)

Seta 5/1 (p)

3.45 So You Think 1/2 (p)

Twice Over 14/1 (e/w)

4.25 Eton Forever 14/1 (p)

Start Right 7/1 (p)

Brick Red 25/1 (p)

5.00 Shumoos 5/4 (p)

5.35 Rougette 14/1 (p)

Humdrum 11/2 (p)

I have doubled Codemaster with Shumoos 5/1 and also included So You Think for a treble 8/1

I'm not sure what's happening with Twice Over, I have won bundles of money on that horse but it appears to be out of form at the moment. However if it's back to form it will give So You Think a good run for the money and that's why I'm having it e/w 14's is a ridiculous price!

The 4.25 is the pisspot buster and to be honest it was too much for me to work out.

Royal Ascot - Day 1

After being tipped about 'Medici Time' on Friday and it duly obliging at 25/1 my sportsbook bankroll is looking at lot healthier (Well anything above zero is a start!) This new found wealth enables me to have a dabble at Royal Ascot, so without further ado here are my selections:

2.30 Canford Cliffs 5/4 (p) (nap)

Rio De La Plata 25/1 (e/w)

3.05 Sole Power 8/1 (p)

Tangerine Trees 20/1 (p) (e/w)

3.45 Frankel 1/3 (p)

Neebras 66/1 (e/w)

4.25 Brocklebank 16/1 (p)

Fulbright 18/1 (p)

Mezmaar 5/1 (p)

Power 5/1 (p)

5.00 Junior 4/1 (p) (NB)

Zigato 9/2

5.35 Magic City 10/1 (p)

Canford Cliffs is my nap of the day, it would have been Frankel but the price is pointless on it's own. Canford Cliffs always does just enough to win and I can't see that changing today, I don't even like the challenger Goldikova and have therefore disregarded it. I have also doubled Canford and Frankel for a tasty 3/1. Rio De Le Plata is way better than 25/1 and is therefore an e/w must.

In the 3.05 Sole Power won a class 1 over the distance at York and I believe they have been just giving it some run outs since with a view to winning this. Tangerine Trees is way better than 20/1 and again is an e/w must.

Frankel can't lose, so obviously we need to look for a good e/w punt and I like nothing else on the card other than 'Neebras' and I liked it at 100's but 66/1 is still massive.

The 4.25 is a pinstickers paradise so feel free to shut your eyes and and stab yourself in the hand, or you can have some of the four I've listed.

Junior is great on the flat or over the sticks and won over this distance here last year, which is why it's my Next Best and it will definately get a place, it always does!!!

Although the 5.35 looks like a minefield I have studied it profusely and 'Magic City' looks the best class in the bunch.
