Return of the Nedi.....
This Month's Action.....
More technical difficulties and serious dose of writers block is the reason for the lack of updates. Highlights from previous weeks include Gordo getting a run of spoons and some dirty-bad rivers, resulting in the a dose of the yips.
A few weeks "me" time is prescribed for the fella as he hangs up the visor, lights a few scented candles and calls on his old friend "George the sock" for a couple of team talks.
Other than that Raff finds his killer streak that made the Germans so famous and takes two scalps off of Dougie the self confessesed "second spot assassin".
This weeks action......
After a hard weekend with the Irwin Brothers in Blackpool, and a heavy mid-week fitba schedule, Gregor takes a week of the game to recover.
Seven heads don the spring/summer '09 collection and head for the smell of money. Doug, Raff, Jason, Gordo, Myself, Colin and a fresh Satellite form the line up and after a brief presentation of a "Tesco's Finest Cheese Platter" to commemorate the birthing of Gordo the game gets underway.
I run into a few hands V the satellite with kicker problems who takes the spoon in the end with two pair V my straight. Right moves at the wrong time for the fella. Rafferty tries to recover a few chips lost in earlier battles and pushes all in with a flush draw, I call with top pair, hitting trips to send the big man off to light the candle of Gordo's birthday cake.
The birthday boy gets lucky as Colin pushes all in with AQ, Gordo calls with A4 hitting the four. Dougie is next to feel the Birthday backlash with and pure binary flop Doug pushes all in, running into G's poker.
Three way, Myself Jason and Gordo, all three passing the chips about all night but go into the affair with me slight lead on Gordo and Jason on the short stack. The battle for the bubble goes on for 2 rounds of blinds now 15-30, taking its toll on my ever dwindling stack and getting re-raised at every turn a final push is made with K4 off and 100 chips. Jason calls with the J's and its another bubble for my ever increasing collection.
Heads up in an epic battle, Jason searching for the first victory of the season and Gordo trying to lay to rest the demons of previous weeks. Jason takes a monster before a push all in with A10 V Gordo's QJ. The flop shines A 10 and Jason takes it down! removing himself from negative equity in the process.
Till next week.....
I'm forever blowing bubbles.......
