Over Killed


Realized my bank details were being stored on the casino account I opened to mess around with roulette so I phoned them up to get my account closed. The guy couldn't understand why, even when I told him his site had too many nasty popups (which some people have reported). I was running late for work so I said sod it I'll apply to get it closed via email. Not thinking, I said I have a massive gambling problem and have been advised to close all my accounts (mistake!). I recieved a very long and compassionate email explaining where I can and should get help and as a result of my destructive addiction I have now been banned from using all their software for life! Ooops! I wouldn't mind the casino side of it but this also includes Pacific Poker. Looks like I'll have to use one of my other email, and bank accounts to get round that. Oh well, lesson learned.
Whats really jarred me this week is the fact that I cant play any poker at all this week (except freerolls) due to my bank's totall and utter incompetence. Had to change the date my rent goes out by 3days this month. My landlord must really love me now coz in their ultimate wizdom they paid him twice. This has put me £300 into the red. Obviously I phoned and complained, but they said although I shouldn't get any fines they can't do anything till Monday. So I'm sposed to work 12hour shifts on thin air? And whats this shouldn't get any fines rubbish? If I do I'm going straight down my branch and dialling 999 to report a robbery!
On a lighter note, managed to get into the 7am freeroll rebuy on Blue Sq. Cant believe how popular that is. Thought I might have competition entering so waited till the second registration opened, and clicked in. Within 2 minutes flat 1000 people had registered. Wow! It starts in 45 minutes and I'm actually really looking forward to it, due to the total lack of poker recently.
Oh yeah, busted out of the £2 last night in 55th. Flat called in mid pos with KJo. Lots of callers. Flop 56J rainbow. Check to me. I bet the pot and got one caller (button). With no preflop raising I know he doesn't have AJ and he's quite a loose player so I put him on a srt8 draw. Turn 2. I bet half the pot. He flat calls. Now I am a bit worried he's on two pair. River J. I make a suck bet hoping for a call. He pushes and I have him covered so I call (reckless? but pot commited imo). He shows J2. Ouch!
Was in the top 20 but now busted down to just 500 chips. I get KK and jam utg and get 3 callers. Dont know what they had but I get beat by A9o who hits the A on the river and thats it for me.
Really need to win one of these £2 jobbies. Thats half a weeks wages if I do. Dream Dream Dream but at least keepin the stakes down for a bit. Got in off a freeroll anyway. While teachin a mate how to play as well. Maybe I need to be a little less creative at the lower stakes. Text book poker all the way. Hopefully this Blu Sq freeroll will add some funds to the DrunenMonk's breadroll.
Keep it real!
