Thoughts of Rup: December 2005
http://rupertpok.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 26, 2005. The last time I posted I was about to play a comp on GetMinted. I think I played pretty solidly, I came 2nd and took home 330 quid, next day I played it again and won it! It definately put me back on track and since then I did well in a pretty big Ladbrokes tournament for over $1k and having won a seat for $13 to the $500 30 on Stars, I came 22nd and took just shy of $2.5k. Cash at the WPT event in Bahamas. Start keeping records other than my bank statement! Sort out my money.

Friday, April 28, 2006. Posted by Rupert at 4/28/2006 12:27:00 pm. Saturday, April 08, 2006. London, Leeds, Life. The last ever North London derby at Highbury, it's gonna be special. I played really tight at Gutshot, just playing the pony cash game which the usual faces. It was all going well until I lost my stack of 80 with QQ vs AA. It was annoying, because I knew he had it as well. Very hard to fold those hands still for me. Should have trusted my instincts more. Anyway, good luck to everyone planning...

Thoughts of Rup: October 2005

Sunday, October 30, 2005. Did my weekly trip to Gutshot on Friday for the 10 rebuys. The tournament was pretty boring, got to 3000 chips from the initial 500 by taking flops cheap and hitting lots. A couple of 50/50s lost set me back and I decided to go out just before the end of the rebuy period at damage of 20. I knew I was in big trouble, Jimmy who was last to act said he hoped one of us had Aces. I showed them, he showed 99, and the other guy showed 97. Posted by Rupert at 10/30/2005 03:22:00 pm.

The life of a poker player ME! Friday, September 22, 2006. Another Win at Big Slick! The Rebuy period was crazy as ever with a few blind all in! I get AQ and double up early on but eventually lose it all by calling away up chips with small suited connectors. Got involved in a 4 way all in with 67 on a flop of 7 5 4 up against 85, JJ and 55s, I had outs but they all missed but a J hit on the river giving a newbie a lot of chips! She bets out though! She cannot have a set can she? That would be sooooo sick!

The life of a poker player ME! Saturday, March 24, 2007. The Pros Favourite Starting Hand’ Hmmmmm? You call a raise and the flop comes Ac Kh 9h. Did your day get a lot better? Or have you walked into trouble? The quote on the title refers to the pros who love their suited connectors as well as a lot of bad good and very good players. Everyone likes to see the 67 of clubs and everyone starts to dream about the endless possibilities that may come up on the flop. Tournaments and Suited Connectors. Also will...

The life of a poker player ME! Wednesday, November 29, 2006. High Stakes Poker Warwick Style! HSWP (High Stakes Warwick Poker). The game was set! We had ten players in the game and even someone on the waiting list. Just a quick note I will and cannot go into too much detail about certain hands and moves taken place in the cash game. Most of the players in play last night read my blog and it certainly an EV play for me to reveal all my thoughts about the game. Sorry. Seat 1 Guv, Seat 2 Dhruv (me! More lik...

We head down get some food and put our names down for the Cash Game, Blinds are 1/ 1 and all the games were pot limit, But it was dealer choice, normally I hear that and it’s a mix of Omaha and Holdem but this was very difficult! Better known as 6 card Omaha! Not jus flops but the turn and the rivers! Dave tangled in a few re raised pots, where I would fold almost anything! Didn’t want to ga...

The life of a poker player ME! Wednesday, January 31, 2007. Warwick High Stakes Poker - 3. Warwick High Stakes Poker Episode Three. Ok the Game was set up for the 3rd time, we had 11 players ready to play with Dave Lu acting as a substitute as Jambon was running late. Line up was in seat order Dhruv ( I hate seat one! The 1st hand I pick up KKs and Mitesh makes the gay raise (min raise) to 1. He s clearly just messing about as it is the 1st hand, although normally min raise = AAs! And I get re raised!
