THATS IT ON MY WAY

THATS IT ON MY WAY

No online poker all week as I look forward to St Kitts trip. Decided to give the Stanley Casino £20 Sunday night a whirl to mainly get tired out for the long haul. Decent field again and at the break and top up was happy with stack and the just short of £2000 pot giving £600 to winner. Only one major pot I was involved in when well stacked raised with JJ in early position to find 4 others get involved including 2 small stack all ins. JJ was best pre flop hand but a kq8 flop didnt look promising.Still betting but both checked and a 10 turn. Ck Ck brought 9 to give me straight. I pushed all in and the hesitation told me I would be lucky to get paid off so I was surpried with the extra 15k call and he showed 99 from river trips. Other 2 involved in hand showed ak and kq. Monsta pot was enuff to let me cruise abit into final table. Bit sorry for Barry " the rail " when well stacked on 50k plus pushed all in to a 20k raise for the guy to call and show JJ. Didnt help that I was dealing to turn the 3rd Jack on the river and Barry was gone. Game is so cruel at times.
Disappointed myself at final table in mad rush of 3 hands. Single raise faced large all in to have to fold. Raised in late position with KJ hearts to run into slow play KK then on BB my J6 clubs got 10 6 2 with 2 clubs. My bet of 12k faced big all in raise but I thought he was bluffing so called. he showed 10 2 which held up.
Home for 1.30 anyway with £80 for trip fund and a chance to maybe snatch a couple of hours kip. Getting picked up at 4.45 for flight to Gatwick. Please please please no trouble with flight as we are fkd if there is. Meet up with rest of squad hopefully at 8 for our 11.20 departure to St Kitts. Over and out now and Ill keep in touch during trip.
