Thurs - Friday

Badly stung last night when I got disconnected. I was playing the 7.5k guaranteed on Virgin and had around 11k in chips (blinds 500-1000). 40 got paid $39.50 upwards and 48 left in I was in 42nd. I picked up KK in 1st position and decided to limp as it was a very aggressive table, and I knew I would be doubled, trebled or out. No sooner had I called for 1000 I lost my connection! By the time I rebooted I had lost the 1000, and another 1000 for BB and 500 for SB and the antes so had just over 8000 left. What made it all the worse was 2 others had all inned and a 25k pot had been won on pp 77. So instead of being on around 34-5k ish and a comfortable 20th or so, I had 8k and was stone last......thank you Kingston Communications!!!!
Made a push from cut off position all had folded round to me as blinds went 1250-2500 with 10-J and was called by AK by SB,.....A on the flop...goodnight!

The worst time I lost connection was on PKR a coupla years ago. With 12 left I was in 2nd place and cutting up my table of 6, then i lost connection for 15 minutes!!! By the time i came back I was on the FT, with 2/3rds of my stack gone, and 8 left in, and was forced to push almost straight away. Finished 4th in the end for $660 but top prize was 3k or so and although a good score I felt I could have won it.



Mostly being playing Heads Up NL  games recently, and decided to play a few tonight on Virgin and mix them up with full table coolers to up my rake and V points, as its doubled on a friday. Started pretty badly, losing with KK twice in one heads up game, the lucky git spiking the river twice, once with an A and another when way behind he spiked a 2 outer 7 for trips. Lost around 3 games in a row, before I hit a purple patch and won around 6 or 7 on the bounce. This was the last game of the night HU, I checked the flop and the guy pushed all in....cheers mate!!
