Home Game - Jet Lagged

I feel totally spaced out after the mammoth home game I hosted this weekend, which has completely messed up my body clock. The tournaments started at 12pm on Saturday lunchtime, and the cash game ended at 3pm on Sunday afternoon - a 27 hour session. Some way short of some of the records set by Gus Hansen, but draining nonetheless.

I won the Main Event, bubbled the Omaha and had a small win in the cash game. Debbie beat McDee in the heads up final (which cost Baron Bookmakers £320), Rhys and Mark S chopped turbo and Sir Mike beat Jalfont and Mark S in the Omaha. Shazbo appeared to be the big cash winner, finishing up about £500

I bided my time in the 15k stack Main Event. I was crippled down to 4k at the first break after a squeeze play gone wrong, trebled up with a monster hand where my set morphed into a house, but arrived at the final table pretty short stacked with 25k (I think McDee and Jalfont were playing about 80k stacks). Honest Dave was absolutely hammered, and shoved for 30k with K4o UTG and managed to knock out Sir Mike and Mark S, before committing poker suicide.

I slowly built my stack up to average, before knocking out Shazbo (AK v AQ) and McDee (A10 v 33) which left me heads up with Jalfont with about a 2-1 chip defecit. Our heads up went on for about 90 minutes and 6 levels, before I finally got the chips after the professor had slow played TT and I hit an Ace on the turn.

A great weekend of poker, but I am pretty exhausted now, so won’t be playing for the next few days as I need a rest.

The next game will be Thursday for the Loose Cannon League, before a busy week of tournaments the following week:
Weds: City 100 Deepstack (£100)
Thurs: LC League (£50)

Fri: Gutshot Omaha (£150)
Sat: Gutshot Open Main Event (£500)
