Nice pot for 0.25/0.50!

Party Poker - About a week ago I thought that it would be good crack to play private online cashgame against people I know. I am aware that this can be -EV if the players I'm playing against players that I know are good players, but for the crack. I searched different sites and only found Party Poker that accepts private cash games. I already had an account on their but never really played it as I was never keen. So I decided to stick a cheeky £80 that I transfered from my Devilfish account on there and see if I can get a cashgame going.

Fuck It - Ive never had time to organise a private game on there since but asked a few people on NPF (Newcastle Poker Forum) they seemed interested but think I chose a wrong time. Oh well Fuck it i'll just play 0.25/0.50 (my usual online game) after work for a couple of hours everyday (this is also the regular routine). Ive been running really well grinding it out and slowly increasing my inital £80 deposit and yet to go broke at a table.

Nice Pot for 0.25/0.50 - This morning I continued my usual routine playing two cash tables at 0.25/0.50 and within 20mins I sat with $79 and $66 respectively then a monster hand happened on one of the tables. (thavarz)

SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!

This was a nice pot and a welcome one. Looking back the $4 call on the flop looks loose but this player was continuation betting %100 of the time and knew if i made it he would pay me off he has connected with anything wasnt expecting the treble up tho. Great turn. lol.

So decent morning as I continue to run good with over £400 so far.
