The Lever
The lever took some hammer tonight. With some horrendous beats I somehow managed to get to the last three of the Flashmob tonight, facing up against MC and Sillyfish. Once there though the cards came and with some well applied aggression managed to take it down. Very happy with the way I played three handed.
First Flashmob win for about 3 months after a terrible run which included 3 bubble finishes. Thats my 4th win now, and although I am bound to play as many as most players, the next best is 2 wins, so I have now put a gap between me and the rest.

Virgin Poker
I always have liked Virgin Poker, so I thought I would add some banners ;o)
Not sure how to get them ony at the top and not after every post, but I'll work on it.
They also have a Bloggers Freeroll on Thursday which will be good, I think the 1st prize is a seat at one of the sub events at the WSOP. Edit: I didnt win the tournament so I have cut down the amount of banners, but thanks anyway.

Fellow Forumites + Big Slick Poker Club
Okay, had a great day/night out on Tuesday (/Wednesday, lol), visiting betfair towers and having a look at some new software they will be introducing at some point in the future. Not much I can say about the software itself, but the I can tell you what happened on the day and record it for posterity in blogland.
Arrived and the hotel (courtesy of betfair) just after lunch which was a bit early but it gave me the opportunity to get some well earned( and as it turned out, well advised) rest. Betfair had advance me some expenses which more than covered the travel into london and back which was also a bonus. Woke up rested and went down to the bar at about 3pm and soon met up with Mandylou, Duffs and Ewan. A few pints of Guinness later, Mavis, Ruru and then Zelda turned up, shortly followed by Ariston. Shaaboom turned up last as he had just come from the airport and there we all were the "Forum Council"
After a few more pints and a "short" walk to Betfair towers, we did what we went to do for an hour or so, with free nibbles and beers in the demo room of Betfair Poker. Then it was mount up in the Betfair provided taxis for a hectic trip through early evening traffic down to Croydon to visit a new poker room called Big Slick. Its a great club and I was thoroughly impressed with the whole evening there. We all registered for a £20 rebuy and then got stuck into the free bar (courtesy of Betfair), so had shed loads more Guinness. My table in the rebuy consisted of 3 x unknown, Ruru, Mavis, Ariston and Mandylou! Ariston decided he was going to be all in blindevery handd until he lost a hand from which point he "would play properly". He managed to bust Ruru a couple of time and Mavis the same. Eventually after he built a might stack of about 18k (started at 1500), he lost a hand and settled down. I then managed to doubled up against him and went on to build a stack of about 7k and the end of the rebuy period, after an add on.Eventually gott down to the last 9 buy was fairly short stacked so when a pair of 6s came along I stuck them in and got called by KQ who spiked a K on the flop. Out in 8th of about 24 for nothing. Mandylou bubbled which left on Duffs in the money and I think he came 4th.
I didnt bother play cash as 1.Its not my game and 2.I was not wanting to get into pots of about £70 to £140 on a regular basis. Sat between Ruru and Shaaboom, who obviously get on well but seemed to be having a few problems on the night, funny to watch though as they were like a pair of unruly kids in class. Mavis and Ewan were also playing on the same table and they were good to watch as both seem to be great cash players.
Eventually we left the club about 5 and got back to the hotel via Betfair funded mpvs, getting into the hotel for about 6. Got a couple of hours kip before catching the train home, getting in about 10am, very very very tired.
Great day for me, and great to meet a few other forum members who were all terrific people - all way above my level of poker - which was never and issue for them on the day. Very enjoyable and thanks betfair, we should do it again sometime!

Betfair Night Out/Month End
Its been a week or so since I last blogged so I thought I would put a quick post up as an update.
Firstly, the flashmob didnt get up and running tonight as we only had 9 players at the cut off time so it got cancelled,big shame, hope they keep going, and there were a few of the regulars missing. We had an impromptu flashmob game instead, old stylee, and got 9 out of 10 players in the game. I think I ended up about 5th or 6th after trying to push snap of a pot with 7 3 off. Anybody else I would not have been involved, and vice versa, anyone else snap may well have folded. Lesson learned. So if you are reading snap, I promise never try to nick your chips again okay? ;o)
Got a night out on Tuesday as part of the betfair forum council, got an email out of the blue from ruru at betfair asking if I would be interested in testing their upcoming new software. Looking forward to it a lot and to meeting the other 9 betfairers who are going. Some I have met before and some I have never heard of but they are all v good players, so I am not sure why I am going! I have to sign a non-disclosure agreement, so cant tell you how I get on with the testing but will report in on how the day went when I get back.
Monthly accounts are done and I am £123.44 up for the month putting me up to just over £1300 in the bank to play with. Good to get back to winning month.

Nasty Man!
Was playing a few £1 stts with my mate sav tonight and as I sat down at a table Robert174 sys out of the blue "cairns you are sh1te at this". Took me back a bit it did to say the least. I thought he must have been looking at my sharkscope stats and would obviously be a succesful players himself, heres his stats:
Robert174
373 games played
$-2 ave profit
$3 ave buy in
-69% ave ROI
$-989 Profit
LLLLLLLL Current Form
Apparently he has seen me play a few times and doesnt rate me. Well I'm no pro, but if I was ever losing nearly £600 I would consider jacking it all in. People in glasshouses shouldnt throw stones. He went out before me but I went out in 5th for no money, perhaps I am sh1te after all.

Betfairs Loss is My Gain
Betfair software was playing up last night (again), so loaded up the Sporting Odds software for some saturday night fun. Ended up only playing 3 stt's but managed to win all three. Two $10s and a $5. Now its not unusual to cash in three in a row but for me to win them outright is something I don't think I have done very often. Usually I end up playing "just one more game" and losing, but not last night - mainly due to being knackered and nodding off during the last of the three games.
Hopefully, the Betfair software will be okay tonight for the flashmob game as I need to avenge last weeks result when I bubbled (4th out of 21). My game seems suited to the flashmob games at the moment and a bit of luck just at the right time never does any harm (organisers priveledge). I have consistently finishing high up the positions recently. Look out for me going out first tonight then!
Still searching for the eight man for Team Flashmob, there have been plenty of volunteers, mostly, I guess, trying not to miss out on the action on what should be a great night/weekend in September. Plenty of time to get the last man (or indeed woman I suppose). Spiderman, Noonday Minstrel, Easter 1916, and whiteartlane are volunteers at the moment. I think waiting for the list of confirmed players at the main event might be the best bet.

Month End
March was a losing month for me overall, ending £19.12 down, with about £1200 in the bankroll its not such an issue. However, its only the 2nd ever losing month I have ever had and it doesnt feel good. Played too many MTTs I think so in April I will be back to the STT circuit in ernest.
Update on Team Flashmob for BFWCOP II; MC Roller cant make it and kfw has had a identity crisis and changed his name. Big shout to Smart Money who has offered to sponsor the team and provide the team kit, with names etc on it. Nice one. Steviep, UKGatsby, and Shalimah are all deffo not available, but I have had plenty of interest from elsewhere. Redcar if you are coming back for it then the 8th spot is obviously yours, just say the word. Latest team in no particular order is:
ajcairns
snap
Smart Money
boro_fc (aka kfw)
doob
dibble
MiltonBadley
+1
Having an STT fest today on PaddyPower and Betfair,playing anywhere from $3 to $20 6 and 10 seaters. Not going to bad at the mo.

Bubblemobbed
Bubbled in the flashmob this week which was a "quality not quantity" night with some decent non regular plays in the mix. The regulars managed to outlast them all and wp to MiltonBadley for the win, best you save the winnings for BFWCOP II my man.
Redcar came a v creditable 2nd and UKGatsby again in the money in 3rd (wp). He's getting good at this game.
See you all next week.

Flashmobbers of the World Unite
Right guys, its time the Flashmob kicked some butt.
Arrangements are being made for BFWCOP II which will take place about the 2nd weekend in September, so you have plenty of time to save up for it. Entry will probably be £100 + £10 which is usually way over my budget. However, I am going to save up and pay my own way this year after getting sponsored for the first event by the Total Poker crew.
Looks like there may be a team element to it so I am proposing we get a few of the regular flashmobbers together and take the world by storm. Let me know either here or on the Betfair forum if you would (or wouldnt) be interested.
Update:
Currently, me, Doob, KFW, Smart Money and MiltonBadley(harayir), snap and maybe MC Roller and StevieP have declared an interest in playing for the team. Anyone else?

Close but no Cigar at Cheltenham
Very poor Festival for me - with zero, yep, zero winners. Never happened before but perhaps its because I have not followed the season as much as I used too. I've missed a fair few of the big races in the build up which usual provide you with some of the critical information that you need to pick the winners at the festival. That said I have had a fair few places at some decent prices which has stopped me from completely doing my conkers and I've ended up about even!
Day 1
6 horses backed, 0 winners, 2 places (28/1, 14/1)
+4.5pts
Day 2
6 horses backed, +20 e/w doubles, 0 winners, 1 place (11/2)
-7.6pts
Day 3
8 horses backed, 0 winners, 4 places (8/1, 14/1, 5/1, 5/1)
-2.5pts
Day 4
6 horses backed, 0 winners, 3 places (16/1, 12/1, 10/1)
+6.5pt

The weekend again, Cheltenham and a diary
Back for the weekend again but next week I aint going back to work as I have to go for a course down in Hampshire for two days, then I'm off Wednesday afternoon until next week. Perfect timing as its the Cheltenham Festival, where I'll be visiting on Thursday with my mate Sav. If any of you reading this are going, give me a shout and you can buy me a Guinness if you like.
This weekend for a change I have decided to keep a complete record of all the games I play s this list will grow as the weekend progresses. The list will consist of game/position out of total players/profit or loss, so here goes:
Friday Evening
City AM Freeroll on Betfair - 114/116 = -£0
$10 stt on SO - 1/10 =+$39
$10 stt on Virgin - 3/10 = +$9
Saturday Morning
£2 mtt on Betfair - 16/84 = -£2.25

No win in the flashmob, this week
Came a decentish 5th in the flashmob tonight despite knocking 3 out on the ft, finished off a good weekend at home, with the family and playing online. Won a few stt's (including a $20 one on Sporting Odds), so will have made a bit of a profit.
See you all next week.

Guess Who's Back and its time to bubble
Back again for the weekend - see you at the tables, and I will stay up later playing this weekend. Done the accounts for Feb and I was 210 up, another good month.
Its the Blue Square Bubble Freeroll on Sunday, so I better try and qualify so I can defend my title. Update: Just played the first 10c turbo 6 seater and won it (broke through the bubble with 6k in chips so went for the win), but managed to win it in 15 hands. Dam just looked and entries had to be in for 12 pm today, arrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhh.
