Just a quick update
My biggest concern prior to the trip was me over indulging in all the good unhealthy foods, im happy to report that 2 weeks after i returned i weighed in and was exactly the same, and only gained a tiny bit of size on my gut.
So the lack of training and unhealthy eating didn't cause too much of a proble, i think all the walking helped.
The week after i returned i played a £550 event in London, made day 3 with good chips and busted in a bit of a fustrating hand (K10hh v AK on Jh 10x 5h Qc 9c) 4 hours into the day in 20th for £1800 (£60k up top)
I was ready to call on the rail from here if i made the FT as it was live streamed, and if i finished top 3 i would have been flying back to vegas for the main, but it wasnt too be.
KK v AA 3 off the money...river K ;-)
Also, these have been slowly selling and the funds are being put aside for my flight for next year...
Im off this week for a hospital appointment and then to play the biggest field event outside of Las Vegas in the Grovesner Goliath, £120 entry and 6 starting days...after the 2nd day (today) it already has met the £250,000 guarentee and is set to be over £600,000 prizepool. So there may be a trip report as im away for 5 days trying to make a day 2 and side events. I have missed writing up my day to day action, so might give it a go and i will link to it on here.
