I do enjoy what he has to say often though. Got some interesting points to make about site selection and BvB defence frequencies which have made me think quite a bit about my game. It's just always so blunt!!!

You've learned from what i have said. Look at youfaill he has 12k bull**** posts and he still hasnt learned much. Butthugging and asslicking doesnt help. Mistakes, humiliation and truths = possitive things for most people with any kind of mental development above downs.

online circlejerks are the equivalent of no screaming & no negativity parenting. 1 kid out of 100 turns out amazing and the rest are a bunch of tard****s with stds @ 12 yo. (and it helps scammers get positive recognition to pull a big heist without having much work to do since everyone is trying to be best bros)

When i go overboard its just me having fun or channeling my anger from some kunt whos swung the other way before making a turn on the road or something like that. Its rarely personal and i think a lot of people find it funny anyways.

I'm gunna make a proper post later on for weekend updates but just wanted to drop in to say that my good friend and RIO pro coinflip_si has just started coaching.

If you have watched any of his videos or seen him play you'll know hes probably the best small and micro stakes full ring coach about right now. Couldn’t recommend him more so please check out his thread!

yoooooo long time no post! Been a busy boy at the festival and feel like i've only just recovered... Was an awesome weekend, the weather was unbelievable the whole time with the smallest amount of rain in the short period of when we were sleeping!

Here are some photos:

The gang in our munchkin outfits (the theme for the festival was The Wizard of Oz):



lol we tried to fit in this weird hole (cue gay uk jokes) in these massive hay bails. Smb and coinflip giving it a go. Managed to get a random girl all the way in which was an awesome achievement!



Charlotte and I:



and one of the lot of us in one of the dance tents:



All in all a fantastic trip, we're thinking of going to Glastonbury next year which would be really sick. Grinding has taken a back burner and there's now only 1 day left of the month. I think i've broken even for like 2 weeks now.

I just finished making my 2nd video for card runners and it's a live sweat. Will be up soon so please check it out!

Will put a good grind in tomorrow and try finish the month strong. There's a couple other things that i'm gunna do this month. Namely playing the GUKPT in Reading on Friday (£500 buy in) so if any of you guys are playing it too then hit me up and we can grab some food or a drink. Lastly i'm gunna be taking a visit to Germany this month to visit a couple of good poker friends of mine - JVL_STARRR69 and bigchiefds. Been meaning to go visit for a long time and it's finally going to happen. If there are any german regs who read this and wanna meet up then let me know!

gl at the tables guys

July is over and it's been great to bounce back after last months downswing.

          So I've got a table full of middle aged wannabee pros with the only young guy to my left. As he joined the table I asked 'are you seat 9?' to which he replied, 'I can see you're seat 8 can't I?'. Since then he has 3b 100% of my opens. Swell chap.

          Anyway I won a decent hand straight away. Opened 67cc to 3x (150) get 3b by him to 350 and cold call out of BB. I obv come along. Flop 5c3c8h. Check check he bets 550 call from bb I decide to call as well. Turn Qh check check 1150 fold I call again. River 4s lalala, check, bet 3150, I jam for like 15 or something (maybe should make it 8k but meh. He tanks for a while and folds.
