For England, David and St George! 2009 EPO Champ Returns to Defend Crown
06 September 2010
Often when you have success it seems like an out of body experience, you get a rush of confidence as well as the modern form of flattery copious amounts or Facebook friend’s requests. Fame was fleeting and reality followed quickly when I was two outed in the WSOPE main event after 2 hours of play. The EPT London was better and I cashed 66 out of 750. Worked my way through a tough field only to be felled by a guy from Costa Rica who listening to loud music on his massive headphones failed to notice my shove pre flop and announced ALL IN. I was holding K8 suited on the button he flipped K2 and in true online style the 2 of spades was good enough to bust me. I thought for a 5K buy in I expected a certain type of professionalism.
I finished 13th in the GUKPT Blackpool and haven't played much since so I'm hungry and ready to pull it all together on September 11th Day 1. Funny but I feel like I'm gone win again, well I always do. Maybe lady Luck isn't a one trick pony.
I didn’t go to Vegas this year as the thought of three weeks away from my 6 year old son was difficult. I'll collect the bracelet next year.
See you in London
