Bad Day
I felt like Mike Matusow today. I started off playing cash games, 20/40 NL and some 10/20 NL and got off to a real bad start. Then this tournament started so I entered it and once I was last 10 or so I stopped my cash tables where I was down a lot to focus on the tournament.
I worked out how much I was down and figured out I needed top 2 to break even, lol. I didn't make it but I sure felt like Matusow who said in an interview :-
MK: Still, a million dollars is a pretty good score.
MM: I needed to make one of the top three places [for it to matter]. Number nine doesn’t mean anything to me. It just enables me to pay off a few markers.
Haha, ok not quite on the same scale but hey a nano version =)
Seriously though? Can you ever imagine yourself in the World Series of Poker at the start of Day 1 knowing you have to get through 5500 players and finish in the top 3 just to break even for your troubles? =)

Im curious what site do you usually play? I've never heard of that ladbrokes site, is it a skin?
In your blog you said you played on stars...but I dont see u on, and they dont have 20/40 NL :P, and neither does party.
is there any significant skill difference between the sites you play on?
Wondering what your favortie poker client to play on is?

Maybe next year. Maybe next decade.
Matusow is a fucking loser.
Matusow isn't a loser, really (he did get to final table through 5k+ players). He's very liked guy in poker circles too. Plus he's entertaining to watch.
And ladbroker's looks like a Prima skin, but dunno(?).
Ha! i go to ladbrokes.com and the poker section and what do i see?
"Now Playing: 1337 players on 133 tables"
geeked out about that, sorry.
Ladbrokes poker use the same software( microgaming) as Prima poker but they are not a skin of Prima.
They are totally independento f any other poker site. well they are the biggest bookmaker in europe
Ladbrokes is a UK site. It is not available to American players. They have been around for quite some time.
"a nano version". :)
Nice one Iain.
