About Me

Kildare Town, Kildare, Ireland
I started this blog because of my intrest in Poker ... but then I realised I could also use it to show off some of my photos and even add more pages when i find something else im interested in..

Why online poker

So why did I start playing poker online............. Well I got curious after seeing Poker night live on telly (a show dedicated to online poker , no longer showing ) so i thought I would try it out not thinking I would be as intrested in playing poker as I am . Now I play whenever I can , I love the ups and downs .. well not the downs so much ..... of poker , And I really love when I win a tournament and make a lot of money.......................... and yes I do win , not all the time , but I win more than I loose , so its a hobby I can make money from ............. now isnt that the best sort of hobby to have.

Why a blog

Hi I decided to creat a blog for a couple of reasons , firstly to attract more people to a web site i am putting to gether , So you can say this is a form of advertising for my web site.
And also to have somewhere to write about my poker experiences.
And to show some photos (I also like photography as a hobby, but i have done some work for money too, eg a few weddings , and lots of photo shoots, anyway hope you like the photos I get to put up. )

Omaha rebuy

What can I say my morning game of Omaha over again ,..... another 8th place...just outside the money again (top 5 get paid ) but it was a good game , no bad mistakes i can think of ..... had one lucky hand got 9,A,A,J ( DIDN'T THINK OF WRITING DOWN THE SUITS) I remember the A,J were suited....... the first player to act raises two times the big blind , the next couple of players fold , I reraise the pot limit ( To hopefully make the next two players fold , which happens) he reraises all in and I called, He has 9,A,A,Q ..........PRACTICALLY THE SAME HAND AS ME,..... I thought split pot ........flop came 5,10,Q nothing to worry about there, then came ...Q....... oh oh I'm in big trouble now he has trip Qs ...........There is not much I can hit to win this hand .....in fact I have to hit a 8 or a K ..........and guess what comes on the river a K , got out of that nicely and got a big pot of chips.
