Won one of the weekly freerolls for $135 and a seat in the final. Top 6 (of 71) in that final got to where I am right now.

Thats class,I'm not old enough yet to play in the big games so i'm stuck playing in the pubs, which is fine as they give me a bit of experience in playing Tournament style poker.It was a big shock for me when I realised the difference between playing in your gaf with the lads and playing in a tournament with strangers.Its totally different.

I'm in that. No, I can't lend you any money.

I've been on TV. Several times. So has Tom. Big deal!

ive been on tv 2 times!

Just got back from the filming. $8,000 richer. No, I still can't lend you any money.

I'm going to look fucking awful on TV, after being told "wear what you like", on goes the NG hat, but I was later asked to remove it (looks crap on TV, apparently), so I've got awful hat hair through the entirety of it.

3rd place eh? Still pretty damn cool to get $8,000.

Okay, so you can't loan us money, but how about you just buy in the beer?

Awesome! Good luck!

What are you gonna do with the $8,000 JT?

Too bad i'm in the US otherwise I would be calling your opponents to tell them when your bluffing or not.
How would we know wich one is you though?

Poker, my favourite sport. Good luck man

How much of your winnings are you going to gamble?

1) Kill overdraft
2) Arrange holiday in US next summer to coincide w/mod meet
3) Use the rest to justify not needing to work during next academic year

I might drop about $500 into Pokerstars to play the $4/180 man tourneys, but they've just finished a deposit bonus so I can't get full value just yet.
